    Unfortunately in my case I’m carb sensitive. Try to limit myself to 30 grams or less of carbs per day. I can either eat one slice of pizza or a 16 oz. T-bone, green vegetable and a salad. I choose the steak and salad every time

    rodent infestation

    Installed an invisible fence around the house and barn areas. Between our Husky and a Tom cat, few critters dare venture inside the enclosed area. Body parts of those that do typically end up by the front steps or the garage door

    Next time anchor.

    He was in no real danger. Coveted by fisherman, rips are simply breaks in the outer bar where the water from incoming waves rushes back out to sea. Problems begin when you loose your footing and the current starts dragging you out to sea. In a panic, people try swimming back to the beach...

    Interesting note on Permatex #2 While they claim chemical / solvent resistance to gasoline, they don't recommend for use where there is prolonged exposure to aromatic solvents and additives. Funny since 25% of every gallon of gasoline in the United States is comprised of the aromatic...

    Trailer bearing blowout. Need help with repair(s)

    Have had Sure Lubes on my last two trailers. Never had any issue with them. Liked the convenience of annual grease changes. You will blow a seal unless rotating the wheels as per instructions.

    Caffeine good for sleepy old guy ?

    I typically drink 2-3 cups of black coffee before leaving the house in the morning. Drink two more cups during my morning meeting with the Service Department then several more throughout the day. Mix in a few double shot, “Grande” Lattes in here and there for a change of pace
