    Ideas for a new tool.

    Participation

    Guys and gals, I love what we have here. However, I have some big personal problems that I must now work my way through. I put them on hold when my wife was going through her breast cancer. Everything has done very well with her and I could not be more thankful. But I have a mountain of legal...

    Who worked pumping gas when the were a kid?

    I worked in 4 different stations in a small town beginning at 15 in 1972. I loved the jobs. People were generally nice back then. We worked hard and played hard. Too many stories, many of them unsafe. I found out gasoline vapors kept me sick. To keep vapor emissions low, many don’t know...

    Death smell

    When I had prostate cancer 12 years ago, I thought I was smelling something similar when I urinated. It was Nothing to do with urinary tact materials. It should have been a clue to me then about my own condition but I know this smell. When I can smell, I’m told I have a very keen sense of...

    Death smell

    I have smelled a smell that is very rare but related to a person decaying from the inside out. What would you say to a family member who recently started to smell that way? This is worse than body odor or bad breath combined, yet it's faint. You have to be close to smell it. Anyone know what...

    Empty Nest

My oldest is almost 20 years older than the youngest who is still at home. At my age, I think I would enjoy an empty nest if the youngest could provide for...

    I won't be buying anything from Valvoline in the future...

    They’re in play to leverage their oil to best effect in face of a predicted declining consumption. They’re going to move in to the supply chain in a bigger way.

    SNL ending?

    I used to love he show with the original cast. Each iteration got worse and worse. Now all the cast and crew can go to the place they don’t believe in.

    Building Our Barndominium

    Congrats on the anniversary Kevin. Nothing like being married to a good woman. If you haven't considered it, try to get a reverse osmosis water purifier in the kitchen. I love the water out of ours. I'd rather drink it than most bottled waters.

    FS 1970 Mach 1

    I've been told it was priced a little low. We shall see...I've been going to do this for almost a full year now and just pulled the trigger yesterday. Now I just want it gone. I love the car but have no business with it. Need garage space for a Corvair. On the other hand, I got the first of...
