    Is that evinrude a FICHT? I think it is. Look up on it. It's the engine that bankrupted Evinrude. Definetly look into it. If that is what it is, worst engine made in the last 50 years if not more. literally bankrupted Evinrude and the name only survives today because Bombardier bought the name...

    The Fishing Thread

    Just pointing out that historically people that bought the downsize engine like a 135 when it was rated for 150 or a 175 when it was rated for 200 normally didn't put a lot into maintenance either. This comes from personal experience and from the owner of basscat boats in a conversation about...

    Those pre-EFI series Mercury's will suck down gas like you wouldn't believe. Also in my experience when someone puts a non standard engine on a boat like the 135 or 175 it means they got the lowest power rating and then other things suffered money wise as well.

    Anyone have any experience with Zoloft. I've had problems relaxing, not mentally but physically. I walk around and I realise my shoulders are up to my jaw. My teeth are clenched all the time. I purposely move my shoulders down and 2 minutes later same thing. Dr. prescribed zoloft so wondering if...

    I like when they do a new development and they have 2 house plans and a right/left of each of those for 4 total. The rest is just adding extras and paint schemes. See this even in housing areas of $400k which isn't exactly cheap in the south. Never understood it.

    Innervate and Ragnaros the firelord. Played first Rag on the 2nd turn and that was it. Game ended on turn 4 having taken zero damage. 5-0 run so far with only one game lasting to the 4th round. Gotta love Rag on turn 1 or 2 lol. HAHA too much fun. 10-0 wth LOTS of people conceding once...

    You can go to a private lab and get a B12 test for <$50 and they'll give B12 shots without a prescription for $20.

    I know when they do these developments and have a model home, that model home will cost twice what they quote as a normal house there by the time you add in all the extras that are in the house. Paying extra for air tho really takes the cake. Knew a guy who bought a tract house about 25 years...

    Cigars and Cigarettes

    Big changes in the cigar world. Apparently tucked away in the new vaper law cigars that are handrolled and such have to be submitted for FDA approval. Considering how often they change and the number of varietes they produce I don't see that happening.

    The E-cig Thread

    According to the new rule Cigar (each variety) will have to be submitted to the FDA for approval. So goodbye botique cigars as well. Nobody is going to submit a hand rolled cigar for approval considering they are normally limited and change constantly.

    I saw that. I'm wondering if it's due to lack of tax money from cigarettes, or the number of explosions of vapers in the face of people. Or a matter of kill 2 birds with one stone type of deal.

    Starting to lose my brain. Checking a drawing today for my dad and I missed something so simple it's below level 101. Missed the gauge of a 3" angle which I've done literally a million times in the last 25 years. Worried.

    Never followed the Sandusky thing. What made him so valuable that people could look the other way for so long? I don't condone it, but I could somewhat see what would motivate people to look the other way if a person was key to whatever. I don't think he was, was he?

    Online wasn't available when I was in school. The dean would meet with every student every semester and specically tell you which cross campus courses (those not in our college/major) you could sleep thru and it wouldn't matter as long as you got a C lol. I complained about our entomology...

    I need to pick another course. I can't really believe the one I picked is a college level course. I took the first couple of exams and passed by watching a total of 20 minutes out of 4 hours of lectures. Think I just picked the wrong one to start with. Seriously, did we need a 5 minute...

    I took the first test for 6002 electrical engineering focused on the abstraction. IE using a resistor instead of having to know all the laws that go into what makes a resistor and got a 100 on it. We'll see. It's focused on circuit design and the first exam was stuff like figure out the voltage...

My weak point...

    His blood work came back and the only thing he was allergic to was pine pollen. He's pretty shit out of luck there since he lives on basically a longleaf pine plantation and you can't walk more than 5 feet in this state without running into a pine plantation. I went to a new internist...

    Add 2 clamps, so you can hold a 2x4 down on a sheet of plywood to run the circular saw against it to make a long straight cut.

    If you are wanting something small just buy it. You don't need all that stuff however. I built my parents a 12x16' building using nothing but a circular saw, a level, and two squares.

    Just get a large fixed wing and you can fly relatively fast to cover ground when needed, or can hover vertically in one spot. Plus you could carry 10 lbs of gear easily if not more. Just a suggestion lol.
