    What did you buy this week?

    I got this today. Vevor top link. Mine the pipe got damaged and I got tired of fooling with it. I'll keep mine for a spare. I removed that safety catch on it and didn't use hoses or banjo hardware because my hoses connected to it fine. $142 from Walmart online.

    Tractors and wood! Show your pics

    Yes it was a goof. They're pretty within a few years and super fast growing and inexpensive but a bad choice like bamboo, privit and lots of other things.

    What did you buy this week?

    Years ago I had a friend, engine builder and SS/A drag racer. The started his engine one day and it didn't sound right, then saw something coming out of a header collector. With pliers he pulled out a shop rag. Then he remembered he laid it over the Holley Dominator the night before.

    Diabetes

    She's had an Endocrinologist & family Dr. The point I was trying to make was her blood sugar levels were ok with 50 in am, 50 in pm. Then Glycoshield she uses less insulin. Yesterday zero insulin just Glycoshield. Hopefully with that no more insulin. The CGM charts blood sugar throughout the day...

    Diabetes

    My wife was on 50cc insulin (Novalin 70/30) at breakfast and dinner. Now since she takes a dropper of Glycoshield she takes 15cc insulin in morning and that's all. She wears a Libre 3+ CGM and her alarm goes off in evening about 11pm sometimes 3am and her level is below 70...usually 60s...

    This morning this was blocking our driveway. No wind at all but yet another huge limb snapped off of a Bradford Pear I planted many years ago going along driveway. My truck is hidden, full of brush. Two heaping loads and two more tomorrow. I was thinking today was going to be a relaxing day...

    What is some of your Pet Peeve's

    I have a friend, a great mechanic but ends every sentence with "and all like that". The strangest thing a few years ago a guy leak-down tested our propane system. All was well, but everything he said he incorporated the word "wise" into it. "I put the guage-wise on your propane line making sure...

    Women

    I'd have a blast! Show up with this guy...or better yet 2-3. Close & lock door. Then for 2 hours make moaning sounds and screams. Another time so everyone sees bring in a Sawzall, duct tape & large trash bags. Play screaming sounds with Sawzall running. Walk out with ketchup on the blade...

    What did you buy this week?

    Two years ago we bought a new Kia Rio. It has 9K miles on it and since new it's had a "dead spot" in acceleration if you're driving any speed, hit brakes then nail it, it hesitates then goes. It can be dangerous pulling out somewhere and a car/truck appears. JMS makes a module that you unplug...
