Watch out for snakes! My friend got baby copperhead bit picking green beans. Still had to go to ER, then a bigger hospital. Sorry to hear about Coco. pick some good movies to watch Post Op. You want a tight fit for your fan/shaft fitment, A set screw will do wonders on a shaft with a flat...

Rich, my friend taught me to take about 4 OTC ibuprofen (if your body is tolerant), to "break" the tension of the back muscles, then every 8 hours there after take a couple until you get some relief.

My friend adopted a rescue pound retriever, part Golden part Lab. That dog would chew anything that my friend had touched, whenever my friend was away and the dog got bored. Cost my buddy a mint in garden hoses, ice chests, work gloves, etc. He finally put a hot wire around one portion of his...

Billy, glad you had a great time, and have a new DIL. Good times. Popgadget, hope your son now calls his girlfriend, his fiance. L4N, prayers for your DIL. Hope your work is not too much work. Sounds like you're a "seasoned" vet at that job. Eric, we have plenty of summer left here...

A friend ordered a new refrigerator back in March at Lowes. Still hasn't come in. They have now told her middle of July.

Prayers for aliens wife and sodamos wife. I see where the new Alzheimer drug could cost up to $56,000 a year.

My son at The Oasis parking lot.

Saw friend at work ask me if I wanted to buy his little used car and I asked him what do you got? He said it's an 08 Toyota Yaris plain Jane no options except for AC and a radio. But he said it drives great air conditioning blows cold tires are good. And he said he only wanted $1,500. I told...

hopefully your Lull will take a long lull away from your bank acct from now on.

First of all, they made the name where no one can remember it.... Mind Game Prayers for Sophie. And our crew. RNG, maybe Randy would have an original pair of "Brougham" metal insignias to go along with vinyl top. Maybe if I can get the dents smoothed out, I could buy a similar color...

Move your post to the Ventrac subdirectory.

Roy, hope you get feeling better soon. D-Day. "The end of the beginning" Churchill. The cemeteries in France are full of those who gave all.

I would love to see a picture 2Lane. What year did you buy it?

Eric, I like that surfboard idea! Maybe some longboards for additional shade? Maybe dualing kayaks like PJS and wifey.......Wish I'd learned to surf in my early years. We spent our spare time water skiing instead.

Went to a graduate's party, ate too much BBQ, came home and crashed on the couch for 3 hours.... Got my endoscope from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MYTHWK4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 It seems handy. It came with a USB adapter plug to charge it. I charged...

Hope Honolulu is good to y'all. Prayers for Sophie. I had 2 pet box turtles as pets, for years, in our fenced backyard. They would come up on the back porch to eat when we fed the dogs. Hope your son has fun playing music.

Heck, I'd consider using it as an elevator, parking it semi-permanently in the stairwell, and keeping the battery charged. Good find.

The striped look looks cool to me too! But the black, if shiny gloss, would probably be my pick....But we all know it's what wifey wants. Hope and pray all the joints start healing on you guys, and for the broken hearts from the loss of pets. Prayers for Bupps, and Wng for his hernia/skin...

No sushi for me. I do eat cooked fish/sushi rolls.

I really liked BJ Thomas. When my daughter was about 3 or 4 years old, I taught her the raindrops keep falling song.

So just a quick situation report. I still haven't painted the Beast, but I did finally get a new gas cap for three bucks. I mowed this past weekend maybe a couple of acres in between a lot of trees. It never even gets close to hot maybe it gets up to about 184 Fahrenheit. I have to say it...

For a moment, I thought you were making vegan floor tiles. :)

PS. If I ever come over that way, I'll be sure to call first, since you have that new shotgun. hee hee.

Brandi, good to hear from you and thanks for the photo updates. Been wondering about you. Glad your busy Retired = RE - Tired (tired all over again). That porch looks like work too. LOL. You might be low on your lumber prices, from what I've been hearing. Red oak looks nice. Do you have...

Roy, hoping whatever you got, ends up being a mild case. Ted, Don, sorry about your knees. A twisted thought in my head was you two attempting a sack race together....not. Sorry. You both know we want you both up to full power. Don, congrats on the cards. Does a bum knee mess up hand and...

I'm hoping to keep the old Impala patched up for her, but yes, she thinks she needs a 4WD truck.... "Any port, in a storm" for hail.

I got the new fuel pump about an hour after pulling the old one out. Had to crawl in trunk, to the pull off port lid. Wish they'd make it a wee bit bigger but just glad I didn't have to drop the tank. The new pump has a new type plug in, so I had to splice in a pigtail to the cars wiring...

Flat track on NBC sports gold tonight. Chicago half mile.

PJS, Popgadget and you other music fellows, My buddy got one of these Line 6 Powercabs, and so far he loves it. He has the guitar, and an array of pedals/processors already...

And thank you for your prayers.

Yesterday morning the daughter and I mowed down the jungle our yard had become....just in time before last night's storms made it too muddy again. I'm trying to send you guys on the east coast some rain. If you don't get enough, just drive your truck down here and park the bed under one of...

I can't believe I finally caught up! Been chipping away at it yesterday and this morning. Wifey knows if she wants my attention, she'll call my name in a strong dialect and wait for eye to eye contact. :) I drove to Austin on 290 there, and back through New Sweden. Plenty of cornfields, but...

OUCH... Ditto. Welcome mwemaxx. News of the day for our family....We went to our son's school award ceremony this morning. I took off work. There were at least 50-75 kids being awarded different awards for best reader, most improved reader, etc... I was starting to wonder which little...

BOBCAT TOOLCAT TRACK SYSTEM Equipment Part - J.M. Wood Auction Company, Inc. Just thought I'd post a link for you toolcat guys

You could always add a vertical support, at the corner where the 2 pieces of plywood come together. Canned goods get heavy.

Thanks Don. Looking for a 5+ year old, <100,000 miles, that gets decent mpg (25ish). Hopefully less than $10,000. I've had to drag my old impala out, from under the shade tree.....hoping it can get me to work, until I can find a car. 332,500 miles. I saw a Kia Soul, but it is one of the...

Like Paul, I've been so busy, I get behind here.... Still sore from wreck. Looking for clean used car. They are expensive now. No shortage of rain here. Need to mow, too wet. Prayers for mostly's wifey, Stepp's son, Bupps, Randy, Drew, Ted's knee, Doug and wifey, those in need, and our...

Roy, so sorry about your pup. Condolences. It is sad that dogs don't live longer lives. I know they are loved like kids by people like you. I just have a moment to bring y'all up to date on the insurance dealings (of my wife and I getting rear-ended). After talking every angle with The Geico...

L4N, put a little used antifreeze in your pressure washer pump before you store it.

Sorry about Bella Roy, hope for the best outcome. I'm at the doctor, getting my situation documented. I told nurse my shoulder/elbow/wrist pain was at a 2 or 3. Hope it goes away. I feel like my upper body has a continuous buzz or hum. My memory is bad right now. Having to write things...

The guy should throw in some lumber, or old pallets too maybe. :)

Seen on east coast recently....

Thanks for clearing that up. I was a bit confused for a bit.

I looked up the Pakistani version, still less than $1000 US dollars. Some of the price increase due to emissions, for which they modernized the engine.

I really like it. Still lurking. What's going in the gap on the right, by the window? Dishwasher?

Thanks RNG, Bird, Drew, and all for the words to the wise.

I too, mixed up a concoction and sprayed the yard. Hoping to kill weeds, bahia grass and dallis grass. So far, it seems to be working on Bahia well, and dallis too. On Friday afternoon, The wifey and I were rear ended on the freeway in Houston. All the traffic had been stop and go, but had...

Thanks for letting us know about T-mobil. I'm about to kick Boost mobil to the curb. In store person was useless. Phone sometimes won't send or recieve text messages at all, or sometimes you get a flood of incoming all at once (that were late).... Maybe you are out of the doghouse...

Well, I have found out that, even with the belt off, the motor will sometimes just buzz and not turn. Internal starter circuit, which utilized to centrifugal weights attached to the contacts. Fredericksburg has turned into a tourist trap. But that CFS looks good. I love them, but rarely eat...

This is great! Repurposing at it's finest.

I've always wondered about the Chondas. A 229cc bike should do better than 65mph. As long as you enjoy it, and it gets you back home, that's what matters.

She's got too much to learn yet, not relaxing yet....I think she's giving me a few more gray hairs on top. She's doing great, but has a few things we need to work on....checking her blind spot, keeping an eye on the rear view mirrors, and learning good driving etiquette. My dream job. I was...

Don, the non mask wearers are everywhere here in Giddings and College Station. Brings forth the thought of all the liability. I remember when SpaceLab fell. Prayers for an ocean landing. Yes, I've seen that video of Knopfler talking about the dude. I love the Dire Straits. Got my daughter...

I really like Don's references too. I find myself telling my wife and other folks about info gleaned from Don's references.

I asked my wife about gravel and she said hahaha.... I envy you.

All these kitty cat pictures......

"VAERS data alone cannot determine if the vaccine caused the reported adverse event". Don, there's no way to tell at this point, how many died because of the shot. It's just that they died sometime after getting it. I just heard of a guy my friend knew, age 77, had his first shot, but got...

Renze just saved a lot of people a lot of money. All the wives are happy!!!

Finally got all my Milwaukee tools in. I have never spent so much (that I can remember) on tools.....and I even got the 150 discount. Here is the ratchet and the big impact. I got a small 3/8 impact too. I used it to put the new flange bearings on the mowers roller. Here's a link to the 3/8...

Hope Mrs RS had a nice birthday. Indian food? Curry what? :) 6 @ $450 No thanks. Zero turn batteries don't necessarily need to be light weight. Chainsaws, yes, big heavy mowers no... Good for y'all. Hope the new home works out. Butcha talkin' 'bout Willis? At what point does Boo Boo...

Remember, on Acetylene, only open it 1/4 turn max.

Howdy Ron! Always liked red wing blackbirds, or baltimore orioles, or whatever they are. Daughter's prom went well. Made it home safely before midnight. Eric, nice bluebells. Even though the small area I tilled was 10" deep mud, I went ahead and planted my tomato plants. I hope they don't...

He did offer to overnight. I wanted to hear him say that, to prove that they had them on the shelf, but then I told him ship them 2 day express....It is raining so much here, nobody is mowing anytime soon. I should get them on Tuesday.

We got a very windy 2" of rain last night, and more to come today. Yesterday, I ended up having to replace one of the bathroom sink faucets. Not too bad of a job, but squeezing thru the cab'nt door was awkward. I couldn't find a matching one, so I put the closest cheapie I could find. Also...

Thanks for the tip on the Weldcote helmet. I'm always checking the valves on the bottles too.

Allan Girdler, former editor in chief of Cycle World Magazine passed away. Allan Girdler, 1937-2021

Here's a good report that says to only use white sugar when feeding hummingbirds. Plain white sugar in water. Amazing Nature & Wildlife 💥💥 : This is a hummingbird unable to retract her tongue, which is a sign of fungal spores that have germinated on her tongue or in her gullet caused by folks...

Your handwriting is looking good. :)

So does that even the score between the guys and gals???

MotoAmerica road racing is now having a fairing and saddle bags class for the last 2 years or so. So far, I believe the Indian is the hot ticket in that class this year.

Progess! I can tell your welding talent is really good right now.

No snakes allowed here, they eat chicken eggs. Was glad to hear Coco is getting back to "her" normal. Hope things get better. I need to mow today, still waiting on mower roller bearings for The Beast. I guess I will break out some other equipment if the fields are not too soft. We just got...

Which helmet you prefer? Our old Millers (14 years old) gave up. So did my helmet I bought. I ordered a cheap, smaller window Miller online for only $86. Waiting for it to come in. Had good reviews.

My former boss bought one to go on a two up, long trip around the "rest of the world" with his wife. He has already done solo about half the world on a yamaha XT 250 enduro. He's had the big Tenere, and more motorcycles than anybody I know. But he's been patiently waiting just for this T7...

You guys talking about gloves....My new friend from South Africa highly recommends the Dunlop brand of rubber boots. He says they are "all day comfortable" for him. They go from the cheap price, to quite expensive. Here's the cheap ones...

Stepp, I am so sorry. I don't even have words, or know what to say about this. Prayers for him, his wife, and your whole family. I pray for a miracle. I know you will do everything you can. I found this, but I'm sure you're pouring over every piece of information you can find. Cardiology...

Prayers for the work to do. Randy and Drew too. The Beast has been mowing, but right now, I'm waiting on 2 new flange mount bearings for the deck's rear roller. Real estate is crazy. Don, are you thinking of selling??? Talked to a friend who was born in Austin. He says that some well...

Drew, prayers for your procedure tomorrow. When you're done.....come on this way and keep mowing......and bring happy hour with you. My 2 weeks since 2nd shot was today. Prayers for Randy, and our team, and our Country. OK, daughter drove the last 35 miles home, her first time on the road...

Me too, it was much faster before computers... Their system is down and now we have waited a total of 3 hours today...and counting....

Yes, bc, ss, an a multitude of other papers. Current residence affidavit, proof of school enrollment, electric bill, proof of insurance, Many papers on parent taught driver's ed...argh. And now their system went down...we may have to wait until infinity...

For the flange bearings, The spacing between bolt centerlines is 3"

The Beast has a 72" front deck which has a large steel roller on the back side. It needs new 1" flange mount bearings on both ends. I was going to try and fit some popular one's, but the spacing is too big to fit, even if you want to drill new holes. So I found some online at...

Speed Queen. Randy, more prayers for you. I'm stuck in the driver's license office for the 2ND TIME today. Argh. Daughter's learning permit. Looks like another hour and a half or more. Y'all keep posting to give me something to read! PJS, I tried to grow hair longer, but it flapped around...

Drew, our church has been opening back up in stages. At Christmas, they had multiple times available, and encouraged families to sit together, with distance to the next family. Alternating pews were marked and closed to provide distance. We had hand sanitizer spray at the entries, and all were...

Prayers for Randy. Prayers that his medical team get a handle on his situation, and make the best decisions. Prayers for a miracle. Prayers for his family, and his comfort. The prices of enclosed trailers, flabbergast me... Make sure the door is tall enough for the ranger. It used to be I...

The Chihuahua was hiding in the dirty clothes closet with a couple of my daughter's socks.

I'm still learning so many new things in life. I went to home Depot to try and buy the Milwaukee impact and ratchet tools but you only get the special deal they are offering online and not at the store. The store has most every Milwaukee battery powered tool in some form of lockup in a cage...

LoL. Mostly, very glad to hear about wifey. Hooray! We got 3.3" of much needed rain. I'm burning a pile of mostly oak scraps. Got the HF engine going on the tiller. Too wet to till. Son went fishing, but we had a river flowing into and out of the pond yesterday, so no luck. We have so much...

Wow, that's a lot of work, and the price of lumber is high... Glad you got it mostly done.

Thomas, watch out for boo boo. sounds like you have a nature preserve. I was able to buy some .45ACP today. They limit you to 2 boxes.

No sauerkraut for this German guy....My wifey says cold processed is best for health. Clausen pickle people make some cold processed. Mustard, chili cheese Or mustard and pickle relish, sweet or dill and a spear of sharp cheddar.

Eric, SSS. Shoot shovel shutup. If the townspeople complain, make them a raven meat pie and don't tell them what's in it. Sorry about your lamb. I would be shotgun mad. Sorry about your friend. Good prayer list, and prayers for Buppies too. Bird, be careful on that ladder. Remember, only...

eenie meenie miney moe???

Toppop, you are always so upbeat...Prayers my friend for smoother seas on your medical charts.

Illegal alien lizard? Sorry about your DIL. Prayers. My deceased aunt and uncle made all kinds of pickles. When they were out of fresh garden cucumbers, they would buy a big gallon of dill pickles, take the top off and drain out a bit of juice and maybe 1 pickle, and they put some sliced...

For you musicians, I found out that musician's Friend has an eBay store that will have sales prices that their regular website won't have. I saved $100 on the guitar, while their regular website had it full price. Go figure....

Same for us. Hopefully today. Don, did you get hail?

Here she is.

Real estate is going crazy here, makes me wonder how long this boom will last??? High lumber prices, Covid slowdowns, etc...I guess it is hard to get new homes built right now. I might call my builder friend in Austin to see how he's doing. I am glad to hear you're improving, but sorry you're...

You are a great engineer! Good job.

I believe it would be really handy to dig alongside a wall.....carefully!

I'm starting to totally understand mate. Hope she can be pain free. Hospice sure did wonders for my uncle recently. Keeping him pain free until he passed. And don't chew your fingernails. Glad you got it cleaned in a hurry. I need to do some major work on my lateral field. Sold a 10x10...

Prayers for mostly's wifey! And for LS's knee. Drew, hope you can keep the mouth pain at bay. It can be a rough few days. So I have been feeling achy since Sunday. Figured it was from wrestling with the Kawi Mule. I got my 2nd Moderna shot yesterday, and woke up extra achy, headache, and...

Dinner!

Don, besides the yucca and palm trees dying, I have noticed the invasive bamboo is dead for now. Not sure if it will grow back. But the roses are blooming like crazy after the freeze here!

One of the "poor" cars my mom bought when I was young, was a used Studebaker Lark. I was young, but I believe it had a straight 6, 3 on the column and overdrive. No A/C. Mostly, hope your wife's condition can be treated for the better. Prayers. Hope Ron is OK. I got the kawasaki mule done...

Very tired. Trying to get caught up here. have to get up at 5:15am. Prayers for our team, especially Mostly's wife.

Prayers for your wife. Sorry I'm 2 days late to pray.

He's got a ways to go, to win Peoria... :)

Nice pics! If they planted me near a tree, I would probably kill it....too salty! Miss Ron. PJ, nice pond. Prayers for being pain free. Nice! bet your getting stronger. funny. Dinner! Been busy! Took off work today. Got a lot done today. Picked up floorscrubber in Austin, got to eat...

Glad to see progress. I was wondering how you are doing. thanks for updating us.

Thanks Mostly, we had a great time at church. The contemporary service had more attendees than the other two, got to see a lot of peeps that don't normally come because they have gone off to school. Glad you had a nap. The ham was good.....along with everything else. Happy Anniversary.

I was getting those, and age 54, with good cholesterol numbers. I cut out caffeine, and got well. Decaf for me baby! Back when I was in my prime, a beautiful gal (who looked like Uma Thurman), wanted to date me. She smoked. I finally had to tell her that I didn't date smokers. She wasn't...

Thanks for letting others know what solved the problem. Sorry you had to split your tractor.

Thank You too!.....For helping with a cause so far away from your homeland.

Happy Easter All! My daughter is playing guitar in church today. Having a spiral sliced ham, but leaving the brown sugar glaze off. Baked potatoes and roasted asparagus. Maybe a homemade cake topped with fresh raspberries later. mostly, wish I had your stamina. Drew, thanks for the...

All it takes is 1 big rain, and the dam will be overflowing. We are very dry down here. It keeps missing us, or else giving us thunderstorms that pass through fast, hit or miss.

Hope they are all non cancerous. Prayers. Sorry about your neighbor. I hate cancer. I pray often for cures and healing. Happy Birthday to you all! They had a poll at work, about reducing Covid rules. One guy called the radio, and said he was a landlord, and the Covid rules designed to...

I should probably go...I went 20 years ago, for a "comprehensive" look/see. I was alright, but the bill nearly killed me.

Looks like I need to loan you my pink handled maul....in case your splitter takes too many pulls... :)

Shouldn't you be in a hospital? Hope you get better fast. I'd be hauling arse too, contemplating while I sped, just how much do we want DQ novelties. Concerning the cushion, I'd be practicing with my pellet gun. Keeping it nearby. Sorry 'bout your kitty. Buppies, sorry about your side...

Sorry about your headache, mine was on the sides of my cabeza, just above the ears....and my cough made it feel like my head was going to pop. And all these years, I thought you were 46....Happy b'day to your daughter. My daughter practiced for playing in church yesterday, and this morning...

MotoGP starts tomorrow in Qatar. Not cheap to watch. Their package costs $164.94 for the season....I guess the Europeans are rich. American Flattrack on NBC Sports Gold, IIRC, the whole season costs $10. Not as good cameras and number of them, but still good enough to watch and get you on...

$40.00 for 5 gallons hydraulic tractor gear oil (only needed 1.5 gallons) $8.00 hydraulic filter $10.00 ($7.99 + some shipping) New A180 belt for the 72" front mower deck...purchased from vbeltguys.com ____________ $357.00 running total. I still want to give it a paint job, nothing special...

Those Klipsch horns wouldn't fit in RNG's vanagon. LOL. McIntosh sold a LOT of amps, tube and solid state, and they still command good prices.

I don't like lock downs, give me masks and distancing and with those, the ability to still go/do what I need. Got the Mule 3010 running after all. Reading the service manual, the fuel pump wiring goes through the flywheel ignitor pickup, to see if the motor is actually running. If the motor...

My V6 3.4 Impala got 25mpg, my 4cylinder 2.5 Altima gets 26-27. Impala definitely has a better ride. Took daughter to her math student. She tutors on Saturday. She is currently grounded, from leaving campus at lunch, or having boyfriend come over. Another week. She is the type of person...

On an Altima, you have to pull out a plastic inner fender for the oil filter. Surprised to see the cases coming down. Brazos county is adding thousands of previously unreported cases. I'm guessing the college students didn't bother getting tested maybe? Wifey got her 1st shot today. She...

Possibly a throttle position sensor, hope they tell you exactly what went wrong.

Happy B'day to your dad, I know it's tough with covid and aging, but I hope he got some good food. Your FIL has a treasure trove of human powered antiques. I've powered one of those clamp on grinders many times. Mostly, I mostly skied on Connaly, and EP, but I always reached for a Maharajah...

Prayers for your wife, family and her medical staff.

I finally got the hydraulic oil and filter changed. I had to take back the initial filter I bought, which had 1" threads, to get one with 3/4"-16 threads. I ended up with a carquest hydraulic/transmission filter, no bypass. Bought some #68 Hydraulic gear oil. No telling how old the old fluid...

It was a great, long weekend. We ate BBQ burgers twice, pizza once, and had 2 chocolate and 1 ice cream cake......whew.

You got to pick your battles. There is the part that helps keep you in shape though.... Thank you for the prayers. My daughter is still needing them. Prayers for your wifey's eye. Happy Birthday to Sophie! I hope she's having a great day. LS, hope your knee swelling goes down, and you can...

Then all you old men won't get to yell at kids, "KID, GIT OFF OF MY LAWN!!!!" The hippo would take all your fun at being mean away. :)

The taxpayers are paying for the vaccine. If you have insurance, they want the insurance to pay for administering the shot. Mine was done at a private clinic.

Happy B'day to the grandson. We are having the party for my son's today. Who doesn't like a good classic song every now and then.... Drew, what is the world going to do with all the waste from lithium batteries? The mines alone exact a pretty hefty fee to the environment. It might end up...

I'm new to Steiners, and I'm in the process of fixing up a 2WD 230 model. It was sitting for years and I took a big chance and I bid on it in an auction and got it. I call it the Beast. It is big and heavy duty. It picks up the 72" mower deck on the front end easy. (I need to change...

I'm looking for Bilbo and Frodo...or even Pippen. Did you wear your Gandolf hat over there? My electric bill did not have any surcharges, or bond debt repayment. And most Texans that I know, ignore Texas monthly...except maybe all the debutants in Houston baby.

This is a pretty awesome article. Amazing that the gov't forwarded nearly a billion to Moderna to kick it in high gear. From the article:.......Makes me wonder if they'll pay the tax payers back anything???

Welcome 3T and arto. Ken, hope you get feeling better. PopG, you might plan for a couple days of feeling blah after your shot. Maybe you'll be fortunate. TxDon, I had an infestation last year for some reason. Killing hundreds around my property. They also hide in dead post oak tree...

Tell your Son In Law that a guy in Texas is very thankful for his service to our country! Thank you all for the birthday wishes for my son!

Kiwi's win another America's Cup Sailing competition. They are pretty good at it. 4 in a row. Congrats you rascals. :)

Stihl used to have the best calendars...

Eric, I can't see the attachments??? I hope that is correct. I hope my cough goes away, but it might be allergy related. Thanks for the all the birthday greetings to my son. He's opened his 2 airsoft M16 rifles. I shot the plastic pellet at a cardboard shipping box, it went clean through 1...

Thanks again for the replies. I found out the unit I can get cheep is a Carrier, 18K BTU, but only at 13 or 14 SEER. The demo guys just CUT the line sets, so the freon all leaked out. Dummies. Also cut the wiring harness that communicates to outdoor unit. Trying to figure out where to...

You moved fast on that one. Hope you enjoy it. I only wondered about the towing capacity. A Borazon wheel works nice for sharpening. But you have to stop cutting before you dull the teeth too much or take away their temper. I still want a carbide tooth chain. To be honest, I'm almost glad...

'Bout time to crank this up!

So would they keep the time like it was (during the fall/winter), or keep it like it is in the summer? I like it like it is in the winter, with the sun coming up earlier. That would make our sunsets range from around 5:30 - 8:00pm.

Please tell your friend to give the Citabria to a museum and park it. A man I loved died in one. They have a wooden fuselage that is prone to cracking. He was a retired Air Force Lt-Col, and had about 10000 hours. He bought the plane to teach his daughter, me, and do some light aerobatics...

We got our electric bill, and it was a little bit high at $295. I told the wife that I was glad the power was off half the time.

Bupps, Drew, LS, Alien, prayers for your pains.

The lip seal is usually the problem and the cylinder bore must be 100% free of defects for a new seal to work. I bored my cylinder twice and experimented with two different materials trying to make a lip seal but they need to be some sort of vulcanized rubber or something. Don, I just got my...

I don't know. I answered yes to the question, but the front office gal just checked for my signature. I will ask.

Bupps, I hope your doing ok, and the pain is tolerable. I'm getting a Modena shot tomorrow. Rather have a beer shot.

Yes, I actually prefer to watch the 450 class. I think Dallas Daniels will be up there, but tough competition for sho'!!!

Have any of you done any research as to which vaccine you would prefer, if you had a choice?

Consider me impressed too! Year round in Wisconsin??? Do you have a pic of the odometer? Does it have that many digits? I've told the story of my pastor's Moto Guzzi making it 152,000 miles, without cracking a gasket.....down here in the heat of Texas!!! It losts a seal on the rear shaft...

Welcome jcmaurice6 !

Thanks for all the great replies. Seems like Popgadget might have one of the oldest units talked about here. Lots of good advice, and not many problems. So here's another question. 2200 sq ft home. So/so insulated. All electric. I have a 4 ton central air/with a heat strip. It has to...

Hope the move goes smoothly. Oh my. Sorry sunny beaches. Scamming the unemployment too. Especially since they get extra money now. I wish they'd bring back tar and feathering in public. Good day then eh? jk.... Beautiful bird. Sounds like a neat trail. was it steep? Hope you get 'er...

I've heard some nay say these things, also saying parts and repairs are high. I'm wondering if those here would care to comment how long they have had theirs? Any problems? What brand? Also, how well do they heat? Like, do they heat down to 32F decently? I've read where it is important to...

I am a warm weather rider. No guilt about it. Cruising on a warm summer night around town is most comfortable. Daytona road races this weekend. Flat Track too IIRC.

Ken, really cool pics. Stay out of the doghouse!

Tell Mrs Wifey Popgadget happy B'day! Sounds like a good day playing music. Funny how you and PJ both play bass, and had trials bikes too. Price of gas going up will spur another oil boom down here. Trained a newby most all day. My son is working on his Rube Goldberg contraption at school...

Glad you made it there and back again...safely. Like wng noticed, I would enjoy a wheelbarrow windbreak too, if I was there. I saw where makita has a powered wheelbarrow. They will want one of those if they ever see one go past, on the road. 4' deep would be in the boggy/peat strata maybe...

Prayers for Bupps and Alien. 41F going to 72 maybe. Time to go to work. A guy wants me to drill through a stainless 10-32 bolt with a small drill, and then put a .008" wide o-ring groove on the bottom of the threaded end. I might change up his design a bit. Ron, I have a friend with 2 Honda...

I pray they can get to you, and help you figure out what's going on.

Good morning, a chilly 36F here, going to 70. Opened the blinds to let the sun warm us up a bit. Nothing like Check's temps. Church today. Plan to cook 2 of my favorite brands of sausage today. Wng, hope you got the holes plugged up. Glad y'all are getting your shots. Hoping you don't...

turn around, don't drown.

Grumpcat, hope you had your good riding gear on. DAYTONA SUPERCROSS starts in 20 minutes. On Peacock TV app.

Welcome to the forum Philm56. Yes, I'm seeing the Winco pto gennys are backordered. I used to be a PEC customer in Cedar Park, but have moved to Giddings.

Bird, I hope your medicine works. I miss Harvey too. Glad you got your nap. I guess they just don't build buzzbombs like they used to.....Keep your buzzbomb, just don't keep it plugged in. And I would guess it's in it's ninth life. Thank you for the prayers BTW. Should be a doozy. I keep...

I'm glad there was no major tidal surge. I heard on the news that most of the boat owners raced out to deeper seas. Hope the weather was nice for a fishing trip.

I was going to say, but I'll miss the snap, crackle and pops! ;)

My best friend just gave me a donkey BBQ (chewing on some azz). He yelled at me and told me to never, ever leave my compressor on when I'm not using it. He reminded me of another friend who's whole house and detached garage burned to the ground, caused by the compressor overheating and...

Rick, If I were you, and you can still get the overhaul kits for the compressors, I would buy one for each and park them on a shelf out of the sunlight. My old buzzbomb would still be running if they still had the kits available. But Campbell Hausfield decided that Husky buzzbombs should only...

Prayers you are feeling better. Does the big great barrier reef block your coast from tidal waves? I'm all out of boats. All my friends have motor boats, and I had sailboats (one with a motor). Chris, that's quite the drive from Lancaster to Deer Isle. Are there a lot of dears there? :)...

Compressor Central here, You need to look at the cylinder wall, and the piston ring or whatever it has for sealing. Some compressors you can buy a new drop in, thin wall cylinder/piston/lip seal. Your reeds look decent. Need more info.

my 3rd fast bike.

Richard, that's a lot of complex geometry in that suspension. I'm glad you know what you're doing. Glad you got the rod shortened.

Good job Brandi, "Let there be light"!!!

Sorry y'all are having problems. I'm just on my plain old PC, and I'm able to log in with my old password. Prayers for our team, and our country.

Yum yum, where did your neighbor catch his redfish? I know they stock them in freshwater lakes, they don't reproduce, but they grow well. Got my cannon back to full length.....whew.....avatars have to be square as of now. I don't like being square. :) It is wet, windy 48F tonight. We have...

I would love to see some pics of those!

The slope of the graph has gotten steeper since you know what... We'll all be driving wind driven cars. I'll make it on time to work today, I've got a 20 knot broad reach!!! Have to tack our way back home.

Bryan Utility filed bankruptcy to not have to pay ERCOTs invoice. A friend's wife works for a NG plant that sells wholesale, said they sold $32 million per day for first 4 days, then broke down when it got to single digit. I wonder if they will get paid....

Looks like the trend started the week after the election.

Ron, hope sassy enjoys her day. I'm waiting at the tire shop. Ran over some spiral wire and it was sticking out my tread just as I was about to get on the highway home.

Drew, if you want a home of your own, I hope you can find one that you love. Home Loan officers love people with zero debt, and some assets. Rich, a good bike ride is hard to beat, unless you get stuck in waist deep mud. Temps so warm here, we have the A/C on. I bbq'd about 15 hamburgers...

If that rod is hardened, you'll have trouble with the average die. A friend with a lathe, who knows how to thread would be good.

Speedaire seems to be better/quieter. I guess honing the bores worked so far. Still need a new belt.

Muhammed, you have your hands full. They grow up fast, but at first it doesn't seem so. I used to "look" young, then aged 30 years after having 3 kids. 😊

I would vote for getting some new threaded rods, 3" shorter.

You might have to log in again??? I'm confused on a few things too.

I took it out a few days ago, on a 68F degree day. It ran great, temp stayed low at just a hair past 160F.

Barber is on my bucketlist. I have viewed their museum website quite a bit.

Picture check....
