Boyfriend just asked me about the foster process for the rescue I got my dog from. Guess we are going to apply to be a foster!

The nice thing is our rescue pays for all food, vet, leash, collar and a crate. The foster my mom works with she has to supply everything except vet.

I was very happy to catch the Intergroup Dynamics Study, made it 40 minutes in and got a white screen. Followed all the instructions for submitting the error code only to not receive a survey code. I mean I get it, but I don't. Hoping they respond quickly to the email. I told them I would submit with my worker ID if I didn't receive a response in the 45 minutes left on my timer. Tried to be nice....

Dear sweet baby jesus, they responded immediately and said 3-5 percent of players received the same error and they will compensate in full!!!

Why don't you use a wired speaker? Run it thru the attic/whatever to the kitchen/back porch. Could also run the wire along the baseboards like an electric raceway. Then you could mount it on the ceiling/wall. Go old school.
who are you? a sister I didn't know my dad fathered? :wink: Sounds like something my dad (a retired electrical engineer) would suggest to me.

Hard to convince him new school is usually better (wireless makes things portable). Reminds me I have to teach him how to use the navigation in his new old fart Lincoln MKS. I set up the nav for his trip to Walla Walla washington for a wedding of my cousin's child. He told me he didn't use it coming back because he didn't know how to change the destination. Also says he can hardly hear the voice prompts and I'm guessing he didn't consult the manual to figure out how to fix that so I'll have to do that too.

I went ahead and bought a baby monitor - $18 dlvd. Probably cheaper than buying a few hundred feet of 2 conductor stranded wire and the connectors to go on it. Hookup wire and connectors seem very expensive nowdays compared to when I used to buy them as a teen or younger adult.

Baby Monitor may have a secondary use in a few years - it appears many people also buy them to help take care of their aging loved ones. Dad's 76 in August so I'm probably going to have a bigger role in helping him soon.
