Re: Anybody Wanna Design A closet structure? - Yesterday
We had a few closet companies come out and got their free design and estimates for two closets; a ~10' single wall closet in the small bedroom, and a walk-in w/ ~9' left side wall, ~5' back wall, and 8' right side wall for the master. Eye-popping costs, $5,200 and up (to way up), but did take their designs under advisement. Taking all of our "gotta have's" into consideration, we were stby Buzz - Tips and Deals

Re: No(bu) means No(bu)?!....the latest, 'Nobu Malibu' [ a restaurant ] accused of sexual harassment..... - 2 days ago
Nobu's favorite restaurant? .....he's a BBQ guy at heart. With all his restaurants, it would be a statistical impossibility to not have a sexual harassment complaint somewhere up or down that food chain. Not surprising (also) that it would happen in Malibu, given its location and clientele. ==by Buzz - Tips and Deals

Baby Buzz and I are both ~13.5 by the Brannock Device, but nobody makes 13.5's, so about 2/3 are 14's and 1/3 are 13's. 99% of my sneakers are 14's, most slippers & loafers are 13's. I can't wear Crocs, but the kid loves 'em, and his are 12's.... throws the paradigm off. ==by Buzz - Tips and Deals

Glad my hometown 49er's are kicking booty, but this is first time watching live football on Prime on big screen (for us anyway at 60"). It just has a funkiness about it that other live sports, via cable, don't seem to have. Anybody have a reasonable explanation? Thanks. ==by Buzz - Tips and Deals

My old boss at the camera store in the mid 1970's had something similar, but it was in need of a lot work to be in anywhere near that condition.

Speaking of LiIon batteries, how to jump start 'em? - 7 days ago
While I was out of action w/ Covid, I didn't charge my aging ZTE gaming phablet for ~3 weeks, and now it's not taking a charge. I've tried low power charging, and high power charging, and no matter what charger it gets hooked up to, it doesn't seem to want to get over the hump to suck down enough juice to do its thing. A couple of times I did get it to start starting up, but it crapped out just aby Buzz - Tips and Deals
