This all sounds highly personal. And while if what you say hapopened to you really happened Vicki, I'm sorry it did, then at the same time, don't post any more of that crap about not kissing and telling, because you are laying your problems out there for all.

rooster
I just have to say something here: I'm not sure that he *has* a "side of the story." The reason I say that is that he blindsided me with deception. We hadn't been fighting, he had just talked to me about getting married again last week, and he told me he wanted to open presents together on Christmas, and that he was going to his parents' on Christmas Day. And then I get a text on Christmas morning that he's in Hawaii.
This is a pretty fucking clear cut case of deception and lies, and no matter how you slice it, I don't think he has a side that flies, unless defending deception and lies is up your alley.
What could he possibly say? "I didn't tell her I was going to Hawaii with my secretary because I knew she'd be pissed, especially when I've been telling her for eight months that I'm coming to see her as soon as I have the time and the money?"
Everything I'm telling here is the honest to goodness truth, and if someone can find some angle as to why it's a good thing that he pulled this off, I'm all ears. I've looked at it from every which way but loose, and I can't find one.

Hmmmmmm.... I should go start the water boiling to steam them, hunh. Say, 5.30? Bring beer.
Doug, we get these damned brown ticks in on the irrigation. Up until two months ago, standard tick collars were working fine - I'd switched to those from Frontline cause that seemed to make Arthur a little nutty (calling QVC and ordering lingerie, that sort of thing.) Then, the collar didn't work and Arthur got overtaken by ticks - horrible, appalling. Couldn't get them off him - Frontline only marginally effective, a tick bath only slightly - but this PrevenTic collar is working as advertised. Kills all the ticks within the first 48 hours and within first 24 prevents any new ones attaching. I've just been curry combing out all the dead ones. Icky, but so gratifying.
So... would you take on a scooter courier that had a bitchin' tattoo up his neck?
.
Picked up the most beautiful plants at Home Depot you've ever seen in your life just now for about half price. (First I had them call the gardening manager. Always go to the top. Don't fool with the cashier.) I couldn't talk them down on the pansies because they're on consignment but the camellia belongs to them and I said: as scraggly as these pansies look (they just need water which they're getting from the rain now) and it's late in the season, mark the camellia down then. And he was like, "Look, the most I can do is down to $10." I said, let me have it for $3 and I'll take all of this as much money as I spend here. (I spend too much money in there with my containers and all and I picked up another one of those.)
This it the prettiest little camellia blooming tree you've ever seen. Too small to bloom yet but it will. They love shade like on my patio and acidic soil which my organics are in my containers. It's slightly pinkish white. They had tons of the red already blooming but this was the only one they had like this and was perfect for me. It's named Ave Maria Camellia.
I was under the impression the Gomez thing had long been over. I remember post mortems about the relationship being written months ago.
I decided not to discuss the relationship on the blog due to the grief I was getting for it and asked him not to, so we refrained for months. That's why everything was kept quiet, so as not to evoke people's comments one way or another. It was the same with krsaz. Decided not to push it.
The only reason I mentioned it at all was because I was concerned, and then when I got the text, I was shocked.
But I'm sick to death of being beaten up for talking about it/not talking about it. It is what it is. Even if people hate that phrase: it is what it is.

Doug: I don't know where you live, I don't know how old your battery is, and I don't know how long the dome light was left on.
In my limited experience, the dome light wouldn't kill the battery even after eight hours, even if it was pretty cold the car should still start.
So I think you need a new battery. Short term pain prevents long term misery. Batteries at best are good for five years, maybe less in rough climates like Chicago.
Few things lousier than needing a new battery in e.g. Greenville, MS on a Sunday afternoon, and I speak from experience.
Vicki, you get to decide what you say or don't say. You're an adult. If people don't like it they don't have to read it, if they want to know details you don't want to discuss, it's your right to refuse to gratify their curiosity.

The battery was pretty new, and is the "interstate" brand. But the dome light was one several days without me running the auto. I guess since I was riding around with the wife or son, I or them was driving one of their autos which are newer than mine. When running the Cherokee is very functional, but rough and rattly to ride in, since a good part of it's life it's been driven on frozen and unpaved roads.

So I think you need a new battery.
they are pretty easy to test.
does it charge? up to the recommended voltage? does it maintain voltage under a load? autozone should have a load meter with which to check it at no charge before you buy a new one.
here's why: when i was working auto parts, a guy came in and bought a battery. he didn't have the old one and didn't want any advice from some hippy kid store manager by god. an hour later, unable to start the car, he came back and threw the battery through our front display window.

It's the one piece of modern tech that's not gotten much further than 17th century tech once you get beyond the pretty plastic cases they come in.
It's always cheaper to start with the battery with any starting issues with a car. The other problem is that I've been charging the battery with a very old and flakey trickle charger, which is the other reason to go to auto zone, to get another one of those.

JP, once you get all the fiddley details worked out, you should sell franchises in other urban areas.
Talk to an accountant before long, to at least get the bookeeping details clear and simple.
Yeah. If the battery won't hold a charge, it has a dead cell, at least. Trade that puppy in for a fresh 'un.
Well, yes and no.
If complete discharges happen enough, sulfates build up enough to where it won't take a charge, let alone hold one.
But, if this is the first time it's been flattened, then it could just be reading a surface charge and the battery isn't really charged up.
When they're really, really flat, they don't pass current worth a darn. Put it on the charger at a low current for a day or two. When all the cells are cooking, it's getting a full charge.
I have a little trick for checking for dead cells, if a load tester isn't available. With a charger on and running, one can check each cell individually by putting the voltmeter leads directly into the electrolyte. In a normal battery, a good cell will read close to 2.1 volts, whether or not the battery is fully charged. If a cell is just starting to go, it will read around 1.8V. If the cell is shorted, it will read around 1.5-1.6V. Easy to check. Post to adjacent cell, then cell to cell, in turn, then last cell to post. If the battery's bad, most of the time, that test will indicate it.
At the local AutoZone, if they put a discharged battery on a load tester, they'll tell you it's bad, when it may not be.

well, again, they are easy to test. and believe it or not, sometimes just low on water (yeah, i know - they are "sealed" - bwahaha!)
under warrenty? sure, bring it in for replacement. otherwise, no sense in replacing a perfectly good battery if the charging or starting system is the problem.
you know, you can fix everything by removing the radiator cap, pulling the car out of the garage, pulling a new car in, and putting the cap back on that one. unless of course the radiator cap is defective.

Me!
Romulan Ale?

But with the right marketing, It might do okay. I have a lot of these GPS phones that'll work through 2010, which is cool. Allows the dispatcher and customers to know where our guys are.

i'm sure you'll do great. and wish you nothing but well. but you know what the real problem is, right?
your employees will be depending on you.

Dude it's only 2:30 in the afternoon here! Shocked, I tells ya!
And the Mrs. is home....
If you drop an unbuffered aspirin down each battery cell, they will ususally come back to life.
Oh, cripes:
The Liberian issue September 11 commemorative something or other.
I am sick of 9-11.
one can check each cell individually by putting the voltmeter leads directly into the electrolyte.
be sure to rinse very thoroughly!
when i was in that line of work, all of my jeans had tell-tale holes eaten in them. they don't show up until later.

Sadly, I am unable to start because I've been drinking for a while...

OMG! NTodd's pa was here last night looking for a date and NOBODY CALLED ME?
be sure to rinse very thoroughly!
Oh, yes. Doesn't do the voltmeter leads any good, either, to leave them with acid on them.
Started a scrabble game with you NTodd
I would have to stop drinking in order to start drinking again. No sir, not gonna do it.
dirk gently: your employees will be depending on you.
Sure. I explained to my potential hire that just starting out, he might be lucky to make $20/day, but he was cool with that. He's got a part-time night gig, too, so any extra is good for him.
He'll make more money if I have him doing all the courier work starting out, and me playing dispatcher, I suspect.

don't use tylanol gel-caps, though.
also, as intimated above, long discharge periods or too many fast charges will sometimes evaporate the water from a cell. even sealed cells. pop the top and fill with distilled water, then add the aspirin.

Should not be a big issue. Only carrying 25lbs. or less, items smaller than a briefcase.

Interstate is AFAIK the best of the breed. I buy 'em exclusively if I can.
I would put the battery on a good charger (and you can buy one for not a lot of money) for several hours, if it is only a year or so old, and see if it takes the charge. If you don't want to do that, take it to a garage and tell them up front, you really can't afford to buy a new battery if you are not sure of their honesty, and have them try to charge it up.
Maybe there are other issues, like Deity forbid your alternator, or the fan belt.

We'll be fine as long as the seals don't show up to testify. We have the orcas on it.
NTodd's Pa, I keep telling my mother to do just that. Spend it all, leave everyone five bucks, no fighting.
That means she has up to $30 she doesn't have to get rid of before kicking.
I ended up buying a new battery after it wouldn't take a jump or a 12+ hour trickle charge. When did those things start costing 80 bucks? Last time I remember buying one it was 40. When I looked online for one they quoted 169(!)
BTW, I'm making Amish bread!

Oh dear. Think I came on too strong? It's not like me to be so forward. I just couldn't help myself...
The RNC chair is SHOCKED, Shocked to learn that there's racism in his establishment.
From the Feathered Bastard, Phoenix New Times:
By now, many of you have already read about our corrupt top constable Sheriff
Joe Arpaio's flipping the verbal bird to President-elect Barack Obama and his soon-to-be U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder. Concerning his ethnic profiling sweeps and raids, Arpaio told the Phoenix Business Journal that,
"I'm not stopping," and if folks have complaints, they can, "take them to the FBI." That's straight from the gob of Maricopa County's cross
between Bull Connor and Judge Roy Bean.
I found this interesting because just last night, as I was interviewing Arizona ACORN director Monica Sandschafer on the porch of the dreaded Fourth Avenue Jail, moments after she had been released after spending a day in stir, she related the following. Seems she was checking out of the facility, when the deputy overseeing her paperwork struck up a political conversation with her, noting that, "You guys [ACORN members] are all for Obama." Sandschafer suggested that this was not a bad thing as Obama won the election, right? The deputy's response was right out of the Lee Harvey Oswald joke book.
"He goes, `Oh, well, for a short time anyway...he (Obama) might suffer from the JFK syndrome,'" recounted Sandschafer.
"And I said, `Well, let's hope not,'" Sandschafer told the deputy, who then went on to inform her that he'd voted for Bush three times, apparently referring to Bushes I and II. While it may not be illegal for an MCSO deputy to long for Barack Obama's death, assuming he doesn't do anything to help bring it about, it is at the very least unseemly for a law enforcement official to make such remarks, assuming Sandschafer is recalling the conversation
correctly.
But is it any surprise that a rogue top cop like Arpaio would have men working for him that would like to see the President-elect of the United States assassinated? Arpaio's nose-thumb of Obama in the Phoenix Business Journal
shows that Arpaio has no respect for the office of the Presidency, or for any law and order other than his own. Such an attitude infects Arpaio's underlings, making them feel immune to scrutiny and contemptuous of outside authority. The fish indeed rots from the head down.
As I've reported in previous blog posts, here and here, Sandschafer was arrested by sheriff's deputies yesterday for applauding at a public meeting of the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors. This is the sort of knee-jerk authoritarian overreaction that occurs regularly in places like Venezuela, Burma, China, and elsewhere. Similarly, in this burg, people getting arrested at the drop of a hat is shrugged off as de rigueur. Last time I checked, Maricopa County was still landlocked within the United States of America, and presumably governed by the same Constitution and Bill of Rights that we all hold dear.
Unfortunately, no one has ever informed Joe Arpaio of this, much less his minions.

I have a friend who is an alcohol and drug counselor and he said that with some people emotional growth stops at the age when someone starts with the substance to which they become addicted.
My ex started drinking and doing drugs at 15. Sounds about right. To him, it will always be 1969 and he will always be 15.
Although these past few years, his body is telling him differently.

No, actually, you've used the term with great skill.
In the function y = 1/(x-2), the value x = 2 is a singularity, because there y = 1/0 and the mathematical police come to arrest you for dividing by zero.
In general relativity, black holes contain (or perhaps are) a singularity, and there the laws of physics go completely bananas; time and space there have no meaning at all.
So I think you've used the term absolutely appropriately.

Ah, see? There's your problem, right there.
All we have to really understand is what *we* are saying/thinking/feeling in these situations. The other person has, so to speak, his/her own higher power.
You move on at the point where you stop trying to explain yourself or trying to understand where the other person -- who is, in this case, just a dick -- is coming from.

All we have to really understand is what *we* are saying/thinking/feeling in these situations. The other person has, so to speak, his/her own higher power.
And there it is: you can't reason out something when you don't want to be with a person (or vice versa), nor can you go lawyerly and say, "well, you said back on XYZ date that you'd love me forever" or shit like that. You're done, you move on, that's it.
Obviously there are some complications with kids and stuff, but that's the legal side of things. You have every right to your feelings and if you've communicated them and he still doesn't get it, well, sometimes that just doesn't fucking matter.
So I think you've used the term absolutely appropriately.

down home rag is not really ragtime, strictly speaking (neither is alexander's ragtime band, but you see in those days you called it a rag if you wanted it to make money). scott joplin famously said "ragtime is never to be played fast", not that that stopped anybody. down home rag has more of what might be called a "minstrel show" rhythm, with the eight beats of the bar divided up as ONE-two-three-one-TWO-three-one-two
having said that, the tempo is indeed as intended, and the record is not speeded up. i love any hot music that musicians manage to play well at speeds like that, and i hope to post more at that speed or even faster!
