    Open apology to CPF members

    I have a vague understanding how my computer works, but I trust the engineers that it will work when I turn it on. Ditto on my software. I can't see it doing its work in the small box on my desk, but I see the results, so I will trust science on this one, and many others. If we don't trust...

    Question: For what purpose do you use your high lumen output lights?

    Not crazy high lumens ( not even sure how many I use), but to check for critters that want to eat my critters at night. ie cougars and bear. Both are very prevelant in my area. and one of my critters is black with a tiny bit of white and brown, so he is hard to find when I let him in the yard at...

    Cheapest way to have emergency lighting? Im talking fuel vs battery ?

    I find if you also crumple up some tinfoil and pu that in the jarr you can trap more sunlight as it just bounces around inside the ball and seems to help when you open it back up.

    Things I've learned the hard way . . .(Part 2)

    Social Media is a toxic place and generally a waste of time and a source of stress. 159 days clean, and feeling much better. Cold Turkey

    Cars, Man

    Our neighbour has one in his garage. Very nice car and he's looking at selling it, so I may take a look at it. My wife's great aunt had one she bought new and had promised to my wife, but of course a conman managed to talk her into selling it for next to nothing

    Cars, Man

    I've got a 992, so when I open the boot, I can't see a darn thing except 2 caps for liquid refills. Cars ( or trucks) don't need to be expensive to enjoy. Well I guess expensive is a fluid term. Mini 3dr and Toyota Gr86's are great cars for the price point. May not have the same 0-60, or top...

    Where did all the oldtimers go.

    I guess I am getting close to being one of the "old timers". I find that with many forums, they go in cycles. Fast past at the beginning then phases out. I still check in occassionally. Currently back on the hunt for 1 or 2 lights. So may be back here more often for a while. More of a lurker...

    McGizmo Standing wave of Sapphire 25's , GS and now High CRI

    I've had my Sapphire in my pocket for many many years, until tuesday of this week. Seems it fell out somewhere in my travels. I will give it another day to show up, then will have to order a new one. Worked flawlessly all those years. I am stumped as to where it may have gotten lost as it was...

    Norland vs. Nail Polish

    Everyone of of my Spy's has trit tubes and all I ever used was simple white craft glue. It dries clear enough and if one ever need replacing I just use an eyedropper, one drop of water, let it sit an hour and then a toothpick to remove the old one. I use them in the rain and have never had one...

    Bose Soundwear

    Have you actually tried and heard the soundwear? I’ve heard people walking with earbuds so loud it is annoying 80 feet away. Others I’ve heard holding their phone in their hand listening to music and it’s barely audible a few feet away.

    Bose Soundwear

    My morning walks involve interactions with traffic. Ear phone/headphones eliminate surrounding sounds. I also dint live alone so I can still hear people in my home if needed, at my office I can hear staff if they entire my office to ask questions or put a phone call through to me, or while I’m...

    Bose Soundwear

    Just wondering if anyone has one of these and how you like them? Decades ago I had a BonePhone and liked it even though it was only Am/Fm.
