After a little fuss and muss Speaker Johnson is Speaker Johnson again.\u00a0 Okay.<\/p>\n
And I hear the judge in New York City is going to sentence Trump right before his inauguration.\u00a0 Who knows, maybe he\u2019s going to try some dirty tricks like locking him up for the inauguration ceremony.\u00a0 Maybe the Supreme Court Justice will have to swear him in from Ryker\u2019s Island.\u00a0 Yeah, yeah, whatever.<\/p>\n
Okay, so we\u2019re dealing with mental cases everywhere we\u2019re supposed to have sages and scholars.\u00a0 Well, what can I say.\u00a0 These are fallen times and we have to expect idiots to drool on themselves quite a lot of the time.\u00a0 But things continue to fall apart apace.\u00a0 Some percentage of our veterans harbor homicidal tendencies toward the United States.\u00a0 Well, they have lowered the standards for mental fitness so this should be expected.<\/p>\n
But this is going to continue while Donald Trump begins to assemble and deploy his cabinet and they get to work terminating the deep state.\u00a0 I won\u2019t be surprised if some disgruntled former FBI agents decide to take pot shots at him going forward.<\/p>\n
But I have bigger fish to fry.\u00a0 Camera Girl was complaining about the foaming soap dispensers that I bought a bunch of years ago.\u00a0 It seems they weren\u2019t working smoothly.\u00a0 The pump would get jammed.\u00a0 So, I took one apart and tried to figure out what was wrong.\u00a0 Well, there wasn\u2019t much there so I washed the components and put them back together and tried it out again.\u00a0 Well, now it wasn\u2019t jammed but the damn thing didn\u2019t work.\u00a0 Nothing came out.\u00a0 So now I was getting mad.\u00a0 I took another one apart and cleaned it up and still couldn\u2019t find anything wrong.\u00a0 And when I put it back together it didn\u2019t work.\u00a0 Nothing came out.<\/p>\n
So, I stopped taking them apart and since the internet is our friend I did a search for foaming soap dispensers and found this cool exploded view of the mechanism and noticed something.\u00a0 There is a tiny ball that acts as a check valve.\u00a0 This ball allows soap to be sucked into the valve but not pushed back out.\u00a0 And I couldn\u2019t remember seeing such a thing in the two pumps I disassembled.\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0Well, the stupid thing is only an 1\/8th<\/sup> of an inch in diameter and transparent plastic so when I cleaned out the pump, I must have washed it down the drain both times.<\/p>\n Now this was very annoying.\u00a0 I have since ordered fifty 1\/8th<\/sup> inch polypropylene balls and a tube of food grade silicone grease.\u00a0 With these invaluable supplies I intend to restore the two dispensers back into functionality.\u00a0 Moreover, I will grease all of the pump pistons with the silicone and thereby satisfy Camera Girl\u2019s original complaint about my equipment choices for the various sink areas of the house.\u00a0 There are currently six of these dispensers in the place and each one will require this overhaul.<\/p>\n I wonder if she appreciates how lucky she is to have a technical individual of my caliber at her disposal twenty-four\/seven?\u00a0 I doubt that she could have gotten the quick response and analytical acumen that I provided in this foamed soap crisis from just any regular husband.\u00a0 Far from it.\u00a0 The only thing I regret is that because of the critical nature of the crisis there was not time for me to send out RFQ\u2019s (requests for quotations) to three qualified bidders on the project.\u00a0 Business, after all, should be conducted in a businesslike manner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" After a little fuss and muss Speaker Johnson is Speaker Johnson again.\u00a0 Okay.
