The power tools are junk but the mechanics tools are still pretty good. On a side note my Craftsmen tools still work does @Goofyernmost (just joking)

Nope... happily retired. Work is for peasants!

There was a time you could replace just the rubber wiper part for a couple of bucks (can't buy anymore) now you have to buy the whole wiper blade which costs 10-25 dollars depending on the brand so much for cutting down on waste. Buy a product and they don't stand by it I know your frustration

I believe it is a design flaw. The rubber wiper part from the bracket to the edge of the blade is only about 1/4 in. I feel that the problem is that it didn't leave enough distance between the two to be able to flex like it should. So instead of bending and squeegeeing the windshield it just remains stiff and rides up on the water, sort of hydroplaning! Whatever the cause, somebody is going to have a bad accident because of it, if they haven't already.

I read an article on those houses years ago and I remember the article said the quality of the lumber was nothing you see going into he houses being built today---- knot free lumber in roof rafters, floor joists, wall studs etc. Sears used to be my father and mines go to store shame what has happened to Sears

They mentioned that in my home inspection, that our house was made before they cheaped out on lumber

I was able to get my iPad working last night. This morning it is finally fully charged. However, I am still going to visit an Apple store, and see what it might be worth. I can't remember what year I bought it. Looks like the iPads are a bit cheaper now, than when I bought mine. I also can't get Disney+ to work on it. It works on my iPhone 8, and my iMac, but not my laptop, or my iPad.

I don't get a beer cart at work. I needed one yesterday.

I did have a large one after work today.

I think I needed something a bit stronger yesterday

I don't get a beer cart at work.

I mean, given that you're a teacher, I'd hope not.

Same here. I just keep replacing with newer and bigger ones. On my fourth one.

That's to be expected day one of any new ride. Bloggers, vloggers and just the I have to be first crowd. I expect it to be as busy as this for a while then settle down to E ticket wait times

And not included in extra magic hours.

I'm wondering if that's to insure it doesn't become the maintenance cluster ROTR is
