We always had real trees when the kids were growing up. It was a bit of a tradition to go out and cut down our tree. On nice warm days, the kids would take an hour or longer to find the 'perfect' tree. On really cold days, it took about 5 minutes.... Now that we are empty nesters, we bought...

I don't understand the thinking of doctors telling you that your too young to get a knee or hip replacement. If your in that much pain while your just 56, why would you want to spend the next 5 years in so much pain, you can't hardly walk? I'd rather get the surgery, and enjoy the next 5 years...

Talked to the crew of one of the C-47's. It turns out that two of the three C-47's in the airshow (shown below) were actually involved in D-Day on June 6, 1944! They both made several trips to Normandy that day, first hauling gliders and then hauling troops/equipment. They had just been to...

Me and my siblings will be there 7/24 through 7/26. This event should be on everyone's bucket list!

Thanks, It was great! Spent the day on the golf course.

I also noticed a lot of car alarms going off in the background. Augusta must be in a bad neighborhood!

This year you'll have to change it to 84 beers.

The viscosity of an oil is measured by its resistance to flow. There are two numbers that define the viscosity of an oil. The first number ends with the letter 'W', which stands for Winter. This measurement is related to how an oil flows when it is cold, such as at engine start-up. The second...

Are you looking at calling 911? If so, then any cellphone, whether they have a contract or not will be able to call 911 Emergency. If your looking at calling your brother-in-law at 2AM to pull you out of a ditch once a year, then it sounds like pre-paid phone is they way to go. The minutes do...

Gary, when the Iron Curtain fell 25-30 years ago, the Russians started selling many different planes to the west. This particular Mig 23 is based out of Texas and is for sale....$1.4 million. All it takes is money... My son and I are heading to Oshkosh tonight!

The starter motor does not make very much noise. If your in a quiet garage, you can hear the motor spinning when you try to start, but the bendix is not engaging the flywheel.

I think this is happening on my 600R as well. Is your bendix engaging the flywheel? This is what I found happening on my sled. If you tip your sled on a 45 degree angle when starting. gravity helps the bendix slide and engage...(helpful if stuck on the trail) I checked on how to fix this and...

I'm not a Wisconsin Resident, but this is where I do most of my riding. My sleds are registered in Wisconsin. I am a local club member and pay $25 Family membership dues annually. Since I have four sleds, I pay $65 annually for membership/permits for these sleds, if I were not a member I...
