Of course, a snippy text this morning, but I shan't respond at this time.

ChasSmith - it isn't automatic with audio books but there are ways to convert to mp3 for your library - apparently easiest if you have the Audible app, but Google it and you'll see options.

I wonder if there’s an audio software that could make quicker work of that reader’s click-filled book reading. Old linear video editing software used to allow you to zip between the clicks, delete the takes you didn’t like, etc.

Ah! Yes, and looking at it on Amazon I totally remember it, and listening to it.

Was gonna go get bagels for tuna sandwiches, but I got a Postmates 55% off deal, so ordered the tri-salad from Art's, which I haven't had in months. about eight bucks cheaper than actually going there and having it. Good deal and I love it AND save on gas.I get two more orders like that if I want to use them.

The guy also had one of the most terrifying deaths, I think about it every time I’m driving behind a truck loaded with pipes or beams or whatever.

I just looked him up.  Oh, my goodness!  That would definitely be a terrible way to die! :o

I also looked him up.  I do my best to avoid trucks like that, as well as car transport trucks.

I thought I was a bit silly avoiding transport trucks until I read about a car sliding of the back and causing a bad accident.

The new car has an "econo" mode, and we're finding that we're getting over 150 miles more on a tank fill than we did with the old car. Pretty great.

When you're stopped with your foot on the break, the car goes "silent," like it's turned off. That takes a little getting used to.

I have experienced that in cars.  It feels strange.

Interesting.  Someone I know has talked about that feature and she said it took a long time for her to get used to that. :-\

But adding 150 miles per tank would definitely be worth it!

Well, this is interesting.  While going through vids on YouTube, one of the Up Next videos was from Christo Aivalis (from Canada), but the thumbnail image was the rectangle with the rounded corners and three dots in the center.  I clicked on it, and nothing was there, which I think is because the title of the video was "Тrumр ЅНОТ ВΥ GUΝМАΝ Wіth АЅЅАULТ RІFLЕ, СRІТІСАL..."

WTF?? :o
