    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Went for a run today, which went pretty well. Towards the end of the run I was trying to keep my average pace below a target that I thought was reasonable. When I got home and compared it to my personal best it turned out I was 2 seconds per mile slower than my PB. If I'd realised how close I...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Maybe I'm missing something here. If you have calculations that relate to, among other things, the capacitance of a body of water why can't you use a multimeter to meaasure it? If it changes over time, measure it again. Presumably it would shift fairly slowly so you can measure it every hour or...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Unless I'm missing something you can measure resistance, inductance and capacitance using a relatively cheap multimeter.

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Leisurely morning with church, then got a gentle walk in with my wife. There's a single stretch that is mostly a gentle downhill grade so I took the chance to run it, and waited for my wife at the bottom end. It felt much easier than the last time I did that, and for good measure I took a few...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Today's run pushed initial endurance a bit further. I'm still paying for it in the later parts of the run but things are still heading in the right direction. Then this afternoon was nice and cool after the thunderstorm went past, which left me wishing I'd known that would happen so I could have...

    The Fools?

    That one is easy. Anyone who has a different interpretation of Scripture than mine. Because I'm always right, obviously :)

    When the world can't see past Christian hate

    Often I'm reminded of the lyrics of a song called "Who ya tryin' to kid, kid?" from the 1980s, with lyrics that went something like: Can't understand those Christians so you type us all in stereo They're hypocrites, they're such a bore Well come on in, there's room for one more. It's sad when...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Got another run in today. Where I alternate between jogging and walking today's task was to jog for longer even if at a slower pace. Which I did, at least for the first couple of miles. Then my intervals became more evenly matched as time went on. No speed records broken but my endurance is...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    I'm not sure what the new one is made of, my wife found it and thought it would be useful for me. I tried it, and after 90 minutes of hard walking in the sun it was just as soaked with sweat as my regular shirts. It is much lighter weight so it wasn't as heavy, but still soaked. Years ago I had...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Got a new shirt that's supposed to wick away sweat. Now I'm debating going for a run or a longer walk in the sun to see how well it works. If it works I'll get some more, the shirts I currently use for general casual wear aren't great for activities involving a lot of sweating. The longer walk...

    Cause and Effect - Covid and Illegal Entry

    It's all part of the growing silliness. Everything gets shut down over a virus with a survival rate well over 99% for most of us, yet they bring in ever-more people who are untested. Then they introduce new rules so you need papers to go out for dinner but not to vote and not to cross the...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Got a run in this morning. I'm trying to run more of the uphill sections where I've historically walked them. It's frustrating because it lowers my overall average speed but the plan is that once I can run the uphill sections it will be easier to run for longer, which will then bring my overall...

    USA MY Take on Trump v Biden

    Just out of curiosity, did you notice the lowercase c at the beginning of catholic, and how it differs from the uppercase C at the beginning of Catholic? But hey, I'm not going to polish my floor because I wasn't born in Poland.

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Remarkably my master water valve not only turns smoothly but also shuts off and restores the water as it should. I was really expecting to have to use a wrench to turn it and to find it either didn't shut off the water or didn't turn it back on. What it means is that I can do my plumbing work...

    Drain Hot Water Heater?

    These are the kind of situations when I wonder whether having some kind of pump on hand would be worth it. If you could attach a pump to a long hose, drain your tank into a bucket and then pump the water from the bucket to wherever you need it, that would seem convenient. Where I'm thinking of...

    Drain Hot Water Heater?

    I don't know if you have to drain the entire thing or not. If you have a slope off the back could you drain the whole thing down the slope?

    If could start own home-based business, what would it be?

    Lots of things can be fun but making a living out of them is another thing entirely. The trouble is that if you're doing enough to make a living the chances are it will soon cease to be fun, unless you can get to a point where people will pay a good rate for your time and materials. The trouble...
