RE: Irish Spring Soap as Mouse Deterrant
:)
Reminds me of the time a mouse nibble on a bar of Ivory soap. It's droppings all around the soap went from black to grey to white.

RE: Cancer!
A friend passed away last Winter aged 69. He had retired at 55. Got to teach the grandkids how to swim, ride a bike, spoil them rotten.
Life is to short.

RE: Irish Spring Soap as Mouse Deterrant
It was suppose to be good to keep deer away from fruit trees. A few years ago I hung a few in mesh bags. They never touched the soap but the trees got chewed real good. The wolves eventually thinned out the herd.
Also...
As a test I set some mouse traps on top of Bounce sheets. Eventually every trap had a dead mouse in it.
From over 40 years of experimenting at the cottage the only things that work are traps and poison.
DEET for bugs.

This is getting serious...
They’ve been passing over in large flocks every half hour or so.

Real Snowbirds
Saw and heard the first flight of Canada Geese heading south.
I think it’s a little early, maybe an early warning.
We are 85 miles north of Ottawa.
Could be time to kick the tires and check fluid levels.

RE: Should I buy??
Put it all in perspective...
An overseas vacation for two weeks will cost you more.
If you get five years out of it then sell it for half what it cost you, did you lose money?

RE: NFL concussions.....Back to the 1930's ?
If players didn’t wear suits of armour like they do today maybe they wouldn’t use their body as battening ram.

RE: What more is there to say?
Without meaning to start an argument...
I’ve come to mistrust much of what I read in the press when it comes to numbers and statistics.
One article I read today says if I eat all the foods that will give me a few extra years l could live to be 5000.

I can tell Summer’s over...
My box of band aids is almost empty.
We spend the Summer at the cottage, there is always something to fix or replace.
It’s been a busy one.

RE: Tesla S w/TrailManor
If it runs on batteries it's either a toy or a golf cart.
Chances are you great grandfather said something similar when he saw the first car.

RE: McD's app and kiosk
I know McD's is not the best paying job in the usa but when they replace workers with computers I stop shopping there. That simple.
Same with self check-outs. go to all self and I'm gone.
I remember way back when...
Every large business had need of receptionist, typists, secretaries, mail clerks.
All of these offered great openings for advancement.
All gone now, mostly replaced by computers.
Some of the best corporate leaders came from the lowest ranks.
Politicians keep repeating ‘jobs, jobs, jobs’
What can you do?

RE: Electric scooter for RVs?
I have a wheelbarrow with two wheels, it’s the most unstable thing I have ever used or never use. It won’t lean into corners and tends to tip when going over uneven ground.

RE: phone telescope
First question to ask...
What do you do with your pictures, how do you show them?
I have thousands of pics stored away on DVDs and hard drives, never to be looked at again.
I now use my iPod as a camera and keep the best ones for showing on my iPad.
They all show up crystal clear arranged in proper folders. Always handy.

RE: My Computer Doesn't "See" External Hard Drives
My HP laptop is very slow in showing external hard drives. Whatever it has to do depends on how large and full the drive is. I usualy walk away for a minute or two.
