Thank you, Pappy. Now I know where I fit into this life. My kids, grandkids, siblings, nephews, nieces, and a number of friends have used those terms to describe me many, many times, although their favorite term is "weird". When a number of 3, 4, or 5 year-old grandkids say: "Grandpa, you're weird!", you kinda think it might be true. And several years ago, one of my daughters got me a nice Father's Day card with hearts and flowers and it said "For a very, very special Father" on the outside. On the inside, it said "Mother says it's better to say special instead of weird".

Wear that moniker proudly !! (I do, and I've been considered a "weirdo freak" for most of my life ... and not just by family )

Nope, Speck fixed it temporarily till the guber can order the right switch. The switch that detects when the door opens and closes failed.
