Outbreak of Gremlins or Djinn or whatever
« on: December 06, 2017, 10:23:28 AM »
We interrupt this broadcast for the following message:
Jeez I can't find and fix the problems fast enough.
We have a serious outbreak of (seemingly) unrelated mechanical and technical breakdowns and mysterious "issues" around here. Too numerous to start a list right now.
Maybe I should hire a priest or burn some sage and pound drums or something- some kind of "cleansing" is needed.
Maybe its the Russian colluders or those Norks or aliens out to frustrate me. yeah, its probably those aliens.
That is all.
We now return to our regularly scheduled program...
What we have here is failure to communicate.

Same.  Just the amount of parts I've needed over the last month has been nuts.  I'd go broke if I was paying for service too.

vehicle mechanicals on 2 out of 3 as well as a complicated gasoline leak on one, outdoor water hydrant just in time for cold weather, internal phone line problems, computer issues, more computer issues, elec power went out 2 nights ago while I was cleaning a shotgun in the basement and while groping my way out in the dark I managed to knock the shotgun barrel off the bench and onto the concrete floor, clothes dryer motor went pfff, and that's just this week and its only Wednesday...   
I know better than to expect much sympathy from this bunch but have a good day y'all.

I have slaughtered two bulls, 3 goats, 5 chickens and a vestal virgin, wrapped myself in sackcloth and ashes.  I will begin the rending of the sackcloth momentarily. :O  Hope this helps.

Kingcreek, you've been blowing out candles lately instead of using a proper candle snuffer, eh?  Baaaad juju.

grampster, where did you find a virgin?  Let alone a vestal one.
