My new toy, my Harbor Freight Circuit Detector, worked perfectly this morning, finding the correct circuit breaker in about 15 seconds.
I just plugged the small transmitter into the plug strip, and seeing the light was on, went to the circuit breaker panel and ran the detector down one side of the breaker row and back up the other side. And then did it again.
As the directions said, the first trip up and down gave me a couple of false beeps, but the second loop narrowed it down to one particular breaker. So crossing my fingers, I flipped the breaker and went back in to check the power strip. And finding the light on the transmitter light off and everything else still on, I had my separate power outlet and was now clear to move the server.
After being sure that no one in-house was logged in, and no users were in the shopping cart, I shut down the server and unplugged everything.. First thing I moved was the UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) and got it plugged in to the AC power. Then the server followed and 5 minutes later it was back up and online.
At this point I started scrounging up a monitor, keyboard, and mouse for the server so I don’t have to keep switching them back and forth.
While I was letting it all settle in, I drove down to the nearby O’Reilly’s Auto Parts to pick up the parts for a front brake job for our truck. Two new rotors, and a set of pads ran me about $160.
I don’t worry about having the rotors turned down. I just replace them every other pad change. It’s worked great for 267,000 miles so far. And lucky for me I have a son who’s really good at this stuff, so we’re going over to his house tomorrow afternoon and let him take care of it while I supervise.
When we were in Krogers the other day, I came across this new flavor of Lay’s Potato Chips.
Really? Chicken and Waffles?
What’s next? Liver and Onions?
And there’s more.
OK, I’ll give you Sriracha. But Cheesy Garlic Bread?
We’re bordering on heresy here.
