  1. I shouldn’t even comment on this, because this kind of crap just makes me so angry I can’t see straight. My goodness !!!! 😳 A person (an agnostic/atheist to boot) who has trouble coping with the fact that some people on the internet have different views than they do..... might need to schedule an appointment with a psychologist.
  2. Yeah, the boss I have now is way-WAY cooler than all the peckerwoods I have worked for in the past. He's the best!!! Love that dude. 😊
  3. I catch a few every year, usually worming brushpiles in June/July here on LO. Caught an absolute giant one year on a stupid Carolina rigged Zoom Centipede. Had to be pushing 30#, I couldn't even get it lifted up into the boat.
  4. Just a good soap & water wash, and a wipe-down with prep-sol. A scrub brush around any rivets or crazy corners is good.
  5. Suddenly the world has changed. For all of my life, people were considered worthless losers if they didn't show up everyday for work unless they truly had one foot in the grave. Now it's acceptable to skip out over a hangnail. 😏
  6. Assuming that your painting a boat......I'm set up for Aluminum Oxide primer and Marsh Grass Green. I don't mess with trying to shoot any other colors. Any good auto body shop will do it though.
  7. I don't pay much attention to the numbers, I just look at the graph. If it's a flatline for the last several days then it's likely clear and stable. If it's headed up I usually wait until it peaks and depending on how high it crests I may or may not go. The rate at which it might be falling out let's you know whether or not it's even worthwhile to bother. If it's dropping 10-12" per day then I either hit a few spots by land and just wade, .... or I stay home and mow/rake/shovel.
  8. It's hilarious now! 😂 So will all of this Covid crap be.....as soon as everyone quits freakin'out and whining about it.
  9. I took precautions. I bought insurance. 👍
  10. Yeah, I wouldn't know anything about that. 🙄
  11. They sure were quick to deploy a fuel/water sensor, and tie it into the ECM. Wonder why there's no oil/water sensor ? Things that make you go Hmmm 🤔
  12. I know, right ! If only you weren't hung like a hummingbird. 😢
  13. Tornadoes don't come down and dance around the country for 2 years without going away......or else there'd be plenty of tornado deaths.
  14. Yeah if I was good lookin' then I'd REALLY be hesitant to wear a mask. It must suck to be as sexy as you....and be forced to cover it up. I feel for ya, bro.
  15. Well thank you, but I'm sure most everyone goes through a period of stupidity in their life. It's what allows us to speak from experience. I've done equally stupid things in nearly all aspects of my life. Made bad relationship choices. Made bad financial choices. Drove trucks into ponds.....You name it, I'm no stranger to spontaneous stupidity.
  16. I agree. There's a few kids around my town that would benefit everyone if they were laid up for a week with 104° fever.
  17. Yeah, you probably do too. If you're in my face talking and laughing.....then you're spitting on me. I guess I put myself in danger by being an enjoyable person to talk to, hu? In the end only dickheads that everybody hates will remain. 🤣
  18. Well if you truly cared about them then you'd tell them. Wouldn't ya? 😂
  19. Dentist's say that's not good for dental health. You know darn well those kids aren't brushing their teeth 4 times per day. Halitosis and/or pyorrhea outbreak soon to come.
  20. I'm a nice guy, but I'm gonna say "no". I'll gladly keep my distance from everyone...as long as they haven't already walked up, spit on me, and held out their hand. I don't do that to anyone, but people do it to me all the time. What should I do, launch a Billy Jack kick to the head as soon as they are within range? Not my style.
  21. That appears to be a considerable amount of water. Not merely condensation in my opinion. Keep an eye on the oil level (dipstick) to see if the level is noticably increasing. And if it is, take note of the color of it. Milky white is water contamination, and no noticable color change means that fuel is entering the crankcase.
  22. Ok, but concrete barriers instead of paint-striped yellow lines would save even more, so let's do that first. The money saved on insurance premiums will more than pay for it. As harsh as it sounds, you can't deny that there is a population problem. All you are witnessing is nature doing what nature does. Block it one way....and it will find another.
  23. Shouldn't we all wear bulletproof vest and hard hats too ? Everybody is toting a loaded gun, and there are lots of heavy things on those store shelves that are above our heads. Let's also not neglect approved eye protection, cuz you never know what can go pinging off the edge of someone's shoe sole or car tire. It's a dangerous world out there.
  24. The fault code will clear itself after 3 run cycles with no repeat. But it will always remain in the run history. Assuming that there was enough water circulating to keep friction from distorting the sealing ring edges of the impeller is a bit of a gamble. 100.00 could potentially save 7,000.00
  25. I went through a phase with it here on Lake O, and also on Lake Lanier in GA. Did really well with it, but honestly mostly short fish with only the very rare 3 pounder. A jig head with a Zoom Swamp Crawler worm on it always outperformed any bucktail/marabou/fur strip jig I ever used.
