My latest kilt in the US Navy tartan, received yesterday. This is my 3rd kilt from this company, the other two are both in the MacGregor red and green tartan (my clan).

If I could get the door open I'd show you, but the packages are blocking the door.

Not a purchase per-se, but I just got this ring. Kansas Speedway gave them out to season ticket holders last weekend (I've had season tickets for 21 years, since the year it opened). I got an email about it a couple days before the race with very little info, so I set my expectations very low as to not be disappointed. Obviously not something you'd wear, but a neat thank you for handing over all my hard-earned dollars over the years.

This is a 3x9 275 MTB probably match with my physical size.

I bought a used older cheapo Magna from a friend for 20bucks. I had to do some repairs but it works. Came time to look for new rims/tires and this gracious retiree way out South here basically donated tubes and tires to me and sold me full alloy rims all for 60bucks. Now i have a 20 dollar mountain bike converted to a single speed with 500 dollar street rims and tires on it lol.
 
So my missus dropped her Samsung A21s phone, and cracked the screen. Guess it was time to get a new one... a Xiaomi Note10 Pro a few weeks back

Also, just replaced the screen of the A21s, and passed it to her brother. He's a light user, so the phone should be more than adequate.
 
.... and here's another. A slightly smaller frame for the missus. Time to start a bicycle race!!

Fedex delivered a new pantry Saturday. Dropped it at my front door. since it was all in pieces and all wood, it was about 140 pounds of dead weight. Took almost 10 minutes to get it in the front door. I have a bad foot right now so it limited what I could do. Took almost 30 minutes just to unpack the box and verify all the pieces was there. Had it packed tight with a lot of foam. Took another 2 hours to put it together.

It would not have taken so long if I did NOT follow the instructions. Finally had to toss them after the second time the bottom half fell apart. Only needed three tools, a screwdriver, a mallet and a roomba that works with alexa. I got it together and loaded, replacing a rubbermaid pantry. And if you are wondering about the roomba, I was so tired after all that work, I could not get out of the recliner so I got alexa to get the roomba to vacuum the carpet. It was covered with pieces of foam and packing material.

That looks like an interesting phone... Mini reviews please!!

The case and screen protector just arrived today so I set the Pixel 6 up late in the day today. Will start test driving it starting tomorrow and then post a mini review in our regular thread.

Haha.. I just had to do the same thing with a PVC pipe. 10 foot pipe + 5 foot truck bed = stick it through the sliding window.

Samsung Galaxy Watch4 Classic. I'm not a fan of the white bands so I threw on the bands that came with my Galaxy Watch Active 2.

Not pictured is the rose gold Fitbit Sense that I got for the gf.
 
Got this free when I renewed my Motor Trend on-demand sub last month. Just arrived today. Any other Roadkill fans here?

sometimes you got to wonder. a couple weeks ago, I ordered the soundbar but it was never picked up by the USPS. Basically they said it got lost. Amazon reshipped the order and said they were going to upgrade the shipping, so they shipped it by...USPS. I am still trying to figure out the upgrade part. . Now my only concerned is a recent email from amazon that saids if I do not send back the original one by Feb 1, they are going to charge me for it too. Sure glad tracking shows it was never picked up and delivered.

Anyway, I received it today and it works great. It basically set itself up - even the built in Alexa set itself up. all I had to do was to plug in the cables.

I've been using a soundbar for what seems like forever. It's easy to forget how about speakers sound on TVs.
