RNG, my Wife recently reorganized her sewing room and decided to get rid of a bunch of old fabric. She took pictures, put it all in a large plastic tote, and posted it for free on FB Marketplace. It was spoken for in about 10 minutes. The lady picked it up Monday evening, then came back sometime yesterday and left a nice card on the door thanking her for all the wonderful fabric. Like you, I only seem to get the flakes. I should just have her post my stuff from now on.

Glad it worked out for your wife, Paul. I just touched base with the #2 buyer, and we'll be meeting in Paradise this afternoon to get the boxes to him. It's a bit of a detour for me, but generally on the way home, and I really want those boxes GONE. He's another one pulling the plug on Kalifornia, so they're going to a good cause.

The 390 HP had a 4 barrel. The L89 425 HP and 435 HP versions both were both Tri-power, as I recall, with major difference being hydraulic lifters on the 425 and mechanical lifters .. on the 435.

The L88s were impressive "fire breathing monsters" but .. broke easy .. think 24 Hours @ Le Mans in 67? I think there were only about 2 dozen production models built in 67. They stripped all the creature comforts from them.

The 425 horse was solid lifter four barrel, the 400 horse was Tri Power and hydraulic lifters. The 400 hp was available with ac, neither of the solid lifter cars were. The 425-430(l-88) and 435 were all solid lifter. The L-88 was dynoed over 500 hp.

Do you feel the same about those that stormed the federal building in Seattle, breached the wall at the White House and shot Republicans at the ball field? If so, I agree with you. None have right to forcefully push their beliefs through violence.

I'm already on record as condemning any violence and property damage in Seattle and the attempted murders at the ball field.

As far as "breaching the wall" at the White House, if you are referring to the incident which I think you might be, that isn't even remotely close to what took place yesterday.



Good ... :thumbsup:

Not being able to discern the difference between issues, is an ominous handicap, whether or not cultivated.​

Well, let's try this again.

Previously I wrote:

Thanks for the birthday wishes.

38F and sunny @ 14:00, headed up to a high of 40F. Ten Day shows mild temps in the 40's for the next 5 days and then a chance of some rain/snow showers next Friday and cooler temps after that. Not really much in the way of snow throughout the period. I haven't been paying too much attention to weather forecast lately, but from some comments on here it was sounding like maybe a winter storm was headed our way - that does not appear to be case if the forecast I'm looking at on WU is correct.

Agenda for the rest of the day is mostly house cleaning

Hope everyone has an enjoyable, productive, and safe day ... :thumbsup:

Today is much the same:

38F and "fair" @ 13:00, headed to a high of 42F.

Thanks to all for the birthday wishes, particularly for those given after my last post.

And thanks to all for the pictures ... I enjoy them daily ... :thumbsup:

Plans for today include getting all feeders refilled, probably watch a little tv ... among other things.

Expecting a call from a friend later who has recently set up yet another new business.

Hope everyone has an enjoyable, productive, and safe day ...

Of course the inability to recognize similarities is also a handicap.

This morning started out hectic as the Austin Hub website, which got 12,000 doses of vaccine was opened up. I got on and was accepted, then on the last page I was to pick a place and time and then the problems started no matter which zip code or combination of miles (5-100) it just kept on clearing out the info to start over. I gave up and went to chainsaw massacre cedars in the park. When I got back home the news was saying that the signup for the 12,000 doses was filled in 6 minutes and after 20,000 people signed up the web site broke with technical problems. I guess that is when I got on. This was the website that was encouraging people with no insurance to apply and no check of immigration status was advertised. These are the people the city of Austin and the Austin hospitals will have to eat the medical bills if they have to have medical treatment so it was a money thing.

At the park there was still a little snow on the ground after noon. Temps started out at 27˚F and quickly got into the 60s by noon. Sunny blue skies, just a perfect day to work outside. below are after/snow pic/before.

Don, sorry you did not get an appointment.

Got things back in place or thrown away that were on shelves next to furnace. Conserving energy in recliner until dinner.

You spotlighting them at 2 am. ?

Just enough light reflecting off the snow 30' from the house...and little help of glasses.

None were sighted by our group of 10 today.

Rick, glad your shot went well.

Don, sorry you couldn't get scheduled...you've been diligent.

Evening all! Nice sunny day in the high 30's with no wind. Loved it!!
Been a little under the weather lately as I went off my diet. (Had to have a pizza!) A few days on the brat diet should straighten me out.
Ordered a new computer. Will be in some time next week. Was able to save all my files so not worried about setting up the new one.

Big day for me as I decided to file for Social security and turned in my paperwork.

Finally heard from the state when to expect my first pension check. Things are looking up!

Now, just need things to stop breaking around here.

Hope everyone stays safe and healthy!

39 presently high today 54 even warmer tomorrow polar vortex to set up shop soon cold coming. Since the models used by many the GFS is not always accurate your phone will not always show what is coming. Looking at one model to make forecast can be dangerous

Prayers for your sister Kyle, your daughter and you, Jay and wife, riptides and all trials and tribulations, Sodamo and wife, MFW, Coco and all others

If the follow up was my post, I'm fine with that....

Extra prayers for your sister, Kyle.

Amazing how these shots can be so easy (Rick) or such a problem (Don and most of the rest)

Hawaii is still saying 75 & up not 65. Of course still a lot of medical tupes still waiting as well.

Mixed bag at the ophthalmologist. He lasered the right eye but told Sophie her muscle was thick and require another shot as he only did half. Other eye in 3 weeks. Cataract still slow improvement.
Teased Sophie we should have taken an anniversary gift as she started with him Jan 2020.

Found out nieces husband has COVID. They were at my dad’s 2 weeks ago, hope he wasn’t contagious then.

Was going to go visit dad this weekend, not sure if I’m going now.

Good evening! It is 35 now, was 43 earlier and mostly sunny. A nice January day!

Felt really good today. Got report #1 done for work, sold the reloading stuff on fleaBay for really satisfying amount of money, was able to get ink cartridges for the printer so I can print shipping labels, stopped to see some friends I hadn稚 seen since before I was sick, talked to a friend from OK too long, and finally, got a call from 2 co-workers who were at the problem child machine in PA.

That was the best part of the day, they tried my off the wall idea to set the hydraulic pump with a sickly engine, then proved the engine was sick. Seems the fuel system on the engine has metal shavings in it and soot from one or more bad injectors. I have been telling the customer and dealer the engine was sick since August. They told everyone I didn稚 know what I was talking about. My co-workers, who agreed with me were quite happy too.

Even made supper tonight which made the wife happy. Been a good day.

Everyone stay safe out there
