Missy Passes Boards

We had great news today. Missy, my daughter, has passed her boards. So, she is on her way to becoming a Veterinarian. She graduates this spring.

William, Chas, and Lisa made this snow dog
the other day. I think it's awesome and much
cooler than a traditional snowman.

Cleaning House

Wendy was in the cleaning mood today and found some old items we haven't used in about 25 years. Below are photos of one of my old razors and the old intercoms we used to use to listen to Missy when she was a baby.

This is one of my old razors. See below photo
and description as to how to install a new
blade. You could adjust the closeness of the
shave by rotating the shaft just below the
head. You can see the numbers which helped
you decide how close you wanted to shave.

To put a new razor blade into this razor, you
had to turn the base of the razor to open the
top. Then you dropped a new blade in. The
last step was to turn the base the other way
and close the top. Then you were ready to
shave.

Before wireless baby monitors were invented,
Wendy and I used these two intercom devices.
These were used to listen to our baby
daughter, Missy, 25 years ago.

Just in case you don't have enough photos of
me snowblowing, here is another one.

New Laser Printer

On the Black Friday sales day after Thanksgiving, I bought a laser printer. I got it for about $69.

Why a laser printer?

I'm tired of buying ink jet cartridges that have a thimble of ink for $30. I don't print that much and most of the time, I don't need a color printer.

So, today I installed the laser printer. It prints very fast. And the paper comes out toasty warm like cookies out of the oven. One drawback is that it is very noisy. When you start it up, it sounds like an airplane taking off. And the actual printing is noisy. But, so far, I like it.

It is a Samsung ML-2510.
