Keystone State Thread

this country got exactly what its leaders wanted with these costs, if it isn’t obvious the subtle chess moves that have occurred over the last few years, the folks that make the world go around are victims to the power hungry pigs that “run this country”. There will never be an actual shortage of any commodity, only fear of shortage which in turn makes the cost increase to what the thieves want us to pay so they can further exploit the working class hero.

 

Good morning fellow Pennsyltuckyvanians!!

4" of wet snow here, yesterday. Ugh.

 

Yes. IMO it’s better because it applies when using the washer fluid obviously. The fluid is a little more costly than regular but worth it to me.
I used the wipe on RainX when it first hit the market, a drop hit the paint of our car when applying and stripped the clear cote off.

 

Good morning PA.

 

Morning Pennsylvania

 

Good morning Pennsylvania

 

That is about all I use now!!

 

Coyote calling and shooting out the window with the best view and safest field of fire.

A time Honored country tradition for friends and family if things work just right the kitchen table makes a nice bench

 

Really all generated Power goes into the regional energy Grid .

Between Coal Fired and Gas fired plants we should never see brown outs

 

Well if things line up just right Saturday will be real interesting.

Lots of wind might be snow or rain

Anymore we know when it is all done

 

the PUC determines gas flows during cold weather events. Many coal plants have since shut down due to operating costs. Last blackout I remember was 2003 time frame due to low voltage from underestimated reactive reserves, not real power. The power grid has come a long way since then.

 

i can only go by the ones local I saw in the last few months.

Not like when I worked outages before breaking my body.

 

emissions penalties for running such units are hefty nowadays so they bid into the market at higher spot prices which quite often don’t get met. Doesn’t make sense for a company to leave a generating unit in standby waiting to be called upon and the day never comes. Can’t run a business like that for too long so unfortunately many of them go to the wayside.

 

Heh, I forgot to share it here. I've posted the progress in another thread, but not everybody looks at that one, so here you go!

 

I worked with a fellow who put a lot of effort in his garden -- and had an ongoing war with woodchucks.
He kept a 12 gauge in the bathroom and "from the seated position" could do the sniper thing out the window.

One day while sitting there reading the Readers Digest he observed a woodchuck and dispensed with it in the usual manner, unknown to him (and it wouldn't have mattered anyway) downstairs his wife was visiting with a lady from the church.

BOOM -- directly above her head
Lady: "My goodness! What was that?"
Wife: "Just my husband in the bathroom..."

 

Looks like a nice neat job!

Now you can get back to your bodywork project.

 

I would, but I sold it a couple weeks ago...

 

Someone saw it sitting outside and made an offer you couldn't refuse? (I hope)

 

Hah, I stuck a for sale sign on it and hoped for the best. Guy handed me $1100 in cash and I took it I lost money, but don't have to worry about putting any more money in it. There was more rust than I thought; the rear subframe was toast and no good available ones for replacement...
