I seem to use all my patience for stupid at the office. Once I'm home I tend to have a shorter fuse.
I actually have a few liberal friends, soley because they can have a fact based conversation. What I find is that we actually agree on about 80% of things but the 20% we don't is a difference in philosophy. They think government is the answer and I think government is the problem. Its ok to agree to disagree.
Nate, if you have a group of people that you think a compatible, go for it. I like the idea of a web site or someother way to avoid all the back and forth via text. We used to do that years ago when we first got married and had no money (well, not that we have any now, but back then it was thin) We called it "sketti" night. One couple would make the spaghetti and the rest would bring beer and sides.
I think it was more about drinking and being social that the spaghetti.....

OK Nate that looks good.
I want to recreate a steak I've had at capital grille. Its a porchini mushroom rubbed bone in ribeye with a 15 year balsamic vinegar glaze. I have to do some research on powdering dried porchini mushrooms and making a glaze. Then I have to drop the coin on prime steaks but it shouls still be cheaper than a trip to capital grill

Probably not but I might change my name. Idaho has some diverse areas and some areas have lots of rain and mild winters.

Id have to do some more research, but there are a few criteria
conservative state with strong 2a stance. 30-35 inches rainfall a year (little to no supplimental irrigation required for crops). reasonable cost of land, $4000 or less. Modest taxes.
That is where I would like 50-100 acres ideally bounded by very large tracts, preferrably, govnerment land.
bit of a needle in the haystack. Not much rain out west. Idaho comes to mind, though.

lol. thanks guys. If I can get the wife used to the cold, i'd consider buying a place in CO/UT/WY, ID
She wants to keep our place here and have a "summer place" up north after we retire.
Will be going back to SLC to visit for sure.

Army Command Sgt. Maj. John Troxell, the senior enlisted adviser to the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, posted the threat Tuesday on Facebook and made similar comments during a recent holiday tour with the USO.
“ISIS needs to understand that the Joint Force is on orders to annihilate them. So, they have two options should they decide to come up against the United States, our allies and partners: surrender or die!” the post said.
“If they choose not to surrender, then we will kill them with extreme prejudice, whether that be through security force assistance, by dropping bombs on them, shooting them in the face, or beating them to death with our entrenching tools,” he added.
The post also featured the hashtag #ISIS_SurrenderOrDie.

I’m glorified overhead at a fortune 20 company and a lead the sales and account management team. This was a meeting to discuss our distribution strategy since we use brokers to sell our products.
Ken not sure. San Diego in March and Minneapolis in May is all I have scheduled at the moment.
The grand American hotel in SLC is as nice a hotel as I’ve ever stayed in and I’ve stayed in a lot. I think that will be a family trip with the kids in the not too distant future when they get some more snow.

Yes. I have some collar stays for my dress shirts that have neodymium magnets to hold the collar. About the size of a small hearing aid battery and hard to pull apart.

looks tasty, Jon.
Interesting that most soups nowadays (commercial) are devoid of many health benefits because there is too little time spent boiling the carcass and bones. That is a wonderful source of glucosimine and is great ofr your joints.
Making your own stock and reducing with bones and carcass in is a great way to maximize your money, have healthier soups and dishes and it can be frozen in cubes to drop into dishes as needed right from the freezer

JR. Instrument lights are analog and incandescent so you should be able to trace the circuit board path to the connector at the top and put an ohm meter to confirm which pin it is at the top. Then turn on you lights and see if you have power at that connector. That will narrow it to either the cluster or wiring
Just for you Norm!!

who really knows, Shawn. I have 2 girls, 12 and 14. I may never see retirement. My hope is 10-12 years, but retirement for me would just mean doing something different. Small business or something until they kick dirt on me. I can't stand not to be doing something.

Been a while since I’ve updated here. Not much Happening other than maintenance. Installed a Beans Sump and replaced the motor on the AD165 under warranty. Changed the oil and rotated tires. Replaced all the color matched door handles with standard black ones since the lock cylinder got punched out of one by a would be thief. Had to rebuild the lock cylinder too. Washer pump went out so I had to pull the battery tray. Had some of the caliper paint left over and I decided to paint the tray since it was rusting. (just for you, Norm) Had a rear window regulator go bad. Bought an AC delco on Amazon. Ordered the right instead of the left. Decided to keep it since I had replaced both the fronts before putting the dynamat sound deadener in, and with replacing the left rear, the only one that is not new will be the right and I'm sure it will die sooner or later.... Now, since I had already dynamatted the rear doors, opening them up to get to the regulator was a royal pain.... But got it done. Then the instrument cluster PRNDL and odometer display quit working. Dave, Ryan, Kyle and others, pay attention here. Known defect in the OBS trucks. One solder joint breaks and repairing it is pretty straighforward. Got that done this morning. 5 minutes to pull the cluster, 5 minutes to disassemble. 30 minutes to locate readers and magnifying glasses and a soldering iron I misplaced...2 minutes to solder and 5 minutes to reinstall. Now the hydroboost is leaking and I bought one but havent had time to mess with it yet. I've spent 4 months working on the Casita and not much other than maintenance on the 4 vehicles are getting done. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So got the additional metal pieces and got them installed on the porch. Aside from a few small trim pieces that I'll need to install after the hardie goes up, I'm done with the roof.
Windows are in and I started foaming the gaps, On the recommendation of a builder, I went to a place in Houston called the Door Clearance Center. So busy its a zoo but good deals. Probably saved $400 on two doors.
Got a pre hung fiberglass door and ordered a matching slab door so that I can replace the door on the main house to match the Casita.
door installed and ripped a shim for the strike side of the jamb that gives me a solid piece of wood shim between frame and studwall. Will get a heavy duty striker plate and anchor 4-6 long screws in it.
Took the trailer back and put all new tires on it getting ready for a 4900lb load of hardie plank, which I ordered. Hope to pick that up next week and get started on hardie. Got my coil nailer ready and a case of nails, will see how I like that brand before getting some more.
Having trouble getting my 2 1/2 inch finish nailer running. got some replacement seals but still having trouble. If it won't run I'll probably just buy another one for the trim.
