Hmmmm very interesting.

From the videos it's obvious that the county does not care to explain their position. It's a typical county government land grab. The residents be damned. This is exactly why I think that all government MUST be downsized. I think that all taxes for these government bureaus, teams...

Thanks for starting this thread bbh. We have not had bees for about 15 years and have been talking about starting over again. I would like to try a TBH design.

Yup! Fasten your seatbelts.

Do you guys think that all companies are supposed to be small?

Doesn't that irk you to no end? We went to a Bluegrass Festival on Saturday (and froze to death:)) and one of the bands was a woman and a man who seemed a little bit like carry-overs from the '60 hippy movement. Anyway they were very good and very entertaining. In between songs she told us a...

Are you guys talking about a jar of wax with a wick? I'm not familiar with the "container candle" part.

Hi sandy and welcome to the forums. The glass should do a great job of protecting the peel-n-stick and keeping tiny food particles and harsh cleaners from getting on the vinyl. Will you be able to lift the glass to clean under?

When my son was in the Boyscouts we taught them how to make this lamp. It works very well and is excellent in emergency situations. Due to the olive oil wanting to smoke you will have to keep the active end of the wick very short and therefore the light output is very low. But in an emergency...

That's got to be one of the dumbest laws I've ever heard of. What difference does it make if I allow the water to run out of my downspout onto the ground or route it through my rain barrel and onto the ground. I know, I know big brother is trying to be all things to all people but they DO NOT...

Can you name some of those states? I've never heard of such a silly thing. My state doesn't own the rain and never will. But on the other hand the EPA and the stupid elected officials are unbelievable. :)

That generator is a nice one. They are very loud in comparison with the newer and smaller Japanese models on the market today. But it would be wonderful in an emergency. I'm sure the auctioneer will allow you to start it and run it. Take a 1500W hair dryer with you and plug it in to the...

Do your ducks talk to you? Constantly?

That's pretty much all there is to it. I just peel, core, and remove the seeds on about 25 lb. of mixed apples. I sort through the peelings for the best pieces and toss them back into the kettle. I don't like to have all the blemishes and scabs in there. I like to use our large cast iron...

The first time that I got 8 eggs in one day from the 6 chickens I thought someone was playing a trick on me. I knew it couldn't be DW 'cause she can't get out to the coop (very easily anyway) and we don't have any neighbors within a half mile. So I figured it HAD to be these 6 goofy chicks...

Update: 9/29/2011 We got the car back last Thursday and it's like new. Jeff, the volunteer mechanic, dug into the engine/transmission as promised and showed me a small piece of internal linkage that was keeping the tranny from shifting all the way. A small chunk of the casting had chipped...

Thanks FF.

Hi Leta. Harvesting rain water can be as simple or as extravagant as you wish. Since we live on a small farm we have several roof surfaces where we can harvest rain water. For esthetic reasons we do not have rain barrels on our house downspouts but we do have them on 7 other downspouts here...

When you save chicken bones do you only save raw bones while you're preparing the meat to be cooked? Or do you also save bones from fried or baked or grilled chicken parts that have been eaten? Yuk, that sounds bad doesn't it!

Can you guys teach me how to make fermented salsa? Thanks.
