    I'm close to reaching the point of Wonko the sane.

    Several people on the truck forum I'm a member of have posted threads complaining that their trucks are out of gas/won't start etc. when the "Miles to E" display on their instrument cluster shows they still have XYZ miles until empty.

    Gauges are estimates (at best) and they're complaining that their truck couldn't compensate for their stupidity.

    There were warning labels on bags of candy at CVS that the bags were not toys.

    We're not litigating ourselves to intelligence.

    And I am guessing they don;t do regular maintenance, never checked the accuracy of their fuel gage, and don;t account for things like temperature fluctuation affecting the viscosity of fluids, etc., ....

    And they're complaining on the forum because Ford won't cover the issue on warranty coverage.

    I am sure, in my hearts of hearts, that we will at some point pay for the fact that we have had two days of April weather not even halfway through January. I don't mind it being nice out, and being able to leave the house with only a sweater, not a jacket or coat, but it does leave me anticipating some dramatic payback in some form!

    All this time.......

    We got a Keurig for Christmas last year, and now I fond out I've been using it incorrectly.

    It says under the cup holder "Do Not Use Without Adult Supervision".

    All this time I've been breaking that rule.....

    I hate that disappointment when you realize while you have been busy doing work, your nice hot tea has gotten cold. Sigh. Just a random thought!

    Lots of birds out today, chomping up all the seed I tossed out!
