With proper care, Marlin is really good. Makes me wonder where all of those Cabo caught Marlin ended up. They always said, they went to “the orphanage”. If so, those kids must have REALLY liked fish!

We have a Pentair electric pool heater. We use it only for our spa. Found that floating a cover on the spa speeds up and retains the heat when the spa is not is use. The 8’ dia plastic over came from Amazon. It‘s basically heavy duty bubble wrap. Heater works well and the bubble wrap really...

Wife used to make an egg nog from a recipe in the ‘Talk About Good’ cookbook she got from friends from the US South. It had abundant bourbon, rum and brandy in it. Very good, but lethal. Nothing was from a carton.

Since this is a boating website - Costner has had at least one Radon. Don Radon custom built it for him. Lord knows, Costner could afford a lot more than a Radon. Apparently, that’s what he wanted. Believe, particularly for diving.

Thanks. Looks interesting. Is it good?

Hopefully this is not a vin. Did an RDP search and found nothing. I’m hearing about a Mex food truck in LHC, ‘La Baja‘. Has anyone tried it? Menu, location, hours etc? I have to agree with what I believe RD has said - When it comes to really good Mex food in town . . . there is none. Maybe this...

RD’s guy, Tom, has also done good work for us. I would definitely recommend him. Believe his business is called “Landscape & Yard Restoration”. Leave a message if needed. He does return calls. 928 453-9291 or 727-3225.

At this point, search for a missing nuclear device seems almost plausible. Wouldn’t the search also take place during daylight hours?

Biden is a 100%, certified prick. And he’s doing his best to prove it, as he fades away. I’m a believer in Karma. Good luck Joe Biden, you POS.

Hey, I thought this thread was about Lowe’s and Home Depot?

Yes. All of the testing I was required to take, and pass, was completed at USCG Regional Exam Centers. Each were a level of the Merchant Marines. Various amounts of experience were required for each level. Things have changed. My most lengthy test took 5 full days to take, with the USCG exam...

No

Serving in the US Merchant Marines is an interesting situation. It means you’ve passed all USCG testing and other requirements to operate vessels of a certain size and sometimes in a particular area. Any Ocean Any Water status grants you permission to operate anywhere. Special testing is...

I don’t know if US Merchant Marines who served post WWIi are eligible for USAA membership. I never looked into it. Many people aren’t even aware of the U.S. Merchant Marines. I’m thankful Lowe’s does acknowledge us.

You missed my point. HD does NOT accept 40 yrs of service in the U.S. Merchant Marines as military service. I’ve spoken twice with them about it. Therefore, we’ve spent thousands of dollars at our LHC Lowes. HD can go take a Flying F.

Congrats!

In LHC Lowes offers Vet discount to retired U.S. Merchant Marine. HD is clueless, doesn’t offer the discount and their help is often far less than knowledgeable. Choice is easy.

Your kids and family are very fortunate. You’re doing good, Dad. Photos and/or videos of the surprise, please. It will be a Christmas they will remember for ever.

I like them, but they don’t like me. In NOLA I used to blame it on the excessive amounts of beer I had with them. Get back to my hotel and puke more than once. Happened later with sushi containing crawfish. I have no problem with any other shellfish, just them.

i’m old enough to well recall, getting up early with my parents, turning on KTLA Ch5 in LA, and watching nuclear tests from Las Vegas. The broadcast included video from cameras staged at the blast site showing the blast devastation on previously positioned structures and artificial humans. Much...
