Still got my 1994½ F250 PowerStroke. It looks bad but I love that truck. Maybe I should restore it.

Another reason could be liability. If the owner allows people on his property and someone gets hurt the property owner could be sued. That's the times we live in. There's always somebody looking to get rich quick and shyster lawyers looking to help 'em.

Go to http://www.space.jpl.nasa.gov . You can put in the date and time to see the view from Earth. It will show you the alignment of the planets. Or, you can ask it what Saturn looks like when viewed from Jupiter. It's the neatest thing I ever saw. NASA JPL Solar System Simulator.

A CO2 fire extinguisher works to get a snake out of your house, car, boat, or anywhere you don't want to use a firearm. Just freeze it.

They needed a CO2 fire extinguisher. Freeze the snake and then you can deal with it. They're cold blooded and when cold they don't move well. Of course a sharp machette works too.

Make sure you use the complete address in the link as some of it didn't underline. If you want to communicate with your wife using ham radio both of you would have to be licensed. The license is free (for now at least).

I think if you're on the water Marine Band VHF is the way to go for emergency communications because the DNR and all the marinas monitor those frequencies. To stay in touch with your family one of the other services would probably work. Go to the FCC's website to check on licensing requirements

Or, you could get an Amateur (Ham) Radio license. They dropped the requirement to learn Morse Code years ago. That way you could use a walkie talkie to go through a repeater. The repeater is a machine that retransmits your signal at a higher power for more range.

Go to this site for information.

The Galaxy 88 is a Citizen's Band radio so the frequencies it operates on are HF frequencies rather than VHF. They operate in the 27 mHz range.

If what you're talking about is the Galaxy 88 CB radio you need an antenna designed for the citizen band frequency range. If you plan on transmitting on regular AM mode the antenna needs to be a vertical antenna. If the radio has Single Sideband (SSB) capabilities you need a horizontal antenna for that. It should be mounted on a pole or tower with a rotor so it can be turned. Use a piece of RG8X coax to connect the radio to the antennas. Use a coaxial switch to change from one antenna to the other for the mode of operation you're using (AM or SSB).

When I was a teenager before I went into the Corps I worked at a gas station. My first job every morning was to clean the restrooms. I HATED cleaning the women's restroom. It was always a LOT nastier than the men's restroom. UGH!

They have a code on the bottom that you can use to find out the date they were made. If you go to the Zippo collectors site you can find the identification code.

I still have two 1969 models that I carried while I was in the Corps during that time.

Now THAT sounds like my doctor. I got the coolest Doctor in town. She's a great doctor, knows her stuff but she also knows there's more to life than longevity. Quality matters as well. She's the wife of my best friend and we go over there for Prime Rib and a glass or two of good wine from time to time.

Already done it and will do it many more times in the near future. My representatives in Congress are Republicans. What needs to happen is for those who have Democrats as representatives to call and write letters to them. There are plenty of Democrats that like having the right to keep and bear arms.

The Dems have gotten c***ting down to a fine art and they do it with the absentee b****t aka. Mail-in b****t. They do this because once the b****t is separated from the envelope there's no way to determine one b****t from any other.
