We contributed a bag of chips and a jar of salsa to the National Tortilla Day office party 😁👍 last night I stuffed pieces of steel wool in and filled the void with foam. I haven bought steel wool in about a dozen years — DAMN but the pads have shrunk!!! Later (indeterminate ly but possibly...

It doesn’t take much for my filter to get “partially dirty” here in the Smoky Mountains - we have three pollen seasons and I primarily use the truck on rough, dusty roads in the woods. if I clean my filter in March, it is turning yellowish green with pollen within a week if I use the truck...

We are thinking of changing cellphone providers and the intended provider’s current smartphone offering is an iPhone 14. now then, Mrs is not exactly an”technophobe“, but she and technology are *not exactly* on friendly terms. . . When I got her Moro-Z, she hated it, and after almost two...

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). Currently 55.8F, foggy/drizzly. up way too early, might as well post now! the week before last (before the firings and controversy at work), our first office party for National Tortilla Day...

The biggest sensor problem we have with the F150 is the Tire Pressure Sensor units in the tires! I wash/oil my filter twice a year, it seems to do the job. But I am only putting about 3000 miles a year on the truck, so it is getting cleaned every 1500 miles or so, which probably makes a big...

My existence is full of aberrations. People wonder why I often exclaim “BORING IS GOOD!”. I would like some “normal” boring problems. . . 🤪

I only have the new-style StarLink router, but no additional network extenders etc. my iPad works fine, no interruptions, it really pisses off my wife. . . The printer (HP8160) drops off the network occasionally and I have to manually reconnect it, too. Also, our RoKu is working fine (THANK...

I am just going to spray some pruning sealer on the holes once the experiment is over in a couple weeks and the trees should be fine. pick a couple trees at the far end of the property and give it a whirl!

When we got our F150 new back in 2016, one of the first things I did was order a K&N filter/intake system, which replaced the factory intake pipe with a more efficiently designed piece and a washable filter. It was good for about 1.5 MPG improvement (I did a 3-month baseline and I keep a...

No big deal - Mrs and I survived over two decades of gummint employment in NJ - this ain’t $#1+ 😂🤣😂 it is actually prettty funny watching who is sucking up, who is hiding - and who is “out sick with a COVID RELAPSE” conveniently this week. . . We are only temps, we really do not “NEED” this job...

Good morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). 68.2°F (see, I can hang out with the cool kids!)going up to upper 70s later. Waiting for the next couple of frosts to kill everything… I bought a maple tapping kit, but really don’t have any...

Some weird stuff has been happening on our StarLink network. Mainly with my wife’s devices (Samsung tablet and MotoZ phone). The devices connect to the network but have no internet access. If I throw the devices into Airplane mode, then enable WiFi, then take it off Airplane, they work. . ...

Our local sheriff posts arrest to Facebook. But even without that, the constant stream of strange vehicles for short visits (as short as 30 seconds) at all hours is a good clue. . . Not to mention several visits by multiple LE vehicles several times, and regular visits by CPS and Probation. . .

The gummint officials are the County ADA and the DA for five counties. . . 🤡🌎

Just before lunch, the boss lady from out-of-state was introduced to the room and did a walk around. When she and our supervisor came around to us, I immediately introduced myself as “the pain-in-the-butt troublemaker who complains about everything”. She laughed. New chatted a bit about nothing...

we moved 753 miles out of inner-city decay to Small-Town America in the mountains of Appalachia, only to have druggies across the road. . . In a subdivision with several gummint officials that don’t do nothing about it. 🤬💥

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). 50F, going to almost 70. next couple days supposed to be sunny, then a rainy weekend. Yay. Really nothing of any great note to post this morning. We are all looking at branches not roots...

Missed the arrival of honcho. Still have no idea what she looks like. Avoidance successful so far 😎

Cool toys!

I’m telling ya - ArmorAll. Especially since you are doing video 🤣😂🤣😂🤣

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). Mrs and I went up to the woodlot after church and got some things done. I pointed in 20 steel t-posts, and two wooden posts went in with the Horrible Fright post hole auger. I reclaimed some...

I already picked up a can, want to also sandwich in some steel wool to make it more chew resistant. But yeah - upside-down mortaring… yay . . .

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). Got a haircut that was several weeks overdue, and bought a new Craftsman 247pc ratchet set,a crew driver set, and 20 steel TPostsand a post pounder. Also got two plastic rollling growing bins...

Happy wife happy life

It wasn’t all that appreciated back in the day, either (hence my “stellar career path” 😂🤣)!

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). currently 22F, yesterday at this time it was 53. But yesterday someone was aiming a firehouse at us, today the stars are shining brightly. Survived another week at work. Apparently some big...

Or you could ArmorAll the top of the cabinet and dryer and maybe get something on America’s funniest Videos…

Today was day off to go for annual wellness checkup. I have a good old-fashioned head cold. NBD. Got dog up to woodlot after lunch after doctor, she had fun getting up there earlier in the day Than she normally does.

Dammit I gotta change those HVAC filters it sure is dusty in here..l

Good morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). 56f right now, going to 60s, Grey and drizzly day forecasted. getting an early start for annual checkup trip one state over (22 miles😁) . Actually too early - Mrs got up and Internet was out...

Looks like basic foam gunwale blocks and ratchet straps through thendoor openings…

You can always make your own out of standard metal housings and add something like this: Robot or human? Buy several, since they are all plastic and would be the “consumable” portion of the project, but they are cheap enough and you can customize the actual lighting the way you want with...

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). Thank you all for well wishes! Luckily it is just a good Ol’ fashioned head cold. Lots of supplements and other unmentionables and DayQuil/NyQuil and it is very manageable. A throwback to...

You’re getting rid of crud, I catch crud. Thus, balance is restored to the universe…

If I told you what I really expect of politicians my post would be unceremoniously and expeditiously removed…

I did say I caught a tolb in my nove, right? 😂🤣

Put a plastic bag over the mirror while parked, secure with rubber bands or clothespins. I have seen birds break car mirrors!

Good Norbing! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). started having a sniffle yesterday afternoon, today full on head cold, but not as bad as it could be because I started on upping supplements and other stuff, but an intense session in the sauna...

“Must be 1/87000 decided to recheck ours.” bit I thought someone really important said they would only go after billionaires, And that nobody under $400G would have their taxes go up? 🤪🤡🌎

Quad is easy, just need to pull it out and line it up better. It was just something to BMC about 😁

. . . When all to many of them start demanding the very same things that made where they came from an unlivable mess. . .

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). 25F, but should be a dry day. I will have to tuck the quad back into its tent a little better now that the “snow emergency” has expired. Leaving on the chains and plow should pretty much...

I will try to keep my excitement contained. . . But one of the more “uninspiring” events is being at work, processing someone’s tax documents, and seeing Federal Withholding Tax of $0.02 on savings account interest of $0.18, yet so many zeroes-to-the-right-of-the-decimal-point in our money gets...

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). Currently 41F and intermittent torrential rains. If it had been snow, our little plow on our quad would have been woefully inadequate - the amount of water that has been falling is quite...

IIRC carbon tetrachloride was the preferred cleaner of choice for physical TV tuners and channel switches. Probably banned for working too well…

Mine happens without the sun. Usually before 8 am, but it can happen any time of day, inside, outside, Sun/clouds/rain. The worst is when driving in heavy traffic…

No haircut again. Maybe during the week? Maybe next week? Fire is keeping house cozy warm, never dropped below 38F overnight, which is good because TORRENTIAL overnight rains . . . If it had been snow, our little plow would have been laughably inadequate!

Life is so much easier with the right tools

There is a song on this disc called “Rock Star School” which is quite entertaining and extremely truthful: https://www.amazon.com/Freaky-Tiki-Faces-Jim-Morris/dp/B0007LMM7Q i have the disc - I picked it up in a second-hand shop in Florida about 5 years ago, and only found it again last week.

Good Update Update! Mrs just told me our alert status has been changed to Winter Weather Advisory. If nothing else, this was good practice…

Good Update! a couple hours ago, we got a Winter Red Alert notice, just before taking mom shopping. So when we got back and unloaded our groceries, I got the quad ready. So I expect we will get rain. . . i also stuffed the stove with wood and kindling and tinder to light off when we get home...

Oh it definitely was gettin old by #30. . .

Cutting some gears?

house stuff has to get past senate and veto. no negotiating power thanks to that KY dude

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). Work was uneventful— boring is good! Excitement is overrated. Mrs. made reservations for VD dinner first seating, and mom needs to be taken shopping, so no work on the woodlot today. So, when...

I picked up a SanDisk IXpand unit in Walmart for about $50. It works, and with a standard USB on the other end I dumped all my images from my iPad onto my PC very easily.

Good to hear recovery process is starting off well! You really don’t need to pick up anything heavier than you tablet or a sandwich for the next week…

every couple weeks I get a sneezing fit for no reason. Anywhere from 5 to (my personal record I don’t ever want to beat) 46, averaging around 12-16. Something I inherited from my father… it started back when I was in my mid 20s. Yay.

Work is until mid-April, when Uncle has deemed he must be fed or else. . . Luckily we are not billionaires or waitresses, right? Otherwize the 87000 new Infernal Revenue agents might be after us. . .

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). getting into a good pattern in work, just rolling in cruise control from here on in. Still some hiccups with the computer system, but at least there are some work-around s that have gotten the...

I don’t know exactly who approves, but you can tell which ones are the approved sources because you are not allowed to deviate from what they are saying.

I am also planning on tapping a couple of black walnut trees and trying to make walnut syrup. Since we are too far south for sugar maples…

Work and weather have cut into production. This weekend will be dropping more trees, even if I don’t get them dragged and stacked, because I want to get them while the sap is still down. It will work out somehow - it just May take a little longer! The main thing is to get enough area clears...

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). It is a very balmy 59F right now, and the rain should start in about two hours or so. this morning’s zero-dark-hundred ear worm is “Back On The Chain Gang” by The Pretenders. It isnOK though...

Los Angeles.

DC. . . Goin in circles. . . there’s a metaphor in there somewhere. . .

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). 38F right now, going to be in the low 60’s but cloudy all day. Tomorrow is forecast for rain, just in time to make everything muddy for the weekend. So I will work on our voluntary gift to...

They pay us throughout training, so it isn’t too bad. It is just the aggravation. I was a Firearms and Us of Force Instructor during my LEO days, and have a bit of “perspective” on effective be ineffective training… and when your answers are changed by the computer program and you are getting...

Best thoughts heading your way!

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). 27F, allegedly going to 64F. It got to 61 yesterday, and due to Mrs still being a bit sore from the hike this weekend, we spent the after-work outdoor time on the deck soaking up some sun...

Something else for “clearing things up” (and there is a third tin behind…) 🤣😂🤣

Hot&Sour Soup is my test of whether hot not it is a good Chinese restaurant. I have found that if they can make a good H&S, everything else on the menu will be good. there was a restaurant we tried when we first moved here, and I wouldn’t say that the H&S was bad. . . It was WRONG. I don’t...

Iffy IS expensive! But a new chainsaw is definitely cheaper than a trip to the hospital…

Kroil not only works well, it smells good, too! PB smells like Linden NJ…

My commentary would have been oriented more toward regulatory issues and other aspects of “gummint”, which definitely would get my post moved. (9 years of my LE career were in Insurance Fraud Investigations, so I have multi-faceted cynicism about a great many things insurance-related, on both...

Sucks about insurance and if I say anything else someone will move my post elsewhere. . . 🤬💥

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). took the dog up to the woodlot. We were supposed to do some work, but by the time we got ambition to head up, I made the executive decision that “I“ was too sore to work, and Mrs gave ZERO...

I have to start on our taxes this week - time once again to turn the downstairs bedroom into a paper explosion. . .

I got a coffee for me, too 🤣😂

You misspelled “sore youngsters” 🤣😂

In no particular order:

On my extensive To-Do list is making new kitchen counters. Two years ago, I picked up three sections of vintage bowling alley, with dots and arrows. Still in the planning stages…

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). Running late for church - will check back sometime later!

It was a good day for a hike, chilly enough to keep the scarf on most of the way, warm enough by time we got to the top that the break was comfortable. A good workout, too. And I have been informed that I need to install chest straps on Mrs day pack - the left shoulder strap keep slipping on...

I have this one, but I bought it from our local chainsaw shop and it works quite well. It is lighter and longer than the 60-year-old Craftsman pole saw I had been using (but doesn’t have that handy limb-looper part)...

I didn’t think the air would hold any humidity once it got down that low… but really, I was just spoofing all the “But it’s a dry heat” comments 😁

We did, Mrs was quite sore afyer, and is still abed. I managed to get a blister on my right big to, drained it twice alreasy. NYried out some new “high-performance” hiking socks - gonna stick with my traditional WigWam RaggWool socks… 8.2 mile round trip hike. When Mrs gets up I will have her...

Yeah - but it‘s a dry cold 🤣😂🤣

I am pretty sure alcohol was involved in that thought process - but not enough to think that a skunk would know better!

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). currently 20.1F, so it will probably get down another degree or two before it starts going up to maybe over freezing today. Even with the woodstove lit and packed with ,walnut and locust, the...

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). 37F and the sky is clear. Local 4H just emailed out their Spring Plant Sale form, so we are getting several fruit trees and various other fruit bushes/vines etc. Dropping that off after work...

That’s not for hikes - it’s for canoe trips. . .

Also look into “static” hydroponics, without pumps…

there are a couple of local farm side stands that have decent pickled eggs. I like the ones from Jaemor Farms in Georgia.

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). Rainy, 47, waiting to see what the little furry #(&)$# has to say… and he doesn’t want to come out at all… have a wonderful happy blessed day!

Oh the horrrorrrr

Thanks for the heads-up - I haven’t looked in quite a while!

I occasionally post something worthwhile 🤪

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). 52.7F and another wet, dreary day expected for 2023: Episode 2 “February”. Went out for Sushi dinner last night. There must be a new inspector in the county because our place went from an...

The biggest problem I have with the nylon pouch is the Velcro closure. I converted mine to a snap. I had to remove the Velcro first, or the material would have been too thick to install the snaps.

“I don’t know - it must have gotten lost in the mail?”

Three of us, nine birds, 6 to eight eggs a day produced, mom (85) has one egg a day, Mrs has an egg every other two days, SOMEONE HAS TO TAKE UP THE SLACK. . . 😁

Big Brother Is Watching You

Yowzah! That is ridiculously high for a Leatherman (although I bought my last one about 15 years ago). I have/had several, I could have warranted a couple but I know I abused them to the point where… and it was not the fault of the tool. I like the early renditions of the Wave with the fixed...

no

The latest batch shown has Turmeric added to the recipe.. top shot also includes some water-glass eggs. I go through two jars a week at work!

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). 47.6F and foggy, supposed to be on-and-off rain all day, continuing through the week. So working up at the wood lot this weekend will likely be limited. If I cut down my black-pipe spacers...

My mom always had on PBS when I was a kid, so I grew up on a lot of BBC programming - Everything from “Masterpiece Theater” to “Fawlty Towers”, which makes a difference with watching shows like “Top Gear” — although it is funny to see Mrs. starting to get into ”Grand Tour” 😂

Congrats!!!!

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). Wally World excursion successful. The only thing that we could not get this trip was Woolite, of all things. . . Mexican restaurant for dinner. New menus, new prices. But the portion sizes and...

She just wanted an excuse to go out again… 😂🤣

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right ( or at least not screw up too badly). very nice day yesterday, decided to go on an excursion to a neighboring town we had not been to before. Excellent antique store that we will definitely visit again, I bought an antique...

We always got a kick out of parking next to the baby blue Bentley convertible in front of the Dollar Tree. . . gotta love Florida!

Someone will snatch that tracker right up - they are very popular here in Appalachia as trail vehicles and hunting trucks.

I find I am going to have to slip back into my old “gummint employee” mode: “Yessir Yessir Three Bags Full— Now pay me.”

The man is a complete horse’s arse. but then again, so am I 😂🤣 And I will support him, too.

Or if you know you are gonna hafta beat on the wrench with a 3lb hand sledge to get that one frozen nut off. . .

We have a Bose Wave hooked to our tv, and it is more than sufficient for enhancing the sound. Picked up a refurb at the Tanger Outlets store a couple years ago for under $400.

“Except I didn’t say ‘Fudge’. . .”

If you like that fair, you will probably like the podcasts from Mike Adams “The Health Ranger”. Look for “HealthRanger Report”

Horrible Fright wrenches are just what you need for those weird, obstructed applications where you need to heat it up with the torch and bend it in a vise in order to sneak it into some spot that someone with an engineering degree decided would be a perfectly logical place to put a nut/bolt/stud...

Higgins was known for the landing craft, but also built other vessels, up to small freighters. There were several PT builders - just a bit a ways from where I lived was Electric Lighter Company in Bayonne, NJ. PT109 was built there. The boatyard succumbed to the CondoCommandos about two decades...

Beautiful Art Deco architecture in Newark Station. Too bad it is in Newark. . .

I always preferred waiting out on the platform, so I could distance myself from the indigenous life-forms and have clear 360 views of my surroundings. . .

The only thing good that comes out of Trenton anymore is Taylor Ham (and Case’s Pork Roll, before I get flamed… Ford vs Chevy…). I used to refer to it as “Minas Morghul”. And the REAL garden spot is Camden. . .

if it makes your morning good, then it certainly belongs in “Good Morning” 😁👍

Forgot the mushrooms in the fridge, yesterday morning before clocking in I went right to the lunchroom and put them I. The backseat of the vehicle. Made a5 -egg omelet with spinach, onion, feta and mushroom for dinner. Mrs approved👍.

If it was closer, I have a great mower engine with a rotted-out deck… I could use that deck…

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). 20.5F right now, allegedly going up into mid 50’s. Pobwbly will drop another degree or two first though. Made it through another work week, system still occasionally wonky, but real jobs are...

A friend of ours has HughesNet. They usually run at about 0.9mbps, which is even worse than the crappy DSL we just got rid of. Meanwhile: And this is with the Starlink “Best Effort” - not even the full service. If the HughesNet is sufficient for your needs, save the money.

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). FINALLY got approval to go into work at 8 instead of 9, so OF COURSE I am running behind on my morning —- catch up with you all later! have a happy productive safe blessed day!

They have this thing they are advertising on TV, that I started doing over two decades ago when flying: I UPS my luggage ahead about a week earlier whenever possible, and went on the plane with a carryon that had a toothbrush, spare socks & underwear, and a couple books. it’s the only way to...

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). 39F and raining. Allegedly ending by lunchtime. good day at work, scored error rate is WAAAYYYY down - three all day, two were definitely my error (light-tap on decimal point key, so $4.13...

Dog was disappointed, and and when we got home stayed In her bed upstairs for almost an hour until she deigned to grace us with her presence again for ear scritches 🤣😂🤣. Just added a couple more pieces of wood to chase the morning chill— started raining about 1AM and expected to end around noon...

expression of the **** glands. two syllables vs eight syllables…🤣😂

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up to badly). I cleaned out the stove and chimney yesterday evening. Got almost a gallon of hard flake soot out of the stove, barely a cup from sweeping the chimney, so my theory about not running the stove for...

Starlink StarLink varies between really good and ridiculously AWESOME. The lowest down I have seen is 7MBPS, the lowest up so far was 0.7MBPS. I have seen numbers as high as 171 down and 23 up. and the numbers constantly change as the satellites orbit. But it is so nice to watch RoKu TV...

What is this “nutrition label” you speak of? i make it in a 14” deep-dish pizza pan. So a serving size of “one slice” is perfectly satisfying. 😎👍

It is more because she is convinced I will maim/kill myself if she lets me out unsupervised. . .🤪 (See sig below) No, seriously. the worst part is she hates the cold and if I don’t give her something arduous to do so she keeps warm she wants to go home after an hour and I can’t get things...

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). 38F, gained all night. I have to clean the chimney. I lit a fire in the stovw to chase the dampness, because the heat pump system is adequate, and that’s the best I can say about it. Kindling...

I really need to get some good tackle and cables. . .

Yes. where the pull-line is lying on the ground is approximately the old lane to the back of the property (complete with pine trees growing in the middle that the tackle is secured to…🤪) and to the left and right I want to grow stuff. Out of frame on the left (when looking at the pickup) is a...

One quiche got baked, this time I added chunks of breakfast link sausage to the mix, I think it is pretty good. i added the chunks raw, and the only downside is you don’t get that nice carmelization on the sausages, but the juices all stay in the quiche for added richness. Made the crust with a...

PB Blaster is decent, Kroil is Better IMO but hard to find. A 50/50 mix of acetone and ATF is one of the best penetrating lubes you can use - read it in one of the many horrid mags back in the day, they did a reasonably-scientific test with a bunch of bolts from the same box into holes threaded...

Mrs on the pull line, but you can get an idea of terrain and trees. Some skinnies were already taken down

Problem is I do seasonal work from January to May, and we were all laid up with acute bronchitis all of December, so my the time I have time again, everything will be in full leaf and the ground will be muddy, and nothing will be planted . . . I may be plowing some weird disconnected furrows !!!

Diggin that ditch:

Good morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). 37F right now, going up to mid 50’s, drippy day. Mrs and i are taking mom out to brunch after church - Mrs is looking forward to chicken&waffles after all her ditch diggin’ yesterday. Lots of...

Did you have a dirty red bandana?

Oh yeah - I had some dead standing hazard trees to take down p, and one of them got hung up and I had to waste some time dealing with that. 200’ of rope and some persuasion from the pickup And it came down, shattering on the way down. And since that was right on our main hiking path, it was...

Mrs did an AWESOME job - I have to get pictures off the phone and post later. When we come home, dog always sniffs the car to make sure we didn’t go up the woodlot without her. She got psyched out, because yesterday we used the pickup 😂

He’d probably say “I agree!” and then call over the barkeep and yell “Second Round’s on him, too!” —While pointing at you 😂🤣

Mixed: loblolly pine/poplar/black walnut predominate, a couple other odds-n-ends mixed in

She has her own blankets, we get them at Goodwill and there are several around the house for her 😁

Steer with the gas pedal😂🤣

Good Morning! God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). made it through the work week - YAY! No butting heads with management over training issues for two days. YAY 25F allegedly going to low 50’s, but at least sunny all day. Chainsaw will get a...

Looking at projects like this, it is downright amazing to think that people used to do this with nothing more than two oxen and bare hands while building a log cabin so the family could move out of the covered wagon and still have food grown for the following winter. . . but then, they weren’t...

Took the dog up the mountain again yesterday, she got two days in a row, so we can leave her home today and not have her be overly upset that we aren’t taking her today. Rain coming in tomorrow so today is the only day to chainsaw. I will also keep Mrs busy while I set everything up by letting...

That is what is good about that tool - if the seats won’t come out, you can reface them. Just cut them enough to where you have a continuous shiny ring without any interruptions and you can get several years out of it before grinding it again. The key is to do two turns and inspect, two turns...

I have several goals here: -logs for my sawmill -firewood -plantable areas for personal food consumption -open land for family recreation (I need to be able to get the tractor to where I can brush hog all the thorny grabby bleedy stuff and then plow the roots out) I will be doing this in...

We have a mix of loblolly pine, poplar, black walnut, and a smattering of others mixed in. based on aerial photography from the GIS, and local information, the land was once part of a cattle farm and was open field in 1954.

Here is the article: I doubt Meghan's tears were real. Why cry over the boss of a firm you hate? yes, it is brutal, but what did he say that was incorrect? he never should have apologized — nothing you can say is ever enough, and once you apologize to this crowd they smell weakness and attack...

I guess “Honesty Is The Best Policy” is DEAD. . .

No FEL on mine, but the tires are loaded.

Probably what it will do is cut flush plus nail some flagging tape to the stumps for better visibility until I rent later on.

But West end, away from the stuff that drips down 95 from NYC and DC 🤣😂

Instant Rice: Just Add Water Instant Coffee: Just Add Water Instant Idiot Drivers: well, you know. . .

Food plot for ME 😁 cabbage onions beans taters etc. any deer come near it are going in the freezer.

Nice to have good toys. . . 40hp Case 430 is what I am working with. . .

I have a 40hp Case 430. . .

But I want to plow a foodplot. . .

I don’t have digging equipment at the moment, just a saw, and I need to get lumber and firewood going sooner rather than later. I would LOVE to topple them and let them take out their own rootball!

Is there a recommended height? Options include pulling out stumps with block and tackle or renting a mini-excavator. diameters range from 3” to 30”, majority will be 8” to 16” dia. thanks for any suggestions or additional advice!

Good Morning! Happy Friday! BEF: Church is day after tomorrow, don’t forget😁👍 God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly). work training is still wonky, but I am now in direct contact with one of the senior trainers who actually works on the modules...

I don’t need to hurt anyone on pricing. Although I might give ”alternate pricing options”, like swap one-for-one egg/FreedomPill 😎

Dog is a two-time rescue, very sweet and loving and five years she’s been with us and sometimes if I pick up a stick she still flinches. . . It took almost two years before she would sit with me, always sat/snuggled with Mrs - she would play with me outside, super friendly, but inside was a...

If the seats are relacable, replace them while it is apart. If not, invest in a seat grinder - something like https://www.lowes.com/pd/Kobalt-Faucet-Reseater/1002633322

Tomorrow is another chance. Don’t let the bastards win.

But at least then the dispatcher knew why drivers wouldn’t pull over on the shoulder…

And a dime under the insoles for an emergency pay phone call…
