Bill hope no one hurt bad and traffic not too bad.
Doug, bad news on the car a/c gone and 100F weather
Drew Has a lot to do with whether people will stay home when sick. Not always happening around here, by passing year end parties because of Covid. Masks help but no substitute for distance, stay home when sick etc.
Thomas I get 6 to 8K per set on the road bike @ about $150+ per set.
Mike porch on back burner? good luck with cars and shopping. No experience on Island life
Phil good luck with storm
Ron we just thinned the herd here as well, went from 4 big book shelves stuffed to 3 book shelves not completely full. Local high school took a lot of them. Nice sunset
Ted hope it warms up to fix the fence.
Paul SEL pilot. I too like to know how things work, plane you were flying has much more capability than any I have flown (C402). Outside decorations are visible from street in front, back not so much but what we do is for us.
Billy sorry to hear about continued feet issues, good to hear about short hike. No Coco?
RNG lots of projects, hope oil pan shoes soon, Super Bowel not far away now. Hope the solar upgrade goes well. And you get some rain!
Ken good to hear Christmas lights up. Hope they weather the storm.
Ted hope family circus does not intrude too much on shop time.
Randy have fun puttering.
PJ nice schedule for December. Sorry to hear about the restaurants closing
RS opportunity rich environment, hope you are able to be productive given your constraints
Randy B-25 has short exhaust pipes and no collector or muffler, more noise for the size

Dennis haven't talked wife into tree yet, didn't last year.
Paul, nice house
Kyle hope your order works ok on Ebay, and you get it running. I am puzzled, .006 will give you piston slap, but not hurt compression. Was there something wrong with the old ring?
Ted I have days like that, now that I am not working not so much

Have fun with tree.
David can be a pain getting parts. You have to order cable and connectors or do you have local source.
Randy I hand shovel ashes out of insert into steel can then let it sit a week before empty.
prayers for all, especially Jay/Peg, Kyle's daughter, David(moss)/remodel, RNG/fire, Ron/hearing/son, Jim/sister & family, Phil/wife's eyes, and Country.
stay safe and healthy you all.
