1/2 past the Year, July Coffee is here

Took the better-half to the Berlin Clinic this morn. Her eyes were swelling. They think she had an allergic reaction to something. They gave her antihistamine eye drops and prednazone.   

Brats and baked beans for lunch.

If i was a betting man, that is where i'd bet.

But i rather come up with things i can't see him doing


Yeah...like test drive a Prius ...or go see " 50 Shades of Gray "   buying Aluminum/ Teflon ware

Hey! Del!

Maybe you should quit on photobucket, they seem to have quit on you.

Afternoon all.

Still 105 in California.  I'm tired of it.   We're talking about going to the coast this weekend, where the weather is supposed to be 65.  We'll see how that pans out.

Ordered new tires for The Eggplant today.  $460 later, and I'll have 2 new tires on Wednesday.    These suckers are expensive!  But, these particular tires are warrantied to 55,000 miles, which means I'll probably replace the truck before the tires.  Then again, maybe I'll take the truck to 500,000 miles.  Ya' never know until you try, i guess.

TK, that's some pricey tires! I get all four on most of my vehicles for that. No 55,000 warranty, either. Mail route, I get 10-15,000 at best, but probably 30,000+ on the others(Unless I get un-repairable sidewall thorn leaks on the trucks).

Summer finally settled in here, forecast mid-upper 90's all week, "heat index" well into the 100s. Dragged the 2 "window shakers" out of storage, blew off the dust with an air hose, stuck them in the windows, and now enjoying nice cool air. One 9,000 and one 10,500 BTU units do a decent job in this 1920's house-unless you're doing a lot of cooking, canning, etc.

Well I'm infamous again, brother was checking on deer permits today and found this, watch the slide show.

Well, that was rather anti-climatic and not nearly as exciting as some of the guesses

I was dissappointed also

Here is three winners

Uh huh!








Third day without rain - might get a little work done. Not suppose too, but i am bored as heck sitting watching cooking shows.

Slim, why couldn't i get 3 separate quotes on that post?

[Good Troy]

News flash....It is hot today with scattered thunder storms in the afternoon...
Copy and paste for tomorrow...

Well, they're A) truck tires and B) off-road tires.  The same model tire for my mom's 2010 Explorer would be $650 for a warrantied set of 4.  But since I'm going to be spending the rest of the summer driving up roads covered in sharp rocks, i figure a good tire with a warranty might be good.  It was only $10/tire for the warranty.


Weather is headed for 100 again today.  Yay...

I hate tire warranties, and warranties in general. I always seem to develop a problem that wasn't covered, even though I paid the extra money to get it. Bought tires, and got a nail in the sidewall. Not covered. I can get a good used tire for the cost of some warranties. Bought a nice flatscreen tv for Christmas. The boys got in a flyswatter fight, cracked the glass. Not covered, and no replacement screen was available. But, I will flat wear out a Harbor Freight genny warranty. We use our genny 10-12 hours daily. As long as it blows up within the 2 years, we're good for a new one.

Back in the hospital again- this is no longer any fun

[Silver Creek Slim]

Morning y'all.
Coffee and iced tea are ready.

Back in the hospital again- this is no longer any fun

I'm praying for you, pard.

'Tis 69 and raining. "Humid. Cloudy with periods of showers and thunderstorms in the morning  then partly sunny with a chance of showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon. Patchy fog in the morning. Some thunderstorms may produce heavy rainfall in the morning. Highs in the upper 80s. Southwest wind 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 90 percent."

Hot today, with chance of thunderstorms.  Day of meetings at work, and tomorrow is a day off.   

[The Trinity Kid]

Afternoon all. 

Still 100 degrees, and I still don't like the heat. 

I'm still trying to decide if I want to go to a concert tonight.  On the one hand, I don't get to do these thing very often.  But on the other, it's going to cost almost $30 in gas and $30 for the ticket...  I just bought tires...   I don't think I'm going.
