NWI INGO General Post - Part 8

[chef larry]

Nope,my local go to for pizza and Italian beef is Verona's on 6 in Portage. And I must say their deep dish is pretty good. But I am always looking for some place new to try. If anyone has tried Marcos let me know how it is.

You are right about the Italian beef from Verona's. Had one today and they are great. Did you know Verona's is moving over to Willowcreek RD by the BMV after Easter/ 04/20/2014?

I got the biggest one I could get from Radio Shack. Mounted it inside my attic. Buy bigger and you won't regret it. I'm 6 miles outside of Lowell and I got good reception on all but channel 2.

Nobody gets good reception for channel two. When I worked in the city we could, quite literally, see the antenna for channel two and still got crappy reception.

For the 2nd time in less than a year, I have had to put out a fire in my own backyard because my neighbor likes to light his garbage/leaves on fire in the corner of his yard and then walk away from it. Good thing as it happened I just got done washing my car and had my Task Force Tips fire nozzle already hooked up. All I had to do was run my hose to the backyard. Fortunately all the trees and plants it burnt up were on his property, mine got away just a little singed. I should prolly rake all the fall leaves away from my house just in case he decides to burn the rest of my yard away.


PS. for any little children reading, always call the fire department. Do not try and put out a grass or brush fire without the proper training and equipment.

Like to see a picture of the nozzle you have. Neighbor sounds like a winner to start a fire with the wind and walk away.

This is my nozzle. There are many like it, but this one is mine. Task Force Tips D1024

Lets just say, I have the best squirt gun in the neighborhood.

You run the nozzle off of city water pressure or well pump pressure?

Normally well pump pressure, but today, well pump pressure, to a hose, to a power washer, to a hose, to the nozzle.

This thing has a lifetime warranty, and does everything from lightly watering plants, to throwing a stream of water 30 yards

I want one. Don't ask me why, I just do.

Time for a group buy from TFT for nozzles.

Time for a group buy from TFT for nozzles.

what do they cost?

 

[aclark]

Well, just got back from VW. Wasn't planning on buying, but somehow brought home a 2014 Passat TDI SE w/Sunroof in Night Blue Metallic with Titan Black interior. Has just about every feature that I want/need other than remote start and tinted windows. This thing is awesome, I might actually enjoy driving again.

 

[actaeon277]

Crap. Just took my mom to her GP. ER doc said on Friday that nothing was broken. GP took one look at her x-rays and told her that her sternum was cracked (which I suspected anyway).

Sorry to hear that.
So, what do they do for that?

After 2 times, I might be tempted to protect my side, and call 911 for his side.

The thing is, I am 911 for his side, well not technically the township I am a firefighter for, but I am a firefighter and I took an oath to protect people and property(the gist of the oath anyway).

Someone rep him for joining the VW club.

You might be protecting him better if he learns a lesson.

 

[chef larry]

what do they cost?

I'm not sure, but they are from Task Force tips in Valpo across the airport on RT 30 and I will call Hoosier fire in Valpo tomorrow for a price. Fire Dept. equipment and may be at least a hundred dollars and there is a nozzle in plastic also cheaper.

What about the Indiana law about open burning for a start? Is this still a big NO NO with DNR?

No open burning on public property, private is different. On private property you only have to worry about city, township, and county laws.
