My kid got bop it from a neighbor yesterday.

I’ve never played it

Gramp borrows and gives it back and my high score of 33was replaced with 53..

Well. Let’s just say. Bop it is back in its rightful home and now has a proud announcement of 59 high score.
I have the r2d2 bopit and I have the perfect score of 100...
 
OOO here's another brag that nobody cares about lol
I can play a bunch of Korn songs on my bass

I finally figured out how to make silky milky with my Christmas present to myself, my espresso machine.
 
I’m just finishing up the traditional Xmas dinner. She had prime rib and I had a hamburger with fries.

Nothing says Christmas like a Christmas ham burger.
Welcome had prime rib too! It was delicious
 
Alright! Since this is still going…not reef related. I am the only person I’ve ever know who had a vehicle severely damaged by a runaway horse drawn carriage. It happened when I leaved in Breckenridge, Colorado.

Apparently someone threw out a beer in front of Fatty’s Pizza and it spooked the horses that pull the tourist carriage around town. They took off down French street and about half a mile later the first thing they encountered (other than a Summit Daily News box) was the drivers side back end of my Nissan Maxima. $4500 in damage, a hoof print on the trunk, and a looooong conversation with USAA trying to convince them that I’d been hit by a horse and buggy!

That’s crazy!

I’m the only person I know (but I’m sure not the only one) to have my suv immobilized by mice! I live next to some state land with some wildlife and one day I go to start my suv and the dashboard goes CRAZY. codes for everything being shown. Brakes. Engine. Computer. Radio. Seatbelts. It was like a Christmas display of messages and icons and codes all at once and of course…Wouldn’t start

Car was under warranty so I had it towed to the dealership. They call me up and said they took a look and all my wires are missing. What??!!!!! Yup all the wiring harnesses and wires in the engine bay and from the fuse panel to various areas - are missing. They noticed chew marks on the wire nubs that were left behind and asked if I live by any woods or fields. I said yes.

They told me that sometimes squirrels, but typically field mice, gnaw through the wiring to steal the insulation for nesting material, and it appears every accessible wire was chewed through and stolen!

Fortunately my insurance rep is one of the good ones and we were able to file under theft and got everything fully covered, minus deductible. This was several thousand dollars to fix so I ended up being really lucky.

I still park in the exact same spot every day and it hasn’t happened again since, I really have no way to prevent it. Every time I go to drive I have that brief moment of “will it start?!?!” Lol

I'd say the insurance paying is the most shocking part of that story. :face-with-tears-of-joy:

I used to work at a Cadillac dealership and we actually had 3 cars get traded in at different times during the 3 years I worked there with mouse damage... It seems weird but I guess they're attracted to the insulation and the wires.

Indeed!!! Thankfully an officer from the Breckenridge Police Department was still on scene to help me convince the incredulous insurance agent that I wasn’t completely nuts!
