Almost there…

A small cordless drill with a torque setting plus a driver set. A short flexible bit holder for the tight spots.

Drop the torque setting all the way down then use the drill for most of the work. Then finish tightening with a reacheting screwdriver.

How about the Citric Acid Cycle then?

I probably should work on getting the bush type plant mutant into the giant pumpkin germplasm again.

The first tests were had a 400lb pumpkin into a 8’x8’ plot. They split and cracked however.

In my area the self checkout systems at the grocery store often fritz out an don’t register the item. This is even after they beep. It’s truly wonderful. I consistently get 50% or more of the items in my cart for free. Nothing they can do to me either. They have me on video scanning every item. If their system buggers up the total it’s on them.

If they want somebody to catch computer errors then there’s a thing called “pay a employee.”

During the last housing bubble, you could rent the same place for less than 1/2 the cost of buying it. Renting and investing made more sense then.

Currently buying a house is overpriced but rent is even more so.

The best financial decision right now is to live with your parents your entire life. If you don’t have a parent you can stay with, then a tent and cardboard boxes in the park it is.

Which of course I haven’t received yet.

They keep promising it will be delivered next week or so for the past 5 years.

Some varieties of apples blooms are frost sensitive. Others can shrug off a frost and not really care. It’s a genetic difference in the cultivars.

So if you see a big ass fan in the orchard, it’s because the grower wanted to push a variety that is not well adapted to the local environment.

A sudden freeze will not kill the vines. Grapes are extremely tough. It can hurt the flower buds though. A severe enough freeze can cut the yield.

For wine grapes less fruit in the bunches = lower quality wine.

It’s an old cheap method.

We have much better ways of protecting crops from frost including reusable netting/row covers with supplemental heat from electric heaters. However they cost more so…

Yep. It wasn’t cheap or easy back when they had the monopoly.

That’s back when ISP’s offered personal webpage hosting as part of your service. I setup my first webpage on my dialup ISP’s server. Family photos and such before the social media things got going.

I for many years after that for large file transfers. Just set up a landing index page and a folder for the file in FTP to activate it. Then share the http address to file.

Figure 3’s label.

“Chlorine atoms are shown in red.” got me.

A rancid unholy stench from the depths of hell wafts imin from the outside as the door opens. Your are temporarily blinded as tears come to your eyes.

“Hello,Uncle Mike.”

I always tell people that a bonus is imaginary and should never be considered as part of a job offer.

If you do acheive a partial amount one year the next year the “calculations” to get one will change to fuck you over.

Not usually in my experience. Almost all target shooting is on relatively flat ranges. Especially not for ranges that short.

For those that don’t know, when firing down the slope the effect of gravity decreases the bullets velocity loss. So the bullet transverses the distance in less time and drops less over a given distance.

When firing up a slope the bullet loses velocity due to gravity. So it drops more due to the extra time it takes for the bullet to transverse the distance.

If you have a regular 30.06 bullet with a rifle sighted in at 200 yards, it will hit around 5" lower than you aim at 250 yards depending on the gun and conditions.

If you have it sighted in at 300 yards and aim for center mass (heart) the bullet will hit around 5" above where they are aiming.

In both conditions the bullet hits the neck area.

Corn smut is better.

Rent vs mortgage - gotta put a caveat on that one.

Renting = landlord gets all the money but has to maintain the property.

Mortgage - bank gets all the money and you get a partial refund if you sell. You pay for the upkeep. A mortgage is not really an “investment”, you usually lose money on the deal if you live there. It’s cheap rent from the bank.

It basic math to see which one is better long term. Usually the mortgage wins because of of the partial return. However if you can’t do the upkeep yourself, renting is often a better financial decision.

There have been times when renting was the smarter financial decision. Like the housing bubble in 2003-2007. You could rent places for 1/2 what it would cost to buy them per month.

My wife and I created a funny named joint e-mail account when we were engaged for all the wedding stuff (we got married in '01). Over time it sort of morphed into the default address for all bills, schools, family, etc. Anything that both of us should be aware of.

The username has since became the default for most of our joint online accounts as well. It’s pretty close to the perfect username. It is distinct, short and easy to remember. Best of all it’s always available.

Depends on where it’s located.

In some areas with very active fire suppression, they allowed massive buildup of material to burn. This is what happened to Yellowstone and a bunch of national forest around the west and into Canada.

In other areas drought is causing more frequent and hotter burns. This is what is is happening in the Southwest now with the mega-drought.
