Something tells me I'd enjoy the content of your jars as opposed to the other subject being referenced (before being vanished).

It just occurred to me what the jars you are referencing were for. I'm a little slow today.

The contents of my jars are something to behold.

Lol, that's okay. I'm fairly certain very few people understood the reference. It was a short lived topic before someone got their panties in a bunch. My point is still the same. I want what's in your jar if given a choice.

Oh I see. I was gonna say thank goodness for Japanese Microsoft IME if needing to write in Japanese language. Much easier than trying to remember the layout of that keyboard.

Professional grill cleaning for my 6-year old grill. Second time I’ve had it done and this was a different vendor. Probably a little cleaner that I would have gotten it, but not blown away by results. They all have websites that make it seem like an old grill can be made to look like brand new. It’s clean, but nowhere near brand new-looking. It did save me a good 2-3 hours I don’t have though.

I should have taken a before picture. I did it myself a year ago and it was definitely due. But it isn’t an old grill that was deteriorated. It wasn’t as bad as this before picture of someone else’s grill from their website and I don’t think the results are quite as good as the after picture from their website. But I’m happy with it overall and I don’t have 3 hours to spend on it right now.

I just got the board and some different caps. This is my first build so my friend is helping me try out a few different switches that she has laying around before buying.

I ended up picking up these caps: https://kbdfans.com/collections/keyc...39522257240203

It doesn't deserve one. I actually don't love that grill all that much and wish I went with a replacement Weber. Stuck with it now though.

How about a Type R sticker then?
I heard it'll add more BTUs.

Went to the stealership to buy some oil and filter kits since I'll just change the oil when I do some N55 work. I walked out w/ only the latter.

They're not selling oil since they haven't gotten a delivery in a long time and have since exhausted all supply. I was advised to pick some up from any auto part store excl the ones around the dealership. Apparently, they bought out the synthetics from the local stores. Geez...

I'm confused. You bought a keyboard that doesn't come with keys?
