Bud Fox: Hey chat, where is Sir Lawrence Wildman going? Chat: Sure Bud! He’s headed to Erie, PA, the headquarters of Anacott Steel. I looked into Wildman’s phone location pings that shows he’s at a private airport. I crossed referenced real-time FAA flight plans, revealing the obvious destination!

I’m starting to get concerned at the number of times my web browser accuses me of not being a human. 😬

Finally got to the Visitor Center mode in Jurassic Park pinball and successfully completed it, and then stacked on some additional victory points with several targets hit. JP is just a complete game: code, shots, risk/reward. 👌
I’ve gotten so accustomed to tap-to-pay now, that two trips in a row to the pet store, where I have a gift card in my wallet with funds to pay, I used my phone to pay and totally forgot to spend down my gift card! 🤦♂️
“Satisfaction is churn. Misery is recurring revenue.” Fairly gut-check type of read. I do loathe today’s “internet” more than I love it.

On today’s (backup) bike ride, my bottom bracket started to make some pretty loud clicking noises. Not my backup bike, too! 😫 Turns out it was dirt and grime accumulated between the left crank arm and outer bracket face. Cleaned that all up and now the drivetrain is smooth and quiet again. Whew! 😅
It’s absolutely pouring down rain south of Cleveland, so we won’t be headed to New York all that early today. Looks like it’ll be a late night check in outside Syracuse.
Camping outside Indianapolis is better with a barbecue grill 😋
