NWI INGO General Post - Part 21 - We can offically drink da moonshine!

I got this Snow Joe for $87 in November. I haven't used it except to make sure it runs, but it will be good to have in a pinch. It's only for emergencies when I just can't get anyone. It's electric, not battery. Our driveway is not that long. About 75' of cord should do it.

Must have been a more recent purchase. Wasn't that long ago eGo was sold by Home Depot.

HD and Lowes seem to switch lines from time to time.

More recently (last 3 or 4 years?) eGo is carried by Lowes and Greenworks Pro is carried by HD.

How do engineers manage to be the absolute dumbest smart people on the planet. Let's always screw common failure components into spots that you need baby sized hands to reach.

In this case, my furnace ignitor

I would probably be going with RYOBI because I already have a bunch of RYOBI, and I don't feel like having different batteries.

I got the Ryobi 40 volt mower.
First season great.
Piece of crap second season.
I dumpsrer.

I’m not happy with my 40v Ryobi

Maybe Act should buy 40v Ryobi and see if 3rd try is a charm?

Oh yeah I know, I used to have an Acadia, I had to remove the plastic around the wheel wells to just to reach the headlights. Before that there was something stupid I had to do on the throttle body when I replaced the throttle cables on my Honda Shadow.

I hope that Snap's delayed package with her guitar fares better than my ammo shipment did. It arrived this morning in a flimsy box looking like it had travelled from another continent. It was clear that the box had broken open and resealed with clear tape. 3 boxes of 45 ACP ammo from the original 8 that were shipped are missing. I reported it to the customer service e-mail address and will now wait for a response. Most of my ammo shipments from various online merchants look pretty rough by the time I receive them so I guess it shouldn't be a big surprise.

Yuck. I hope you get credited. I don't know why places that sell ammo don't seem to understand that dense, heavy items have to be packed in sturdy boxes where they will not move around. The more moving around the ammo does, the more it beats up a flimsy box.

UPS still has no idea where the hell my guitar is. It was supposedly scanned in Indianapolis two days ago, but there are no scans after that, and they still do not even have a projected delivery date. It's either lost or got beat up, I think.

Hurray a North of us30 thug!! Our numbers are increasing!

Now for thr important question.
Are you a glock or 1911 fan?

lol I saw that redneck/thug comment and wondered which one I was...

Actually, I'm a sig guy but just got a p238 that I'm really digging and now find myself eyeing the full size 1911 models. Can you be both?

I have a '98 Oldsmobile that as part of the procedure for replacing the serpentine belt is to remove the front passenger side tire and a couple motor mounts. Real fun to find out after the belt starts shredding on the way to work and you just make it to the auto parts store. Thankfully I found a work around on YouTube that only required buying a reverse Torx socket to remove a different spacer.

My puppy food showed up yesterday after Chewy told me by Wednesday.

Had an Olds 98 back in the day. Four door, Burnt orange with white vinyl top, velour cloth seats, electric everything, 455 engine. Was the ultimate party boat. Lived in New Orleans at the time. That thing drove itself home more than once.
