The brass radiators do pay better than copper / aluminum.

I don't know about the other things. I've only seen one or two brass radiators in the time i've been scrapping.

Well ... there's the internal reality. That's what's going on inside your head.

Then ... there's the external reality. That's the reality of the world around you.

It's best if the two are...

I get what you are saying about programming in the media. I notice it as well. It's a hard call. I don't think it's all bad. Some of those calling the shots have a vision of a better world. A place...

Whew boy .... you don't want to say that too loud in this day and age. The outside world has changed a lot since you were a child.

Stop and think about it. You get an old car sitting out in the...

I dunno ... i don't think you can tell much about people from watching tv. You would come away with the wrong idea because TV is a fiction ... for the most part. Even reality tv is staged and...

I hear ya bro. Ain't none of us getting any younger. I suppose i could retire if i wanted but i like work. Still ... it's not like when i was younger. Nine hours a day is about my limit now. Not...

It's just different worlds is all. They're pretty hardcore about the work ethic around heeyah. It's part of our culture. It's either keep up or get out of the way.

I was talking with a young...

Usually ... the owners of different vending machines rent space within a store or just outside the storefront. It's possible that the owner of the redbox machine didn't pay their rent. It might even...

That's kind of a red flag. If the person hiring you to do the job doesn't have the keys then they probably aren't the owner of the machine. It's someone else's property.

My personal preference for dealing with the lock would be to cut the exposed part of the lock off with a 4" angle grinder equipped with a thin cutting wheel. I would tend to guess that it's just a...

It's a bit of a different situation here. I've got about an acre of lawn to mow so i really need a riding lawn tractor for that job. We might go through seven cord of softwood firewood over the...

It's a little different for me. I worked with them in the trades for decades ... you see ? I learned early on as an apprentice ... that you can't do the job if you don't have the tool.

To give...

Me .... i've got a busy weekend ahead at work. It's spring weather here. The days are sunny and it's energized everyone to start spring cleaning. We moved over 26 tons of trash. 3 tons of recycling,...

I try to be choosy about what i bring home as well. My greatest weakness is tools. I was in the trades for over 30 years so they have a special meaning for me. The thing is that i'm to an age now...

Well .... what you might try to understand is that it's not all about you.

You asked about the hazard of the job. I explained that it's a people problem that is best to avoid.

Someone once...

Love what you are doing and you will never work a day in your life. :)

The hazard of the job is the temptation to bring things home. It's a gradual process but over time your property becomes a junkyard. I've seen this happen soooo many times.

I've got a friend of...

I'm a student of human nature as well. I go out there in the everyday world and work with all different kinds of people while i'm serving my community. You learn a lot that way. The pickers down on...

I'm just being straight up with you CD. NinjaGal came in asking for advise on how to do a demo job. You weren't being very helpful.

Funny story: I was down to the parts store yesterday and i ran...

I see what you are saying in that regard. I can also see your point about them being a people who you are not supposed to talk about or criticize. I run afoul of it every so often even though i bear...

Okay ... so you are saying it's a conspiracy between Santa Clause and the Easter Bunny to blind everyone to the truth and take over the world ?

It was a joke CD.

I was playfully poking fun at you.

They turn them into sex toys ?

Again ... awfully vague & mysterious talk there hoss. Magical thinking ?

If someone is sitting there as king of the world .... it's terribly hard to imagine that anything some commoner has to say...

I dunno CD. You're pretty vague. People sometimes do that when they're posturing. I've seen it more with people who would like to be a religious or cult leader. You know ... play the old mysterious &...
