Cool. Please say hi to Dad for me!

Hey Jesus, do you like cats?

Oh no! I may have this too. I’m going to Rush to my doctor.

copied youtube comment…

Kara Swisher needs to be an advisor for Kamala to deal with this problem.

Have you met my step ladder? I never knew my real ladder.

Not the answer you’re looking for but we just put a cap over our double chimney. Our area has terrible pollution problems and, although we liked having fires, we’re happier not contributing to the area’s bad air.

Thanks for writing this up, it’s very interesting!

Well whadaya know… that works.

Sometimes recipe sites will have a “Print Recipe” button that gets rid of all that junk.

Funny picture!

But GS cookies are pretty awful. They’re full of sugar and palm oil. Maybe if they offered something that’s actually good for us, and the world, they’d sell more?

So, in the bottom picture, the staff can only passively look at the far away screens?

“No touchy the keyboard!”

Rumor has it that going over that with a dry-erase marker, then immediately wiping it off with a rag, will erase it all.

That or a more elaborate sticker/photo taped far enough away so the camera may focus on it. Maybe an image of Alfred E. Neuman? Or some kind of FU meme?

I see mounting to a stud as something useful if the outlet is expected to get a lot of use. The “wings” of old work box might possibly dig into the drywall and become loose. In this case the use level will be low, right? Besides, attaching to a stud is work intensive, and I believe that using an old work box like this is up to code. I’ve used them a number of times.

EDIT: Also about the caps… I try to observe a “code plus” approach and wrap caps with friction tape (NOT the plastic electrician’s tape). That stuff will provide a little more protection for decades.

Great! I’d also explore properly attaching the blue box to the drywall, then using a box extender to cover the space taken up by the melamine. This way the outlet and cover can be securely attached.

So the the third photo is with the melamine cabinet removed? If so, you are so lucky to have found it now. That old outlet looks like it was shorting. Major fire hazard there. What does the back of the cabinet look like?

The old outlet should never have been buried like that. I’m not an electrician but my understanding is that the outlet should have been removed, the wires properly terminated (with caps or the like), the box covered with a plate cover, then the back of the cabinet should have had a hole cut into it so access to the cover was still possible with the cabinet in place.

Plus: what’s the deal with the blue box? Was it never properly attached to the wall? Did the original installer mis-cut the cabinet hole and instead improperly add a new box?

Context?

The size of SUVs these days is getting out of hand.

Hasn’t JS6 got most of what jQuery offers?

It works with snakes too… June 2: Yell “Fudge” at the Cobras in North America Day

(There are no true cobras in North America so yelling “fudge” must work!)
