  1. 4-Prongs makes it a manure fork. Probably still works in this case.
  2. So, I keep Flightradar24 up on one of my monitors all the time. I glanced over and saw that 2 planes were forming one blob directly over my hometown. I pulled up the data and saw that one was at 38,000 ft and the other at 36,000 ft. It appeared that their paths had to cross within less than 2 miles. By the time I got out of my office and looked to the west they were already separated by a good margin. @Bobby_Batronic@DaysOff or any of the Surly pilot mafia, was that closer than normal or common as hell?
  3. Guys! Guys! They're even whiter now!
  4. When I had a patella tendon repair for a torn ACL back in the 70 s, all of the surgeons tools were Craftsman. I was groggy but alert enough to see he raided my toolbox.
  5. Golf only for this cart but we do play almost year round. A buddy has a new EzeGo with factory lithium batteries and I can't tell any difference when it's cold. I suppose if you are going more than 4 hours or so it could be a factor.
  6. Yeah, I don't see livers and hearts on his list of choices. Tragic oversight.
  7. I wanted to play but this post stole all of my thunder. I'm like Jimmy because a song that hits me as perfect changes from day to day but these two never change for me.
  8. If it's a Ford product, there is a vent cannister that can get plugged with dust and make the fill process cycle off. Other makes likely have the same thing for EPA reasons. My mechanic charges me $20 to blow that out and then everything works as it should for a year or so. My gravel roads are very dusty so ymmv.
  9. Thanks for the reply. Zero maintenance is a big plus in my book. I have been quoted $1750 and my old batteries/charger with one day turnaround. A new charger and charge meter is included. I was told by another cart firm that isn't currently doing the swaps to be sure that the battery pack is rated to at least 80 amp/hours. They did a few early on and had poor results with less than that. My guy tells me that his pack will be 100 amp hours so I should be good to go. I have been using my 92 ClubCar gasser since last spring. It's reliable as hell but my country club friends look down their noses at me. Can't have that.
  10. Have any of you done a lithium battery swap? My 2008 Yamaha 48v took a power surge and fried the charger. My understanding is that the swap uses a different charger so I figured to change it all and get batteries that would last 10-15 years in the bargain. Any thoughts?
  11. Trokar? I hardly know her.
  12. Home schooled, no doubt. Hard to imagine what other bullshit she is teaching them if she can fuck up something that easy.
  13. I broke my CR cherry this evening. I'm not really sure how to feel about that. Strange times indeed.
  14. Marshall objected to both. My guess is that trump or giuliani gave him the same call that tuberville got. He's the most dangerous kind of schlub in that he only does as he's told. He can't tell right from wrong on his own. Kansas came close to voting in the challenger but she made an unfortunate gun comment and scuttled her chances. Marshall will be heard from again and it won't be good news.
  15. Jimmy, could we please, please, please add Roger Marshall to this list? I know he's new and all but I'm sure we've seen his best already. He's a born fucking follower without a single original thought. He's just waiting around to get marching orders from somebody.
  16. This is why I visit this thread often. This is good advice for anybody but something I really needed to see this week. Thank you
  17. I've had the Ryobi 40v chainsaw from Home Depot for a couple years now. Very handy and as powerful as I need. I have cut hedge up to 10" dia and it powers right through it. Lots of torque. I get about an hour with the 4ah batteries but that is usually all that my old ass wants to endure anyway. Same battery powers my string trimmer, blower and hedge trimmer. The only thing that looks weak is the plastic chain tension setup. I went ahead and bought replacement parts JIC but it has held up so far.
  18. Motherfucker!
  19. Right in the feeler. Merry Christmas, assholes.
  20. Ass is a little flat for my taste, butt wood.
  21. This shit makes me ragey. Haven't they ever heard of Vice-Grips?
  22. Bubble wrap, dude
  23. Peacemaker, perhaps? I shoulda refreshed before responding. I see @RPM beat me to it.
  24. https://www.mlb.com/news/negro-leagues-given-major-league-status-for-baseball-records-stats Major League Baseball has long celebrated the legacy of the Negro Leagues. But for the first time, MLB is officially recognizing that the quality of the segregation-era circuits was comparable to its own product from that time period. Addressing what MLB described as a “long overdue recognition,” Commissioner Rob Manfred on Wednesday bestowed Major League status upon seven professional Negro Leagues that operated between 1920 and 1948. The decision means that the approximately 3,400 players of the Negro Leagues during this time period are officially considered Major Leaguers, with their stats and records becoming a part of Major League history. It's about time. It probably deserves it's own thread.
  25. My dad was a gunsmith and specialized at sporterizing military rifles of all kinds. I have coffee cans full of triggers, safeties, barrel bands and whathaveyou that were removed in the process. I have a couple dozen stocks and hand guards leftover. Let me now if you are looking for anything.
