The worst was 55 gallon drums of guava pulp and cocaine we seized and had to be around for the chain of custody when the guys from the lab tested and extracted the dope.

The smell was horrendous. It got in your clothes, your hair, your skin. (I still can't be around guava.)

Check out the magistrate's name. LOL.

I think the magistrate was married to Salotta Snow.

My yard is often a deer maternity ward and part of the local nursery. Usually, a couple older females watching over 6-12 young ones.
I’ve watched quite a few births. Once mama goes into labor she doesn’t move until the job is done.

Last season we had one giving birth under the rhododendron behind our home.
 
Last night while watching an Aussie crime show called "Underbelly" the power went out a little after 10.

First time we've needed the new generator to kick on other than "exercising" since we got it.

Outage went on for about four hours.

Nice to have the generator...though unfortunately we couldn't go back to the show as the trees that took down the power and related equipment also knocked out the signal to the modem / router and we didn't want to stream it on the phone.

DirecTV wasn't affected though.
 
I should try this.

T15 on mine (fk1). I tried before I answered. Did you change torx size in the last two years, Jo the Machinist Jo the Machinist ?

I just checked again on some of my knives and it seems I have some earlier Ti Torx sets that are @T-15 size and also some newer (more recent) sets that are @T-20.

Nutramac may have meant one Torx size bigger vs. one size smaller?

As far as know all the black oxide hex screws and even the newer stainless hex screws are the same size, and all use the same sized Allen wrench.

Thanks. The Hex/Allen screws on my BFK are 3/32, which do fit a T10, but that’s a hack.
 
Fawking great. A fire has just started up Index-Galena road. Had grown from 1/4 acre to 10 acres in the last 5 minutes. Supposedly in heavily wooded vegated area with winds blowing 20-25 at the moment west right towards us. That’s about 6 miles away from us. I told the wife I’m not leaving this time until I see it come over the hill into our backyard.
