All Activity

I was tempted to turn the AC on today, but I didn't. Our electric bill seldom gets over $200, but it has been the last 2 months. We had unusually cold weather though, so it should be coming back down. My son lives in Pamplin and his bill was over $650 last month and his new one that he hasn't even gotten yet is also over $650. He lives in an older 2 story house, probably not the best insulation either, so that's probably why. I have a step daughter who lives in Pound, VA. and her electric bill was over $800- wow!

Thanks for the info !!

Last Monday at the regional convivence store chain where I deal Diesel went from $3.19 to $3.99 in the 2 hours I was at the dentist!!!!

80+ here today, so I've been busy. I washed my car, Buttercup, and the Zinamobile. I thought about washing the Mack, but that's as far as it got- thinking about it. wyze_product_share~2.mp4 Zina's going to play bingo at the bingo playing place for a benefit on Saturday, and my sister, niece, and sister in law are coming from Cumberland to play too. She's going to drive the car because you have to go through a kind of narrow underpass under the railroad tracks and apparently it's better to mash my car in it than it is the Zinamobile.

A interesting letter for the cook when you get home Paul

I remember back in late 2007-2008 being in Idaho, filling my tank and getting a little cash and writing a check for 1 large. Clerk looked at me and said 'If the bounces it is a felony". Yeah, we've been there before, and it was right before a fall.

I was mainly citing the cost of diesel since bottle hauler dropped 1g for 230 gallons. That same 230 gallons would be anther $203 if it was purchased here. 😩

...and I said the other day "I should take the Mack down to Express Lane and put some fuel in it", then I said "no, I'll do it tomorrow", then tomorrow I said "I'll just do it Monday", then Monday it was raining, so "I'll do it tomorrow"... still haven't put any fuel in it. 🤣

I would use at least grade 10.9 flanged, fine thread, hex head bolts and flanged, distorted thread lock nuts.

we also have a very high county tax,,,,that nobody seems to know where it goes,,,except for the obvious

Oh boy do I envy you guys.Converted to US dollars Diesel is now 9.48 a gallon over here.....Think the Cruiseliner will be parked up for a while🥶.... Paul

Yes, you can use regular frame bolts to reinstall. They dont have to be huck bolts.

I know.. heck it was $2.59 before the Iran attack. Sheetz 88 octane was $2.39

That hurts my feelings Joey!

Discusting another area that has way overpassed peoples wages … bob

We would be thrilled with that

Ok great thanks … bob

I see him on Facebook pretty often, so he's still around.

$3.19 here in central N.C.

Took this 20 minutes ago. PA does have very high fuel tax though...

anybody know what happened to him??? bob

Neom: It is very simple, she went from being an asset in his eyes to a liability. I have no idea if he knew about the ad campaign and its costs before hand or not. He didn't care about the mess in MN or the citizens being killed or hurt. But make him look bad with a multi million dollar ad campaign and YOU are going to take the fall, not him. Waste fraud and abuse is in the spotlight, and you are going to take the fall. It wasn't Dem outrage that cause her to loose her job it was Rep outrage that did.

I guess I would say elevated fuel prices are a very predicable and expected outcome from any sort of agitation in the Middle East. What we are seeing now is total chaos and instability in the Middle East. You literally have a Muslim country firing rockets and drones into other neighboring Muslim countries, which is unprecedented. Most of those rockets are targeting oil infrastructure. I think one of Iran's strategies is to make gas prices so high so that those that still support Trump at home turn against him and he is forced into some type of off ramp on the war, strikes, military operations, or whatever its being called.

My understand, again I am open to correction, is the additive is a "salt" that plates the surface and is blown off the surface by cavitation only to be replated again. You see this "salt" as a white powdery substance on the liners, and anywhere where coolant has leaked and dried. Modern waterpumps use sealed ball bearings in a cavity that is protected from coolant by the face seal and weep hole (to drain any coolant that gets by the seal). I also know it is possible to "over treat" (and there are test strips to check for levels) and cause problems.

That’s pretty much regular prices around here it’s effing ridiculous. We got it down till like 385. We were all pissing our pants then right away and they come up with a couple of more excuses why it has to go racing right back up again and yes, 415 is the bare minimum here. I’ve seen it as high as 465 south of town everybody’s got more money.
