PSA: Carry a few tools in your car because you never know when you'll have trouble. A small socket wrench set saved me from a big headache at 6 this morning, when I was not at home.
I know there are other good items to have, but that's the one that came in handy today.

This is the kind of thing that happens when infrastructure is consistently underfunded.
Deferred maintenance almost always ends up costing much more in the end.

Young Frankenstein (1974) and Dracula (1931), last weekend's pre Halloween B&W double feature.
First time watching Dracula, which looked great for a nearly 100-year old film.
Young Frankenstein is an old favorite. Such a good cast.

It's come to my attention that October 8th is both International Lesbian Day AND World Octopus Day. So #Earpers know what that really means: it's Horny Nicole Haught Day.
