In a van.... down by the river
range specifically refers to the cooktop for pots, skillets, etc. oven is the enclosed part used for baking, etc. stove typically refers to either the range (cooktop) or the entire unit (when both are present in a single unit).

range is more commonly used as the term for a standalone cooktop when it is not a unit with an oven, but is still technically correct for either configuration.

gotta love the english language.

:nerd:
Srsly. Fuck the English language. :D

'Round where I'm from a range is a self-contained cooktop+oven. Range and stove are interchangable.

In England the phrase ‘kitchen range’ is also popular to describe the whole thing (stovetop and oven) especially for older style units like Agas.

A range is where grazing animals can roam freely, or the set of allowable values defined by a set of constraints.

A stove is a type of greenhouse.

Hot damn. The really awesome cat groomer who I had to book 2 months out just cancelled a week before Monday was to get her 'do did. While I feel bad for the guy, I would have gotten her done 2 months ago 40 minutes away. She's pretty matted, I feel bad she's had to wait until it's REALLY cold to get shaved.

This new place requires a bath, Monday has never been bathed. :panic:

I have no idea where I am
Wife and kiddo just left for ten days in Iceland. I wonder how late I will sleep every day?
More importantly, you can make coffee wearing whatever you rolled out of bed with. However, as free as it feels, I still do not recommend frying bacon naked. Unless you really like playing hot grease on mah balls roulette.

Had to do some bush regen as a group today, wasn't feeling it so brunch was a Red Bull and a Ritalin, hahaha!
I figured tomorrow is for Ragrets, but it's 11:20pm and I have none of the sleepies, some Ragrets.

Got work in the morning but it's a brake job, so that's easy stuff assuming the aftermarket parts aren't terrible or wrong.
Last ones were terrible, at the top anchor point the three layers of steel weren't in line so it made the shoes rub on the drums.
Had to file in a proper radius so the shoes came home properly.

It's wild with all the potential faults you have to look for post Covid.
I always enjoy seeing another "first for me".
Hub lock screw head was damaged, use a grinder and cut a slot in it, use an impact driver and send the head of the screw flying.
Drill up through the sizes trying ezy outs, ended up getting the screw to move then it locked up. Figured I'd snap it off and the hub nut came undone.
Seems whoever did it last time missed the lock washer's hole and the screw stuck out and rubbed on the axle.
