    Mine is driving me crazy on the lowest setting. Becomes much more noticeable in winter time. Is the replacement smaller, or is that just the angle?

    Today was interesting. Yesterday the BMW developed a miss in the idle. Easily fixed with a new coil. Apparently it was the last straw for my wife. She woke up this morning and her first statement was, "I am buying a new car. I'm tired of driving an old, unreliable car". Well, this happened today...

    It's just the angle. They're identical and the swap took about 15 min.

    Osh has Craftsman 1/2" impact wrenches on sale for $60. Didn't realize it was bare (no battery or charger). Apparently I don't know how much things cost and would definitely lose on The Price is Right.
    2 lithium batteries cost $90 and the charger is $45. Or, 1/2" drill with 2 lithium batteries & charger for $100. No brainer.
    Basically, you can get a decent 1/2" drill, 1/2" impact wrench, & 2 lithium batteries for $160.
    Save time, money, and your knuckles.

    Over by the sewage treatment plant in Sunnyvale, the birds have (seemingly) either gone or settled on the ponds. Not even walking the dog gets them into the air.

    3 weeks ago they were stacking up in there but they are working different areas right now. Somedays it's great and sometimes it is dead. Geese are up and moving more though
