At the food co-op today, one of the employees mistook me for someone that shouldn't be using the self-checkout. 
The air-chilled, free-range, organic, massaged-weekly chicken just wouldn't scan, and they assumed that I was doing something wrong. There was some vindication when they couldn't get it to scan, either, and had to manually punch in the bar code... but still - oof, I'm not that old, ya bastard.

Is this an Ultegra level device or Dura-Ace?

Interesting repair on that corner. Never seen a dovetail used to hold the same piece of wood together.

I just asked my wife if I could buy the Profitec lever machine and she said, “Why not? As much coffee as you drink, it’s probably a bargain.”

Correct.
The panels are mine, as in I made them/make them to sell to others with compatible chassis. I really liked the character of this piece of wood, including the flaws, so I used a contrasting walnut bow-tie to both stabilize and highlight the area -

Now that you are retired, you have a little more time on your hands. I highly recommend the French Press. I use the James Hoffman method (steep for 4 minutes, then stir and steep another 4-5 minutes). It takes a bit of time but even a dummy like me can make amazing coffee this way.

I recall Bah Humbug was a huge fan. Anyone know what he is up to?

On my ride yesterday, Garmin was not showing speed, cadence which was a first. Did a reset and it made things worse when power dropped out. Did another reset and no love, plus lost average cadence. When home I did a full device reset, losing all my sensors and connections. So it was less than fun getting everything set up again for three bikes - first world problem. Don’t have a clue about the malfunction other than maybe adding Di2 and a few extra functions was too much for its little brain. I doubt riding in the downpour the other day would have done it or else it would be totally messed up. Quite the riddle why it happened.
