  1. That's just beyond pathetic...
  2. Nice video here of one of our hard-working, responsible, well-paid (with great benefits) postal employees doing what a few in every profession do best... http://www.news.ruralinfo.net/2014/05/video-inappropriate-postal-behavior-usps-throws-package-in-rain-while-im-home.html
  3. Put a mower and a chain-gun on that, and you'd really have something useful.
  4. Hmmm...I always thought he was just a Mason...
  5. Man, I haven't seen one of these for decades, and all of those were gluebombs. Nice job. That dual-Paxton blow-through setup would sure look good on something...
  6. The Little Engine that REALLY could ? Rails...we don' need no stinking rails...
  7. Beautiful work, Steve.
  8. One seriously flashy car. Beautiful.
  9. Great concept, clean execution. This is one I'd like to see done full-scale.
  10. That's not a toy, sport. And people in general are only too happy to post every detail of their personal lives online. The "man" doesn't have to dig very hard to get anything. Privacy hasn't been "taken" from the American people...it's been mindlessly given away.
  11. If it's supposed to be raised above the surface, 1/4 round or 1/2 round styrene strip. Carefully.
  12. No worries mate. It's just Chinese heavy-metal sludge from recycling American electronics mixed in with the plastic to stretch it a bit. It's only a little toxic, really.
  13. I agree, but where there's a well thought out deer population management program in place, and the animals culled are actually eaten (as opposed to being put in the freezer 'til the meat is so old or freezer-burned as to be inedible), I don't have a problem with hunting (though I know a few "hunters" who'd pee their pants if anything pointed a gun at them).
  14. Nice technique. Quick too, if you use a Dremel for rough shaping after the glue sets hard.
  15. Nope. Taking the bike (pedal variety) next week.
  16. Interesting. I wonder how many consumers are totally turned off, just like you were, by this marketing "good idea".
  17. The A-10 Warthog lawnmower would help to keep my neighbors in line, for sure. (A-10...best damm ground-support aircraft in the history of flight)
  18. At least some of it became venison too...mmm...deer burgers!
  19. Amazing how much of life we miss sealed in our climate-controlled boxes. I walked the 4+ miles home from work yesterday afternoon and smelled flowers, freshly mown grass, newly-turned earth in a garden, bread baking...heard lots of birds singing, saw a young hawk up close...pretty nice. Saw a couple old cars I would have missed otherwise, including a nicely restored, bright orange '69 GTO Judge.
  20. Yeah...compost it !! Seriously, apple cores and banana peels do zero environmental damage, don't have to be cleaned up because they disappear, and critters (birds, squirrels) can get some benefit from them.
  21. Very nice experiment, Mike. Hmmmmm.....
  22. Looks like the Atl freeways after a 1/2 inch of snow.
