Anyone do wood mechanical models?

I've gotten hooked on these laser cut metal and wood models that are on the market...I prefer the ones that do something once their together...walk, run...some really neat automobiles and truck kits...No glue, unless you break
something...Snap together..and they stay that way after I've played with them...Steel springs and rubber bands are the primary source of movement..although I just finished up one that has a tiny solar panel on it...Do a google on wood mechanical models and you'll find a bunch of different brands..ugear..rokr..wood city....Excellent for the parents and kids to work on together...This is the one with the solar panel...

Big day today...huh? (grin)

Maybe the beginning of the end for stumpy...
I dunno...been disappointed so many times..the collusion investigation should have put cheetox out on the road, kickin a beer can, talking to itself...But with a winger (gop) club, bigger than the democrats...Was there ever any doubt Mueller's investigation would take it down? Is that club still too big? Will public opinion, during the run-up to 2020 reduce mitch the bitch and his band of hard core 30%ers influence? Guess we'll find out...

An impeachment net is fast closing around President Donald Trump, with the House of Representatives poised to cast its highly symbolic first vote Thursday in the Democratic bid to oust the President.

A domino effect of developments that appeared to threaten Trump emphasized the momentum of the impeachment drive on the eve of the vote, amid unsuccessful efforts by Republicans on Capitol Hill to gum up the process.

Its debatable..


Read an article by a kc sports guy saying even if the chefs loose at denver,...the season is still not lost.
Kc has a lot of injuries, including the 2018 mvp...I predict the chiefs will have the same problems with
the broncos...stopping the run and keeping mahomes alive...

Flex...soft dentures...


Ok to post this here?


I get tired of my gums having to "nest " with dentures..Kinda uncomfortable until I chew a little bit...I don't wear them except to eat..
Looking at the ads for flex or soft dentures...Some of the dentists I've talked with aren't too crazy about them..Problems with
the gums/jaw bone..I think they'd be great, if they live up to the advertisements...Anyone have them? Like them? thanks...

My craigslist ad shows up in the main category

farm and garden services....

https://wichita.craigslist.org/fgs/d/rose-hill-2019-clean-praire-hayround/6978824256.html

But if I type "hay"..I can't find it...but all the other "hay" ads show up...which is where I need
my ad to appear...

I've scoured the help pages but nothing defines why other ads for only hay show up and mine
only shows up in the main category...along with pages of farm equipment, which I do not want...

This is a fyi on farming praire hay...


I had a custom hay guy cut and bale my hay...small qty..20 large bales. Like before it is done on a share basis...70 - 30 on selling and the bales are removed in short order..last time was 3 weeks..
This year he cut and baled but has left it in the field since june...which isn't part of the agreement..So I want to sell it to get it off my property and then reimburse the hay guy..

This question to an online attorney site and the response..

Judge Bill K ret. Lawyer

As you say, it is your land and your hay. You will not get in any trouble for selling that hay and either having the seller pick it up or delivering it to him. You can subsequently send the share that you owe to the custom cutting people. Incidentally, I grew up on a farm in southeastern Colorado, So I know about these issues

I was kinda worried about doing this but the judges answer makes sense

Wanna buy a boat?




Paul Allen's 414-foot yacht, home to A-list parties, is selling for $325 million.

All it will cost to buy this gilded behemoth of the seas is $325.5 million.

Never mind that the “Octopus,” one of the world’s largest yachts, costs more than four times what the billionaire Allen once paid for the entire Portland Trail Blazers. This boat has partied with A-list celebs and explored the ocean depths. Here’s what you, lucky new owner, will be getting:

The first rule of buying a boat is that one elevator isn’t enough. There must be a second elevator only available to its owner. The Octopus passes this test, along with an entire private deck that includes a bar, hot tub and al fresco dining area. That extra personal space is key when you’re accessing one of two helipads atop the ship.

Perhaps the new owner can invite Mick Jagger back aboard for an impromptu music sesh. That’s what Allen did when Jagger used the ship’s recording studio to make some tracks in 2011.

The Octopus, which cost Allen $200 million to launch in 2003, is no stranger to the party circuit, having annually hosted soirees with actors, filmmakers and supermodels during the Cannes Film Festival. No need to worry about making the Kardashians double up on rooms: there are 13 guest cabins that can accommodate up to 26.

Other amenities include a swimming pool with adjacent bar, basketball court, movie theater, spa, library and a glass-bottomed observation lounge for spying on some fish.

As for your 63-member crew, which you’ll need to pay handsomely, there are another 30 cabins.

Bitch whine..again...

So I'm trying out this 4g experience..have 50$/50gig..month plan..coolspot surf..When it runs its great..>2.0 mbps, which doesn't compare to the vir/mbl .75 mbps. I've done the chat/tech calls..this is boost mobil..They've done nothing to improve my signal..done the resets, etc..Its down now..using vir/mbl to do this...From what I'm reading the 4g signal has some problems around the country?

May try verizon out..don't know if they have a prepay plan. They are supposed to be the best for signal strength..
Wondered if my slow speeds were from the ac wireless adapter, but the tablet has the same problem.

Will there be any difference between..


the tower signal I get from virgin mobile for broadband2go,(3G),now.
And the signal I will get from same, when I switch over to a 4G signal
using a wireless iphone?

Looks involved...


I may have to give it a try to get my fire tablet to run a google play app...ophelia gps...


Rooting is the process of allowing users of smartphones, tablets and other devices running the Android mobile operating system to attain privileged control (known as root access) over various Android subsystems.


Anyone ever tried to do this...?
