    New Chainsaw - Any Recommendations

    My Canadian friend also rebuilt his 1976 Sears Craftsman 2-stage snow blower. This thing is a monster! You couldn't buy one this good at any price nowdays.

    New Chainsaw - Any Recommendations

    Never thought I would see a Canadian asking about chainsaws. Thought that was a DNA thing! LOL. Anyway, great advice here from everyone. Stihl, Husky, and McCullah are good choices. But one idea. My good friend, who is Canadian, buys only older saws from the 80's, and earlier. He rehabs...

    Comments about purists and haters is getting really old

    I'm not a "purist", but for GOD's sake, please make sure the "Go-Wing" is not installed backwards!

    Direct tv......

    Have had DirecTv for 10 years. Storms and snow can cause some issues, but I'm not a complainer. Have too much **** on the DVR to watch anyway! Equipment has been fine, but some of the "techs" they have sent are idiots! Bad terminations, want to drill holes on the outside of my house, too fat...

    Ask to "Check the Box" at Autozone

    I agree with all the above. I now do most of my purchases on the web. As of late, it is very difficult to find chain-stores that can even GET quality parts. Napa has to sell "chinesium" just to compete. I'm sorry to say the world has changed for us wrench-turners. For the average Joe, AZ is...

    Knockout game goes right!!

    I agree that the legal "application-of-force" is "supposed" to be suspended, once the threat is neutralized. However, the victims primal instincts of "fight-or-flight" may be hard to control after an attack like that. How about a little "PTSD" thrown in there for defense? Assault the wrong...

    Happy Thanksgiving to everyone

    Step kid actually went to the Chinese buffet. Told her to to buy extra carry-out containers tonight! LOL!

    Happy Thanksgiving to everyone

    Great! Once again the "In-laws" will descend upon my house like the biblical locusts! I have no family, so I'm all alone here. Her angry dad, Jesus-striken mother, and creepy brother (that I try to keep away from the children), will all be in attendance. Any chance that they will return the...

    For you germaphobes and everyone else for that matter...Pretty cool stuff.

    It is interesting. May I pose a different approach? Whilst ( Who ever uses that word?) the completely anti-bacterial properties of this may be good for surgery, for preventing non-native organisms, this is not an end-all solution. The human body, and especially the "gut" is s a veritable...

    This is why people say, "If it's not Boeing, I'm not going...."

    Not a pilot, but always a "wanna-be" that follows aviation. Why is cockpit control not standardized? Step 1. They say in any emergency, the first thing is to "FLY" the plane. F the indicators, keep the attitude level, and work from there. Any idiot could tell that at engine-output, the...

    Federalist Papers. Anyone read, or heard of?

    The Federalist papers, in my layman's interpretation is a basic way the constitution should be administered, and clauses for conduct and fairness. http://thomas.loc.gov/home/histdox/fedpapers.html These were written by Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, and many other loyal...

    Sons of Anachy T-shirt gift.

    Thanks for the support! The wife tends to go on on subjects for so long that it just wears me down, and I stop arguing. I don't give-in, but I just stop arguing. I think she chalks it up as a WIN, but the long lasting resentment festers. Ever heard the saying of "Won the battle, but lost the...

    What do you guys make of this?

    Its up to us as parents to educate our children as to the risks of technology. The current generation thinks NOTHING about sharing every detail of their lives on-line. All we can do is arm them with the truth, and hope they take the correct course. The 800 lb gorilla in the room, is that...

    Sons of Anachy T-shirt gift.

    My wife bought me an SOA t-shirt for Fathers-day. She has been hounding me for months why I dont wear it. I've been riding for 25+ years. I have friends from local Harley riding clubs, and 1% clubs. I have never worn a patch. I associate freely between all my riding brothers. Today...

    Whats the best brand of riding lawn mower?

    Anything with a cast-iron engine, early 90's and prior. All the rest of the parts for those are supported. Anything with a Honda motor is a good second choice also. My BF runs a 76 Murray, and swears by it. Parts still readily available. Yes, I know, some may feel silly in a McMansion...

    Vintage Test Drive of a 1969 Hemi Dodge Daytona Charger

    Not sure if he was "cock-suckering" the thing, or singing it's praises? But he can sure drive! Only words I recognized were "Charger", and "Le aileron"! Yer right Ski! No 69 Hemi Daytona will ever be driven like that again, unless it's stolen.

    Texting..........

    Dont get me started on the idiots texting to reply to my CL ads. Some are so mis-spelled, and incoherent, I dont even know what they are asking! "U stil got it?", from a strange number. Got What M-F-er?!!! What are you asking?!!!!! Then the "bottom-feeders" that text an offer for 50% of...

    Disco Party??? WTH

    Don't matter, just tell her they did! My dad is 72, and gets his fair share of ***. Besides, us men become a diminishing commodity as we age. Hell, did you know that independent senior living communities have the fastest growing rate of STD's in society?

    Nano

    They spend millions to shed ounces off of cars these days. Going off-track here, there is not an energy shortage, the is an "energy STORAGE shortage". Energy is created in many ways, STORING it for when needed is the problem. Electricity is the ideal for todays needs, but storing it requires...

    Disco Party??? WTH

    At least you are going with her. You should be able to parlay this into a "get-out-of-jail-free" card for her next event. Try not to vomit, or put a gun-barrel in your mouth if they play "Dancing Queen"! Also, try to innocently flirt with the other women so that they are interested in you...
