TomO:  Many websites have "password aging" where a password expires after a certain amount of time.  For a while, the 'best practice' was -30 day aging-, but finally common sense and some security studies showed that was just stupid, and for business sites actually more vulnerable.  (Who memorizes a 30 day password?  They just write it down and put it under the keyboard .)  Others will require 100% password changes after a security breach, or when changing underlying website software.  So that's not a big surprise.

Rick:  Will you be raking your grass cuttings into rolls like your neighbor?

Howdy folks,

Rick, thanks for opening, coffee, and breakfast. Looks like you have a lot of hay available.  Indeed, I had an MGA and MGB plus two Z3 2.8Ls.  I loved them all for different reasons, but the Z3s were my favorite.  In fact, I was bitten by the bug when I sold the windscreen and bought a 98 Z3 yesterday. It was probably foolish since I am almost 80...

Larry, hope the day was to your liking.

Curt, yikes, 86?

TomACL, good luck getting the moisture out.

Karl, have fun with your friend.

James, good luck with the grass mowing.

TomO, hope you find your password.

Ron, good luck with the dolly...

Philip, good afternoon.

How is the rest of the crew?

I woke up to thunderstorms, and they will return this afternoon. I didn't make it upstairs for long yesterday. Buying a new-to-me 1998 Z3 consumed the afternoon. The car is 28 years old but only has 58K miles on it,  Not a scratch or dent, and it's always been garaged. Here's the seller's photo.


Have fun,
mike

I forgot to mention along with flag day it's also the US Army's 251st birthday.

Mike beautiful car, not 86, it's only 76.

Good morning everyone.

49 now, clouds and 78 later.

Coffee, sodas and OJ are ready.
Pork roll, egg and cheese on a toasted and buttered everything bagel for breakfast today.

Mike, congratulations on the new ride and hope you have many safe and trouble free miles with it.

Dave, the grass wasn't even bagged. 

Philip, good morning.

Ron, congratulations on the new portable storage units.

Jerry, hope the room was cool.

TomO, glad you are safe and didn't suffer any damage at your home.

James, hope we get to see some of your pictures.

Karl, with all the hiking I've done I've only ever seen one bear.

ACLTom, glad the musty smell is gone and are all the roses planted?

Curt, glad you've got the kit started.

Larry, hope you got some bench time in.

Had a good workout at the gym and mowed the lawn in the afternoon.
A bunch of errands to run today.
Motor vehicle to change my address, Walmart to return things I didn't need and get things I do need, the bank and the Dollar Store to get some cheap stuff.

This was a few years ago at Indiana Dunes National Park at sunrise.



Have a great day everyone.

[Larry C]

Good Morning,

Mike sweet ride good luck with it; besides you're only as old as you feel.

Rick thanks for the coffee and breakfast. Sounds like a busy day....but a good busy. Beautiful photo.

What's your plans for the day?

It's a sunny but cool 56 with a high of only 63. A few errands to run then I hope to finish the small shed and post an update later on. This afternoon the front hedges need to be trimmed and check the flowers. That's about it from here.

Have a great and safe day!! Be well.

Good Morning All,

Thanks for opening and breakfast Rick. With all the errands you truly sound like an homeowner. Beautiful photo. I think it's one of your best ones.

Starting out the day in high 70's and headed to a 105F feel like temp. I'm dreading July-September. Yesterday I got the initial grain and coloring on the strip wood. It took about 3 hours. Next up is specific detail of the boards like splits, divots, knot holes etc.

Today after chores I have to take Dad on his weekly errands. MOH picks up the skunk kits and starts back to SC with her BFF. Not sure if I will make it to the workbench today.

Terry (Vietnam Seabee) is lending me one of the hand cranked Sanders on Thursday.

I hope everyone has a good day.

Good morning folks,

Rick, thanks for opening, coffee, and breakfast.  Terrific photo, thanks.

Larry, good luck with the shed.

Curt, looks like you are having fun on the kit.

How are the rest of the crew?

Thanks for the comments about the car.  

It's a rainy morning, but the sun is peeking from the clouds.  The rain is keeping the temperatures down to the 80s.  Today I have several 1:1 errands, then hope to make it upstairs.  I'm eyeing a Model T kit for the bench.

Have fun,
mike

[Philip]

Good morning! Thanks for the coffee Rick! That HOA must be pretty easy going?

What a cool car Mike... and the Model T

What are you working on Curt?

Have a great day gang!
