That’s a beauty, Chris.

I’m late to this thread, but pins are super easy to make and I never bought any back when I was making my own razor scales. I used brass rod stock and washers (on the outside, not between the scales and blade although I did try that). Brass is so soft it easily peens down, and you only have to light...

An old Navy chief walks into a bar, notices a very large jar on the counter,and sees that it's filled to the brim with $10 bills. He guesses there must be at least ten thousand dollars in it. He approaches the bartender and asks, "What's with the money in the jar?" "Well..., you pay $10, and if you ...

Gas weed eaters and blowers are an abomination. They disturb the entire neighborhood and it seems there’s one going almost constantly somewhere nearby. They are also significant polluters. I’ve replaced mine - and even my lawnmower - with battery power, which has improved to the point that they have...

My concern would be the pairing process. Could wireless earbuds be paired to the transmitter mentioned? Normally, when you pair with a phone or tablet, you use that device’s screen to select the buds you want to pair. I may be wrong, but I don’t think the transmitter has a screen or any way to pair ...

I have started “Gravity’s Rainbow” at least a half-dozen times and gotten into it as far as 250 pages and just couldn’t keep going. Maybe one day I’ll get all the way through it. I feel like I need a college-level course to do it, though.

The fringe and dice are great touches!

The day after his wife disappeared in a kayaking accident, a Claddaghduff, Ireland man answered his door to find two grim-faced Constables. We're sorry, Mr. O' Flynn, but we have some information about your dear wife, Maureen" said one of the officers. "Tell me!? Did you find her?" Michael Patrick O...

“A Good Life,” an autobiography by former Washington Post managing editor Ben Bradlee.

When I visited Seattle and Vancouver on the way to Whistler in the summer years ago, I was blown away by the vivid colors of the flowers, which were everywhere you looked. The climate is ideal for flowers. Here in NC, our summers are so hot, the flowers don’t keep their bright, saturated spring colo...

Good luck! I’ve got a couple of Mpow receivers that are rechargeable, but plugging into the cigarette lighter is probably the way to go in the car.

Gary, is there any sort of port on your current car audio system for plugging in an audio source? Is there a button anywhere that says AUX for an auxiliary audio source? If not, you may not have an easy Bluetooth option. If so, you want a Bluetooth RECEIVER that will plug into whatever kind of port ...

Great to have you back! The energy has waned around here.

He hasn’t posted in more than a year. He was a regular for years, and I enjoyed his contributions.

Sam, I like the canvas chairs on steel frame that fold into a carry bag. Back height and seat angle should be checked out. Arms with drink holders are very handy.

Sounds like a great find, Sam!

I have a couple of UE Booms. Have used them for a number of years. They put out a surprising amount of sound with decent bass to be as small as they are. The UE phone app will allow them to be used in tandem for stereo and greater area of coverage. I bought these long before the Mega models, but the...

I, too, was going to suggest looking at St. Augustine. It does well in our hot climate and is very shade tolerant.

Living in ACC country and having watched Zion play a lot of games this year, he is about as much a lock to be a great pro as any player I have seen. Zion’s combination of quickness, leaping ability and pure size is unprecedented, in my experience. The guy weighs 285 lbs and moves like a ballerina. H...

Good luck! Be very careful around electricity. Enjoy the journey. Denver has always seemed like a very cool place to live.
