inPicked up my diploma frame from the shop on 5th Street and finally hung it up
Did you used to think frames were a waste of money, because I did until this made me see how much it can motivate you?

inWarning: the $40 tone and probe kit I skipped is the reason I spent 3 hours in a crawlspace today
Read on a forum once that a guy on a takeover job spent a whole day ringing out every single loop before he touched anything. Said it felt slow at the time but he never once cut the wrong wire after that. The old labels are a coin flip, sometimes the last guy was sharp and sometimes he was guessing too. I started doing the same thing after wasting my own afternoon on bad labels. Ten minutes per loop beats crawling back under a house because some sharpie from 1998 lied to you. You toning every loop now or just the ones that look sketchy?

inQuestion about saving Deadwood: should I push HBO to bring it back or just accept the movie ended it?
36 episodes and a movie that came out 13 years after the show got axed. Here's the thing nobody brings up. Deadwood was never really about getting a proper ending. It was about watching a town turn into something, and the real history of Deadwood keeps going past 1877 anyway. So a revival wouldn't be fixing a story, it would be picking up a place and seeing what changed. The movie already did that in a quiet way with Alma and Bullock and Trixie all older and worn down. I say let it rest, because the rush of season 3 is part of the charm now, like a scar you learn to like. Fighting HBO for more just gets you another two hour goodbye, and we already got one.
