makes one wonder, how to 'point' at someone. though the rest is feasible but seems somewhat uncomfortable from an outside perspective.

Watching the Indycar race. So cool to mute the tv and hear the race outside.

Indycar, not Indianapolis.

I got a coffee grinder for father's day. So far we have tried half a dozen beans, and the one we like best so far happens to be one of the least expensive; Tim Horton's original roast, eh.

You are right though, he'd be hard to miss.

UPS Sept 5 - still showing duties owed, get a notification of "driver attempted delivery". I didn't see any driver, my office faces the only entrance to the office, nor did our warehouse receiving team... clearly they didn't even attempt. I called them and said "what gives on the attempted delivery and the COD still showing". Immediately I'm put on hold and passed around to no less than 3 different people. Finally someone competent answers and says "I see everything on our side and your paperwork is all correct, idk what these other people are doing. The driver will attempt to deliver today if dispatch can contact the driver. At worst tomorrow during normal business hours." Miraculously a driver came back midway through the afternoon and finally delivered the box.

What a saga, I hate UPS. The box did arrive no worse for wear and the contents safe.

Why is the forum so slow? This sucks.

I noticed it's been pretty quiet. I have just been busy since I have a ton of stuff going on with work and prepping for inventory. Leaving work for a bit this morning for an interview elsewhere.

More like the pages aren't loading very fast.
Here, it's something like 20 - 30 seconds after hitting [Next Page].
So, yeah. The forum is slow.

Clipdat · 09-07-2023, 11:40 AM

Yeah, I meant slow as in page loading speeds.

@NoHaveMSG I got weld pics for you coming soon of both the JDL overpipe and the Fujitsubo dual res front pipe. Both underwhelming unfortunately. Just need to get them off my phone and post.

Sapphireho · 09-07-2023, 04:44 PM

It's both. Slow site, plus less people coming to RT, and the ones that do come less often.
