    What watch you're wearing?

    I am absolutely in agreement with you. I've had my Citizen Eco-Drive® Promaster Skyhawk A-T Chronograph Titanium Watch with Black Dial (Model: JY0010-50E) since 2008. It's my daily driver worn at least 5 days a week. It was a gift from my father in law who told me to wear it, not store it away...

    What watch you're wearing?

    Hey Scalpel Ninja - sorry for my incomplete post. I have a Citizen Skyhawk AT EcoDrive. It has been my daily driver for many years (can't remember when I got it). Yours looks like an updated version of mine. Is yours a Skyhawk AT?

    Dehumidifiers... ugh.

    I have a GE dehumidifier which I bought when I started working at GE in the mid-80's that is still running strong today. I am totally in agreement with what IMA SOL MAN said above (#7). The Samsung refrigerator in our house (we bought a year ago) is a piece of crap. I worked for KitchenAid...

    Fixed Blades

    Hey old4570! I suspect that when you wander off into the woods, in addition to that axe you are probably totin' a well used lever action in 45-70 government. Never give the opponent an even break.

    EBike...first ride

    I will kindly disagree with you on this. My wife's EBike and the EBikes we rode on our tour had no throttle. Either you pedaled or you didn't go. From what I can glean from searching the 'net, there is no consensus on one versus the other.

    EBike...first ride

    Hey Robocop! Glad you got to experience what an EBike can do. My wife and I did a bike tour of Prague to Vienna a few months ago. We both had EBikes (tour was thru bike manufacturer - starts with T - 4 letters). Tour was described as "rolling hills." In 5 days of riding I did 185 miles with 13K...

    Chili -- got a go-to spice/herb blend for your favorite Chili recipe?

    I started with the recipe that came with my Ham-Beach crockpot from my college days in the 1970's. I stick with chili powder, cumin, and pepper. However, I use a combo of half ground beef and half spicy sausage. I brown the meats together with onion before dumping them in the crockpot. I also...

    Weapon light discussion, (loosely) related topics welcome

    Uh, from all that I have read it's quite the opposite. Spring steel degrades from constant flexing. It has no "memory," so leaving mags loaded for a long period of time should have no negative effect on the operation of the magazine.

    What could possibly go wrong?

    No - corporations don't "pay" taxes. They are merely a conduit from the consumer who purchased their product, the cost of which contained the amount of $$$ needed to "pay" the taxes, to the government.

    Classic Movies - B&W only :-)

    Many wonderful films listed here - I need to start watching TCM more! It's a shame younger people won't watch these films. I'll add "12 O'Clock High" to the list. Gregory Peck was marvelous.

    2014 Toyota Tacoma headlights and foglights

    The lens covers on our 2005 Odyssey had become quite "fogged" up. Checked pricing for news ones and said nope. So I researched a bit and ended up buying a restoration kit by Meguiar's. It was a multi-hour Saturday afternoon project, but they came out great. The only thing I didn't like was the...

    Dog Walking Torch for The Wife?

    A question first: Does she wear some type of reflective/lighted belt/strap/vest? How about the dog? Those will alert the driver long before the torch is fired up. My favorite was my trusty Zebralight SC600. Nice center spot with plenty of spill. 18650 for longevity. I recently purchased a Fenix...

    Work wear

    Made in the USA, All American Clothing Co. (allamericanclothing.com) Or, look at gun holster makers. Many of them also make heavy duty belts for those who carry.

    Safety Razors

    I got tired of paying big $$$ for those multi-blade cartridges, so started searching for alternatives. Came across badgerandblade.com as mentioned above and some other sites. Decided to give double edge safety razors a try again. I say again because that's what was available when I first started...

    What a traffic nightmare this will be!!!

    Elf was a French oil company that sponsored Team Tyrrell for Formula 1 racing. Jackie Stewart was the number 1 driver for Tyrrell and won 3 driver's championships over 9 seasons. Terrific time as a race fan. Then it was driving talent for the most part that won. Today it's all who can spend the...
