There will be a viewing area at the Burlington VT airport with an entrance fee of $100. Seems like a steep fee. Couldn't you just go to a park, cemetery, or other open land with a view of the sky, and watch for free?

Its a Story & Clark, built around 2002. Its sort of a hybrid. It runs off of 120v electricity. While the player pianos of 100 years ago required foot pumping to create a vacuum to run the entire system, this piano uses a vacuum cleaner motor and the paper drive mechanism is electronically...

Over in the mid engine Corvette forum, someone noted that the AC Delco liter cans of dual clutch transmission fluid were dated with a future date. Which led to the question of whether the fluid had a shelf life, in the can. The fluid itself says it is made in Germany, and I suspect is a...

Its been minus 27.2 since 3 am. I have lived here for 20 years, and this is the coldest I have personally witnessed.

Seems that there is no list of dexos licensed oils on the internet any more. The old links to lists have been deactivated.

My days of experimenting with different brands and viscosities are now pretty much at an end. I am using Shell Rotella Syn 5w-40 in all my internal combustion engines, ranging from a 2003 GMC Duramax diesel to an old Infiniti Q-45, a 32 year old BMW air cooled twin motorcycle, and even my...

It was a foggy and moonless night. A fellow was walking home and his route took him past the local cemetery. After he passed the cemetery, he heard a sound behind him.... bump....bump....bump He turned around, and in the darkness, in the middle of the road, he saw a casket bouncing its way...

Four guys who work in Boston form a carpool. Unfortunately, the route takes them through the "Big Dig" tunnel, and one of the fellows is very fearful that the roof will collapse and the tunnel will flood. Unfortunately, there is no good alternative route that avoids the Big Dig. He goes to his...

Q- What happens if you have too much phone sex? A- You wind up with hearing AIDS.

There were two Eastern European fellows who spoke English with heavy accents. However, wanting to assimilate in America, they spoke English all the time as best they could, even when only talking to each other. Neither fellow had ever gone deep sea fishing. They decided that this would be a...

I heard a joke, and then a variant of the same joke. Two ministers were walking through the woods when they encountered a pack of hungry bears. As the bears came closer, one minister said to the other, "I hope these bears have Christian values". With that, one bear comes up very close and says...

Sounds like a clearance sale of the now discontinued 5w-40 T&SUV product, not a re-supply. Get it while you can.

I was talking to an old crummudgeon radio ham friend of mine yesterday, and we were discussing the Michael Jackson verdict. Out of his mouth came the following sentence: "Michael Jackson....he just rubs me the wrong way." I guess he was an overnight guest at Neverland Ranch!!

You guys make me want to run across the border up to Sherbrooke to pick up a couple of cases for the Duramax next winter. Plus, maybe pick up some drug prescriptions too, along with some Marvin's oat cakes and brews not normally exported.

I assume its some kind of elf in the Black Forest thing. However, when I think of Germany and synthetic oil, I think of Albert Speer and WW2!

A major explosion, killing at least 14 employees, at the BP Texas City refinery. Explosion/fire centered on the isomerization unit. Isomerization is a process to produce high octane component for gasoline. Gasoline prices in the trading pits immediately shot up by two cents a gallon...
