    Digital cable TV

    I have Comcast digital/HD cable service on my main TV & use the converter box they supplied with the service. Wife wants to add a TV in the basement (after I get it finished) that will get all the digital channels but not HD - we just have an older Sony 27" tube to put down there. She wants to...

    Boating tragedy in Middle River today

    See following news link - we just got in from our Capt. Morgan sunset cruise a few minutes ago. By some dumb chance, we decided to venture into Frog Mortar Creek & anchor right outside the Parkside Marina (lots of wildlife to watch on the wooded boundary of Martin State Airport). We noticed...

    Sportsman's Double

    I met an older woman at a bar Friday night. She was real personable & not bad looking at all for 60-ish. We got to having a few belts & BS-ing a bit & she asks if I've ever had the Sportsman's Double. I said I'd never heard of it & asked what it is. She tells me it's a threesome with a mother...

    Yuk for the Day

    Hole in One!

    Well, after 21 yrs of serious playing golf, I finally got my first hole in one last Sat 3/10! The lucky event occurred on hole# 12 at Twin Shields Golf Club in Dunkirk, MD. Played about 147 yds with a knock-down 7 iron (was real windy & had to keep it pretty low). Pic below is my big behind...

    Anybody familiar with SE Arizona?

    Mrs stevieray & I are actively looking for some retirement property - neighborhood of Pearce, Portal, Tombstone. Pics of the lots on the web look real nice - very isolated, larger (6 - 10 acre) parcels, mtn views, which is what we are interested in. Won't be ready to build or relocate for...

    Zapped?

    Where'd the "rock lyric euphemism" thread go? To Zapagonia? I didn't think it was out of hand or anything (unless somebody posted an unwarranted "f" word that I didn't see). :|

    Squeaky belt

    I put a new alternator & 2 belts on the wife's old Mazda a few weeks ago (one of my few non-boating projects). This morning when she started it, I heard that half-a-second screech you get from a mal-adjusted belt. As a general rule, does that indicate a belt that's too tight or too loose?

    Wobble Rollers

    Well, I went thru the search function for as long as my eyeballs could stand it & found nothing on this. I have an old Shoreline trailer with 32 wobble rollers & they all need replacing. These have molded-in steel inner bushings that ride on 3/4" diameter shafts & have a 1" bearing length. I...

    Open fuse panel

    Noodling around under the instrument panel on my 1988 23ft Celebrity, I see the fuse box is just an open panel - no cover or lid or other protection from the atmosphere (except that it's under the instrument panel). The fuses looked like they were getting a little corroded, so I replaced them...

    prop "slip" at hi rpm

    I recently put a 1988 Celebrity 230 - GM 305 with Alpha One back into service after a 2 yr layout (just built a house - long story). The lower unit had some pretty bad corrosion due to SS prop being left on (another long story). Noticed corrosion was worst where the prop butts into the lower...
