You are correct. The GFI does protect humans from current leakage and circuits from accidental current leakage, say, if a tool being used has a current draw leg imbalance.

The truth be told, my shares in Caterpillar (CAT) took a shellacking yesterday.

Yeppers, Swampboots,
I had encountered the same when I changed a single gang metal box to a two gang box in the garage. I have to admit I still have problems wrapping a 12 gauge ground wire onto the socket grounding post.
By the way, if you have two prong no ground sockets you can use a GFI to protect the things you plug into the socket. The GFI will trigger and save your equipment in case of a big current draw or overvoltage.
Take care,

By the way, the last race at Belmont that was won by Miss Jimmy, I had the filly winning.
I got a nice imaginary payoff.

Hey Ske and all,
On the election bright side at this time, California voters defeated a ballot measure that would have made Uber and Lyft drivers direct employees. The proposition came out of the DemAssembly and was funded mainly by the Service Employees Union that was looking for more members.
The other measure that failed would have increased taxes on business and commercial properties. The state will have to find ways to tax us more to fund their pet projects. We homeowners would have been next.
Hope you enjoy.

Hey Bull Dolphin,
It's on my shopping list for my trip into town tomorrow.
Thanx,

The epoxy sounds like a good product.

Hi Countmein,
Thanks for the info.
The Walmart and Home Depot are just about the same distance from my home.

Hey Fuzzy,
Bears are not picky about what they eat. You can see the evidence in the "presents" they leave.
Taking in your bird feeders at night surely solves the bear problem. It won't work for my birds as I wake up late, so they won't get their early bird breakfast.
The modification I did last week seems to be working as the bear has not spun off the feeder since I did that.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the bears don't have Channel Lock pliers.
Trueheart
Hey, BD,
Is it available at Home Depot?
Trueheart
Is it available at Home Depot?

I found the bird feeder perch the bear tore off. I think there's enough metal material to glue it back on.
There's a glue out there that will do the trick in fair weather and foul?
What are your recommendations?
Thanx,
Trueheart
See, the promise that someday your son will be rich causes me to think about the double indemnity clause in your insurance coverage.
Don't let him hold the ladder when you're up on the roof or assure you that he turned off the breaker when you're doing electrical repairs.

Walmart sells good merchandise for customer-friendly prices.
The reasons products are manifold but one of the is profit for the manufacturers. They make more money where labor is cheap. And, this is a big and, we consumers want cheap prices for our goods and food.
Trueheart
Costco will survive bad economies and changes of administration, just like Walmart.
Trueheart
Did you check the insurance to see if there is double indemnity on your life in case of accidental death?
I'm glad that your got your wills made. Your heirs will get their due without the long, dragged-out court affairs.

Hi EZ,
The little girl hit the nail on the head for Halloween, but surely her comment applies to many situations and events that we enjoy.
No one came by my home this year, but I live on a steep street with no sidewalks or lighting. It's darker than a cow's stomach up here.
Yeppers, our Marine BD is coming up November 10. A good friend who served in the Navy (recon flights) always salutes me that day.
Hope your picks are winners.
I love to see 'em run.
Trueheart
Oh my gosh, Stuffie,
I'm sorry to hear of that sad COVID situation. The age range for those that are hospitalized surely tells us that this disease is not only harming (and killing) the oldest among us.
I hope and pray that all will recover from their illness.
Yes, "SAFETY FIRST!"
Trueheart
Roger that, Wildbilly.

A female praying mantis will bite her mate's head off within 15 minutes and kill him after mating whereas the human female will do it over a lifetime.

Hey, EZ,
Thanks for the annual Halloween funny.
Trevor Denman will not be calling the races at Del Mar due to the coronavirus. He will stay at his 500 acre farm in Minnesota.

Eight inches of rain in such a short period of time is unfathomable to me. It must be like being under a waterfall. That's about half of what we get in a year.
Trueheart
I thought that Ashville's location in the hills implied good drainage. I live on a pretty steep slope and the rain flows rapidly into the flatter area.
Signs have been posted about the possibility of mud flows from the recent burn.
Trueheart
The share price is down considerably but I'm hanging on because I think it's a great long term play. And its COVID friendly.
Trueheart
Hey, Stuffie,
I'm glad to hear you made your statement and voted!
This year I'm voting Chicago style: Early and often.
You're doing the right thing by isolating. Family and friends showing positive for COVID is too darn close.
Take care,
Trueheart
Hey, BnB,
Looking at Ashville's location in the hills, how is it that the city has flooded?
Thanx,
Trueheart
Hey, BnB,
I'm glad to hear that your home was unscathed. The people of the Louisiana and Mississippi coasts have suffered greatly from the seeming steady track of hurricanes.
I've seen the advertising for the leaf guards. It's good to know from a user that they work.
Honeydos are never-ending but they do put a smile on the boss' face.
A happy wife means a happy life!

Hey, BnB,
Did your home suffer damage?
Trueheart
Get a new doctor!
Hope you're enjoying your day.

To the new way of working and leading out lives during the pandemic, I add lyrics from a Bob Dylan song,

Hey, BnB,
Yeppers, it's about time the trophy said "I do" after all the false trips to the altar.
Which reminds me of a joke about Elizabeth Taylor from a Hollywood wag.
"Poor Liz, always a bride and never a bridesmaid."

Good day, EZ,
The news is good: Management and unions overcoming mask problems and working together to get product out the door.
It's interesting that autos are selling like hotcakes during this trying time.
Be safe and keep safe.

The problem with opals, it it rooted in some ancient Chinese lore, sorta like Feng Shui and entry doors?
Yes, you did say Cuisinart but as you have a cold it does not appear to be a mistake in judgment so you get to keep the points you earned in round one.

A pan guaranteed to last 101 years?
That seems like a lot of hooey as you wouldn't be around to trade it for a new one when it goes kaput.
I suppose the pan could go on the heirloom list. I can see the scene in the lawyer's office, the dispensing of the goodies in the will. He reads off the pan that goes to your favorite niece, seeing her frown as she was looking for the opal brooch.

Three years is a long survival time for non stick pans. It seems to me it gave you good service even though you tossed it in the dishwasher.
