Helicopter tape/frame protection tape. There's a lot out there, tons on Amazon, but the Lizard Skins stuff was what was available to me, locally/immediately.

The phone is steadily losing features. I can no longer turn on the flashlight with the double chop. And this morning I suddenly have no notifications. Both are turned on. I have been perusing new phone options.

Fun question of the day.
I was making adjustments to the front derailer following park tool instructions, and when I got to the part where you shift to put the chain on the inner most chain ring and inner most cog I realized that the shifting stops on the cog before the last one. My shifter has no more clicks, so it seems that my chain is not in sync with my RD?? I feel like this should be an easy fix but I think I am over thinking it. Any suggestions?

I’ll accept follow-up #6 , but demonstrable and explanatory pathology is strongly mitigating they have to be med-seeking and flip from obsequious to belligerent on you for full credit.
Maybe the pit bull part adds something...

Otherwise all my patients were sweetie pies yesterday except that one of the pit bulls did attack and kill the owners cat several years ago. (!). She is never sketchy around humans though.

Oof. It would be really difficult for me to carry on with a pet that had killed another pet (cats targeting small birds/rodents notwithstanding).

More importantly, aren't there more productive things she enjoys doing, or is vetting a potential life partner her only interest?

well the maybe-myasthenic husky was supposedly too aggressive to handle normally. But at the time of examination too neuromuscularly weak to bite. so he was wannabe belligerent.
Otherwise all my patients were sweetie pies yesterday except that one of the pit bulls did attack and kill the owners cat several years ago. (!). She is never sketchy around humans though.

Unacceptable, they shouldn't be lumped together. Rodents are a pest whereas birds, other than pigeons and canadian geese, are not.

Why Canada Geese are still protected is beyond me. Must be some treaty with Canada or something, prolly related to all the Mericans with "kittens". Ironic, really.
