    Just another junk chainsaw

    Referencing top handle saws, my Stihl MS192T seems to have a torn boot between the carb and saw ("intake manifold"). Flexing of the handle seems to be the issue is my guess. Curious if anyone knows if Stihl modified the boot to tolerate the flexing?

    You Know You Are Old When

    Growing up the party line that we had consisted of us and the neighbors on the same road, which indicated a physical requirement, but it let us know our neighbors better (when we needed to butt in and ask for the line). Later there were other people from nowhere near that were on the line that...

    Those are the same three CC saws that I carry.

    2022 Bronco sport review

    I guess to them I have been driving collector cars my whole life. Currently 1983, 1999, 2003 and 2008. Wife's car to me is a "brand spanking" new 2015. I referred to it as our "new" car to a neighbor the other day, they laughed and reminded me it is 10 years old.

    You Know You Are Old When

    For me I think it is that the research time is way, way more than before the internet. Back in the day if I didn't know how to do something, I asked someone who did a few questions and went at it. Now it can be analysis paralysis.

    Anyone else have an unusually large number of hummingbirds this year?

    I often see parts of bugs in the feeder trays when I clean them out. I figure it is off of their bills (technically they have bills, not beaks).

    Dogs.

    Or a dog with thick fur. My neighbor tried that with his malamutes, after a year for looking for his dogs every other day, he put up a fence.

    Same here, when my wife has to get in the passenger seat of one of my vehicles, she will invariably ask something like how to turn on the heated seat. Me: the what?

    Rant on shipping

    Sometimes it is a week to go across the country (WA to NJ), the last time it took 1 day to get to that NJ distribution center, plus a few days to deliver. When it is a week, I am on pins and needles. They will take a wire, but that is expensive and a pain. I wish they did free ACH transfers.

    Rant on shipping

    Maybe thinking that if the envelope was delivered, the recipient might not open it for a while, giving them more time for the washed check to process? I am curious if you mailed it at a Post Office? Every 3 months I need to send my LLC's funds to my trust company so they can report federal...

    Wait until we talk about old man's flat butt and needing suspenders because belts have nothing to hold onto.
