My usual comics haul. DC silver age comics are on sale for 99¢ each which explains the Challengers of the Unknown comics. The Captain Marvel omnibus is the third of three and the only one I didn’t have. It’s usually $19.99; but was on sale for $7.99 so I finally grabbed it.

Where'd you buy that, hotmail.com?

Regardless of global shortages of cycling stuff and after 8 months of wait a new bike arrived. Orbea OIZ M30 TR.

(seatpost with offset is from old bike, new one is on the way)

Must be nice to live somewhere you don't need to worry about your mail freezing.

Indeed. You have no idea.

Pellets, pellets, pellets.

I have a backup* Traeger just in case my main one dies.

And mine doesn't have wifi, because that's just stupid.

Jet engine.

*it's the original one that came damaged

 

[Touring Mars]

That post should really have come with a Traeger warning...

I’d take a frozen mail over snake guarded mail any day. I haven’t collect bills for a week because I don’t know if it’s venomous or not yet.

I have not encountered snake in my mailbox, but I have encountered a number of spiders.

It was a first for me. Usually the snakes are on the ground or in the trees. This one seemed to be at home in the post box. If only it wanted to pay my water bill...

From a quick Google search it seemed to be a Golden Tree Snake which isn’t dangerous to humans. But I’m glad it’s not in my mailbox anymore.

Maybe I should buy a heated mailbox like TB has. Maybe that would attract more...

The worst encounter I have had with spiders in the mailbox was babies hatching. I think I noped out of there for the day.

The geckos here eat all the spiders luckily, although spider season does produce some of the most awful monstrosities known to man, including the Golden Orb Weaver, which I’m pretty sure sets up webs to catch sparrow because it’s like streams of glue from a hot glue gun.

I’m sure those things influenced the Ocarina of Time.

I was planning on upgrading from my trusty Driving Force GT in a few months, but I decided to splurge after getting an unexpected bonus.

I feel like my G27/pedals are going to die any day now. I've felt this way for 3 years.

Despite the pedal not actually being pressed down, it blips 1-10% by itself all the time unless I let the pedal let off the pedal pretty hard and even then it doesn't always stop. And the wheel started making a click in it recently I've never heard before.

I've got nearly a decade of muscle memory with this bad boy and my biggest fear is having to get use to a different wheel and pedals set.

Have you tried cleaning the pot meters of the G27 pedals @kolio?

If they were in an easier place to access I would give it a try. If I'm going to take them out of my rig, I'm going to replace them. I'm lazy.
