    @Doctor-Phibes I have no direct experience with that particular make and model. It was the cheapest one I saw on Amazon. They all typically will work just fine for most vehicles. They are not 100% comprehensive diagnostics, that typically requires much more expensive units, but they will catch a lot of fault codes including the "gas cap not installed properly" code. It can also erase any codes it is capable of reading, which turns off the Check Engine light. If the condition persists after an "Erase Codes" it will just trip the same code again. But at least you have an idea of what's going on with your car.

If I heard the sportscaller correctly, that catch bought the Bucs a first down. EDIT to Correct: "However, the one-handed touchdown catch by the Bucs’ Mike Evan from a perfect pass by his QB is surely one for the highlights reel for at least a week to come."

    @Catseye3 we had a horse who was an off-the-track thoroughbred. His “barn name” was Gulliver. His registered name was “Finance Time.”

    Oh during the jousting event they had a portion that yelled "long live the king!" which was weird to hear.

    [image: 1662984026258-screen-shot-2022-09-11-at-7.05.20-pm.png] There were 2,977 killed in the twin towers and at the Pentagon that day. How does Jayapal get the 2,996 figure? By adding in the 19 hijackers. Minority leader McCarthy quoted the wrong number as well.

    In Ron Kessler's book, he tells the story of a president (or VEEP) never carrying any money. Whenever he'd go into a store, he'd hit up the Secret Service guys for some cash to buy something. He never paid them back.

    @George-K said in In Los Angeles: She says two firearms were stolen, despite them being ‘safely and securely stored.’ She says nothing else was stolen from her home, despite cash, electronics, and other valuables being visible. The RWEC noticed this. Kind of unusual to have all these goodies out in plain sight, and the only things stolen were two guns - which were presumably locked in a safe location (as the law requires). What was that location, and was is broken into? I was thinking the exact same thing when you posted this first time. Quite strange I think.

    Actually, I think that when they were writing the US constitution, the person who was translating it to paper mis-wrote. Instead of the right to BEAR arms, the original writers meant to say that there was a right to BARE arms. And how history has changed due to that one misspelling. LOL
