Nasty bout with the flu. Spent all Friday in bed with the chills and just couldn't get warm, plus my skin was sensitive as heck, headache, stomach ache, overall felt run down. Finally was able to down a dry piece of toast and a little chicken broth on Saturday. Just getting over it this morning, but still not 100%

So I have been ignoring a big job at work because I didn't want it just sitting, taking up space while the other depts took their sweet old time getting to their parts. So today was the day. Everything was done except my part. 14 joints of insulated duct ranging in size from 55x27 to 43x23. Big, clumsy, itchy. I fire up the ductline, but unbeknown to me, a strip of shrink wrap had got sucked into the machine and wrapped around a roller. This tripped the "part present" sensor every time the roller rotated and burned out the pneumatic valve switch. Tomorrow I will be cutting, gluing, and pinning the insulation by hand.
 
Oy.
 
!@#$%^& Youtube.

Had just listened to a Les Paul and Chet Atkins track and decided I wanted more Les Paul music so put that in the search box.

Most of the first page were either Les Paul wanabees or people waffling about Les Paul guitars.
 
And following that the Lemurs** at the https://www.naa.gov.au/
According to them the Royal Australian Air Force rescued raider survivors from Emarau in the year 1800.


More exactly they did this, according to the Lemurs, on January first 1800.


Being Lemurs it is a waste of time informing them that the cover of the file shows the file actually opened on 2 Jan 1941 as a friend of mine notified them, during an inquiry in to their incompetence, that some 200 1930/40's RAAF files were dated Open/Closed 01/01/1800. That was over five years ago and they have not corrected one record yet as far as he can tell.

** At the very bottom of the monkey 'smart triangle' sits the stupidest monkey: the Lemur. A monkey so dumb, a Lemur doesn't even recognise its own reflection. Show a Lemur a mirror, and it will attempt to bite itself to death in confusion - except it probably won't even manage to do that properly.

It's not that they are incompetent, it's just that no funds have been allocated to revising the database. Talk to your MP in Canberra.

It is that they are too lazy to proofread what they type and are totally protected against any comeback. They also make other errors like writing the United States Army Air Force as the United States of America Air Force and regularly misname aircraft - the most common being typing Beaufighter when it should be Beaufort and vice versa. They also commonly add or subtract letters from critical words in the title.

Their staff motto is She'll be right mate - near enough is good enough.
 
"Besides, nobody will ever look at this crap anyway..."
