We tried everything else, may as well try a war for oil.

When the power went out a couple of days ago, my electricity was back in a few hours, but my home automation didn’t come back.
Blowing up drug boats was working out, but after doing that a few dozen times, it gets boring. This was one way to shake things up.
I do appreciate the symmetry.
This has been a bad year for big budget movies, so movie reviewers are recommending movies that were overlooked. That’s how I ended up with Roofman.
It’s based on a true story about a guy who couldn’t get on track after leaving the Army. He started robbing fast food restaurants by cutting a holes through the roofs. When the cops were after him, he spent several months living inside a Toys ‘R’ Us store.
Early on in the movie, one aspect of the story was too incredible to suspend disbelief.
Sparky is a fierce snow dog.
He looks like a gremlin that someone fed after midnight.
Sparky said that he likes your chances in 2026. This is the year you should get after it.
Sparky predicts it.
The worst thing about the power being out, is not knowing when it’s coming back on. And it’s really boring.
NPR: Crime in the U.S. fell in 2025. Will the trend continue?
Murders are down 20% from last year, and NPR can’t figure out why. All crimes are down, and it may not be too hard to figure out.
While I was having my coffee this morning, I noticed these guys screwing around in front of my house.
What are they doing? Don’t know. Probably some X-files bullshit. They may be with the water department.
When towing a trailer that weighs over 3000 lbs, a brake controller is required. My new Tacoma doesn’t have one. My last Tacoma didn’t either, but the RV dealership put one on in about 15 minutes because the wiring harness was already there.
Toyota decided to stop doing that. Now they sell Tacomas with a tow package, but no brake controller or provision to install a brake controller.
A few people have instructions online for the installation, but none of them match up. It’s a research project. I’m going to wait for a couple of weeks until Tech Support at the company is back from vacation.
