  1. If it bottoms out in the hole just cut the end off. Ummmmm, cut of the threaded end.......
  2. An oldie but goodie.
  3. One of my hobbies is designing and building electronic do dads. I have this one all designed and a first prototype built. I just need a local guinea pig/volunteer that has a 2nd gen for me to figure out where and how to mount it. see pics in above posts. My first gen has the bulb monitors built in from the factory.
  4. I read some where that it only takes 2 out of every 1,000,000 (One Million) emails sent out for a scam to be profitable. It is not hard to 2 people that are not to bright out of a million tries.
  5. Happy Birthday Moped... Is that his birthday present that he is sitting on? If so would you like a second husband?
  6. Makes great weed killer ......
  7. Bump I still have my test board looking for a guinea pig .........
  8. How can you have a garage queen without a garage?
  9. You forgot the bedtime snack
  10. Sorry to hear, I know what it is like to have a parent not understanding a need for treatment. Prayers and best wishes to all of you.
  11. Yesterday Milwaukee WI was colder than anyplace in Alaska. Even the northern most edges.
  12. Well now that you mention it, Erika does cause me enlargement........
  13. That just looks wonderful, Big Tom is such a lucky man to have such pretty weather. Just grab some Apple Pie sit back and enjoy the show.
  14. Well a lot of time has passed, but there is still good things happening. Dad now has a hearing aid so we have to be careful talking about him when he is in the room. Over all he is getting around well without any walking aids. He is back to cooking meals, something he always enjoyed doing. But Mom says he seems to have completely forgotten how to clean up after cooking a meal. He is back to being able to carry on a conversation about current or past issues. He just passed a very rigorous driving test by the state and now has his drivers license back. This test was first the same written test that a new driver would take. The second part was a verbal test that had questions to judge his decision making abilities. and knowledge of driving. Part 3 was a driving test in a simulator where they can judge his derision making and reflexes at the same time. Part 4 was a behind the wheel road test in one of their cars that has full dual controls (for safety). While did not not do perfect in every part of the test he did meet all of the minimum requirements. Having watched the test procedure, I would bet that a pretty high percentage of people over 60, that are driving now, would not pass. I am sure that all of the prayers and well wishes helped. The doctors had written him off and said he would never get back to leading anything resembling a normal life.
  15. I'm looking forward to it warming up to single digit temps with no minus sign in front of them. Yes I have been out hunting from sunrise to sunset in -25°F with 20 mph wind. Out all day and stayed nice and warm. But I did kind of look like an orange Michelin man ..... I did break out my big coat for today, It is a coat that I bought when I used to ride all winter no mater how cold it got. I have not worn that coat in 20 years because till now it has not been cold enough to put it on. I can not wear this coat if it will be above zero. Hmmmmm...... Seems I may have been a little smaller when I last wore this coat......
  16. If you followed all of our instructions, and the bike still runs, you must have done something wrong.....
  17. OK, I have to ask. For you southerners, do you mix anti freeze at the rate recommended on the bottle of 50/50, or do you skimp figuring that it will never get that cold? 50/50 mix should be good for at least -30? Same with keeping the faucets running, are your furnaces not able to keep up and the whole house is that cold? The standard for sizing a furnace here is that it must be able to hold 70 when the outside temp is -10. Freezing pipes has never been an issue in my 125 year old house that has little to no insulation and even still has its original single pane windows. I'm just curious if the threat of freezing things is real or just perceived. I know that houses down south are not built nearly as well as houses up here.
  18. It froze to death!!
  19. Gee, some guys have all the fun. All we got was COLD, supposed to reach -22 (-45 wind chill) tonight. But no snow:snow2:
  20. I don't know what bitcoins are, I have heard of the term, but know nothing about it. I have no way of knowing how much airtime it was using without me knowing it. Fortunately I use my phone so little that I have never run out of airtime or data.
  21. This whole thing is still driving me crazy, And you all know that is a very short drive ..... OK I think I spotted the issue. Yesterday I was out of town all day till around 7:00pm when I logged in here. The last time I was on line was 7:00pm the day before. BUT when I logged in at 7:00 pm up in the top left corner where it says welcome, it said my last visit was at 9:31am on that morning. I was no where near a computer and am sure that I did not log in. So the first thing I did was to change my VRO password. Then after thinking about it some more, I remembered that I did make a phone call around that time. I wonder if something on my phone like Tapatalk did a quick login to this site and in doing so reset my last visited time. So I did uninstall Tapatalk and low and behold when I logged in this morning it did show all of the posts since my last visit last night and it had the correct time of my last visit. I'll run as is for a few days to see if it really was my cell phone logging in all by its self that was causing my issues.
  22. I would kill for 23 degrees right now or even 16. Its -17 here at work and it is still dropping. Unfortunately butts do not freeze off, but other parts do:whistling: But it is supposed to get hot out by the end of the week, they are saying we might even get above freezing. I thought we were very clear to all of them canuks to keep the back door closed and keep all of their air up there. They obviously have not listened very well. Yes we do get extremes here, the annual temp spread is around 140 degrees from the coldest to the hottest. And with those great lakes we have no problems generating humidity just to make it more fun. But it is still better than down south.
  23. Ahhhhh, the good old days........
  24. And why were you checking the balls of the bullfrogs???????
