    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

    How the hell did I get to reach 76 years old?

    So crap. Yeah, it's my birthday today. Big deal. I should have just thrown the covers over my head and stayed in bad all day. Tropical storm in the Gulf bring fast moving storms through this area. Was a break in the storms this morning, so I got up earlier than I should have. Wanted to do...

    Reached an epiphany in life today

    With everything going on, in a micro and macro level, I reached a telling epiphany today. I have come to appreciate bitter old men. I understand what made them that way. I understand that life can just gang up on you leaving you no recourse but to just hate every waking moment. To not give a...

    Happy Fourth of July, 2026

    Hope everyone had a nice day for the fourth. I actually wound up going with a friend of mine to Apalachicola, FL to see the fireworks display they put on this July 3rd (Friday). It was actually really decent and well worth going to. What's not to like watching fireworks anyway?

    Sanibel Island, FL

    Spent the month of May on Sanibel Island with Pim. Was a pretty good time, but the water wasn't as clear as I would have liked it. Storms blew lots of seaweed in as well as got the water pretty disturbed. So no snorkeling again this year. Yeah, I know. Taking a vacation from being retired...

    You are still here?

    I am betting I could delete every forum here except the classifieds and 90 percent of the people who still come here would not even notice. After having some experience on Facebook, I can see the draw of Facebook and the stark contrast with this site. Participation. Plain and simple. No one...

    Pots calling the kettles "black"

    That is what comes to mind whenever I see human beings complaining about other species intruding on their turf. Personally, what is not to like about insect eaters joining the locals in helping to get rid of those pests. And as for vegetarian lizards, sheesh, unless they are decimating Aunt...

    Bent the tines on my excavator rake attachment

    Needed to figure out an effective way to straighten two bent tines on the SHE27 excavator rake attachment. I decided to brace the rake against a sturdy tree and use the tractor to pull the tines straight. I didn't want to pull against the gear motor in the excavator and put unnecessary stress on...

    Interesting thing to have if you are subject to power outages

    https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09H6GGK55?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 I bought one of these kind of on a whim, thinking that with tropical storms sometimes knocking power out here, might be a good idea to have some means to charge up my phone if the outage becomes extended long enough for...

    Teaching Pim how to operate a tractor

    I figured it might come in handy having a pair of extra hands if I need her help. Not to mention that if for some reason I get myself into some sort of predicament with the tractor and cannot reach the controls, I might need her to help pull me out of a jam.

    Playing with some of my toys...

    Generated a YouTube video of the stump extraction saga of a few days ago. I started out digging around that pine tree stump with the excavator, but instead of the stump getting smaller the deeper I went, it got larger. I dug down as far as I could go, and then just went around it, pushing with...

    Optimist club

    Was looking through the local newspaper this morning and browsed the calendar of upcoming events. Noticed they have an Optimist Club here that meets twice a month. Thought maybe I should look into it, but on second thought I doubt I would qualify, and it would just be a blow to my ego to be...

    Damn.... Got down to 20.5 degrees last night. This NEEDS to be against the law! And just where the hell IS that global warming people are doing the "chicken little" thing about? I am all for it. Bring on the higher temps. More carbon dioxide, too! CO2 is good for plants, so with higher...
