Showed a house in Plaza Midwood last week and the seller had a pet raccoon that kept stealing my pens

My bathroom tile grout turned a weird pink color overnight

I was regrouting my shower with a pre-mixed white grout from a big box store, following the instructions exactly. After letting it cure for about 12 hours, I came back and the whole area had this light pink tint to it. I think some old rust from the pipes might have seeped into the water I used to clean my tools, and that got into the grout mix. Now I have to scrape it all out and start over. Has anyone else had grout change color because of something in their water?

My backup drive gave out in the middle of a project in Chiang Mai

It was a 2TB WD My Passport I've had for three years. The thing just stopped showing up on my laptop two days ago, right before a big client deadline. I had to run to a mall here and pay about $150 for a new one and a data recovery service to try and salvage the files. Anyone have a more reliable brand they've stuck with for a while?

Appreciation post: I still use the old Collins Pro Line 21 manuals for certain troubleshooting

Everyone at my hangar in Mobile switched to the newer digital manuals, but I keep finding errors in the wiring diagrams on the new system. The old paper binders for the Pro Line 21, specifically the 2008 revision, have the correct pinouts for the comm box that the digital version keeps getting wrong. Has anyone else run into this, or am I just getting unlucky with my terminal assignments?
