    This is so very tempting. I showed it to my wife and she said that we need to buy it! 😧🤓 1972 28 foot Marinette Express Cruiser. $2500! 🤪...

    I'm getting unknown sender emails that I can't block

    Today I've received 3 emails (so far) from an Unknown Sender with subjects like Fat Burning Secrets, You've Been Chosen and so on. Seriously scamming but I'm having a problem. I'm on Windows 10, using Outlook 2016 installed on my laptop. With other such emails I simply right-click on them...

    Freezer door not freezing

    Our upright side by side fridge/freezer is misbehaving. The inside of the freezer section is working normally (23 - 25 degrees) but the freezer door temps are 33 degrees. The stuff we had in the door has started thawing out. Right now my wife is moving critical stuff from the upright to our...

    Stock buying software?

    I'm interested in getting some software and a website for buying and selling stocks. I'd like to be able to buy fractional shares, gift stocks to others, set up "auto-buy" at a fixed dollar amount which would then divided by the stocks in my portfolio. And other good stuff. 🤪 Does such...

    Buy now or wait until Black Friday?

    I got a little windfall cash today and started to order couple of electronic items that I've been wanting. Then I remembered that Black Friday is 3 weeks from today. Made me wonder if I should just wait awhile. What do y'all think? :unsure:

    My new trucklet!

    "Picked up" this 2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz a couple days ago. Traded in my 2020 Kia Sportage, which had a max tow rating of only 1,600 pounds. This new "Sport Adventure Vehicle" (as marketed by Hyundai) is rated at 5,000 pounds towing, which suits my needs perfectly. It's All Wheel Drive (AWD)...

    Can anyone ID this Mariner?

    Buddy of mine picked it up and already has it running. He asked me to look up some parts for him and I'd like to know what it is besides a 25HP Mariner. Year? Model? And so on... :unsure: :cool: Thanks! :) The ID sticker isn't much help. :rolleyes:

    Need advice about a home water well

    I'm in the middle of a driveway paving project and as a part of the process, the well bladder was moved out of the drive and over next to the house. The well head (the black rectangle) remains where it was before and is still in service. Everything works normally. We're planning on installing...

    How long to wait for a materials delivery contractor to return a call?

    I'm in the middle of a driveway project and have had a couple of loads of dirt delivered in the past several weeks. But now I'm ready to really start cranking up and getting several loads at a time in a short period. I've called or texted several delivery companies but they sometimes don't get...

    We're installing a new driveway/parking area at our homestead. My neighbor buddies (brothers) came over 3 days ago and got started. They worked all day Saturday. :) I'm very pleased with the progress so far! (y) Today, I have a question. Do I actually need to install a French drain along...

    Tackle boxes

    My "new" tackle box (less than 5 years old) broke badly enough a month ago that I ended up trashing it and pulled out my old standby, which I've owned for something like 35 years. Both boxes are general purpose types and are large, although the old one is huge compared to the newer one. The...

    Windows 10 help needed

    Last week I upgraded my Dell e6500 to Windows 10 and I'm slowly getting things tweaked to the way I want them to be. Everything is legit and activated. Yesterday I installed MS Office 2016 and this morning I started to configure Outlook and was going through the process when an Account Setup...

    Back on the water, catching fish

    Finally got the bugs out of our Starcraft Kingfisher and went fishing this morning. 🎣 My wife and the boy caught bluegill and I hooked a couple small bass which came off at the boat. My shoulders have been killing me for well over a month and I simply couldn't get a proper hookset. 😖 But...

    I need a small in-dash tachometer

    I've been seriously thrashing the web for a 2" diameter tach which can mount in my dash and work with a 2-stroke motor. So far, no joy. I've found a few automotive tachs which would fit, but can't handle 2-stroke engines. There is very limited space on the dash for the tach. I suppose I...
