I got a new phone a few weeks ago. Didn't really want to but was having problems with the old one. The new one is sooooo much better. Better reception for calls, faster access/downloads on the internet, great camera. I need good internet access when traveling and good reception for calls. Other than that it's just a toy but it's a pretty cool tool and does a lot of stuff.

Use a squeegee, I make my own window cleaner. 4oz ammonia, 2oz alcohol, 3 drops of dish liquid and 20oz of water. Also cleans a lot of other things. When you live alone you learn to do everything. Well, almost everything.

He's alive! How you doing Ray? Going to be around this weekend? Maybe I'll stop by and see how your kitchen project turned out.

A little white vinegar, water and a new micro fiber cloth work pretty well.

Old school was use newspaper instead of paper towers. The ink would keep the windows from streaking and give a nice shine.

Ray I remember using newspaper when I was younger. But it doesn't seem to work as well now, they have probably changed the ink. It seems to leave what looks like greasy streaks. Maybe it is just me.

Hmmm, those ideas sound better than the spit I've been using.


Mrs., I'll have to check the going rate for moppsy maids. I could use a little extra cash. Although I'd much rather be building Harley engines than doing domestic stuff.

The wife and I made a quick trip down to Florida last Friday. First time that she has seen the place. She likes it. Came back home Sunday night. I was going to stay and work for a couple of weeks, but her broken arm isn't letting her do everything here that has to be done. So now it looks like I won't get anything else done until the fall. Getting too hot down there. I don't see how you guys that live there tolerate the heat.
Some drunk bastard lost control of his car Saturday night and smashed into our power pole. Snapped it off about 8' in the air. Tore up the new sod at the road approach and gouged the concrete all up. The new gator has a clutch problem that won't let it shift when it warms up. The stinkin thing is 2 weeks out of warranty, but the Ocala John Deere dealer thinks he can get it covered. Had to get the fuel pump replaced on the 4x4 Ford van. 600 bucks for that. I could have done it for 200 if I had been there.
