    Moving to Idaho!

    I'm a native of southern Idaho. I left for college, then grad school, then work...always trying to get back home, and before I knew it, I'd spent my entire professional career in NJ. Only now that I'm retired can I get back home. My NJ-native wife was never a fan of the high desert and canyon...

    A barbecue adventure, the saga unfolds.

    I recently discovered my new favorite steak cut...the bavette. I'd heard of them, but never had one. They're sometimes called the butcher's cut, as a lot of them get taken home and never make it to the cold case. The are a little similar to a skirt steak and a flank steak, but the grain is...

    Dan Gryder Lockheed Electra Crash

    I was pretty young when Dad brought home seat belt kits and installed them himself in our car and pickup. No one I knew had them at that time. A few years later, we were among the first to have the third, high brake light, installed by Dad from a kit on the car's hat shelf. I only figured out...

    Is ATP CTP a cash grab?

    Wait till you spend a day in an advanced nitrox course, and realize they could have covered the material by adding 15 minutes to the basic nitrox course

    AI Rant

    I suspect the AI isn’t running locally-the monitor is giving you a more ‘immersive and interactive’ experience by reporting at least the broad strokes of what you are doing back to the mother ship for analysis, so that any tweaks that might improve the ‘experience’ can be sent back to the...

    It is always a sound strategy to **** off the healthcare workers who will be sticking you with needles for the next week.

    I've not looked for it myself, but this was posted in the other thread about the crash:

    This one is VERY hard to listen to...I'm guessing another "cognitive decline"...

    Actually, that outcome was a certainty. But perhaps it was a near-miracle that he got on the ground with no one hurt.

    Airline passengers DON'T want to sit in the exit row?

    It can get even weirder. Here’s a woman who wouldn’t leave the exit row but also refused to help in an emergency. She was eventually arrested, but not before everyone else had to deplane https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13439087/amp/frontier-airlines-exit-row-passenger-deplane-flight.html

    Rental Pilots work on planes

    Screwdriver? Busy pilots don’t have time to mess with no screwdriver. Chuck a bit in an impact wrench and get ‘er done!

    Electric Lawn Tools

    That's exactly why Milwaukee and Dewalt dominate the market. Bright colors. Easy to spot when they fall off the forklift, so they don't be getting run over. :)

    Oshkosh 2024 - Who's going?

    My Eureka Domain 3 is almost 40 years old, though it hasn't seen heavy use and so not too much UV exposure. Structurally, it came through the storm just fine. But I learned it had been far too long since I last applied waterproofing and seam sealer--it picked up quite a bit of water inside...
