Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

[MustangMike]

I'll bring a couple cases home if I get down that way.

I really like their Lager and their Black & Tan.

My fil turned 88 last week and he's still a baseball fan. Dyed in the wool Tigers fan, but he loved Mickey Mantle.

My mother is 89 and still watches the Yankees… Her favorite was Reggie Jackson. Mike Ferraro was from Kingston... Mike got her a ball signed by Reggie and Pete O’Malloy during the World Series. That was while Reggie was still with the Yankees…

Mr. October was awesome! The Yankees have had more than their fair share of greats!

tell it! Very few people I let use my tools/equipment. I'd rather go and help with my stuff then let them borrow it and bring it back broken and abused.

I wont even loan out a slotted screwdriver or crescent wrench to anyone,not even family,havent for decades.If I have the time I'll take my tools to where they're needed,do the work & return home with them.Nothing stays behind,period.If they dont like those rules,tough **** I say.

Update on the Nikki carb situation. The $20 replacement came today. It now purrs like it should. There must have been a blockage which was the only thing that made sense, but I'm positive I shot carb cleaner through every hole I could find and saw it come out elsewhere. Oh well , I will glad to get it out of my shop either way!

Glad you figured it out! Make sure you tell the owner it only has a taillight warranty.

RIP Pete Rose. Like him or not, you can't deny he was one hell a ball player.

Screwdrivers… so many ways their use can go wrong!

 

[MustangMike]

Yea, but nothing quite bites you like a stuck razor knife!

Guess I'll stick to old faithful....... A butter knife!

Players who abused steroids to enhance their performance were not punished as much as Pete Rose. He got a raw deal.

All Snap-on screwdrivers say "Not to be used as a pry bar, chisel or punch." on the handle. Guess what mine are mostly used as?

Changed the oil

Didn’t look bad at all, but better safe than sorry

I figured from here on out, it’ll be once a year

 

[MustangMike]

Changed mine too ... had not been changed during the first 10+ years ... still starts on 1st or 2nd pull ... and the oil did not look that bad (but it was NOT golden).

I think I'll change mine again in 10 years! Synthetic oil is great!

 

[MustangMike]

That was the oil in my HF generator, guess I should change the oil in my TS 22-ton splitter one of these days too! It has split a lot of wood!
