      I have to come clean. This is not the full story…

      Was gonna post this earlier but got sidetracked. Hopefully I’m not annoying everybody with the update. 🤣

      Long story short, the battery cables were part of the problem. I also had the starter replaced along with a laundry list of other things, about half of which I still need to address. I’m already $1,500 into it at the dealership, so I’m gonna take the rest to a mechanic my wife uses for her daughters’ cars and occasionally hers.

      The annoying part is that with all the technology today, the battery testing really wasn’t very helpful. On the bright side, I did get a brand new battery under warranty even though the old one turned out to be fine, so at least that’s another $400 battery I won’t have to buy.

                Waiting for my Ship John hat which is out for delivery. Mrs Chibs wanted me to go out with her to run some errands. So I called UPS, they usually tell me how many stops the driver has until they get to my house. Was calling them in front of her on speaker… She says “That’s a robot, you’re speaking to AI” I was like no way!! She googled it and yup. I was duped by AI AGAIN!! 🤬

                  Fuck Chicago Ohare…I have had more issues with this airport than any other I’ve flown from.

                  Currently moved to the 3rd gate and second terminal within the last hour.

                  On a positive note, at least I’m getting my daily steps in.

                      I came here to “rant” about having to decide which heavyweight shirt or CPO I finally get to wear now that it’s cool and drizzly today. But now my rant seems even more insignificant and silly than it already did.

                      Hope your flight went well…

                        @northsouthdenimguy all good and just finished a generous portion of red beans and rice. I’m all good now…🙂

                        I haven’t had good red beans and rice for about 30 years…damn I miss southern food.

                        Now I’m on the hunt for okra
