Holy shit!  Texas is AWESOME!  LOVE the speed limit! . .   And the food so far.   BBQs everywhere, and FRESH meat!

I was in Austin last night, tonight in Victoria, and back to Austin tomorrow.

Ready for a nap.  Oh wait, 90 commute home instead. 

Funny. I’m getting to the age where I need power naps.

 Most of I-15 in Utah is 80 mph speed limit. 

Had driven through Montana also when they had no speed limit. The signs read “drive a safe and prudent speed”

So far the cheer team is in first, out of 16 teams! The final competition is today.

Hopefully the cheer competition went well.

I need new speakers for the house, went and saw the Bohemian Rhapsody movie in the theater.  I was grumpy that I couldn't feel the kickdrum in a movie about a rock band.  I told Ashley this and her comment was that 'you can feel the kickdrum with speakers?'.  Oh my, I've failed.  Time for something other than the 4" full rangers.

Almost like my FIL did it. His house which is my wife and I's now. He loved decorating for every holiday and Christmas was his favorite.

[Tirefryr 1,742]

Good to see you're keeping with tradition.

[topgun 262]

Looks great!

[nem 2,019]

Thanks, I am trying to get the wife and her mom to go visit his grave before Christmas. I want to decorate it a little.

Among all the holiday activities and work, I came up with an out door garage lighting solution. I put up a test strip and like the look. 

Link for lights.

Lights look great Neal! I dig the separation between the blue and red.

[j-roadtatts 1,129]

They knocked it out of the park!

Well played sir, well played.

[j-roadtatts 1,129]

We watched Bohemian Rhapsody this weekend also. Watched the Grinch, the night before that. Good times!

[j-roadtatts 1,129]

Wheel bearings done. I did a diagonal tire rotation and ended up doing the brakes on all four corners also once inspected.  

 

Went smooth other than breaking one ABS plug. I just bypassed the plug with solder and heat shrink.

[j-roadtatts 1,129]

Built a mount for the H800 finally!!

[nem 2,019]

putting in some work!

I spoke WAYYYY too soon.  Was trapped behind an accident for 3 hours that Friday evening.

Yep, on my dime daily use deal.  I'm only on the phone between 30min-3hrs a day probably and hate having to actually hold the phone.  I don't mind an on the ear to much but I won't wear it if I'm not actually using it, and that'll negate the purpose of even having the thing if I don't have it on me when the phone rings.  

I'd never thought about getting a molded insert, sounds like an awesome way to go though.  I use to have molded earplugs but those have long since been junked and don't fit anymore.  I've now got 3M and MSA Sordin electronic plugs and muffs that are way better though for earpro, but I suppose they ought to be for the price.  

Right now I'm trying a Spiegen Legato thing, I don't hate it yet which is good, but so many people have gone to making the flexible cable style neckband with the tiny battery that doesn't work for me.  

I use the mic on my phone and my head phones.  Means I hold the phone but not to my head.  I have found that inline mics sound bad usually
