  1. No drugs, no shortcuts. A lot gym hours and putting the fork down. Firt guy probably couldn’t run to the end of my driveway. I couldn’t bench 115 pounds. Second guy ran a 10k at 50. Bench pressing my own weight. And more importantly, I feel good.

  2. Colossal idiot here - it was the Kill switch. I never use it, but had inadvertently hit it and - when she didn't start, that put be into a mental spin...which for me isn't a productive state of mind. Thanks to everyone for the assist. Now, if the temps will lower a bit, I'll get back to riding.

  3. Those who succeed come to realize they have effectively made a lifestyle change, and it is to be maintained as such. The benefits are not just physiological, but psychological as well. You did this--no one did it for you. Savor the sense of satisfaction and well-being--you earned it. Resist the urge to look critically upon others who have not your sense of commitment and dedication (despite any obvious need on their part); but, rather provide quiet yet competent influence by continuing to lead this lifestyle of healthy example. Congrats, and carry on!

  5. Yea, it's fucking nuts. Carlos brought his fucking starlink to my house and hogged up almost 2 square feet of my dirt with it. Then I stupidly decided to move it all by myself and damn near threw out my back, I can almost guarantee that monstrosity weighs over 5 lbs.

  8. 2000 Suzuki VZ800 (aka Marauder). 29k miles. The Good - starts and runs well. Shifts ok at the 15mph or less I rode it. Bodywork is reasonably good / straight. After market seat. Thats about it. The bad - forks are HEAVILY blown - and have been for some time. Im not sure about the rear shock either. Brakes are HEAVILY contaminated. Im shocked the damn thing stopped when he rode it here- literal grease/oil on the rotor and pads. Chain'n sprockets needed replacement in 2006. Tires likely too. I "think" the frame is straight but the bolt on t-bar style handlebars sit tweaked in the triple. Knocked around during a fall I'm sure - cant guarantee bars are straight. This is one if no one wants it will go for scrap. Whoever buys its will get a title and " for parts only" BOS - do with it what you will. I'm genuinely scared to sell it locally because someone might actually try and ride it as is... If you can do labor yourself and spend some time with it - you could make a decent riding reliable bike out of this. Some investment would be required. $100 bike + $250 doc fee and tax for your location.

  10. New Blower motor from RockAuto runs from $18 to 49. Additional $10 for the blower motor module. Blower motor relay is $8.50 to 22. How much time have you spent on this already?

  13. On my carbs the needles look like the one on the left. If I remember correctly, there is also a small washer? Hold the tip of a soldering iron on the alloy part holding the pin on both sides of the float, just don't touch the float.

  14. Sad. I like eggs. Can do alot with a boiled egg. If you let them go weeks beyond stale date, there are other uses for them. edit to add: they really explode if you shoot 17hmr.

  16. A friend's parent's oven crapped out so they called a professional, it was deemed unfixable so they ordered a replacement which was just under $3k. Then the BS started with delays over unavailable models and and it became over $4k. Then I heard about it. I ordered an OEM heating element for under $70 and installed it, done.

  19. Sorry about your ego. I didnt say - or in my mind even imply that people who get there a different path are less. I just shared MY path. You chose to be offended by it.

  20. I missed the question before. It has a different, and dare I say it, more fluid impact. It can impart both more force but less trauma on the part being hit. I have no idea if it's quieter, but logic says it must be. These tools aren't loud so I don't imaging anyone cares. This isn't a 1/2" oogga-doogga impact. I'm still lusting for this but best I can find is just over $180 on eBay, so nah.

  21. You're right, I glanced at the old 809 and put that in my mind. $120 is still great.

  23. Same for me... almost everyone I have spoken to have either stopped the drug or reduced the dose because of side affects. Do I have slight side affects, sure. But absolutely nothing that has even remotely made me consider stopping. Tummy ache for an hour. Injection site soreness. Maybe slight depression (don't really experience this anymore) No shitting problems, not massive aches, cramps, headaches... nothing. BUT.... I drink a metric shit ton of water and take 8 fiber pills a day. I also eat clean and healthy 85% of the time. No alcohol too. So... I am sure and have been told this definitely has something to do with my success.

  24. Oh, also noteworthy, nobody in healthcare is easily offended and they all enjoy some good bullshit. They always ask which eye, and what correction/surgery you're going to have. When they would ask, "Right eye cataract removal and toric lens with doctor Levin?" "Wait, this isn't my vasectomy???"

  25. You do know there is a blower resistor in the system right? Usually they start failing only on one or two fan speeds but I guess it may be possible that it or the connection to be failing. I'm not saying that is your problem but another place to look. https://www.autozone.com/cooling-heating-and-climate-control/blower-motor-resistor/p/duralast-hvac-blower-motor-resistor-ja1506/200888_0_0

  27. My guess is that Scott overstated the shittiness of the bike's condition, and I've piloted some very questionable vehicles of all types, but not without an assessment. I might do a fly and ride for this, but with the expectation that there will possibly be a U-haul involved.

  28. + 1 I have eaten a LOT of eggs my whole life (sometimes 3 or 4 a day) and the last I checked, I was still alive and no sugar issues. While I have backed off eating so many only because of the possible cholesterol connection, there is no way I fully believe this below without something else being involved.

  29. Where did you hear this? Can you provide a source? I only want to know, so I know which source to ignore as total BS.

  33. Love you too buddy 😎 We may tell him at some point, but not until he's a bit older and I know that we can trust him with the news. I don't want to end up in a situation where he fucks something up and blames his autism for it. Like my grandson, fucker has been told that he's ADHD kid and now each and every time he screws up, he's just saying "But I have ADHD". Little fuck needs his ass whooped once in a while, but his mum is treating him like a proper wuss. Pisses me off.

  34. I would build a simple frame with lightweight wood lattice insert. Note: not the heavy privacy lattice. Use super simple hooks or twist clips to hold it in. Problem with the fabric is if is isn't secured properly all the way around a strong wind will tear it up. Also, roof should have been "pitched" forward a little, but oh well, never mind.

  35. And if the shitbag/buttplug victim doesn't have a trailer ball you can stick one half to the bumper or tailgate and still get the visual effect for half the cost.

  36. FB and Tiktok are great sources of medical info. Particularly something that is somewhat easy to OD on and has deadly or lifelong consequences. Luckily however, nearly every FB seller is significantly under-dosing it and selling mostly water.

  37. I moved the panels to the roof, just 9 of them so far. I haven't connected to the electrical panel yet, just powering the AC and car charger. Yesterday I ran the AC all day and charged both cars, the total energy was more than the house's average daily consumption. The 40amp solar charge controller was maxed out, but it pulled it off and the batteries never dropped below 12.5v.

  38. Man, the new plugs really seem to perk the 'ol girl up. After it warms up, the idle is kicking up to around 2k? After its warm, and sitting off, a quick tap of the starter button and it pops off immediately. It was never that responsive in my memory. I need to adjust the clutch out a 'tidge
