  3. Do you have kids?
    Hell no!
  4. If you were another person, would you be a friend of yourself?

Creative Wiring

On Saturday I went to help my brother move a thermostat and fix a bit of wiring. You’ll never guess where this cord leads…

The cord (hidden behind the dish washer) takes electricity up to a switch by the kitchen sink, which feeds down to wires under the sink. The wires were laying there with wire nuts. Obviously this was meant for controlling the garbage disposal, so we installed a GFCI outlet and now they can turn it on like you’re supposed to.

I’m come across some weird shit in my old 1979 house, but never anything quite like this. What’s the weirdest wiring configuration you’ve seen?

Justice & Ragnarok

Went to the Justice League last night.

I enjoyed it. It wasn’t Wonder Woman or Marvel good, but this makes 2 solid DC movies in a row.

Saw Thor: Ragnarok on opening weekend a couple of weeks ago, but never mentioned it.

It was a really fun movie. Marvel has been killing it. Which reminds me I need to watch the new Punisher series on Netflix.
