It turns out the capacitor went out on our AC. When I told WifeGeeding she asked if it was the flux capacitor, which made my heart melt – men adore it when women can use pop culture references, bonus points if it’s from the 80’s. Part of the repairs was covered under warranty, and the unit needed recharged, so in total we’re out $295. Saving up for that smoker starts all over again.
I may not be getting a smoker any time soon, but I still have a grill, and man did I grill one heck of a pork loin.
When the AC guys were working we had some small talk. They mentioned earlier this month they were at two notable houses. One was Glenn Beck’s place out in Westlake. To come on the property the repairman had to submit to a background check and he stated that there’s military style security with dogs guard the place 24/7. The other place was Dallas Maverick Devon Harris’ house. He has a two story garage that uses two AC units itself, and it’s the kind that has a car elevator.
I mentioned earlier this week that BaD Radio host Dan McDowell’s house was struck by lightning which destroyed several of his HDTVs as well as other household items, including the AC. Yesterday they played audio from the previous week in which they were going over a story of the odds of getting hit by lightning and Dan playfully daring God to strike him down with lightning. After they played the audio Dan stated that God may not have struck him down but he sure did takeaway some of the greatest joys in his life.
Riddell has a new football helmet that is suppose to be more protective, but I was most interested in the ratcheting chin strap (YouTube). In high school our football coach didn’t trust us enough to take our helmets off during practice or games because in the past too many players had trouble snapping their chin straps on in a hurry, so this would probably fix that problem.
For today's does of 'Murica, is that a Skoal packet? If so, is French-grown chewing tobacco a thing? If it is, then I guess I understand. If it's not, then I'm lost.
In case you missed it, Benjamin Corey and Matthew Paul Turner have started a podcast. It's called That God Show, and they're up to episode 4, I believe. The first episode was really just an introduction to the two, but now that they've started discussing substantive topics, it's a really great listen.
While I'm excited about a Looney Tunes movie, and the writers sound great, this part makes me apprehensive: "the new film will not center around any familiar Looney Tunes characters. Variety even describes it as a spin-off."
