Cracked up the EU200i last weekend having not used it since last BM. It is still a sweet genny. Just remember to change the oil.

I think it's the LLC covering its legal back on advice of their lawyers I believe that Diane was right. Actually, it is more than that. One has to assume the LLC has insurance coverage. They have to. Everytime a claim or lawsuit is filed, the next year some underwriter will make sure that there is ...

Although there is a multitude of weapons systems available, our extensive research and testing revealed that the AIM-9 Sidewinder heat seeking air-to-air missile was the best tool for the job.

This thing is the BEST! We have had one for the last couple of years. I get a dark colored paint bucket, add 5 gallons of water- place in sun with a dark board on it. At the end of the day, the water is warm- the shower works great. We stand on a small pallet placed inside a kids pool and shower awa...

It would be very cool to put together a shit brigade, of sorts, that will go through and hang glow sticks in the potties at night to help others out. Kinda like hells version of the lamplighters.
Sure, I would donate some glow sticks- sign me up!

You have to admit however that most people at B-man are respectful of their fellow citizen when it comes to the porta potties. Nine of the ten times you go, the potties are clean, there is toilet paper and the lid is down. How many events do you go to each year (even one day shows)that you can usual...

I think the "circle the wagons" thing is probably more in response to the wind (vehicles make gooooood windblocks) than attributable to xenophobia. xe·no·pho·bia Pronunciation: "ze-n&-'fO-bE-&, "zE- Function: noun Etymology: New Latin : fear and hatred of strangers or foreigners or of anything that...

Hats off to gregori! Went to the link he referenced www.alamia.com and bought an EU2000i today for $870. Shipping included and no tax since I do not live in Colorado. They say they will ship today and receive w/in 4 to 6 working days via ground UPS. Best we could do locally (at the stores Honda has ...

The rain in 2000 did suck pretty badly. It was my first experience with "playa platforms" (The yuk would stick to your shoes and every step you took added another inch of the stuff until you were 6" taller). It was the first time I ever threatened to leave. If I remeber right, it rained most of the ...
