Thursday hello one & all. RollEyes


Hope power is restored soon corey, generator is a very wise decision. Think

+1 God bless the linemen that get it working again.

We occasionally lose power for a few hours, in twent+ years once for three days. The long term loss was a PITA and cost about $700, much less than the price of an adequate generator not to mention the storage space and maintenance requirements for a generator.

I should point out we have a gas kitchen stove, fireplace and water heaters for a loss in winter and my truck has a 120V AC outlet that can run the coffee grinder, vital to survival.

Iffn I lived anywhere near hurricane or tornado alley a generator would be high on my list of wants. About the only outage we have had in many years is if someone hits a pole. (knock on wood)

I’ve got a John Deere generator with a 13 hp Honda engine as part of my hurricane/earthquake kit. Agricultural grade beast. I got it 2004 when we got hit by four hurricanes in like six weeks.

Might add a solar generator.

Will it be a Late Show 500 winner?
A Breakfast Bruiser crossing the threshold?
Or, will it meander to noon time?

Tune in to find out.

On the dogwalk this morning, I came up with a potential 500 title that amused myself enough to generate a small smile. Then again, funny to me only strikes a chord with 1.8% of the masses.

Got to go cut the lawn.

You better be happy about that.
Last month's power bill was $560 (73 and 72F) and water, including for the lawn is about $170/month unless we stary getting regular rain 2-3 days/week.

8-Track was on, but I was posting elsewhere and missed out on one of us getting to 500?
Anyone want to shoot for it with or without me. I just hate old, tired 500 threads... Brick wall
