NWI INGO General Thread #27 - Fresh Pink Air On US-30 smells like...

[Snapdragon]

Last week my BIL passed away and his wife would like to get rid of his gun collection. Not sure how to do this and open for suggestions. Not sure what there is as he was a hunter and DU member.

Sorry to hear, Larry.

Put together a list. - Step one. We have done this many times at the club for wives and relatives of shooters. We post the inventory list at both of the ranges you'll get a good audience of "targeted" buyers.

Sorry to hear this CL, was he an Indiana resident? that would make your life really easy, first get a list, prices and ask here. When T's dad passed, we sold 90% of his collection (that we or family didn't keep) on INGO, over 100 guns. First right of refusal went to this group, then we went to classifieds.

Medium-rare/medium ribeye (that's falling apart since there was a big chunk of fat in the middle), Arby's frozen fries in the air fryer, and fresh cherry tomatoes from a friend. I baked a cake that I will tear into in a little while.

That is the best part!

Not quite the same, but I'm working on it. Vanilla bean cake with buttercream frosting. Man, is it sweet. Almost too sweet for me.

Thanks, Tom. I only had two pieces. I froze half the cake for another time. That way I'll eat smaller pieces if there is not so much to finish.

Mowed my yard and the neighbor's real quick after looking at the radar and forecast. Naturally, it fizzled out. Oh well.

They've been saying thunderstorms every day for at least the past week. Nothing.

Rained here earlier.
And storm clouds still overhead

We got about 15-20 drops and then the sun came out again.

Makes jedi wonder if whatever the elevator was doing triggered it via magnetic interference.

We are all carrying around those "bombs" per say with the cellphones we carry. Granted the battery is smaller vs the e-bike but it's the same concept.

There are videos of iphones and android phones doing the same thing. Heck at work several years ago it occured with an iPhone. Luckly while the lady froze at her desk when the phone was on fire, a co-worker used a clipboard and ran with the burning phone to the washroom to use the sink water to stop it. Smoke everywhere that day.

Just down the hall from my son's office, a co-worker had a tablet just sitting on his desk and it started to smoke and then flame. All he could do was flip it out the door into the hall. It didn't explode but it burned very vigorously for a while. It burned the carpeting and made smoke everywhere so they all had to leave the area.

Makes me worry about all the things around my house that have lithium batteries - especially anything chinese manufactured.

The package arrived today.
Package 1 of 1.

It should of been 2 items.
One in 1/2" size and one in 3/4" size.
Only the 1/2 " size was in the package.


Had to contact home depot via their text AI support and they will issue a store credit so I can order the other tool.

Here is a new fear for you to unlock.




Tesla car on fire underwater in the lake.
The batteries blew up and even underwater the fire was on going.

12-hour bump. Good morning y'all.

Starting to rethink my two electric bikes in the garage. Lithium fires are some scary stuff.

You have to suffocate the fire for quite a while to put them out.

Well I officially joined the old man's club this weekend, I'm 40, life is over.

Wife planned a quick trip for the two of us to Kansas City for the weekend. Went to Power & Light, had some sushi, took a brew bus tour, had some BBQ, got to hang out with my college roommate, went to a Royals game and got to deliver the game ball and see a Cubs WIN, found a great Italian spot, and drank way too much the whole weekend. Now back to reality today, man this inbox is filled up.

Don’t do anything you or his family will regret! Hard to get stuff back.
