"Either way without the GRANDPAS or pioneers as I like to say You, DHF, or Gypsy..."

WHOA!! Bless yore pea-pickin' heart, but I have TWO unique crowns here:

1. I am the oldest sumbitch here
2. I have failed for a half-century at growing a single plant, and I have just barely learned some of the terms used by alla these scientists. <-- TINS

I'm just an old sojer, retired engineer, author. I dunno squat.
You get one crown for being the oldest!

Second crown is questionable because I seriously doubt that you have failed for 50 years! Especially since you’re an engineer which in my mind means more intelligent than most.

Cheers

Did anyone ever try Lude's (Qualudes) - back in the 70's/80'? - 714's - the yellowish ones - made ya feel like a drunk Rubber Man - total muscle relaxer - if so you might be able to relate to what Leanardo Di Caprio is talking about - when he had to act the part of someone on Lude's - in the movie The Wolf of Wall Street -

NOPE
Cant beat a honda using gas especially since you will def use it more,
Its not like in NY you have a lot of weather to contend with .
Shave off some of your gold or sprinkle some bitcoin money FFS!
Check out generac
If each dollar counts I understand ,but if not do it so its less on you
8kw generac propane ,Get a big ass propane tank which could be used for heat.
Automatic transfer is a beautiful thing
A heater option for the generator in it for your cold temps.
Swede does not have to do nothing.
Let’s not forget that maintenance is cut by 90% if you only run propane and never put todays trash gas in said gen💯

I was looking at the TT girls today and I’m starting to notice a little bit of Foxtail. My Tricom have a little bit of clear, mostly cloudy and a fair amount of Amber so I think I’m going to take them out tomorrow and at least the Bone, all the families and all the big sugar leaves and then make a decision on whether to cut
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I might as well be reading this one below:

When frequency balancing interstitials, remember the reference frames: "...within a frame of reference that rotates with respect to an inertial frame. In a reference frame with clockwise rotation, the force acts to the left of the motion of the object." <-- Hadda memorize that. Coriolis Force: Fc= -2m(pi times v)

He even gave a "Bud of the Month Club" picture. I understood every word except:

TT girls <-- Definitely sounds sexy... like shuffledance girls

Foxtail <-- We are not clear of the sexy shuffledancing TT girls with their long hair yet, I see

Tricom <-- Code for weather update: "little bit of clear, mostly cloudy..."

Bone <-- YIKES!

Grasshopper... ask around. There are folks here who've known me for years. Do not pile up a manure mountain and climb on it to orate about that which you are unfamiliar. <-- It is the one thing I do not tolerate.

I live in a double-sekrit place in Floriduh called the Acreage. Do not try to find it on the Google Earth map, even though it is near Ft. Lauderdale. My secret name is Walt C. Snedeker, but don't let that get around, because then people could even find my house.

MORE than 50 years ago, kid, I first tried marijuana. Back then, it was called a nickel bag. In the bag was what I now recognize as a whole bud. Stem, seeds, yada.

SIDE NOTE TO HELP YOU "CONCEIVE " -- In ten years, I scored one nickel bag and went to three parties. That is my background. I never saw weed used in the military. I would go years without any weed.

BACK TO SPANKIES: Several times when I got a seed, I would go out in the woods and plant it. To give you a time hack, this was when we lived in upstate New York: Scooter was in kindergarten. He is now a semi-retired Board Certified doctor (60 years old -- do the math). Nothing grew.

I got a seed to grow here in Floriduh. My neighborhood is rural enough that there is a rifle range in my back yard. The seed I got to grow sprouted the most pitiful, crippled, miserable plant conceivable. I took a picture of it, and entered it into the "Bud Of The Month" contest. Someone here may even have it.

And it got eaten, and the roots dug up and eaten... the next day.

Now do you believe that this engineer/author/pilot/veteran/great grampa when he tells the whole fucking world that in LONGER than 50 years, he's never successfully grown a plant?

YES _______________

Now, as I enter the Springtime of my senility, we can be best friends if you just get an e-book copy of (here comes a dare) a novel that the Deputy Director for Counterintelligence and Security Countermeasures in the Pentagon wrote that he "loved the Pacific battle scenes on, over, and under the water". It no longer is available in hardcopy (wuflu shut down the publisher who had my plates).

They put it on Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10456825-the-bat-and-balloon-war----an-alternate-history-of-wwii

Good Morning All (OF's):

Wishing each and every one of you, a pleasant morning, wonderful day, and outstanding evening.
I am currently pretty tied up with projects and work, so wanted to start with a daily check in hello.
Today's Tuesday. The week cruises on and the work week continues. One day closer to a weekend!

See you all tomorrow (again)! (y):)

Morning gang. Two day work week. Yeah boy.
Old man at work got hurt yesterday. His nickname is Tick. He’s an old grease monkey. A bit addled in the brain if you know what I mean. Someone called me yesterday and said he let a rear axle assembly out of a semi truck fall on him. All I know is they took him via ambulance and he’s hurt bad but not life threatening.
We all try to look out for tick cuz he just don’t have good sense. Last week we caught him grinding without eye protection. He’s only got one good eye. The other is a prosthetic.

Mostly cloudy with some sprinkles starting at 38F and predicted to reach 48F. Probably a good time to turn off and drain the sprinkler system and outside water.

I forgot to add vinegar to the water when I soaked my beans for the bean soup, and you can sure tell the difference. With a six-pound batch, it's going to be noisy here for a while.

The good news is that our Ford EV is ready for pickup, and it wasn't the battery.

I'm thinking that people who agitate and fight bulls for a living are architects of their own bad karma.
Yeah - getting into the ring with an angry beast that weighs a ton or more - who sports great big sharp horns - that could butt rape you - or even kill ya - is sheer lunacy - in my book - and any Matador that gets spiked - surely deserves it -
