    Pair of J & M Headsets...

    in Watering Hole

    Posted

    I'll ask here first...

    Anyone interested in a J&M headset for sale?

    I'd rather see someone here get it but if I don't find someone here, I'll throw it on ebay.

    Let me know if you are interested and I am flexible on price but be fair ok? :thumbsup2:

    Hey Don, once you get it going a little bit, try using an electric hair dryer on it. That's what I used to do back in the day and it's like turbo-charging the starter!

     

     

    I had a roommate years ago that worked for a co called Airgas... he would get an oxygen tank and shoot some oxygen into the coals and get them fired right up!

    I tried something new the other day for starting the coals. I bought a box of fire starter packets. You put 1 or 2 down, pile the charcoal over and around it and light it. It supposedly burns at 1500 degrees or somethin' like that and starts the charcoal pretty easy. No lighter fluid or big flames like you get w/ fluid.:thumbsup2:

    Boy Tool,

    That unit would make a GREAT sidecar on a VR!!:rotf::rotf::rotf:

    I don't know about that... it throws off heat! The first time I fired it up, the thermometer on it said it got up to about 750 degrees in about 5 minutes!!

    I wouldn't want to ride next to that very long...

    Mothers day lunch...

    in Watering Hole

    Posted

    We were going to go to a nice brunch for Mothers Day... really nice. But we decided that $40 - $50 per person was a bit too steep.

    I asked Amber what she wanted for dinner on Mothers day and she licked her lips and said Lobster!... and Prime Rib... and Scallops... why did I ask!?

    Well she didn't get exactly what she wanted.... I couldn't find any nice scallops, but she did get Prime Rib and Lobster tails. It was a first for me to grill the tails and cook a prime rib. It turned out pretty good, if I say so myself.

    How about the rest of y'all... what did you do for Mom's Day?

    Today's Math Question

    Posted

    A Backhoe weighing 8 tons is on top of a flatbed trailer and heading east on Interstate 70 near Hays, Kansas ? The extended shovel arm is made of hardened refined steel and the approaching overpass is made of commercial-grade concrete, reinforced with 1 1/2 inch steel rebar spaced at 6 inch intervals in a criss-cross pattern layered at 1 foot vertical spacing.

     

     

     

    Solve: When the shovel arm hits the overpass, how fast do you have to be going to slice the bridge in half?? (Assume no effect for headwind and no braking by the driver...) Extra Credit: Solve for the time and distance required for the entire rig to come to a complete stop after hitting the overpass at the speed calculated above.? Yes, you can neglect friction.
