RE: A Plain New Tesla

That said, there's a small market for people buying electric vehicles.
Every manufacturer is making at least one electric car, but the prices need to come down, range between charges improved and more charging stations available to make public acceptance so people can consider them equal to gas-saving hybrid vehicles.

RE: A Plain New Tesla

Clients of mine bought an electric KIA. They only had it for a few weeks and changed back to a gasoline model. I didn't ask, but it probably wasn't right for them.

It was 20 feet and not 120 feet...

laugh
Yes, tow. It was early and the 'E' is next to the 'W'

In the air, as in altitude.
The truck height is around 9 feet and it was twice the height of the truck.

RE: Antique

To answer your question...
Any working Gramophones are extremely rare and most valuable to collectors.
It's doubtful someone would actually want to play one.

RE: Antique

Orzzz is correct. The first Gramophones used cylinders.
For power, they had a hand crank on the side.

After, the design was changed to a flat circular record, the one most people recognize.

Growing a banana tree from a banana...

I read the instructions... TWICE.
Huh??

My EVO has died...

Thanks... however, I'm using ad block and there isn't a phone on the right.

It's officially Ron DeSantis...

thumbs up

It's officially Ron DeSantis...

Clip of Ron...

It's officially Ron DeSantis...

I'm curious who he's appealing to when he's quoted saying on FOX News:

“I will be able to destroy leftism in this country and leave woke ideology on the dustbin of history.”

I've seen a few news clips and he's attached 'woke' to every comment.

Patriots: Mark Ponder and others...

Pauline Bauer, 55, who went into the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6 riot and demanded that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi be brought out to the mob was sentenced to more than two years in prison Tuesday.

She was recorded shouting “bring her out here” and “we’re coming in if you don’t bring her out here”

RE: The happy holiday fights.

I know the Hollywood Beach Boardwalk area. It's predominately white.
The local news stories say police reported the gunfire came from two groups outside the city. During holidays and weekends, Police assign additional officers on beach patrol.

Growing a banana tree from a banana...

rob, many thanks for the comment. It will take some time to read up on it.
I knew a few things from experience, but names and specifics are all new to me.

From some of the YouTube videos, they were using dry onion skins, soaked and brewed like tea. Aloe vera gel at the end of a cutting of banana then placed in the soil. the onion tea was added around the banana and the outer perimeter of the soil got watered. The entire pot was covered with plastic and kept in the sun.

After 30 days, the beginning of a banana tree emerged from the soil.
We shall see as I'm preparing to setup one today... in between actually working my day job!

I'm told monkeys eat more than bananas...

Growing a banana tree from a banana...

AGuy, the bananas I was growing came from a source that were already bearing fruit.
I rule out disease.


Butcher, don't give up.
Try adding fertilizer.


rob, I tried milorganite but it brought pests so I switched back to synthetic fertilizer.

Oh, you're so rude...

gone... your comment was funny. I got it.

As far as the Hoveround, that was the first time I heard the name. I had to look it up not knowning. I thought it could have been an electric skateboard.
The reference to electric wheelchair is to benefit others who read it.
I mentioned on another blog about someone using a walker only to find it has a totally different name in other countries.
One of these:

BOGO (for those who don't know the term) Buy One Get One, or Two for One is the main reason for shopping Publix. Normally priced, they are too expensive. BOGO prices them less than Walmart.

thumbs up

As far as the political orientation, it doesn't take a special talent to spot someone who outwardly wants you to know where they stand politically.

laugh

Oh, you're so rude...

I've seen people take things from another persons shopping cart.
The theory is: That was hand selected to be the best one in the bin.


I got the joke and wanted to clarify it in case someone didn't

RE: Something Different

Two words says it all. laugh

Oh, you're so rude...

Ahhh... another comment from someone who only comes to my blogs to hit & run.

It's all about the perception.

To write a blog describing a situation where a woman got angry simply because someone moved her shopping cart doesn't make me the whiner... and you know that.
But, if it made you feel better jabbing me (as you always to on my blogs) then have a happy Sunday.

I'll in the middle of food preparation for a BBQ later this morning.
Back later ~~

Oh, you're so rude...

Not true... Trump supporters are mesmerized. If Trump called them morons to their faces, they would all cheer him.

Whining is a Republican trait.

If you don't believe me, look at Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene who complained that she made more money in the private sector. No one is twisting your arm. Go back!

Oh, you're so rude...

Luke... I take it you get them too! laugh

Oh, you're so rude...

Bentlee, you need to brush up on your comprehension skills.

The tourist/snowbird season is over.
The woman was a local.
She blocked the aisle.
A man moved her cart out of the way.
She thought he was rude and said so.
She saw that I watched the whole thing and must have become paranoid checking back to see if I was following her.



thumbs up

The pipes are callin' me...

I think I left out 2 others...
A four key B chanter from Bruce Childress
A four key Bb chanter from Brad Angus.
I think the B chanter I originally got from him wouldn't tune up and he traded the Bb.

Wait... wait. Are you sure about that?

So, the search goes on...
"Witnesses are telling prosecutors that Donald Trump had a habit of showing classified documents to visitors at his private Mar-a-Lago club, according to a new Washington Post report."


Who knows who got to see top secret and classified documents when Trump was showing them off, or as noted in other news stories... negotiated information with foreign governments.


Patriots: Mark Ponder and others...

Jessica Watkins — a military veteran from Ohio who founded a militia in the area — was sentenced Friday to 8 and a half years in prison for her role in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack.

The pipes are callin' me...

I've heard old recordings of Rogge sets and they were great.
Rogge probably started with a D set inspired from Rowsome dimensions.
His craftsmanship is flawless, but it's been many years since I abandoned the instrument. My guess is he's got a few apprentices doing most of the work now.

At one point I owned a 5 key narrow bore D half set from Geoff Wooff when he lived in Australia.
A four key D practice set from Neil O'Grady, Canada
A four key C chanter from Seth Gallagher, New York
A four key B chanter from Brad Angus, Washington
A four key practice set from Bruce Childress, Maine
A four key full set (in silver) from Bruce Childress, Maine
A four key D full set from Ian Mackenzie, Australia
A keyless narrow bore D chanter from Davy Stephenson, England

Quite a collection...

Keeping your oath...

They feel empowered to do so... I noticed it in High-school where those who came from families with money, picked on those who didn't.
One friend had tattered jeans that his mother stitched up and one of the football stars cornered him in the hallway saying "I used to wear clothes like that, until my dad got a JOB!"
Same concept.

Keeping your oath...

I'm up to the part where phat is connecting Hillary, Russians and Durham...
but, I haven't seen the connection as to why Stewart Rhodes was sentenced to 18 years.

Keeping your oath...

I'm too simple minded... I'll have to find a right winger to 'splain it for me.
