"Do - the stuff that buys me beer.
Re - the guy who sells me beer.
Mi - the guy who drinks the beer.
Fa - a long way 2 get beer.
So - I'll have another beer.
La - ...I'll have another beer!
Ti - No thanks, I'm drinking beer!

"Old VWs"
Okay, so I'm trying 2 decide between a sinka and a doka (look 'em up). Either way, it's gotta be syncro.
"Machinery,"
I'm having a time trying 2 find a new 3-jaw chuck for my 1920's South Bend lathe. Most have 1 1/2" x 8 threads/inch spindles, but mine has 12 threads/inch.
Oh, woe is me. (shouldn't that be "woe are me", "woe am I" or "woe be tied"? or something?)
"plumbing,"
I thought SF was an EMOTIONAL need!
"electrical problems"
I do tend 2 get my wires crossed more than I should...
"fishing tackle"
Fish play football??
"cool tools"
Above South Bend...
I also invented a "pneumatic fawcet wrench" once. Never really caught on, though. It's in the box with the muffler bearing and the left-handed framus reamer.
"my new smoker grill"
Thank you for smoking!
"guys know the acceptable topics"
Indeed we do. It's one of those "obvious" things...
"gurlz can seek help with stuff that needs fixin if they ask nice and can be patient while we figure it out on our own."
Just don't say RTFM! Guys HATE that!

Are cool sayings fair game?
I read this in a book about making telescopes, referring 2 the way ATNs (amateur telescope nuts) tend 2 see scope parts in EVERYTHING they run across. Went something like:
"Anything that isn't nailed down or on fire is a potential telescope component."

Yea, got my cool smoker grill last weekend. Haven't lit it off yet. I hear I need to "season" it by coating all the internal surfaces with veggie oil and firing it up and let it soak fer a coupla hours or a six pack. Any you guys done this?

Yes.
You want to season it. And a six pack is preferred timer over a clock.
So if it is guy stuff, I need your help.
(Never mind the fact that this involves the safety of my children, as we all know the guy motto: We don't realize it's gonna hurt until somebody does.)
Well, the kids and I like to juggle and stuff. And we have recently discovered that you can get flaming juggling balls. I'm not talking sticks, I'm talking balls here. No safe handle, just flaming balls.
And as we all know, EVERYTHING is cooler when it is on fire. (At which point, I am sure we have lost the girls).
Well. Me and the boys were having a discussion about this and one of them brought up our pet Black Widow Spider. And we are all stymied...
Which brings out the coolness factor more - things that are flaming, or things that are infested with highly poisonous animals?
Say for example, if I had son#1 juggling flaming balls, and son#2 juggling balls full of black widow spiders, which son would look cooler?
We just can't decide.

When I first read this I had just got bck to my hotel room on the island of Marstrand, western Sweden after drinking cuervo all night with the Finnish crazyheads after a conference. I was going to write " how manly is THAT?" But I couldn't type or see straight, and I suspected that if the spinning roof (that started when I lay down) finally hit escape velcoity I'd have to hurl. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> BTW regarding farting, and picking feet ( another manly pastime)I gave it up as part of plan A. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

WAT Grillin' is just another style of cookin'. Don't claim t/b manly because you get to play with fire. LOL!!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Btw, some of us girls can belch better than some of u guys.....after all look at all the pushing we had t/d just to bring what will eventually grown in to the future men of this world. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> Us moms are definitely not afraid of posting on what started out t/b a 'male only thread'. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> [color:"red"] B[/color] [color:"blue"] U [/color] [color:"orange"] R [/color] P [color:"green"] P [/color] !!! aWHH.....that's better! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

"Not sure where this came from." <You see Plank smelling two of his own fingers.> <Plank then curiously offers them for anyone else's inspection to determine if this scent has ever been encountered by another.>

Say for example, if I had son#1 juggling flaming balls, and son#2 juggling balls full of black widow spiders, which son would look cooler? Maybe they can do that juggling cross over where they exchange balls. Give the hands an opportunity to cool with the spider balls. Maybe work in plank to sanitize his fingers. WAT

WAT SNORT, BURP, SCRATCH! You BOUGHT a smoker grill? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> ROFLMAO!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />fft <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> Being a guy, you oughta KNOW that the BEST smoker/grill is HOMEMADE!! Whatcha need is either a 250 gal. or 500 gal. propane gas tank, a cuttin' torch, a welder, and assorted bits and pieces of metal (need enough solid sheets to build the firebox) and other stuff, plus an old boat trailer to mount it on so you can pull it to wherever there is cookin' goin' on. If you know what you're doin', you can fix it so that you can cook on either gas or charcoal. Whether you use a 250 gal tank or a 500 gal tank depends on how many hawgs you wanna cook at one time, or how many folks you wanna feed. Anyway, this is a smoker that will last forever! None of those lil' store-bought pieces of carp that will burn out on the bottom after a couple of years. And, y'all call yourselves "guys"! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

Well, LC - I happen to agree with you on a home made version. But I don't have a cutting torch or welder and I didn't want an SUV version mounted on a trailer. Besides, cutting on a propane gas tank with a torch isn't allowed in WAT's basic rules for living a long time. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> A guy down the street recently acquired a smoker exactly as you describe, using a home fuel oil tank and a utility trailer. It is a thing of beauty in a guy's eyes. He said I could use it if I needed to do a whole hawg. So, a very basic cost comparison yielded the store bought version for me. Even the home brew ones can rust out. Hopefully, ribs this weekend. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> WAT
