The old gas grill cover tore. They all do that eventually, especially in freezing weather, with the good ones lasting a few years. With a big snow storm forecast for tomorrow night, I wanted to get a new cover. I usually get grill covers at Ocean State Job Lot, but this time I went to Lowe’s, because it’s closer. Lowe’s ended up being a longer distance.
The first cover I bought today was supposed to be the right size, but it was too small. I returned the cover and got a refund. A bigger one of the same type was 15 bucks more, $45 vs. $30, so I bought a cheaper large cover for $25. The size was good, but it didn’t last a minute, because it ripped immediately. Back to Lowe’s I went for another refund and to buy the $45 cover. Tt’s okay, except it doesn’t have the side handles as shown on the box. All I care about is it fits and doesn’t get torn.
So, let’s see. That’s three 9-mile round-trips, for a total of 27 miles, compared to the almost 20-mile round-trip to the Job Lot. Can you tell I couldn’t think of anything else to write about?
Well, nothing, that is, other than Trump and Musk. Why are there kiddie programmers, with no financial system experience or expertise, looking at the Treasury’s payment system, unless they intend to do some coding. To what end?
