DavidB

Divorced since 1981. We just couldn't live together. Even tried it after the divorce... Still can't, but we are each others' best friend. Hell, we can even argue politics. I only see her once a year though, as she lives 1300 miles away. When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.

It was AWESOME!!!! Here name is Nancy Pollack. It was probably June, 1970, & we were 15 or 16. I remember it like it was last night: We were sitting on her front porch steps, arms around each other's shoulders, just talking for about an hour or so. During a lull in the conversation, just after dark, we looked each other in the eyes &, it just HAPPENED.

Hmmm... Something I finally find sig-worthy. When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.

I hauled one of my 5 gallon containers to the station for diesel for my tractor yesterday & paid $4.24/gal. After running said tractor for 4 hours yesterday I used most of it & needed more to finish the job, so I went back today & the price was down to $3.78/gal. Regular at this station is $3.05/gal, so I'm sure I could find it for less than $3/gal (I heard it was selling for $2.89/gal just south of me).

Me too. My GF will push on my knee when it bothers her. Don't know why I do it (excess energy seems the most likely cause, either that or just a simple nervous twitch kind of thing), but I've been doing it most of my 54 years.

I was lucky enough to see the group live twice. First in 1974 touring Dark Side. They played Wish You Were Here as the opening set, took a break, then did Dark Side with the full stage production, & for an encore played Echoes for about 40 minutes. Second time was the final night of The Wall tour in 1980. Both shows I saw at the Nassau Coliseum on Long Island. RIP Richard. Your influence will be felt for generations!

Generally, when a fusable link goes, all electric is lost. Sounds like a weak battery and/or alternator. If the battery cables are corroded (white fuzzy gunk usually at the battery end) they should be replaced. DON'T just cut the old cable ends off & bolt on the TEMPORARY bolt-on replacements! No matter how tempting that may seem, they WILL corrode & that corrosion will travel into the insulation. Corrosion causes resistance, resistance causes heat. BTW, if it turns out the battery is bad, you should probably replace the alternator anyway. A weak/dying battery makes the alternator work that much harder, that much longer. If you don't replace it, don't be surprised if it fails within the next 12 months. When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.

True story: My enlistment was nearly up. We were underway. I was on duty in the engineroom with my chief when a new guy from the bridge comes down with an empty coffee cup in hand, says he needs starboard running light oil. I told him to wait here, it's in the store room aft, I'll be right back. I ran up to the galley, got the cook to put some green food coloring in the cup, then filled it with water. After making my way back to the engineroom, I told him to be careful going back up to the bridge, we don't have much left. Always wished i could have been on the bridge when he showed up with that cup of green water. When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.

What well equipped shop doesn't have a right angle drill? Mine does. Well, how about a right angle reciprocating saw? Where can I find a cup of starboard running light oil? When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.

Notice it attaches to the tank inlet... I could make you one, but personally I don't like the idea of rinsing myself "down there" with 52 degree water! When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.

Funny... I was watching a couple TV shows yesterday evening about space-time, relativity & nuclear science. One scientists described trying to find out the secrets of the atom with a particle accelerator was like, "...trying to figure out how a watch works by smashing two watches together..." & observing what falls out. Can't wait until they fire that baby up! Oh, what secrets it could reveal... When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.

We got lucky here. Only 1.25" of rain this time, for a 2.5" total. It's moving fast enough we didn't get the backlash I expected. When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.
