DNA and other biometrics are usually recorded during an arrest process. Though, with the legal age being 21 in the good ol' US, do they collect DNA from juvenile offenders? He'd have to have a good rap sheet if they did have it recorded.

I’ve got a parody earworm; my mind is happily singing “We all live in a tub of margarine, a tub of margarine, a tub of margarine…”

Don’t know yet. TBH it could even be our fault, if an overlength screw was used and it bottomed out before clamping. VAG are really finicky about screw lengths and they are a bit odd overall; 10, 12, 16, 18, 22 all in similar areas of the motor. So if it was supposed to be 16 but an 18 went in - that’s a potential issue.
Takes half a day to tear down and clean. |

So I'm applying the Mallow Wax to the Falcon,
in the shed to stay nice and cool and I notice a mark in the paint work, so grab some polish to remove said mark and buggar me it's a reflection in the paint of the roof of the garage. I'm thinking here that I might be feeling a wee bit silly!!!!! It's good to laugh at yourself occasionally. Terry aka Tbro |

Work; thousands of dollars in Snappy gear yet the $15 pump sprayer for degreasing has been broken several weeks. And people firing the “parts cannon” or tryagnostic method to no avail. I like to feel more respect for the customer’s pocket. The apprentice bringing his extended family in for foreign orders, like something from an episode of Housos.

Getting grumpy in my old age, but YouTube channels who either vlog or review cars. HOLD THE CAMERA STILL! Sick of static shots where the camera sways side to side, or today a kiwi was showing the interior of a car but was working the camera like Steve Irwin on a croc, stop wrestling it and hold it still so we can see what you’re trying to show.

After I got home from work, had my shower and sat down in front of the TV before dinner, I sort of knew something was off. Within half an hour, I was down on the bed with the lights off. Within an hour, I was basically immobilized, and my blood sugar had crashed, like scary low. So, a massive hypo and a crushing migraine, I just couldn't lift myself up and into kitchen. I ended up texting my parents for help, they managed to get two glasses of orange juice into me. Which was then followed an hour later by projectile vomiting into the toilet (sorry, but part of the story). Naturally, that also would have negated any pain relief I had taken. In hindsight, I probably should have had a Glucagon injection instead. Since then, my doctor recommended the following - https://www.imigranmigraine.com.au/a...gran-migraine/

That’s an interesting product to read about - thanks. I feel like there’s a “crunch” waiting to be got out of my neck which will help, but can’t make it happen yet.
This is the tax for over-doing things three days in a row, as the flu set in. |

Slowly starting to creep back in now unfortunately. I take Imigran, takes about an hour to slowly kick in. Trick is to take it as soon as the onset of a migraine starts, if you leave it too late, they don't work. Can make you a little bit foggy for a short while, but I was able to function OK. Cost $20 for pack of 4, but Chemist warehouse much cheaper.

I can safely say that before the onset of a migraine, I was either heavily stressed out or physically exhausted/heat stroke.

That’s relatable, I had chicken pox as an adult in 2019 and it ironed me out for several days. Shingles last year, much less so. But the vaccine should get you through to recovery a lot faster.

A week or two ago I finally went down to Bunnings to buy that foam door seal stuff because I'm sick of this cold shit. Luckily just before the Crowdstrike disaster
![]() Anyways I put it all on but I couldn't close the doors without serious effort and the front door would not stay closed shut without the dead bolt. But it did help with keeping the temperature nice while it was there. So I ripped it all off because it was not practical which was a struggle with the self adhesive. Today I finally got around to trying to clean it all up. **** me that was hard but between acetone and meth spirits I got it all off mostly. I rinse the cloth and think it's all good and chuck it in the wash. My whole laundry smells like it now. I hate that! ![]() |

Re migraines my wife suffered a lot in our early days together.
Ended up going for a check to a physio then a chiropractor. He spin was crooked curved from her neck down some and her shoulders mis aligned favouring her strength right handed. Always been an active doer from her young days due to poor parents and one of 8 therefore the kids, well some did all the work. Maybe contributed I don’t know. She went through the scary thing of having g her neck cracked a few times. Some acupuncture. Sorted her out haven’t suffered migraines for years for she did suffer them regularly.
