~What made you happy this week?~
- Thread starter Miss Hunter
- Start date
I had a long overdue booster shot of invigorating TLC, administered by the very capable feminine practitioner ESC !
I've still got a silly Grin on my face, days after the fact...
Mr Q.
P.S. A fragile shot of Adictivo, only enhanced the pleasure ! LOL

The rain. I hope it rains throughout the summer. Not everyday but it’s nice to have the occasional rainy day
I was talking to someone with MS and they were grousing about the cost of this:

I then pointed out they sell adult tricycles and a bike shop can easily remove the crank so they can walk with it too. Of course, a mass produced tricycle is only 15% of the price of the Alinker, so they were quite happy.

Seeing Judas Priest Live in concert again 37 yrs later, admiring a few selfies of Ms H, turning 53, knowing I'm going to see my new fav SP a couple weeks earlier than I normally do.
Well You must be tickled Pink today... LOL
It's raining Cats & Dogs, out here in Paradise !
I'm sure more than a few Campers at Alouette, on this Canada Day long Weekend, aren't sharing the same enthusiasm .
LOLMr Q.

agreed ! I dont have an A/C , can't fit one at my place , so it's especially been more comfortable for me , needless to say last summer was brutal
I’m enjoying this weather. The grass is gradually turning green in my neighborhood. I’ll happily take rain and green grass over heat and forest fire smoke.
European air conditioners, if they ever get here, just fit a flexible pipe out a window. The unit often doubles as a heater with a remote handheld thermostat.
A/C options:
1. Air movement:
a. Natural circulation (cold air drops down and hot air rises)
b. Forced by a Fan, i. in a window mount or ii. tower fan.
Air movement can cool off your house in the evening. Air moving over water, picks up moisture and can have a cooling effect.
2. A/C
a. A room/window A/C with the exhaust going out the window, (make sure the window is sealed good so hot air does not come back in and there is a place for moisture to be drained to)
b. Split units, a heat pump that pumps refrigerant to a split unit in the room and the refridgerant takes the heat from the room outside to the main unit.
c. For houses with oil/electric furnaces A/C can be installed in the output side of the furnace that takes air to the house.
The dyson air fan (yes those 550-750 fans the clean, and supply cool air and or heat the air): Does anybody know how on what principle it works to cool the air?
The only thing I can guess at it uses a Restriction (all those little holes putting out air at the fan output), using the standard gas law PV =nRT . As air passed through the nozzle(hole) the velocity of the air speeds up and you have a drop in pressure, if the pressure drops so does the temperature. So its like any other fan it just moves air around.
In thermodynamics if the motor of the fan is going and the room is completely sealed off, all the fan (fan motor creates heat) will do is increase the temperature of the room because the motor is running from the electrical plug.... energy transfer is from electrical to mechanical to heat. In thermodynamics heat moves from one place to another.... so with the dyson fan where does the heat in the room go to?
So why are people paying 500.00 for a fan that just moves air and really doesn't cool off your room. its no better than your standard fan that blows air in the room.

I live in the near middle of nowhere and yet I hear someone singing at the top of his lungs in a very happy "I don't care I am tone deaf" way. Things must be going very well today, good for him, rock on.

Good motorcycle ride, my new puppy, the gal who started living with me half the time, golfing, flying my new to me ( 21 year old ) plane, friends, sunny days, and hearing how happy it made Katey hearing that person sing.
She might even be able to tolerate my shower singing...it is bad...but i don't care.
