Sagging Garage Door Temporary Fix

My garage door is 16' wide steel sectional for a two car garage. Well, these things wear out and they start to sag in the middle which causes issues with opening and closing.

It also causes the sheet metal to tear. 

First I added two pieces of 8' long, 3/4" wide, 1/8" thick, 90 degree angle pieces of aluminum that I bolted together. That helped.

That wasn't quite enough, so I added a section of 8', 1.5" wide, 1/8" thick, 90 degree aluminum.

Even better now. But this is just a temporary fix to hold the door over for a week until I get a new and better one.

Office-Where Junk Food Disappears

 I had leftover cookies from a party, so I brought them into the office.

Sports = web traffic drops in March

I was browsing the site traffic for a website I contribute to and noticed a drastic drop in the March/April time frame. Searching other sites saw the same drop. I figure the combinations of March Madness along with NBA and NHL playoffs are the contributors to the drop in traffic on non-sports related sites. BTW, the below are a random sampling of automotive traffic sites.

50 mile bicycle ride intake

So this is basically what I consume during a 50 mile bicycle ride. A big bottle of Gatorade, a couple KIND bars, a coupe Clif Mocha shots, and a couple Saltstick tablets. And water of course.
