Ebay: quan 20 1N60 diodes. Used the 1N34 diodes in my crystal sets when I was a kid. I also had a cat's whisker with a hunk of galena. Once I took the crystal out and wedged a green corroded penny in and it worked just fine. Never tried a razor blade.

Textured fabric shower curtain liner $18 delivered tomorrow.
The one I got from Target is like the cheap PVC liners that billow into the tub space and you have to keep pushing it back. I will have a friend of ours hem it into a curtain for the window in the shower stall.

Two six-packs of assorted solid color undershorts. My housemate could find only one pair of undershorts when he did my laundry when I was in the hospital. I have my suspicion that my housemate's son "borrowed" them as we wear the same size. I bought some in a different style. The facility didn't want me running around commando in a gown, so they gave me a package of disposable paper underwear. They are not as nice as cloth but they will do for now.

Amazon made the delivery as expected. Thought at first I had a DOA cable (quality Chinese workmanship that isn't an Intel motherboard or a Lenovo) but it wasn't plugged in all the way at first.

You should have gotten some pink flowery ones. Even if he did swipe them they would be easy to spot. Kind of sad he would do that with all you've done for them.

Did like everyone around here taking a shower: take off what I'm wearing and dropped it in the bathroom. My housemate took umbrage at the paper underwear left in the bathroom (he has no objection to cloth underwear, at least not when his boys do it). This morning, I put the paper underwear in a HEB grocery store bag and carried it out in the business room. From there, it went in Tuesday's trash pickup.

Zoro
Wheelbarrow handles (one pair) Liquid Wrench penetrating oil. Nobody in town seems to stock it anymore. They have BP Blaster, but that stuff doesn't work as well.

I haven’t ordered anything since October 10th except for two thirty pound bags of Pedigree dog food from Chewy.com; the lack of use of my workhorse credit card has resulted in a balance lower than Wednesday’s Social Security Retirement payment. Haven’t had to buy any food since October 12th other than a venti Starbucks green tea and a couple of cans of Diet Coke. The food at Houston Methodist and the nursing home I’m getting has been good unless the vegetable of the day is peas. But most of the time they put the peas with other vegetables that I like. When that’s the case, I go through the vegetables, picking out the ones that I like and leaving the peas on the plate.

Turned out I only got one six-pack of undershorts, so I went out and ordered another six-pack. Estimated delivery time five to seven days. That should be enough to let me wash clothes leisurely.
