no traffic since WW went to bed at dawn? geez.
I must be a timezone ahead or something.
I think a lot of people are a little nervous...or maybe it's just a severe case of snarkalepsy....
Those pics of Grenada and the "Mandalay" were pretty cool...6° note - my "Uncle" Paul Mitchell used to Captain the Atlantis II out of Woodshole....."uncle" meaning my dad's blood brother from childhood.

I guess no one else is up.....
 
1) worked on the handle mods for a BK2 (broke 2 jigsaw blades - the copper plate I'm cutting through seems to be rather stout - gotta get more tomorrow)

Copper work-hardens easily - even just by rolling it into sheet or forming tubing. Anneal it by heating to red-hot and quenching in water (I know that sounds bass-ackwards from steel, but copper/brass/bronze is weird that way). It will cut much, much easier then. Use a fine-tooth saw blade.

It shouldn't taste any different, if all they take out is caffeine. To my knowledge, it's flavorless.

Right. I can't tell the difference between leaded Coke and caffeine-free. :thumbup:

SNARK!

I agree, I smile and move on, but others see that as sassing, oh well wont happen again.

You keep saying that, and yet you pull that stuff about once a week, bro, and refuse to let it go for at least a day - often many days. Take it from me... Never miss a good chance to just shut the heck up. I say this out of nothin' but love.

end SNARK!

Speaking of stoves, I saw this on BCUSA. One of the simplest I've seen...

That's been all over FB for the last week or so, too. I like it... simple is good. My 60-yr old aunt even tried and liked it, and she's about as far from a survivalist as it gets :) I did have to explain to her why the can wouldn't just melt, though... :rolleyes: :D

I like snow in the pictures.

In real life not so much. after the first day it turns to half mud half ice, gets black, mushy icy dirty snow piling up on the sides of roads....just not pretty.

Now somewhere off in the country where a million people are not going thru it... then it looks a little better, still doesnt feel good.
 
Looks like I might have a BK9 being delivered today :D

The RTAK 2 is excited to have a competitor.
 
Not true. Snow. I like snow.
Sure smooths out the hiking trails....when it's been packed down. I'm always amazed that it gets packed down so fast - wouldn't think that many people are on any given trail after a snowstorm. I always take the snowshoes as a precaution, but 99 times out of a 100 I don't need to use them. Which is good, 'cause they S:DCK!
 
I blame you and your obsession with the 9, which seems a little unhealthy, to say the least.

*lol*

I thought WW meant 32C, and thought "damn, that's HOT for November!"
Gotta switch gears back to US units.

It never needs to be this cold.

Scraped ice off my windsheild here in Seattle for the first time this morning. Going to be a cold morning on the excavator...

I like snow. What Hoss said.

the ONE thing I like about the garage, it stays 65 year round. Unfortunately I can't do any work in there cause my tools would/do get stolen.

Well, ain't you just a pretty little princess "32f is too cold, 32c is too hot..." good lorde!
 
LMAO, the weather needs to just do what i say when i say it!!


Man so Michael kills libby and micheal rodriguez or ana lucia. At first that upset me... but then i started thinking what would I do for one of my kids....

Kill another to save your own child? Maybe not the right moral thing to do, but i cant say right or morale would be what i was thinking about either if one of my children's lives were on the line.
