[OT] Speaking of gasoline..
I truly hate those mother****ers.
I spill a lot more gasoline when I use those CARB cans. They are impossible to use while some CARB faggots masturbate together and congratulate each other. i On 2012-10-27, Spehro Pefhany wrote: http://lfb.org/today/how-government-...d-the-gas-can/ Best regards, Spehro Pefhany |

Lots of components to repair tools & equipment that has been in storage for over 10 years. I usually wait till I have no choice but to leave the house, then make as many stops as I can while I'm out. There have been months that I drove a total of 60 miles, for two trips to get groceries. I can't find all of what I can eat at any one store, so it takes multiple stops. |

The last beer I had was in 1973. Those pin printers are now worth a small fortune, they are the only thing to do multi-part forms. I had a friend that had a big Epson that did everything for his business multi-part forms and when it would crap out the local Epson repair center couldn't find the problem because it would always work fine on the test bench. My buddy realized that all he had to do was take the printer for a ride when it pooped and put it back to work. |

Refrig cans can be converted to small high pressure cans of air
that you charge up on the tank and tote it to the place you need it. Not hard to do. They are rated for more pressure than you can pump in.

Walmart has specials on some things so I get those there. A small chain called Sweetbay marks down meat first thing, every morning, so I check to see what they have when I'm in the area. It's usually the smallest packages that didn't sell for a couple days and is often half price. They just don't want it in the store, and it's under 1% of the total meat they sell in a normal day. I buy some at Sam's Club, and Walmart. The other stores in the area are Publix, Winn-Dixie, Save-A-Lot and Auldi's. I find some name brand things at Dollar Tree like day old bread & instant mashed potatoes. I use the potatoes in soup, and to stiffen stew. I almost never go into town with a single task in mind. I stuff as many stops as possible into the trips to save gas. The round trip is as circular as possible to save gas, too. No zigzagging around, wasting time and gas.

I go grocery shopping about 5:30 in the morning, during the summer. I get home around 8:00 to 8:30. |

That said , I read a very interesting article recently about reloading Berdan primed cases . Hardest part is decapping , and there is more than one way to do that . Hydraulic pressure or a hook type tool , but I'm not so sure about running those steel cases into a resizing die . -- Snag Useta have a couple of SKS's . |

They're light enough to hang on your belt for climbing on ladders if you don't have a long hose. 3/8" poly hose is just great for those. Light and pliable in the cold.

I take a large fender washer that fits inside the POS spout collar. Bore the center out to fit a short piece of EMT. Braze the two together. Now attach a section of large fuel line to the new nipple. Now you have the pour side. For a vent I plastic weld a vacuum nipple into a hole on the top corner. Use a vacuum cap to seal it when not in use. -- Steve W. |

I suspect the people who need to approve such
ammendment, are the people who are giving us trouble. Not likely to happen. Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org .. "J. Clarke" wrote in message in.local... Really, we need a Constitutional Amendment that abolishes the practice of non-legislated regulation outright and restricts the size of the US Code and the Code of Federal Regulations. If they continue to grow without limit they are going to bury us. |

For the last decade or so, refrigerant cans have
been required to have one way valves. You can draw refrigerant out, but can't pump it back in. Those old freon to air tank kits from the auto parts, no longer work. Christopher A.

We hear that you drive like Mario Andretti and tell your passenger: In a 15 year old Dodge pickup that needs more repairs than it's worth? More like, "Get out & push, and don't step in the power steering fluid." I leave four old printers in the passnger's side so people don't ask for rides. "Hold my beer and watch THIS!" The last beer I had was in 1973. Those pin printers are now worth a small fortune, they are the only thing to do multi-part forms. I had a friend that had a big Epson that did everything for his business multi-part forms and when it would crap out the local Epson repair center couldn't find the problem because it would always work fine on the test bench. My buddy realized that all he had to do was take the printer for a ride when it pooped and put it back to work. Hey if they are worth money we have a NEW in the box unit at the fire station. Believe it's an Epson. Came in a package deal with one of our OLD Defib units. Was supposed to be used to print out reports when you used the machine. I think it may have been out of the box once just to demonstrate how to hook it up. Guess I'll have to dig it out and wipe the dust off the box.... -- Steve W. |

You are the exception that proves the rule then... Actually, I win those type auctions fairly often. One bid & walk away. If I win, I win. If not, the item will be relisted that way again. Things like M3 hex brass spacers for less than the brass would cost me. |
