I’ve seen a few threads, and a couple of discussions on removing spots from glass, but nothing recent on paint. We bought a new 2024 Odyssey (black paint) less than a month ago. I washed the van 2 weekends in a row (2-bucket method, Meguiar’s Gold Class, Griot’s Garage 3-in-1 Ceramic Spray...

We picked up the wife's new 2024 Odyssey (Touring trim) on March 26, and just getting the chance to post up about it. We've really, actually needed a van for years, having a 3-yr-old, 2-yr-old, and 1-yr-old. Back in December 2020, the wife had her 2018 Civic hatchback 1.5T 6MT, which we loved...

Shopping for a new 2024 Odyssey, as we just found out we're expecting our 4th child, and, by the end of the year, we'll have 4 children under 4 years old! My SOP is to treat the car-buying process as a bid, emailing multiple dealerships to inquire how much they're willing to discount their...

This last night… C-FBWH - Canadian registration. https://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/352204 First came through on the TV news channel apps as an automobile crash that resulted in the closure of the eastbound lanes of interstate 40. This is along I-40; I pass this area daily on my commute...

Wife got it for me for Christmas and I’m just getting around to posting. Man. I’m enjoying this thing! It is simple, elegant, and is capable of producing espresso that equals, in quality, that of machines costing thousands of dollars. Manually-operated, lever-actuated espresso presses aren’t...

OK, now I can understand the hype of the Moccamaster. Finally set it up yesterday. I've used it twice, and this thing is REALLY fun to use! First off, it has a sort of "retro" look (that's what the wife said), while the Behmor looks like a '90s rocket ship! I think they compliment each other...

If you need a new coffeemaker and want an actual “good” one, this should get strong consideration. These are considered the standard by which all other autodrip coffeemakers are judged. They’re made in Holland, as they have been since the ‘70s or whenever they came out. Theyre known for their...

@Rand saw my post about my new Behmor coffeemaker, and VERY generously sent me some of his home-roasted coffee beans (some excellent Bolivian Caranavi AAA) to try out in my new machine, and, let me tell you, he knows what he's doing! Not only did he send me a very good quantity, but he also...

I know I have some fellow coffee nerds here on the forum, and just wanted to share with y’all about the Coffee 101 podcast, which I've enjoyed listening to over the last couple of months. I'll listen while mowing or washing the vehicles. Hosted by Kenneth Thomas, founder, owner, and head...

Just ordered a new auto drip coffeemaker! For the last 9 years or so, I've used the BUNN Velocity Brew. Good brewer for medium and dark roasts, but over the last few years, and, especially, over the last few months, I've developed a real affinity for light roasts, and the sweet, fruity, and...

"A United Airlines pilot has been charged in a bizarre ax attack earlier this month in which he savaged a parking arm at a Denver International Airport employee parking lot, causing an estimated $700 in damage. Police say the pilot, Kenneth Henderson Jones, told them "He just hit his breaking...

Geez, now this is a hard landing! What happened, @Astro14 ? Did they slam the nose down? Lots of speculation as to who was flying, with rumors that it was a new-hire FO on an IOE (initial operating experience) flight. A lot of people are also guessing about whether United will elect to...

Here’s our family road tripping vehicle. Yakima CBX rooftop cargo carrier (Yakima aero cross bars and towers) and Arksen (Amazon) folding hitch-mount cargo basket. If interested, I talked extensively about the Yakima CBX and crossbars, etc here Wife and I in front, the 2.5-yr-old, 1.5-yr-old...

We're still soldiering on with the ubiquitous Linksys WRT54GS V7 that I've had since 2007. It's been OK since we don't have a lot of devices (just mine and my wife's iPhones, 2 laptops (which we don't use much and are never on at the same time), and a Roku. The kids are still very young (2, 1...

I am, of course, skeptical, as much as I’d like this to be true. How are his claims any different than anybody else who’s claimed, over the years, to have insider knowledge that our govt, and others, possess recovered alien vehicles and technology? He admits everything he’s claiming is...

Hello lawn care experts! I need some help! We moved here last September, and, with a 3-month-old, an 18-month-old, and a soon to be 4-month-old, and the wife and I working, I haven’t taken the time to do anything to the yard aside from keeping it mowed and edged. Like most in our (semi-rural)...

With about 20 hours on my new 2022 Gravely ZT-XL (42", 21.5 HP Kawasaki FR651V 726cc air-cooled v-twin, Hydro-Gear ZT-2800 transaxles) that I bought in September when we moved into our new-to-us house on 1.1 acres, I'm considering going ahead and changing the oil and filter soon. I've decided...

I have a laptop that I bought used about 10 years ago, and my wife has one that is a little newer (about 2 yrs old). However, now that we have kids, and a house, I’d like to get a PC for everyone to be able to use, for convenience. Sure, most anything can be looked up on phones, but there are...

I enjoyed this video on the Smarter Every Day YouTube channel, featuring Apollo engineer Luke Talley explaining some of the engineering feats of the Saturn V rocket. Enjoy!
