My bike is so old I can't remember what I paid for it, certainly less than $500. An ancient Cannondale, I got it in the mid-80s. But a few years ago I realized it was seriously deteriorating, so I paid $400 to a local bike shop for a "complete mechanical disassembly and reassembly". Every nut, bolt...

electrifying the metal frame with a car battery. 12V? Um, not that electrifying.. Not even to mention: That's not really possible. If you connect both terminals on a car battery to a metal frame, it will short out the battery and fry it, just like touching the ends of your jumper cables together. I...

Doesn't like dealing with someone that unstable?

:yeah: :shark: :yeah: :yeah: :splat: https://mobile.twitter.com/SarahHuckabee/status/1302756376448561153 The malicious lies about @realDonaldTrump from anonymous sources in the Atlantic are disgusting.

A Trumper on Facebook claimed five people have come out to dispute the Atlantic article. Does anyone know who these people are? How would they know what Trump did or did not say if they were not with him every minute? One is Sarah Huckabee Sanders. She lied for him every day on the job. Fox News is...

Ha ha - wasn't me. Here is a pic of Karl sitting in a park handing out Skousens while sitting under a silly flag. Rachel posted it today but I don't know when the pic was taken.

Okay no laughing! Going through a stack of old books (15+ years or more) I came across one I never had read. Primary Colors. The story seems almost inspirational compared to the Tantrump saga. Really enjoyed it though. Gotta Love the choice of Mammoth Falls.

I've been staring at the big cardboard box from our last Chewy delivery, thinking, "I can turn that into a 60* Cadillac and "drive" it up and down the street to entertain the neighbors." I already made a 57 Chevy and a 58 Corvette, so it's not like they aren't expecting it. *My first thought was th...

I'm definitely good with that!

Cheese dip and Oreo cookies???

Chicken lips and limeade?

Bacon, eggs, and Budweiser. The breakfast of champions. At least the ones who worked 3rd shift.

When I think back on all the crap I learned in high school, it's a wonder I can think at all. My lack of education hasn't hurt me. I can read the writing on the wall. I see what you did there. And bravo. (brava?) And soon you'll be standing in line for the KODACHROME vaccine (dosage in f-stops dete...

I fainted once in my life. I had a pinched nerve in my back. PRO TIP: Never get a pinched nerve in your back. I was hospitalized. Traction wasn't working. They decided to give me a spinal block. :yeah: :yeah: They showed me the needle. Biggest damn needle I've ever seen, looked like the thing insid...

STAY HYDRATED!! In my misspent youth I lived about a ½ mile from Cincinnati Gardens.This was in the days before the Gardens got a Zamboni so from the time I was about 13 I was a rink-rat. I played on a hockey team which would have been a senior open team in Canada. My teammates were aged 15 to 43, m...

I've fainted a few times since having triple bypass surgery in 2016. If I get dehydrated it takes my bp low and I sometimes pass out. Of course early on I was totally unaware of this new normal. So not too long after the surgery just about the time I could cough without having to grab the teddy bear...

That cat will likely give me nightmares.

It was reported that they drove.

Iirc it was reported they were going to drive. I thought at the time that that was not going to happen.

Ha - I did - I forgot to mention Sporky's brush with death because of his stupidity.

I couldn’t get it to load. What happened?

He takes his eyes off the road (more so than usual) to end the stream and damn near has a wreck.

That stupid rant almost ended very poorly. Watch the very end.

Just listened to Dewine's (Ohio) presser. Kind of a nothingburger, he "asked" all Ohioans to wear masks. No mandate other than the 12 counties already requiring them. More of a pep talk than anything else. I was expecting more. Sorry about that. I thought he started out better. To be fair to Dewine...

Pete Rose is a shit human being, many many years ago I waited tables in a high end Restaurant where he was tight with the owners and ate free three days a week. So just imagine a very needy table for 4-5 where one feels the need to be worshiped and a comped check for $300, and a $5 tip. FFS I had t...
