Thanks for the info, and I'm in SoCal for now.

So, for today I will have $7,200 to buy a van. The check I deposited had a partial hold so I will have to wait if it's over that, maybe another week?

I actually don't care about looks.  After driving a BMW that everyone likes to dent with their car doors, being "keyed" a couple of times, etc.  I will welcome a car that I don't have care about my new paint job.  It looks fine.  I am ONLY concerned if it runs well and is restored to drive safely.

Man!  Your insurance (and all the extras) cost is about the same for my liability only in CA.  I could buy it monthly then re-register it in my new state of residence.

Yes, I read my PM's.  Why do you ask?  He only bought it a month ago and doesn't know what the condition of the wreck was.  I guess I don't need full coverage.  My ins. co. suggested I do a Carfax rept or Lexisnexis.  Does anyone know if it will tell me the extent of the damage?   Thanks. ...

I have to be one of the luckiest people in the world.  I've never seen a rattlesnake in person and didn't grow up around snakes.  Only snake I ever saw was a water moccasin in Ohio.  Several years ago, I was hiking with a friend and had to, pee.  I went in a bush and looked down and saw a baby...

Some day...Right now I just do paintings of them from videos. :cool:

Snow Gypsy, I am wondering if it's something even more. If she smokes an estimated pack a day (about $233) and pays $500 rent, that income just doesn't add up to what she's receiving from SSI of $735. We do have to buy other things like toilet paper, dish soap, laundry detergent, personal...

I'm looking at  a salvage title Class B.  In order to get full coverage insurance I would have to jump thru hoops with the insurance co. and the DMV.  Any advice as to pass on buying it or just get liability (very costly just for that)?

I think it's called "conditioning" unfortunately.

That's why it added to be happy.

Here's a video of almost 9 minutes to help you live longer and be happy.  

Here's a video on bears in case anyone is interested from the Smoky Mnts youtube channel.

Spiff, It was MANY years ago that I was 15, so I think things have changed for the worse environmentally, unfortunately.  We still boiled the water back then and had no problems.  I would NOT do it now though.  So back to bears. :D

Spiff, I read the article and it mentions canisters.  So metal canisters would prevent the scent from permeating?  Also, where we camped and encountered a bear there weren't ANY other humans around, including wildlife managers.  It was so secluded we were able to drink out of the creek.  I guess...

I wonder if bears can smell freeze-dried food in mylar bags and buckets. Does anyone know?

I camped in the Smoky Mtns as a teen with my older and younger brothers. We had a bear outside our tent going through the trash in the middle of the night. My brother was sure he left no trash of value to bears outside. Thank God that's all that happened. (My brother was armed.) We saw the...

LOL, Yep, I think you deserve a badge, LOL, Bacon...

I've been the downstairs neighbor too many times. No comment.

I may have underestimated the cost of those things that are nails for your coffin and not helping your health:  https://theawl.com/what-a-pack-of-cigarettes-costs-in-every-state-173b6cb1fb9  This list is a couple years old, so I don't know how accurate it is now, but $233 per month is...
