That's a pity.
Some canuck must have been watching too many U.S. News programs.

 

PM sent. Yep, my kit came with a sprayer but it's the type you need to hook up to a compressor.

 

Same here.

 

I've seen that picture. It's great.

I never ever want children under any circumstances and there is not a woman on this planet who could convince me otherwise.

 

A box on my doorstep from Summit? OH BOY! What could it be?


TRUCK PARTS!!!



Too bad it's raining like a bastard for the next couple of days, it's dark by the time I get home now, and I opted to put the truck up on blocks at the end of my driveway rather than pull it into the garage so that I could still get at my motorcycles if the job took longer than a weekend. (And since it's rained all week I haven't been able to ride to work anyway )

 

Fangirling like a mofo at the Middle East in Cambridge

 

Read your signature...

 

Lol.
Wasn't saying I wouldn't do it, just saying that it'll suck.

 

I believe I will be traveling past you this weekend. Family flying up and we are headed to Boothbay for a few days.

Edit: Sorry. Guess I may be in a radius near but not past you...

 

Lol, not if you're going the right way!
I'm off of I95 up past Lewiston. The best way to do it is to jump onto 295 in Portland and take Rte 1 from Topsham/Brunswick.

 

Duh what? and remember I'm getting old.

 

That is the way we go... I guess I was thinking about when I as up there last... A friend has a few hundred acres up toward the Passthedumkeg range.

 

I need to stop searching Craigslist for Tacoma parts...getting the itch to change out my winter wheels again. I've had 4 sets of wheels on the truck already, I really don't need set #5.

 

Thanks, Chris!

 

If that works I'll be happy to be the go-between..I'm already there so saves one or both of you guys some fuel and time.

 

Got tonight's dinner started before I left for work this morning.

 

Mmmmmm. You gotta love slow cookers

 

Here's my recipe if anybody wants it.

3-4lb beef shoulder (roasts, briskets, etc all work just as well)
4-6 potatoes (depending on size)
1 large onion, quartered (I prefer Spanish onions)
4-6 carrots (or a bag of baby carrots, or in this case one bag of sliced carrots from the deep freeze)
3-4 garlic cloves, sliced thin.
1/4-1/3 cup of flour
2 beef bullion cubes
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground black pepper

Combine the flour, onion powder, garlic powder, and black pepper in a bowl. Coat the beef shoulder in the mix, and brown it on all sides in a skillet with a couple tablespoons of olive oil.
Add all of the ingredients to the slow cooker and add two bottles of beer (or ginger ale, if you prefer, but beer is better), plus a little water if necessary.
Cook on low heat for 8-10 hours.

GRAVY-
Drain 1 cup of juices from the pot. Heat in a small saucepan
In a measuring cup or small bowl, dissolve 2 tablespoons of cornstarch in 1/2 cup of water. Whisk mixture into juices in saucepan and bring to a boil. Continue to stir until thickened to the desired consistency.


Proceed to stuff yourself until you're too full to move.
