  1. No matter how many times I try it, I just don't like ANYTHING with the Jose Cuervo name on it, including Reserva De La Familia. To me that's margarita tequila, along with Hornitos and Tres Generations.

    Clase Azul Reposado is one of my favorites, also 1942. But I think Casamigos Reposado is the best bang for the buck, has a nice carmel/vanilla flavor.

    I read this one to my wife. She said didn’t he know…. Wear them regular first day, turn them around the second day. For the third day turn them inside out and repeat. That gets you four days

    That works fine for non-athletic situations, remind her of how much a guy sweats riding a motorcycle in the dunes in just an hour, let alone for a full day. After a days ride, they usually need to be taken out back and shot, burned and buried, not worn for 2 more days.

    Good thing was my inner thighs were so red I could almost see enough to ride at night.

  3. I went to Glamis with my CR500 one time on a guys trip. Beer....check, chips.....check, riding gear.....check. Spare underwear.....uh, oh no......

    Was a 3 day weekend, on Sunday I had to go Viking style because my underwear was able to walk around by itself. At the end of the day my lower extremities were on fire from the rubbing. I borrowed some diaper rash cream from an adjacent camp to somewhat put out the flames. Almost like asking to borrow a tampon...

    Beware, some say that pair of underwear are still out there menacing duners in the still of the night.....

  4. I can't stand listening to Howard, he's such a puss now. The only thing I can listen to is his interviews from years ago. That show kinda died when Jackie left.

    I like the downloaded playlists from Spotify, I can listen to them in the Manx with no cell coverage. 

    Thinking of listening to some podcasts....never listened to one. Anyone have a good suggestion?

  5. I have had Sirius for years, every year its the same old BS, they want $350 a year, I want to pay a lot less than that. I've been paying about $75-80 a year for the last 5 years. I usually have to tell them to disconnect me, and I get passed to a "manager" and I get the better deal.

    Today was different, they wanted $99 and my credit card. I told them there was no way they would get a card and start auto billing me. I told them to look up my account and give me what I had last year for the same price or I'm disconnecting.

    Well, it's gonna be streaming for me, I'm disconnected. Hope they realize their games are gonna close them down eventually. How will I get by without the same old playlists over and over again? 🤣

  6. I'm with J Alper, to me the helmet is one of the most important things. I have an auto darkening Miller helmet with changeable lenses inside so I can clearly see what I'm trying to weld. 

    I'd skip a 120V welder and get one that does both 120 and 220, that way it's portable and can do heavier stuff when needed. The ESAB's are really cool. When I need to do heavier gauge stuff, I borrow PDM's Miller. Welds still look like chit, but that's cause I suck as welding.

  7. Go to Walmart and get an above ground one and use if for a year or so until prices come down. That will let you know if you're really going to use it enough or not.

    I just spent $750 just to find a leak in mine, so not so hopped up on pools at the moment. It is nice to look over and see the sparkling water, but I think I'd put in a huge spa before I did a pool. Most of the time you're just hanging out in it, and being able to get it warmed up in the cooler months would make it a year round kinda thing.

     

  8. Kreepy Krauly picks them up most of the time. When I see the Kreepy stuck in the same place after a few days I usually know there is a rat stuck in the suction hole. Have to get them out quick, they disintegrate if you leave them in too long and make for a pretty disgusting removal from the Kreepy.

    If you get them out within 3 days, I find they are pretty ready to go on the grill, nice and clean. I like my pool rats with salt, pepper and a little garlic.
