inCustomer's dusty router comment made me check my own gear
Dust in a router is actually bad for it, the stuff traps heat and can fry the board over time. Same thing happened to a Netgear I had in my closet for two years, opened it up and it was basically a felt blanket in there lol.

inThe $150 omnibus that turned out to be a bootleg and fell apart in 3 weeks
Dang, that sucks but honestly the glossy pages are the giveaway, real omnis have that matte paper feel. Maybe check if the ISBN matches what's actually printed inside, bootleggers usually slap the right cover on but mess up the internal numbers lol.

inNoticed something at a client's office in Omaha last week
Yeah but honestly, that board probably beat your last three software updates.

inMy neighbor's 30 year old offset changed my mind about pellet grills
Bill's got a point, but here's my question: when you pulled that first butt off your pellet smoker and it came out perfect with zero babysitting, did you actually feel proud of it, or just relieved you didn't screw it up? I remember my buddy Dave bragging about his Traeger doing a 14 hour brisket while he slept, then he served it and it was good, but he couldn't tell me one thing about the smoke ring or the bark texture. That's what gets me, the set and forget takes away the whole reason I stand out in the cold at 6 AM, which is watching the fire and feeling like I actually did something. So what was your first cook on the offset going to be, and are you ready for the part where you want to go back to bed but the fire won't feed itself?
