The Eastern Upstate strikes again https://www.wpri.com/new-england/vermont/watch-vermont-man-attacks-troopers-with-excavator-to-stop-sons-arrest/

I never get a bowl of peas like that :( I snack on them when I'm walking around the garden so there's never enough for a big pull :)

Roe Jan Brewery is a pretty cool little spot a few blocks off Rt 22 in Hillsdale (10 minutes from Catamount)419862419863

I didn't think boats that high would fit under some of the low bridges. Huh

Yes

Today I learned how easy it is to change the pads in 4 pot Brembos. Pop the pin and the pads just slide out (with a bit of persuasion). Seating all 4 pistons equally is another thing but I figured it...

You have to start early to deal with living here :D

We got a Lab puppy 2 weeks ago, is there anything a lab won't try to put in its mouth? Lol. She's the sweetest, cuddliest little thing I've met in a long time. 419763sleeping on the couch with our 10...

You know what might be good is Cowboy Toilet Paper (Great Mullein). It grows very well throughout the west, just clip the flowers as they go to seed or you'll have Mullein forest in a year or two....

I'm not sure what a few of those are but one thing stands out. They're mostly more hatchback like with the raked rear window, IMO a good wagon (or utility oriented SUV) has a near vertical window....

Yup

I must be misunderstanding something, my Pixel 6 has a power button. The top one blacks out the screen and to reactivate it after a touch I need to fingerprint or put in a code. If the screen is...

When it comes up in conversation you can see people getting uncomfortable just thinking about going to the city.

Mmm, Warehouse BBQ.

Re: 81N - In a lightweight car it's kinda fun.

The tires had to come off the extra wheels because two of them are slightly bent and make the car shake so I bought another set. The replacement wheelset I picked up had a pair of lightly used...

There was a whole round of shop equipment that sold off cheap 2 years ago as a bunch of older guys bailed out and sold their properties during COVID shutdowns. Around here I expect another round soon...

Yup as it downsloped off the Catskills and Adirondacks it fell apart. It was a neat presentation for a few hours focused on Upstate and NE PA.

I had to swap tires from one set of wheels to another so it was removing 8 and mounting and balancing 4. With the disposal fee it was $220. Ouch. I also want a brake rotor lathe. I have a few sets...

I wish I had a tire mounting machine and a balancer. The cost to get this done now is crazy. #Ineedagarage

I'll call him and find out.

Anybody get a look at this line of tstorms beating up a sliver of Upstate? This is time sensitive http://www.meteo.psu.edu/fxg1/WXTYPE/loop25ne.html

Lol

Spanky, this place is cool but it's between the Northway and Ticonderoga on the west side. https://www.thehubadk.com/ That stretch of 22 between Ticonderoga and Whitehall is a dead zone.

Yer just out of the loop dude. Sorry.

It's National Onion Rings Day. Burger King is giving away free onion rings with any purchase over $1.

There's no P ;) That's one of the first 3 cars I'd get if I had garage space. 4spd with OD and touring suspension has been near the top of my list since I was 6.

:wave:

Dude, get the SVX! I've wanted one for 25 years, do it for me :) @Bobby that account name is fkn hysterical.

Don't laugh. As the volume needed plummets over the next 10 or so and the profit goes away years we'll be seeing wells shut in, pipelines close and refineries become unnecessary. There will always be...

It's cultural with visual cues

I don't care.

I saw them plugged in at the mall last winter with the heat running while it was snowing. I was a little jealous.

Putnam and Orange are as far as NYC EMS employees are allowed to live. That goes back at least 50 years but before that it was Westchester on this side and I don't remember what it was on the other...

I've done that with tomatoes that were getting too tall. It works! I never would have thought to do it with weed. Thanks.

Thankfully my garlic didn't quit early it just needed way more water :) 419389What should I do with the scapes? They look so juicy...

Shera, another thing I do is - if it comes out of the ground...

^^ Canopus Hollow is just a few minutes from there. When you go through you can hear random banjo AND fiddle sounds floating through the trees.

Try bordering sections with leafy evergreens. I like Holly but I don't know if it'll grow where you are, it's drought resistant, deer hate it and it fills in pretty thick in just a few years but it's...

The immediate Rt 6 corridor is definitely not but within a mile north of 6 it is.

Thank you.

For all of their foibles those were awfully nice cars to drive and ride in.

RIP Powder11 :(

Now my 80 year old dad is fading physically and mentally but it has brought us closer together than in the last 35 years. Mom is gone but my brother is close so he takes care of the day to day stuff...

I understand the lack of profitability in so many jobs so I ask for help. As often as not I don't understand what's being said or can't figure out how to get to something because I don't know how...

Sawzalls FTW.

I had a somewhat painless end (?) result today. I left the thing alone for a few hours to let everything go to sleep then pulled the neg cable and let it sit for 10 minutes then the...

@Bobby, I sure hope you're right.

Yup a salesman is pretty much obligated to answer but... \/ \/

Yes. Please text me, I will get back to you asap.

I mostly like how my Pixel 6 handles auto callers by screening the call. I get...

Yeah but I just lost 2 weeks of work and I still don't have it solved. I fiddled with it for a while this morning and everything is fine so I need to wait for it to fault again to see if I can find...

We had some discussion about the used market a while back. It's worse now. Fucked is the word that comes to mind.

After a few minutes of arguing with bolts like this I usually just grab a hacksaw or sawzall and cut the fucker off and put in a new bolt. First I'd try a pry bar against the end and push against it...
