RE: Gutters
I made a 15 ft long pickup for my shop vacuum and just suck the leaves out every now and then.

RE: Im so excited, Walmart wants me to have their credit card!
You possibly should consider American Express. Mine gives 2% back on every purchase, no annual fee and the 2% is deposited in my account every month when it reaches $50. I don't know or care about interest charged as I always pay it off every month. I buy everything with it. The last three new vehicles I have purchased I have used the card for as much as the dealer will allow which was $5K, $5K, and $4K. Works for me.

RE: 255,000 miles......same sparkplugs.
I sure hope the F150 doesn't have aluminum heads when you finally get ready to pull the plugs.

RE: This would have saved me a lot of time
I was in school at the change from "old" to "New" math so I kind of learned both ways.
One of the stranger outcomes is I add a numbers left to right in most cases, Same as I read them.. Way easier.
I also do some fancy tricks that make many things easier.. Like to multiply by nine, Multiply by 10 and subtract one.
Let's see. 2 x 9 = 18 (2 x 10 = 20 -1 = 19 Wrong!)
3 x 9 = 27 (3 x 10 = 30 -1 = 29 Wrong)
Now your getting me worried about any of your technical replies. :@
I assume you meant to multiply the original number by 10 and subtract the original number. :B
When I read his trick and tried it, my first thought was "that new math" must be really different.

RE: Gold and/or Silver?
Money will double in 12 years at 6% return(Rule of 72s). From 1980 when gold was about $750 till late 2012 when it was around $1850 is about 32 years. If you had earned about 6% on the $750 and reinvested it, it would have doubled about twice and would be worth about $3000, I think.

RE: Miter saw blade suggestions (12")
If you leave the blade guard on the tablesaw 1/4 inch or 1 inch projection, it don't matter too much.

RE: how to defeat ticks
I don't know about ticks, but I had yard chickens for several years and they got rid of the Japanese Beatle problem.

RE: Cruise ship nightmare
Don't RV anymore, but I have been on nine cruises and we are planning the tenth. I wasn't worried about that asteroid that came by the other day.

RE: Lexmark printers
105XL is a black cartridge. I don't know if your printer is color, but if you only print black for text, then I would buy a new Brother laser printer for about $60. Generic refills for this laser printer are about $15 on Amazon and last forever. I got tired of the ink jet cartridge ripoff and that is the route I went.

RE: Spit shine boots: what am I doing wrong...?
When I was in Korea in 1957, the local shoeshine boys would use a burn in technique. They coated the toe with wax polish and lit it and allowed it to burn awhile. Then they rubbed it out with a finger and wet cloth. One guy I heard of had his toes blistered cause he didn't take his boots off.

RE: Its about time
Nothing annoys me more than some one sitting in the fast lane doing the speed limit when they could move over.
What should she have done? Signal, slow down and move to the right, the cop would have to slow down too.
I think some of those folks that ride the left lane at the legal speed limit feel it is their calling in life to control other folks speed.

RE: Possible 2 replace house bathtub with tile walk in shower?
You mentioned tiled. Myself, I would not fabricate a tiled shower. I would use a high quality fiberglass unit.
