Yup...but I probably deserve the name calling anyway.

During the winter I run the snowmaking plant at one of our local ski resorts. It's, um, "usually" cold when I am working. It's a small enough town that my truck is just getting warm when I'm about 100 yards from home... With my remote starter I lean over to the window at the pumphouse and push...

The last oil change on that thing was, what, a billion miles ago? Sheesh...

Just kidding, sir.

I live in Big Bear Lake, approximately five miles from the eastern edge of the Slide Fire (Green Valley Lake & Running Springs). The easterly winds blew the fire and smoke away from us during the most critical period. Despite the close proximity to a fire that claimed over 200 houses we were...

Anyone do a used earwax analysis?

Chris - I have friends in Fawnskin and they have seen lots of wildlife recently, including a bobcat, since the Butler #2 fire. They got some nice pictures of it - an impressive animal for sure. I see lots of really healthy looking coyotes here near the lake on Eagle Point and over towards...

Howdy Y'alls! I have a log splitter with a filter on the hydraulic system with identifying numbers "056 115 561G". Any suggestions for a suitable replacement? I Googled that model number and it looks like it is an engine oil filter for a VW Golf III 2.0 GTI. Would that be appropriate for...

Another pointless Toyota hate thread. Great points Mokanic.
