    Day 1 was great. Day 2 was warm but fine. Day 3 was horse shit. We didn't open the side windows when we set it up, now with those open it's gotten a lot better.

    Future we'd be looking at something like this. But this was a couple hundred from the interwebs and showed up in a week without permits or licenses needed to set it up.

    I love my new truck but miss my Tacoma
    I was using a 50/50 mix of vinegar cleaner and water but I probably didn't let it sit long enough. Lol

    For the 3G guys in here. If you're looking at the passenger side top of your dash, can you see a faint outline of the passenger side airbag in the dash? I was cleaning my dash and haven't hit it with 303 recently and I noticed the faint outline of what I'm assuming is the airbag. The 303 seemes to have helped with the dullness of the dash, but I'm just worried that I'm starting to see a crack, however unlikely that is.

    I'm usually really good with the 303, but it's been a bit too long, so I'm hoping I didn't shoot myself in the foot.

    In the right light you can see that in almost any car, even with the airbag in the steering wheel.

    In today's episode of This is Rhode Island, let's not trust city people doing country things, we learn about widow makers!

    Is it bigger than it looks in the picture? Why didn't they just try to get it to the ground hahaha. Weirdos.

    I've got a killer one in my backyard right now that require one tree to be dropped... To drop the other tree that the widow maker is leaning on.

    No it's pretty small. Unlikely to kill but it's gon' hurt like a sonofabitch if it came down on your head.

    I took the support out and went over it. Next day it was back up. I didn't have any tools with me to wipe it out. Might have time and capability tomorrow. It's behind a YMCA in Rhode Island though, so I can't bring anything out there worth a damn without having a SWAT team called on me :goingcrazy:

    I'll take a left tomorrow when I'm out there and get a picture of some actual worrisome ones, we don't take that trail anymore because of them.

    I haven't really been on top of it, but on the sidelines.

    I think the defense brought it way beyond a reasonable doubt for the charges she was acquitted for.

    if you dig even 6 inches deep into the case..something was very wrong. It makes me wonder if it's always a matter of having the finances to defend yourself that uncovers the issues...she spent all of her personal money and then fundraisers and pro bono defense against the Commonwealth that just spent $4 MIL on a misdemeanor OUI conviction.
    Apparently MA. jury verdict forms have been an issue for ages but they have never had any "Case law" backing up a modification....so they can actually say Guilty _ Not Guilty _ next to counts...

    Hiring a Mob defense attorney as your special prosecutor doesn't help the DA office Image much either.
    I'll admit I come with my own biases having professional interaction with cops and ex-cops for years.

    I got the Dewalt 20V pruning chainsaw a couple months ago. It fits in a backpack and is awesome for clearing trails.

    Waiting for ONE reporter to ask the DA's office why a special prosecutor was used when his office has like 20 attorneys....Was nobody willing to prosecute this case? There was a gag order in place preventing these types of discussions. Now that the case is over they will have to explain why none of the states own employees were adequate enough "experts" and if they are not, they why are they even involved in cases?
