  1. Today
  2. Well, I was fortunate today. I bought my DR field mower from Bluff City Cycles. Looking for motorcycle shops in my area, this came up. Got my parts in, so I brought the bearings and the drive assembly in to see what he thought. He didn't have that many more tools than I had, but he was much more familiar with driving these out and installing new ones. Total cost...just under $33. I can start putting it back together this weekend.
  3. Yesterday
  4. Good thing my android isn't listening to me 24/7..
  5. It's not too large to ship, and USPS economy ground wouldn't even be very expensive. Finding a local XX owner who needs bags is probably one in a million. You can probably just pack all that inside the top box and put that in a large box, for under $40 to ship. I ship a lot of oversize stuff.
  6. I'm subscribed to the Reddit sub where those posts come from, it's pretty funny. The best are the ones who say that the harassment, stalking, V2k (voice to skull transmission of words), and similar things stopped...when? While they were in therapy and on drugs. "THEY just want to keep us all on drugs and in therapy." Man, SO close to figuring it out. And I make fun of it but also realize that mental illness is not funny and they have a real medical problem.
  7. Givi trunk with rack, and soft saddlebags with rain covers for a 1997 Honda CBR1100. Local pickup only, this is too large to ship. If it is listed it is still available. $300.00
  8. A woman on Next-door claimed that her neighbor was pumping poison gas into her house, many believed it. About a week later she posted about all the EMF and whatever that was attacking her, she backed her claim with meter readings. I told her that she could probably solve both problems with the assistance of a mental health provider. I'M NoT cRaZy!!!! Yea, ok.
  9. got 4 bikes downstairs, all show no sign of these issues will check again tomorrow to see if anything changes.
  10. This i the bike with the bent front wheel? Can insurance be asked to cover things not caught during the first inspection/repair?
  11. Last week
  12. Same here. Everyone QUICK! Start eating farmed chicken it’s the new vaccine!
  13. Hey, I owned one of those until I let the neighbor who had just chugged half of a fifth of whiskey take it for a ride. Did not end well but he survived.
  14. As I eat either chicken or turkey every day for decades, maybe all those antibiotics is the reason we never got the China flu. 😉
  15. I've had the, um, "opportunity" to, uh, "tour" several of them, in the course of, mmmm, "interacting" with employees that work at that sort of place. Observations: 1. Disgusting 2. Heartbreaking Even more disgusting than mushroom farms, which I, uh, "visited" under the same circumstances. Funny thing, mushroom farms are where all the waste from factory chicken houses and egg farms goes - the poop, the goo that comes out of the machine that they throw the baby male chicks into, the tons of broken eggs, the dead birds they shovel up off the floor and literally load into a dumpster with a front end loader.

  17. ATLANTA — The fast-food chain Chick-Fil-A backtracked from its decade-old “no antibiotics ever” pledge intended to help prevent human antibiotic resistance linked to the rampant use of the drugs in livestock production. Instead, the company said in a statement that it will embrace a standard known as “no antibiotics important to human medicine,” often abbreviated as NAIHM, which entails the avoidance of medications commonly used to treat people and limits the use of animal antibiotics to cases of actual animal illness. Livestock producers have long used antibiotics to boost rapid weight gain in animals such as chickens, pigs, cows and sheep, improving the profitability of their businesses. Over the past decade, however, many nations, including the United States, have begun to restrict the practice as evidence mounted that it was contributing to drug resistance and reducing the effectiveness of antibiotics against disease in humans. Chick-Fil-A said it will begin shifting to the new policy in the spring of 2024. A company spokesman added that the move reflects company concerns about its ability to acquire sufficient supplies of antibiotic-free chicken. One of the poultry industry’s largest companies, Tyson Foods, said last year that it was reintroducing some antibiotics to its chicken production and removing its “No Antibiotics Ever” package labeling. It began to eliminate antibiotics from some of its poultry production in 2015. In a May 2023 video featured on the Tyson Foods YouTube channel, Tyson’s senior director of animal welfare, Karen Christensen, described the shift as “based on scientific research and industry learnings.” She noted that Tyson planned to begin using antibiotics known as ionophores, which don’t play a role in human medicine, to “improve the overall health and welfare of the birds in our care.” Ionophores have long been used to promote growth in livestock.
  18. What are you using to get past the pay wall? 12ft ladder isn't working.
  19. I sure would like to know the amount of antibiotics ingested per breast of chicken.
  20. Many foreseeable and unforeseeable ways to do that. I think the below pic shows the most likely way.
  21. Factory farmed birds may be one of the shittiest things we can eat. And we might create the next pandemic this way.
  22. Pretty interesting. Never knew "no antibiotics" actually means “no antibiotics important to human medicine,” Chick-Fil-A backtracks from its no-antibiotics-in-chicken pledge, blames projected supply shortages - The Washington Post
