    Season 2 of Jack Reacher out on Prime today

    Enjoyed season one, and was really surprised on how much better I like Alan Ritchson as Reacher compared to Tom Cruise. The TV series also struck me as more fleshed out than the books I have read.

    Towel Rack Blunder-Nothing Burger

    My wife put a small table at the end of our driveway with a free sign on it and had no takers for 3 days. I told her people want something free if they think it is worth something, so I put a $10 label on it. It was stolen in broad daylight within 20 minutes.

    Goodyear's reputation

    Goodyear Wrangler RTS came on my Dakota. Traction was good but 3 tires had to be replaced because of sidewall cuts, and that is not using them off road. Replaced with Goodyear Tracker II from WalMart, which went 60,000 miles with nary a hic-up.

    Tune up time!

    We had a LeSabre that went to the junkyard at 305,000 miles due to collision damage. That 3800 was the best engine I have owned. Lots of power, excellent fuel mileage, and very little oil usage. I want another one.

    Need a Gun Recommendation

    Friend of mine, very experienced shooter bought a Ruger LCP last summer. We both tried it out, and both of us ended up feeling is if our trigger finger had been stung. Apparently the trigger reset is a bit snappy on his gun.

    Cardo intercom pairing issue.

    My buddy and I ride with Palktalks, and when paired in Bluetooth mode (flashing blue light) we seem to have issues with different functions dropping in and out. When in DCM mode (flashing green light) it is better overall. The only issue then is when we get together after not riding for a few...
