Talking about beer. Does anybody out there like Pumpkin beers? I love them. I am headed up to a beer store in Boone, NC (Peabody's) to get some great beer tomorrow. I can't wait.

Hey Kevin, have you ever dabbled with sausage making? I have been doing some research and I think I am ready to make my first batch.

No, no, no and NO!

This is an excerpt from an MSN article, Ten things you should never buy used


Car seats

A car seat that's been in one accident may not protect your child in another. And damaged car seats aren't uncommon; a survey commissioned by Sainsbury's Bank in England discovered one in 10 car seats currently in use in that country had been involved in an accident.

Brand-new car seats can often be purchased for as little as $50, and safety technology tends to improve with each year, said Denise and Alan Fields, parents and authors of "Baby Bargains." That makes getting a new one pretty much a no-brainer.

Exception: You're getting the car seat from a friend or relative whom you'd trust with your child's life, because that's what you're doing. Still, check with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to make sure the model you're getting hasn't been recalled.

Regardless of whether you buy new or used, have an expert check your work to make sure the seat is installed correctly. The NHTSA has a list of free inspection sites at its Web site.

Totally agree Smalls, in fact where I live, before you get to leave the hospital they inspect the car seat and run the serial numbers to see how old it is, has it ever been in an accident, ect and if it doesn't pass the inspection, you can't leave until you get another car seat.

Car seats have to be purchased new IMHO, I mean your kid is going to cost you crazy amounts of money, whats another $50?

Sounds like the voice of experience......



Well, I'm off THP. Going out for a night of walleye fishing. We usually stay out til midnight or so, and the full (or almost) moon will make the fishing good.

Until Tomorrow,

Well, that didn't happen. Lake was up all the way over the launch and overturned some of the docks and was 30' into the parking lot. So we grabbed my friend and she and I went for ice cream instead. And now I get to THP lol

Is this "big" maintenance that is going on or just stuff that we won't really see?

Yikes - talk about opposites. No rain here all summer and our 2 boats are in the boat house in slings at the Lakehouse with nothing but sand underneath them. Made for a sucky summer at the Lakehouse!!!


Tappin' from my iPad!
 
All I know is what was in the thread on it.

It was so bad a whole recreational park and tons of lakeside houses were underwater, as well as probably flooding the island that is in the middle. It has been an insane last 2 weeks.

That's terrible. In the big picture - no water is much better than too much when it gets to that point.

I will try to find a video that does justice to just how bad it has been. Give me a few....
 
It's been this bad. This is NOT where I live personally, but I have many friends in this exact area. I was unaffected by the flooding due to living on a hill...
