Popular Post other dog Posted July 14, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 14, 2019 I finally got a load to Florida, so I could see my fiancee. I loaded it on Wednesday, July 3rd. and it didn't deliver in Davenport until Monday the 8th, but I left Wednesday afternoon with it. I was going to go to Best Buy or somewhere to look at cameras before I left, but she said she knew of a great camera shop near where she lives and we'd go there. I've sent 2 Nikons in a row back to Amazon, and it's nice to be able to look at a camera, try it out, see how it feels, instead of just ordering it. The guy at the camera shop was real nice and very knowledgeable about the products too. I really liked a little Sony he showed me, but it was just too small, way smaller than the little Nikon I dropped. So I was down to a Nikon B500 and a Lummox camera. I went with the lummox, it seemed right for me... Just kidding, it's a Lumix, made by Panasonic. It's a bit bigger than I wanted, it's as big as my D3300 but it's a "point and shoot", and easy to grip. Seems to take good pictures too, even "drive-bys" came out pretty good. And, it was cheaper than the Nikon I sent back. It looks like this- I took these pictures with it- this is a plane. These are reptiles. We went to the Lake Apopka North Shore Wildlife Drive, or something like that. It was great, you drive this trail, it's one way, you can stop anywhere and take pictures, that's where we saw the large reptiles, and even saw one with a huge turtle in it's mouth. And it's free. I've got more pictures here- I tried the camera out on a girl in a car too. Not the best, but...the picture was actually better than this, but it was too dark. I tried to lighten it up but it made it worse, not as sharp as it was at first I saw a bird when I got home too. And, Dodge pickup update- new distributor installed, no change. A local mechanic who's a Mopar guy, has a couple of them he drag races, told me it was probably the computer. He told me to unplug it and put some of that electrical plug grease, can't remember the name of it, in the plug and see if that helps. So i'm going to try that next, the thing has about driven me crazy. 8 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Rob Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Oh I know it but anymore I could hide a tire behind my physique and the glare off my skull preclude me being photographed any longer. That is a good looking R model and you should be proud as it deserves a good hug. If'n I was to bring that home I would hear ole "Momma" yakking at me in the characteristic shrill voice through the space between that one remaining upper tooth and bottom lip to the tune of: "how am I supposed to get in the truck, it ain't got no step; I could fall and hurt myself. 1 Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Might still be some love there? Most scorn women would kill you with the Death of a Thousand Cuts, not a single coup de grace shot to the temple.

Best anti-corrosion dielectric compound in my opinion is Truk-Lite. That's all we used in the shop at Jevic.

Best anti-corrosion dielectric compound in my opinion is Truk-Lite. That's all we used in the shop at Jevic. We used a product manufactured in Canada on radar installations and modifications. It really held up well and was impervious to moisture intrusion very long term. I think the manufacturer was "Jet" but I'll see if I can round up a tub to get more information.
