  1. And as soon you enter the area begin a rendition of... Ninety-Nine Bottles of Beer on the wall.....
  2. Here's HOW they do it. Now if someone could just explain WHY they do it..... ?
  3. So if it takes a special "charger", how much is it going to cost to have one of those chargers at your home?
  4. I find this to be 100% true.
  5. Everybody is pissing and moaning about the price of gas, but yet the same people will drive 40 extra miles just for an ice cream cone. Nobody bitches about the cost of insurance, or the fact that the state charges sales tax on USED cars, and personal property tax on top of that. If you drive to work every day, and the cost of fuel is hurting you.....then tell your employer that you need a raise to compensate for it. Just keep in mind that the recreational unnecessary (stupid, for no good reason) driving that you do....is on YOU. No matter how expensive a gallon of gas gets.....the roads are ALWAYS clogged up with people going wherever for whatever. But then they complain about it. 🙄
  6. The old patternable ritual of Pre-spawn, Spawn, Post-spawn.... from the upper lake area moving downlake to the dams.... Just isn't a thing this year. Cold snaps, drastic water level fluctuations, and such things just make it all unpredictable. The Redbuds and Dogwoods have all come and gone, and still no major spawning movements by any species. The only thing left that we have to mark it by is the full moon.
  7. I think so, they are either burritos or egg rolls. I've never tried them though. If you're ever going through Laurie, and you are hungry, that G2M DELI is the bomb!
  8. Good stuff. Sounds like a blast.
  9. I haven't gotten to get out alot yet this spring, but from what I can tell the peak spawn activity for crappie, Whites, and Green bass is still yet to come. I'll almost bet ya that the last week of May (memorial day weekend) will be the balls to the wall action that everyone is looking for. Full moon is on the 26th. It all seems late this year here at Lake O, and Pomme is probably about the same.
  10. Big honker gills are a blast ! I wish this lake had them.
  11. oops, wait. 1998 225 has a different ignition system I think. Disregard the HS stator/switchbox commentary. If it is ignition related then it's a TPS issue. Check the linkage rod to the TPS. (Port side, looks like a box of matches). I really should always ask for serial number on Mercs before I start spouting off
  12. The only truly good Optimax tech that I knew and felt confident sending people to, sadly passed away last year. 😥 I'm sure there are a few others out there, somewhere.....but I've yet to meet them.
  13. Ha! Noooo! You can just take that SOB right to the Mercury dealer of your choice. 😂 They'll figure it out eventually. I only tackle Optimax running problems for people whom I don't know or don't like......so I can stick it in their @$$ with a fat bill, and not feel guilty about it. 👹
  14. Heck no! The youngest kid loves those things. All they are is bread dipped in chicken broth. These were the REAL DEAL from the G2M deli. Real meat and real pickles. Yum! They were out of potato wedges, califlower, and shrooms. 😥
  15. As long as I tell her that Piper said it..... I'm golden 👍
  16. It just washed down some chicken strips and fried pickles. Where the chicken lost its life is irrelevant. 😋
  17. Check out the new for 2021 MGD labels, baby!!!! Sweet!
  18. I'll tell her you said so. Thanks 👍
  19. It used to be SHOTGUN ONLY at Reform.
  20. Have the voltage regulator(s) tested first (at idle). If that tests ok, then test the HIGH SPEED circuit stator output on both banks. Odds are that you have a stator AND switch box failure. If you replace JUST the stator you'll likely be buying yet ANOTHER stator within 25 hours of run time. So if stator HS output is not up to spec.....replace stator AND switchboxes. You can sell the old switchboxes (separately) to someone needing a 3 cylinder switchbox.....but they'll never be safe on a V6 again.
  21. Don't you need a little extra cash? C'mon over with that Sweet Ride and lets haggle over it. I'll throw in a free fishing trip, and besides....I owe you some liquor. 😎
  22. One or more spark plugs not firing should have set an O2 sensor code. I remain unconvinced. We'll see. 🤔
  23. No denying any of that. I've known him since he didn't have a pot to piss in, nor a window to throw it out of. Longer than THIS forum has been in existence. If he's busier now than he was then.... it's only because he wants to be. . 😊
  24. I dunno, maybe because he likes HUNTING/FISHING, and likes the people here? How can he be "our very own DD" if he avoids BSing with us? Hasn't even responded to (or "liked") a thread with his name in the title.....for crying out loud. I know where YOU are going though, and you're wrong. It isn't because OF ME ! Doty, you still love me, right? 😘
