Based on —-It’s “fully within our rights as legislators to break quorum to protect our constituents,” he said.—- These folks should be able to file against those who initiated these arrest warrants for frivolous arrests. They were doing their job by not attending the session to protect their constituents.

Half and half. 50% each ingredient.

Next up please. An article on the seat belt “buckle” on the ‘69 Mercedes 25o that did NOT insert into a receptacle. It had a hookish end to fit under the receiving side.

To prevent swimmers ear and other ear ailments from swimming mix up a small batch of half and half white vinegar and rubbing alcohol. The alcohol mixes with the water easily pulling it from the surface of the ear and the vinegar provides the ph balance to be easy on the skin. Ear wax does not allow water to wet out on…

When we drove our ‘76 VW camper bus into Detroit in 1984 (on our honeymoon) as soon as we parked, the owner of the only other VW (a bug) we saw in the state ran over and gave us a hug.

That will be me, that person for whom touchscreens do not work reliably. My phone is the recipient of multiple taps of increasing intensity just to engage one action. Apparently I am either dead, have no pulse, or have fingers with zero conductivity. Sorry about that recipient on the other side of a touchscreen on a…

Don’t forget the provision that prevents providing food or water to voters is really an excuse to call out the troopers to “keep an eye” on the food/water givers, aka intimidate voters.

I deftly paralleled parked in a somewhat tight parking space on the first try in a small town in the California foothills. I received a “good parking!” from a local. It was typical parking for me, but it was nice to receive the compliment.

And even some of us who have received the benefits, do know it.

Ah, a good use of duct tape. Any information on who had some handy? Passenger or the crew for this purpose?

I bought a ‘92 F350 longbed dually crewcab and I didn’t get a half hour away before a tire blew out. The PO had just driven it well over 40 miles from a isolated place over some twisty turny roads. Of course the tire waited for me to blow. I had to replace all 6 tires. I was heading home to pick up my DD for a trip. I…

Cookies! Not just for breakfast anymore!

Apparently they expect people to actually purchase a newly designed vehicle in a size not offered before without even getting an opportunity to sit in one, let alone drive one?

The culprit is the right wing media. They make bank off of treating anything and everything by Republicans and 45** in particular as a message from god, and everything from Democrats as completely evil and a plot to kill you. Hate sells and they know how to sell hate.

We met the previous owner of the house we now have during the buying process. Somehow we found out that he had brain cancer and didn’t have long to live. Sure enough there was a memorial for him 6 months after we moved in. We attended the memorial and via some photos displayed we saw the house in a few pictures over…

I had a ‘64 VW deluxe sunroof bus and while it was completely reliable, it would only go 54 MPH. So, I found a ‘67 deluxe sunroof bus at a good price, and regretted it soon. Took it on a long trip with 3 kayaks on top. I stupidly let someone else drive while I napped. Such a bus -will- go 65 MPH, however not for…

The parking brake on my Sunbeam Alpine was on the left, between the door and driver seat like Porsche.

I had driven a little ways out of regular commute to pick up a load of fresh turkey manure for our garden. About a half hour from home, I heard a severe grinding noise from the right rear wheel. Probably a bad wheel bearing. It was at 5:00 and of course the nearest shop would not take it at closing time.

We have three dogs, 7 yo male Westi, 3 yo female Cavilier, and a 6 month old female Mini Golden Doodle (MGD). The two females are food-driven and will eat anything and everything, while the Westi has to be coaxed into eating. The Westi takes a few kibbles out of the bowl and leaves them as tribute to the others. After…

I own a decent digital caliper that displays decimal inch, metric, and fractions. However, most of the time I reach for my cheap plastic one. I just want to know the nearest standard fractional size of something. Is it a 5/16" or 3/8", 6mm or 7mm? How does the digital caliper display of 41/128" compare? The digital…
