Veterans Day commemorates the service of all U.S. veterans, while the older Memorial Day, which grew out of Civil War commemorations, specifically honors those who have died while in military service. Veterans Day (originally known as Armistice Day) is a federal holiday in the United States...

Just a bump to the top as a reminder, 50 years ago tonight at 7:20, 29 Sailors met their fate on the Edmund Fitzgerald.

MSN Story by Ben Nol The season’s first outbreak of freezing, Arctic air is headed for the United States this weekend into next week. It will register as the most unusually cold blob of air on the planet for a time. Chilly air will reach the Plains and Midwest this weekend before spreading to...

It's been 50 years since the storm that sunk the Edmund Fitzgerald. I was rather young at the time, don't remember much about it, then the song by Gordon Lightfoot came out in 76 and everyone's curiosity was peeked. Since then, lots of books on the subject, a few TV Programs and a museum in the...

Too Much of a Good Thing Be careful to use the recommended amounts, regardless of the brand. Ask me how I know....

You are absolutely correct. Redneck Engineering by today’s standards.

It's that time of year to set your clocks back one hour when you turn in on Saturday night. The good news is we'll gain an hour of sleep for one night and the days will continue getting shorter (less sunlight) for another month or so. Arizona and Hawaii are exempt. Most anything with a chip will...

There's been a lot of them, some funny, and some downright scare the bejesus out of you. I'd have to go with the Exorcist. Things I hadn't seen or heard before, and since.

When you think about it, our trailers are out there in the worst of conditions. Salt, sand, road crud, slush & cold. It's a wonder they last as long as they do. A little TLC can mean the difference.

I might have come across too harsh for those that make a living fitting square pegs in round holes. Society would look drastically different without the apptitude of our engineers. For us weekend mechanics, we may question as to why you put the little thing under the big thing and why the left...

Unfortunately, most engineering doesn't give two :poop::poop: about the after market maintenance. I've always changed my own oil in all things except for my current pickup. Whereby the Oil Filter is behind the front left wheel and behind a flexible curtain attached with push pins. But before you...

It's time again for some thought into the upcoming snowmobile season. We all want our machines and trailers to be ready when we are so let's share some thoughts and suggestions. I'll be riding my 4 Stroke Blizzard again this year and there's very little start-up maintenance required. Two or...

We're all familiar with the Budweiser Clydsdales and to a lesser extent, the Dalmation on each wagon. The present day purpose of the Budweiser Dalmatian is to serve as a companion and mascot for the Budweiser Clydesdales, a tradition that began in 1950. Originally, Dalmatians ran alongside...

I'd recommend the Caliber products. They have pretty much everything for traction, guidance, etc. https://www.caliberproductsinc.com/product-category/snowmobile-trailer-accessories/

Created by NOAA's Climate Prediction Center, the latest outlook anticipates warmer-than-average temperatures for much of the contiguous U.S., although southern states will most likely experience a drier and warmer winter than usual. Conditions in northern states are expected to be cooler and wetter.

Looks like Mezz wins the six pack of Hamms. You know, if a guy kept his garage door closed, these things wouldn't keep following him home!

You mean like Big Foot and the Fake Moon Landings? It’s possible.

I've heard of people purging the Cooling System with air...

Never did, never heard of it before.
