Good morning!!!!

[toppop52]

My younger brother is in the market for a 65-66 small block convertible right now.

My best friend has a ‘65 327/365 4 speed convertible. One nice driving car. He’s talking about selling a few of his classics but I doubt he’d sell the Vette.

Good Morning
It’s 36 with a high in the middle 40’s forecast with rain.

Yesterday’s trip went well considering the weather. I didn’t get much else done but drive back and forth to the airport, I don’t think that I went to the shop for anything.

Today started with a friend that ran out of heating oil due to him being distracted and not monitoring it. Got that resolved, now I need to make a mount to add the Tempest weather station to the pole that holds the Davis.
Tempest is supposed to be here today, so I want to be ready for it.

I primarily post from an iPad using Tapatalk, so I don’t see much if any difference in the interface.

It’s 51, down from 53 early, dropping into the 40’s by afternoon, more rain and wind. The first two rounds brought about an inch, today so far another 3/4”. The grass is like a big sponge.
I’ve got to take out the garbage, kitchen can is getting ripe!
Weather was so bad yesterday the guy that bought my trailer begged off until a nicer day. No big deal, I’m paid and it ain’t eating. Picked up cat food and litter at TSC yesterday and looked at a leftover Coleman UTV, it has a lot of standard features and I can buy it for $6000. It’s not as big and powerful as some, but where I’d use it it’s plenty. I just can’t drop 20-30 grand on what for me is basically a toy. The one I’m looking at is red.

I post / read from my iPad with Tapatalk and found that, after the "maintenance", subscribed threads would open to around the end of January instead of where I last read. I'd have to go to the most recent post then back track to where I'd left off.

Now working as before.

Good Morning!!!! 46F @ 5:45AM. Abundant sunshine. High 67F. Winds SSE at 5 to 10 mph.
Still looking good for some rain next weekend, and even more through the following week.

The Watched link at the top of the page works like that, Drew. Once you're all caught up reading your favorite threads here on TBN, click on the "Mark forums read" link (also at the top), and from then on, any new posts to threads you're watching (subscribed to) will cause that thread to appear in the Watched list, and clicking on the link for that thread will take you to the oldest unread post. At least that's the way it works when I'm reading on a laptop.

I haven't purchased much music made past the '70s either, Kyle, but there was so much music made during that time I still run across holes in the collection that deserve to be filled. But I also run across new artists once in a while, usually through posts by friends on Facebook. Tash Sultana just released an album last week, and it's already a favorite.

Got two more pallets welded up yesterday, so today I'll work on getting 'em filled. All that black stuff on the driveway is plastic chips left from cutting out the forklift tunnels on the pallets. First time using the battery powered circular saw, and though I wasn't impressed with the power, it sure was handy. Looks like I'm gonna need more pallets, too; I'm down to my last six.

Caught this little fellow out on the patio last night. Good little bug getter, but they'll pee on you if you try to pick 'em up.

Still finding new things to like with the interface here on TBN. Pretty happy the "upgrade" has gone so smoothly. I did have to redo my avatar, though, and in the process, found my rifle and my jug. Gonna have to redo the Signature, too, as all the hyperlinks got broken. Life in the fast lane...

Hope everyone's week and month gets off to a great start!

Toppop, that looks like a very good deal if you can find someone locally to do warranty work on it. TSC won't...

lit the heat in the garage and waiting for it to warm up in there. Rain has stopped finally.

That does look like a lot of bang for the buck, Randy. And that's a great price, too. When I clicked the link, the TSC website made me enter my zip code. Then it showed me a price that was $999 higher than what they're asking you to pay...

hi,
Got the new coffee table sealed up with 2 coats miracle sealant. Marble top.
Should change my picture to doghouse :-(

Stay safe and be well

30°F and clear skies this morning, going up to 48° today. It rained here on and off for most of the day yesterday, then got really windy last night. Looks like we're in for sunny days this week.

My typical weekend avoidance of most things internet brought me back this morning to a considerably different TBN. Still haven't found my way around to the comfort zone I had set up on the last iteration. Guess that will take a bit. I see Muhammad is hard at work on the various bugs and requests. That it's working as well as it is today is a testament to the work already put into it.

The new pickups for the Les Paul guitar finally arrived on Saturday. Need to make some time some evening this week to get them installed, as I want to use it on the next slated recording. Finished up the recent funk song yesterday.

... aaaaand, just like that, now The Wife wants to just stay where we are. The boy in Texas reminded her that he would likely be moving if he gets on with the agency he's pursuing, so she shouldn't plan to move to Texas just because he is there.
Glad I hadn't packed anything yet.

Kyle, I ripped my CD collection as well, and loaded them onto five USB thumb drives sorted by genre; Classical/Baroque, Rock, Prog, Jazz, and my own music. It's mostly what I listen to when I'm driving my 2-ish hours of daily commute time. Like Eric, I get exposed to most newer music from online streaming. One of my favorites is Morow.com, an online prog rock radio station streaming out of Paris, France, whose owner plays mostly newer progressive rock, and a fair amount of the classic stuff from the '70s.

Time to dig into this new TBN site and find out what I can change.

Forgot to say: Happy Birthday, Sassy!

Real nice job!

thanks RNG, it worked this time by clicking on the thread title

Ken, that's gorgeous. Can you share why you are in the doghouse? Only a state of mind... often
easily remedied with a dozen roses.

My friend and his wife are a Coleman dealer and repair shop, but they don’t sell the UTV’s, but do service them.

That is the list price on the one pictured, the one I’m looking at has aluminum wheels and lists for $7299. It’s a leftover and this store has stopped stocking them. They basically want it gone.

That’s a good deal. It will do the job. Spec’s are similar to my mule.

Working from home today...

About 40 right now...high might be a couple degrees warmer. Calling for stout winds this afternoon and possible snow squalls

Going to take some time to get used to this new TBN...and so far, my password doesn't work. TBN admin gave me a temporary password. For some reason, the confirmation e-mails for confirming the password change isn't working and my old password (same since 2001) doesn't work either...

 

[RoyJackson]

By the way, how does one subscribe to a forum...it seems my subscriptions aren't showing on the top

 

[LS Tractor Owner]

Good morning to all! Low of 21, going up to high 40's. No snow materialized as forecasted.

Ken, hope you can work out your discrepancy.... Also, nice job on the table.

Happy Birthday to Sassy... adorable pup!

Randy, good luck getting the UTV, looks nice.

Drew, good luck in "house hunting". I'm sure you will find something suitable.

The knee was only half cooperative last night, slept for around five hours straight through, then couldn't sleep more than 1/2 hour... every position just became aggravating.... just a part of healing... got up early.

Today I will make some more calls, hopefully getting PT all lined up. Then want to get material prices for a future project, maybe to get started in the summer. At least getting it planned out will occupy some of my time....

Everyone have a great start to the week!

Good morning, unexpectedly woke up to bright sunshine, although that didn't last long. Within half an hour the forecasters prediction had come true, we are now enveloped in fog. Pleased I don't have to go anywhere today, which is just as well anyway as the road to town is supposed to be closed today for next two weeks. A little inconvenient, although a great opportunity too to have a good go at the hedge that runs along the roadside.

Rich, a creek is crick ? Is that just a local pronunciation, or used everywhere - here a crick is what you get in your neck from a cold draft.

A creek is pronounced crick in some areas.

 

[buckeyefarmer]

Sounds like a nice day and would have loved to join you for those poppers. I noticed gas going up, too. Looked at my Costco receipts...fill up in December was $1.85/gal, and last week it was $2.38...up 53 cents.

Gas prices started going up before TSHTF in TX.
I used to track gas price in quicken, but stopped. I keep all the charge slips, so can go back and look. $2.51 at Costco today, $2.70 most other places.
