    Dutch Police not messing about.

    I suspect this will be just like any other new police initiative. They'll go strong at it for a few months, then just let it go. Meanwhile the money spent on the equipment will languish in a garage somewhere until it's forgotten about. In a few years, they'll find it in the back corner, with...

    Dutch Police not messing about.

    Apparently the government there has solved all the other problems in the country and can now move onto trivial s*it.

    A great man died today. Mojo Nixon has gone to that great amusement park in the sky.

    Best Rock Ever? Nominations, No Air Supply!

    I can't say that I know a song by either one.

    Dual Battery Balancer circuit - experiences!

    If the PCB inside that box is conformal coated be aware, that the coating is highly flammable even after it's set and will continue to burn after voltage is removed. Conformal Coating is used to keep moisture away from the circuits, but if something overheats on the board it quickly catches...

    Oops, I need to remove that. I cashed it out the other day.

    If I can get the time to do this, I'll bring the trailer out and cook. Would you guys want to start in the morning or early afternoon? If it's morning obviously breakfast foods. But if it's lunch what would you guys like to eat? Don't worry about what's actually on our menu, I can make just...

    That's just a random picture of a tow dolly I found. I've never seen one with suspension. Keep in mind, that in a tow dolly, the entire weight of the vehicle is not on the dolly as you're towing it from the front wheels. They didn't say their dolly couldn't handle the Jimmy, they said my...

    Abandoned PA Turnpike Tunnel Ride Planning Thread

    I'm not a fan of Uhaul. I tried to rent a tow dolly to move a 2000 GMC Jimmy to the shop towing it with my Sierra. They wouldn't rent one to me because they claimed my truck wasn't strong enough to tow a 5000lb vehicle.

    I still want to do this, but I think you guys know I've been pretty busy the last 11 months. I'll try to get something settled for spring. I'll bring the trailer along we can eat before we head out.

    Fulfilling a dream

    I didn't see no Ebikes riding in today. :) I did see a mennonite riding by on one though. Our third outing and our take was more than the last, so we're slowly getting there. Much of the issue is miscommunication with people that are helping to promote us on social media. In some cases...

    Fulfilling a dream

    A dairy farmer and I discussed this one night. Honestly, I think whole milk is best when it's served right above the freezing point. I found that the Amish really enjoy chocolate milk that comes from the brown cows. :) One guy I know carries chocolate mix with him and his own milk in pint...

    High hopes but let down when delivered.

    I love a good burger, I've had Bison, Ostrich, and many other types of beef that they claim make good burgers. All of them were pretty good compared to one I had last year in a local place that everyone in the area thinks is really good food. I got a $17 burger, and was dry, bland and...

Menu for the day is Wings, italian & buffalo w blue cheese and celery, sauasage sammiches with locally made smoked cheedar...

    Fulfilling a dream

    I was unaware of that, and sadly the SC movement has taken a hold among the Amish. I had one young man asking me about it last year, and I told him that it has no footing in court. Amos' attorney should have told him that. The Amish are stubborn, getting them to do what they need to do in...

    Fulfilling a dream

    That's really what it's all about, and that's their belief. But that's also what some of the local news was saying was "sovereign citizen tactics". The media here is rather bi-polar when it comes to the Amish. Everyone loves the amish when they're being exploited as tourist attractions but...

    Fulfilling a dream

    I know you're probably joking, but no. Many of the dairy farms have the "family" cow, that gets milked just for the family. They also have a nursery cow that sits in the pen with the calves and feeds them. Non-dairy farms many times keep one cow on the farm just to feed the family. I know of...
