I eat leftovers most of the time. I'll fix a crockpot of stuff like soup, stew, spaghetti, goulash, etc; and eat it until I get tired of it, then it will go in the freezer in baggies. I can later go exploring in the freezer and pull out out last month's leftovers for a surprise meal.

There will be free shipping Friday Dec 17 on this magnetic drain plug. I have one in my oil pan and another in my rear drive gear of my RSTD. I should order another pair of them for my Millenium. Btw, I also have one in my car's oil pan. Goldplug and MagneticDrainPlug are the same company.

if a particle of metal has made it as far as the oil filter, then its NOT going to get into the engine. Thats what the filter is for.

be cautious here folks. The ivermectin in high enough dosage to be a general parasite control can kill some dogs. The horse dosage is 200mcg/kg body weight. The heartworm preventative dosage for dogs is only 6mcg/kg body weight which is supposed to be safe for all dogs.

Anyone buying the generic heartworm preventative linked here needs to be aware of the following information. I bought the nuheart brand generic ivermection heartworm meds for my new dog and started gving them to her 3 months ago. My older dog still has a supply of the much more costly Interceptor. Bad news. My new dog on the nuheart ivermectin generic has come down with round worms, while my older dog on Interceptor is clean. So what's the difference? It took a bit of research but this is what I think I have found. The generic Nuheart Ivermectin from Australia contains a very low dose of ivermectin, and is 100% equivalent to the US product HeartGard, and will kill heartworm larvae before they can mature. So, it does what it says it will. The product Interceptor will not only kill heartworm larvae, but also round worms and hook worms and whip worms. If one reads up on the product ivermectin, it says it is a broad spectrum parasiticide that kills all of the above, HOWEVER, the dosage of ivermectin to kill the other intestinal worms is 50 times that of the dosage to kill heartworm larvae. The Nuheart ivermectin or HeartGard heartworm medicine will not kill any other parasites in the dosage it is available for dogs. Higher dosage ivermectin has been known to kill several breeds of dogs, so is not generally prescribed for dogs except under very controlled circumstances. The maker of HeartGard ivermection sells a 2nd product called HeartGard Plus which contains the same LOW dosage of ivermectin Plus a dose of the dewormer Pyrantel Pamoate. A trip to Walmart to see what dog wormers they sell yields Hartz brand dewormer tablets which contain Pyrantel Pamoate ($6.34 for 2 tablets, each for 50# of dog). The Interceptor product contains a different medication (milbemycin oxime) which controls multiple parasites. Thinking I may need to take dewormer, since the new puppy has been in the house, and on my bed, I visit the drugstore section of Walmart and and ask about human worm medication. They handed me a product named Pin-X which contains: Pyrantel Pamoate, the same stuff as in the Hartz dog wormer tablets and the HeartGardPlus for dogs... An internet search verifies that Pyrantel Pamoate is used in both humans and canines to eliminate or control internal parasites. (not including tape worms). The human version of Pyrantel Pamoate, ie: Pin-X liquid ($18), contains 60ml of medicine in a concentration of 50mg/ml of Pyrantel. One 50# Hartz tablet contains 113.5mg of Pyrantel. One 50#dog HeartGard Plus tablet contains 114mg of Pyrantel. So, a dog can be given 1 ml of Pin-X for every 22lbs of body weight. The human version says its safe for children over 2 years of age and over 25lbs weight. Bottom line. If you use a ivermectin (only) heartworm preventative (generic or brand name), it will not prevent intestinal worms in your pets like some other products do.

I suspect the thief isn't going anywhere for a long time. assault with a deadly weapon causing injury during the commission of a crime. The taxpayers will be picking up the tab for his Christmas dinner.

The suspect should learn to tie his shoe laces better, you can trip over them things and hurt yourself if you're not careful.

They don't make politicians like that any more. Got a crockpot of spaghetti sauce simmering right now. And some Mich Lite in the fridge. The wind is really whipping the trees around right now. I've got most of the big pines cut back away from the house now, but it was luck the first couple years that kept them off my house when they fell into the yard.

Your sickness is known as GAS (Guitar Acquisition Syndrom).

I thought I remembered from a prior thread that the guy who made these had a patent on them, and that the patent is still in force. If so, you could only make one for yourself, and not for resale.

Well, I did get in a short 2 hour ride this afternoon, It never got as warm as 50, and the sun disappeared about 2:30pm. We're due for low teens temperatures, s**w, and 40mph winds on Sunday. So I got what I could, while I could. My ride had a purpose, to scout out the gas stations with K1 kerosene for my emergency heater in case power goes out. There don't seem to be as many places carrying it from the pump this year, although I can get it for $10/gallon at Walmart.. I went back to the one I found closest to my house and bought 7 gallons of K1, which is enough to heat the center of the house for 3-4 days.

partly sunny and 50F today. Supposed to be in the teens with s**w starting tomarrow. So, i'll be taking the three running bikes alternately out for a run today. I've been expecting the rear tire on the RSV MM to need changing ever since I came back from Potato Creek, but it hasn't quite got there yet. I have a new one waiting to go on.

Quit playing music laid out for the piano, and you won't have to worry about playing Bmajor. The 2 B's you do need to know up in the first 3 fret playing area are the Bminor and B7. I think of the Bminor as an Aminor moved up 2 frets and fingered with my last 3 fingers, and then barred. B7, well, you just need to practice it over and over from E and A. The easiest way to play a B if you have to, because you're playing with another instrument, is to use a capo on the 2nd fret, and play A (transposed 2). House of the Rising Sun is a great practice song. Elderly's is a candy store for guitar-a-holics. I've bought a couple of Larrivee guitars there.

thats a good price if you take in the wheels. Thats an unbelievable price if he takes in the bike.

Which LED Signal LIghts?
RandyR replied to Seaking's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
If you need to put in a resister pack to get the turn signals to blink normally or to turn off any bad bulb display, then you have just defeated the purpose of saving power by using LEDs. The resister pack will draw enough current (and turn it to heat) to fool the turn indicator into thinking it has normal filament light bulbs
