    Best way to dump a customer?

    We've been (understandably) 'fired' by a few dog groomers. Our little guy is the most laid back, chill dog you'd ever know. Until he sees and hears the clippers. Then he turns into Cujo Shih Tzu.

    What is the silliest reason you got a ticket for?

    Some of these are crazy. I haven't gotten a ticket in years, but the many I received as a young man were all legit.

    Plastic to fuel “recycling “ slowly coming on line

    This is an interesting subject. Some plastic bottles say to put the cap back on and recycle, but many recycling centers want the caps removed. I once worked with a guy whose "community service" time was spent in a county recycling center. He said he was instructed to send any bottles with caps...

    Walmart Battery Core Charge

    Exactly. I've never had a core tested at WM or anywhere else. I think confused is the key word.

    Thoughts on these "resurfaced" Rotors

    If it was me and seeing that it's back together again, I'd just run them out 'till next time and then replace the rotors.

    Bad experience with good outcome at Walmart

    You are correct. When I worked in a tire and lube operation, I would have pulled the car out of the shop and told you you needed new lug nuts. Any work on the vehicle beyond that (same visit) would have been performed by a manager as I would have moved on to the next job.

    Get rid of the penny?

    I've been saying the penny should go for over 40 years, so I guess I'm a little ahead of the curve. I can't remember the last time I carried change in my pocket and only carry enough paper money to leave a cash tip if I desire (instead of on the card). If I'm going somewhere that only accepts...

    Ever Notice You Get Less MPG Just After an Oil Change?

    While seemingly running "smoother", yes, I have noticed a slight ding in mileage until I've worn the 'new' out of the oil.

    Columbia House 1 cent CD's

    Many of the CDs in my collection are from BMG. Sadly, I rarely play CDs (or any other prerecorded music) these days.

    Engine Break-in

    Same. When I 'break in' a new engine, I pretty much drive it the way it's going to be driven.

    No more Super tech 30W, Now what?

    MY WM has a shelf for small engine stuff. The ND-30 and the lawn mower 10w30 are there along with the small bottles of 2-stroke oils. Right above it are the small engine spark plugs.

    Fill it up... with Ethyl

    I remember as a young child in the 60's, my dad would sometimes ask (or was asked) for Ethyl gasoline at the filling stations. Looking back, my first thought was Ethyl was an early attempt at gasohol, but Google quickly informed me that it was the addition of tetraethyl lead to the fuel. What I...

    Hot Rodders - The death of the flat tappet cam.

    I already own the next 3 (maybe 4) cams I have planned for my next builds. What I'm hearing in other groups is that there have been some quality issues with lifters coming from 'overseas'. Hopefully we won't be seeing this with the cam cores in the future.

    McDonalds

    There are actually a few "mom and pop" restaurants in my area that make better burgers than the chains for less $$. That's usually where I head when I want a hamburger. Although, occasionally, I do get a craving for Two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a...
