I hauled meat for years from Texas to NYC and none of it is 'fresh'.... You shoulda driven faster! And turned the box chiller on!

Went over to air out the barn yesterday morning and found about a half quart of Shell Synthetic Diesel under my lube cabinet. Seems summer always stresses the plastic jugs. Fortunately, I had some room in another jug. Thank God for Gunk degreaser...

It's 92 at 2:30 here in Phoenix. Cool end to a ten-day stretch of 110 plus days. Humidity is up and the monsoons are all around town. Hope we get good rain soon. Last year they termed it the "Non-soon." We didn't get much at all.

The "disaster house" we just finished remodeling was 22 years old when we bought it and the septic system had never been pumped! It took flushing a radio transmitter on a cable down the toilet to actually find the thing as we had no as-builts for the property. I was there when they pulled the...

Politics Has Hurt Science... COVID May Have Killed It.

...built a couple of roller stands for my little horizontal band saw. I need to do the same thing. I was gonna modify a woodworking roller stand but may not be able to get it low enough for my saw. Sure helps when cutting the end off longer pieces. I bought a HF saw the same day they marked it...

"It's just a mask..."

This article raises some serious, if not frightening, issues... Is The Pandemic Real?

Happy Birthday Flip... I think there are gonna be a few law suits in NYC... Insider Nurse Report

Remember? This was only supposed to last two weeks... It's only a mask...

I believe the "Cancel Culture" is in the process of cancelling themselves. People are fed up. NOTHING can stop what is coming... NOTHING.

Very nice Ray! Can I move into your shop? :) In the Peter Piper Pizza voice, "C'monnn Ovv-aah!" I have an excuse. A friend got interested in Overlanding. That is where you take a purpose built vehicle and head out on dirt roads or no roads on a two week adventure and never once see...

The grinder pedestal post above reminded I have to get mine built. I have a heavy cast base-with-post table base I plan to put on rollers and mount four grinder/buffers on to make more room on my workbench... I have been pretty busy this last winter... I had some major work that took some head...

More on Wayfair and human trafficking from my favorite Canadian... Kids For Sale?

Yeah, I sure think so but, I am not a horse person. Many do have corrugated tin shade shelters but, they are often high and small. I'll drive by on a hot day and one or two will be in the shade while three will be out in the sun. Maybe, the horses down here like heat??? I know my dogs...

Len, Sorry to say, some don't even get into shade. The way some people treat livestock makes me crazy. The spread pictured at this place is new and well done. Most barns or stall have fans and misters. My old barn had a mister system set up in the indoor stalls for the animals. Some of the...

Len, Despite what is said by the media, the wall is being built. Thus far through California and Arizona, a lot of the construction has been replacement wall but those areas are now being connected by all new barriers. And they are having an effect. Here is a fairly recent update. Keep in mind...

We are glad to pass on our ten day spread of temps north of 110. Lake Havasu was 120 yesterday. It's looking a lot like Christmas... NOT! It may be hot but, the scenery still is nice. Got this while riding around with my girl dogs in my Ute... Somebody has a nice view from their backyard...

Yup Bill, that's the critter. But, honestly, I have never seen ten of them in any one place before. And if I made a soapy caterpillar smoothie out of a bunch, and sprayed 'em on my tomatoes, eating those tomatoes would kinda be the last thing on my mind. Much easier to buy nice fresh ones in the...
