    Keeping heat out with paint?

    I wonder what the R was on the space shuttle?  They used tiles if I remember right and the tiles kept coming off giving them trouble.  Perhaps now at long last we can go back to the Moon if this new stuff really works good?  No insulation value but if we mixed up tiny pieces of...

    low profile mattress for two question

    I like my memory foam mattress.  It is expensive but I'm a big guy that needs cush.  I have an over kill mattress of about 8 inches and smile everytime I get into bed.  You spend about half your life in bed so make it blissful.

    Still undecided about home base state

    OREGON has no sales tax and some counties are fee free for vehicle emisions.  Check into South Dakota I hear their residency requirements can't be beat.  If you are a full time rv'er hit the states while on your camping tour then they are never out of reach.  Save your money for...

    Yeti cooler questions

    <p>I've used block ice in Coleman type coolers and the melting rate is dependent on putting the cooler in the shade up off the ground wrapped in sleeping bags.&nbsp; When you need something inside the cooler unwrap and get in quick, then slam the lid shut tight and re wrap the cooler in the...

    Which kind are you?

    <p>Don't fence me in...&nbsp; Could that pertain to the wall the US Government is building across our southern border with Mexico?&nbsp; Kind of reminds me of the movie The Magnificent Seven when the outlaw bandit snickers to the good guys and says, " that wall won't keep us out ".&nbsp; Yul...

    Which kind are you?

    <p>mockturtle,&nbsp; I have had dealings with the Railroad Police and they sure don't like people riding the rails for free.&nbsp; They are very nasty, rude and un-polite and will put lumps and bums on you at times.&nbsp; But in the Great Silver State of Nevada you can actually stop a train all...

    Which kind are you?

    <p>I was fortunate enough to grow up in the city and country.&nbsp; The country is better by far, but not perfect.&nbsp; Small towns have narrow minded people that love to know what you are up too.&nbsp; City people don't care so long as you don't bother them.&nbsp; So finding somewhere in...
