    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    No to poo poo your new safe but this is the exact reason my locksmith friend told me to never buy an electronic safe.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Okay... a dumb question. In seeing photos on here over the years I've often wondered, do you have to drive in reverse to use the snow blower? Seems obvious since its on the back, but also seems very inconvenient to have to try and look backward the entire time your removing snow. Especially...

    Did I Break 4WD on my BX?

    For a starting point .... I had a leak in my front right axel. Just to get that fixed was about $1,000.00. o_O. Thought about trying to fix it myself but looked like a pretty painful process. I would think that operating it in 2WD would be fine until you can afford to fix it but I would...

    Sometimes you just have to say it...

    This fictitious person you mention does not exist. The reality is that they are all in just different beds and we just pick the bed we dislike the least.

    Sometimes you just have to say it...

    Murder is probably not the answer, but neither is non-prosecution. Somewhere in the middle would be nice. And it's not the store usually, it's the DA. If a DA refuses to do his job he needs to be removed from office--like they do in Florida. DAs cannot simply say "we are not prosecuting...

    Getting ready to retire, what did you treat yourself with?

    All this retirement talk has me a bit jealous. ;)

    The guilty party (that turned the stray feral into a house cat) came home to watch the packers game with me.

    Sometimes you just have to say it...

    This is exactly my point above. My only question is is this out of necessity or greed. The reason I ask is EVERYWHERE I go has a help wanted sign or billboard out front.

    Sometimes you just have to say it...

    I have mixed feelings about this. They do this at costco as well. I do feel a bit like they are questioning my integrity. Pure and simple this is a huge cost saver, as it is taking jobs away from folks (assuming anyone wants to work anymore-which may be what started all of this). If you...

    To all my Brothers and Sisters

    Well said @skeets ! Got me thinking and found an old photo of me and my (still) wife over 31 years ago (I was 23) when I was in USMC OCS in Quantico, VA.

    That robbery......

    Definitely something strange going on and we will never know. Not sure I really care, other than NBC don't say anything if you have to tell a lie.

    Household Appliance Maintenance: Share Your Successes and Failures

    I have had success with a dryer heating element, a couple of ice makers and a 55 and 75 inch Samsung TV--that break just as easy. These new TVs are surprisingly easy to fix.

    Electric Car in your future?

    You actually make a very impressive, well thought out, argument. The problem I have with it is, the "problem" we are facing is non-existent. It has been created by, ironically, the biggest offenders. How do you take a "problem" seriously when the meetings to discuss this "problem" are...

    Who Owns the Fence

    I have a slightly different take on this. See what fence he wants to put up at his expense. May look better then the existing fence. Also, I suspect this fence is right on the property line if this is a subdivision. Most builders put them as a "separator" to sell the houses and make it a...

    Garage door opener

    I guess. Was taking a break and saw this thread. I actually just replaced one of mine and wanted to read a bit--which lead to commenting, stalking, etc.o_O

    Wish someone had revived this thread before I bought one for my GDO.
