    Good Morning Lodge (or afternoon or evening)!

    Nice day before it gets nasty humid again. Looks like RFAlph is getting flooded!

      Is there a full moon or is some planet in retrograde or something? I decided to drive in this morning. Halfway there, I see my Check Engine light comes on. Grrrr. I turned around and went home to take the T as I'm flying out tonight to Las Vegas (work trip) and I do not have the time to deal with my car falling apart on the way to or from the office. I get on the subway, three stops in an announcement that the train at the stop ahead of us isn't moving due to issues with one of the doors. Ugh. Thankfully that didn't take as long as it could have to work itself out. I get to my stop, the up escalator is under repair. Oy. I hope that's it for today!!

            ETA - the full moon was on the 27th. Just crazies last night, I guess.

                Check engine light usually means nothing. Nothing to worry about.

                  Isn't it to the point where it could simply mean a tire has low pressure? It's become the go-to warning about ANYTHING going on with your vehicle?
                  Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

                    I've had it come on roughly ten times since I've started driving. One time it was it was a faulty purge valve, the other ~9 times it was fuel cap related.

                      Forgot about the fuel cap. That's just insane. All this technology.....ok, we'll just make this one light to warn you of everything. "Well, your engine could blow up.....or your fuel cap is loose. Good luck!"

                        OMG I got gas Saturday morning and it seemed like the guy had a hard time with putting the fuel cap back on. Could it be that simple?? So, if I fix that and screw it in properly will the light go out on it’s own or do they need to fix something to reset it?

                          It should reset on it's own eventually. Depends on the brand. Some will turn off right away, others will turn off after a certain number of starts.

                              Good morning. Here at Caesar’s Palace waiting to check in. There’s about 30 people ahead of me. There’s ONE person working check in. I probably won’t get to my room for another hour.
