There is an awesome van in "Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency." Probably doesn't look like your van.

If your paying someone that knows what thier doing its going to cost a lot. The reason that thing looks so damn pretty is someone that has a lot of experience on the dumb end of a palm sander spent a lot of time sanding that thing to perfection.  Its would take you and the teenage kid your...

I watched a bit of it last week. It was interesting, but the two guys that kept hugging people instead of a handshake turned me off. Maybe I'm a weirdo but I really don't like hugging people I haven't met yet. A handshake works just fine. So I minimized Netflix and went to sleep. Hank

Use gas buddy app to find normal priced gas off I-5. The markup in the central valley is absurd.

Yes. I didn't do very well this year though. Work was getting in the way. Won't have that problem next year, and fish will be a priority. Not so much for myself, but for my extended family. Next years target is 75 copper river reds, split between my parents, my sister, and my uncle in the...

To big to amazon. http://www.homedepot.com/p/R-Matte-Rmax-Plus-3-1-2-in-x-4-ft-x-8-ft-R-3-2-Polyisocyanurate-Rigid-Foam-Insulation-Board-754404/100572981 Tape is under accessories.

I use a freezer and a small cooler. I have two blue freezer pacs, I switch them out every other day at most. Anything I defrost goes into the cooler so that energy isn't wasted. I understand that this isn't the most energy efficient way to refrigerate, but I would guess that investing the...

I just buzzed through eastern Washington last month. The free campsites webpage was amazing. Every spot better than the last. There is a pass for state facilities, its 30 dollars annually, probably worth getting. The only state site I wanted to camp at didn't allow overnight camping, I parked...

I've been using xfinity wifi hotspots, comcast uses the modems it installs in their customers home to create public access wifi hotspot. They offer one hour of access for free, once a day twice a month. There is no login, your device is identified by an ipv4 and ipv6 address, so each wifi...

Weather is chasing me, snowing on the Alcan, I just missed it all by a day or two. I arrived in Seattle this morning. Dropped of my passenger at the greyhound station and headed east with alacrity. It's dry and sunny on the other side of Snoqualmie pass. Hopefully the weather stops in Seattle. Hank

Gunny, this might be against a forum rule to talk about, but the internet probably has copies of the textbooks your daughter needs. Higher education is a racket. Someone is making money off your daughter, even with her scholarships. A lot of people are making a lot of money off that schlep...

I like Shameless. Lots of good tv out there. Check out The Americans. For real, my only recommendation. A show about living on the double. Preacher was a fun, just one season so far. Halt and Catch Fire: I really like this show. It takes place in the 80s, maybe it feels like my childhood? Rick...

When we were poor in the 80s we would get powdered milk. I wouldn't have known we were poor if it wasn't for powdered milk. It tastes evil. I love milk. The organic lahdi dah milk from the health section is the best. I don't put to much stock in most health labels, but I can taste it in whole...

There is a badge on the back door. Stabiltrack or some other nonsense word. Its on all the 2500s I've ever been in, up until a year or so ago maybe. No awd on a new express, but you can get a +11,000 dollar diesel engine. Yay UREA! AWD is great if you have inappropriate tires. Hank

Hrmm. Maybe. I bought a stubby handled brush for five dollars a while back. I love this cheap chinese junk as much as any other red blooded american but I don't think I should be eating tiny stainless steel spears. Brass brush or carbon steel, my guts bend brass and rust steel dull, but my...
