    Depression

    I've faced some pretty dark days myself where I seriously considered the rope or the gun. I came close, but never went over the edge. What helped me then and continues to help me now is my faith in my Lord and Savior Jesus [censored]. For me, it works like this - start a faith relationship...

    Doctor.....Patient

    My brother loves to tell the time he went in for his first prostrate exam. The doctor asked him, "Have you ever had one of these before?" To which my brother replied: "Do you mean by a doctor or on a date?"

    Tire age? Bias ply...

    Over the years, I have built several "tire" playground structures for Churches. When I first started, bias plys were still around and easy to find. I had several patterns for different things I could make out of a tire. One was a swing that looked like a horse when you finished cutting it...

    How bad is 18-month old gas? What should I do?

    storing new tires

    When tires are not mounted on wheels, I like to store them laying on their side. Space permitting, I only stack one on top of another rather than all four in one large stack. I like the "storing under the bed" idea. An old sheet or blanket should do the trick and the wife will never know. If...

    Final update: We came home from Church today to find a HUGE pile of plastic trash bags and boxes at the front door of our house. Upon opening said boxes and bags, we found it was my son's stuff along with boxes of pictures and other items from when they were dating, (i.e. letters, little...

    Update: Last Friday, sent a polite letter requesting property be returned or legal action would follow. Received a call Monday from Ex's father. He said "let's not go through all this, we'll ship the property to your house, you should get it in a few days." (Keep in mind, he lives about five...

    Leonard Nimoy Passes Away at 83

    Okay, I'll let you guys in on a closely guarded personal secret that I've never even told my wife. When I was in grade school, this bully was picking on me. He noticed my ears were kind of pointy and started calling me "Spock." The name stuck all the way through High School with me running for...

    Need legal advice.

    As my sister says, there are three sides to every story, your side, my side, and the truth. In his defense, I will say my son is a very honorable, truthful person. It's simply not in his nature to lie or deceive. As far as the reason they broke up, his ex was extremely controlling. He finally...
