    Jasper remanufactured engines, thoughts?

    I've known of Jasper for quite some time, but have no experience with engines rebuilt by them (at least that I know of). I'm looking at a "kid" car to replace our Mountaineer that just - finally - croaked. And I've run across an older Pontiac in very good shape at a reasonable price. Part of...

    If you're on a Mac, all F5 should do in Safar is is dim your screen :) "F" or function keys on the Mac don't work the same as they do on Windows machines (though I had to test it out a bit to make sure I was right about that). Refresh "button" is circled in red at the top of each screen shot...

    toneeees Looks like it's a Safari issue. I can recreate the problem in iOS and on the Macbook in Safari, but not in Chrome or Firefox. In iOS if you hover on a link, it'll give you the yella' box preview. Click into the topic and then hit the back arrow and the box doesn't disappear. It may...

    Ruger LCP vs. S&W Bodyguard

    MT's AR Topic got me thinkin' maybe there are some opinions on the forums about these pistols. Any of y'all have or have experience with either the Ruger LCP or the Smith & Wesson Bodyguard? I'm looking for a small pistol as a carry gun. I've got a medium frame 9mm, but it's a little tough to...

    Once you've completed a track, you can send it via email to yourself and view it in any mapping software. I pulled up the track: Sent it to myself and then viewed it in Google Earth: ​ You can see my "diversion" over to the fuel dock coming off Collier Bay.

    Navionics APP - iPhone

    Menus are pretty easy to figure out: Here you can see I have one track stored (the track from Naples to the Island), two routes (the route from Naples to the Island, and from the Island down to Marco) and 3 Markers (the house, the cars and the Winn Dixie). Map options are just below that...

    Navionics APP - iPhone

    The app is available for both Android and IOS, and it will run on a tablet if you have GPS on it. You would have to download your maps while connected to WIFI or cell connection. I used the app for a couple of different runs I did recently in Naples, FL. This is one I routed from our island...

    Navionics APP - iPhone

    I just wound up using this app more substantially than usual this week and thought I'd do a quick write-up on it. It wasn't expensive, and certainly is not a tool to challenge the bigger systems. But for what I do inland, and recently on the ICW it worked very well. I've used the app in the...
