My wife of 42 years passed recently, so I am knee deep in her death cleaning and realized just last PM that I am also doing my own. Highly recommend "The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning" by Margareta Magnusson. Very thin book, easy read, thought provoking.

I had a serious case of Shingles. Left side of my face. Could have cost me my sight, about that in a bit. Three weeks in a dark quiet room, 5 medications. Exhausting. Very painful, even with Gabapentin for the nerve pain. Get Vaccinated, Shingrix, series of 2 injections. Should protect for at...

Stainless, no matter the style should defeat rust/corrosion. Mcmaster-Carr for the win.

Sorry to hear of your partial blindness. I can relate, blind from birth in my right eye. (Amblyopia) 20/800 on a good day. I recently had left eye cataract surgery and post surgery was a revelation. To be 20/20 at 68 years old. Best of luck holding on to the one eye that works. From about the...

Many years ago, when I first switched to Red Line for my 1984 Ford wagon (LTD, 3.8L v6) I noticed that after about two weeks with the new oil, it seemed to be changing color much sooner than I expected. With some thought, my conclusion was that the engine had some sludge built up. I did some...

I worked on that product line, power supplies. They were really complex because they were also responible for cooling air flow. Compounded by several hardware configurations. SGI's downfall was buying Cray Computers. fat biker

As somebody who has a crappy fico score, I can tell you you want a good score. Low score means you will likely pay more for things like insurance and is a factor when jobsearch. fat biker

I have personally installed more Fram filters in my time wrenching than I could ever hope to count. One time, I bought an oil filter PH2870a that was defective. No "o-ring" seal, and not loose in the box either. I have always figured that no matter how good your manufacturing process is, every...

You guys crack me up, big time. Thanks, fat biker
