I was wondering about you 2. I was away for awhile and when I came back — no mention.

I'd say that was your best "purchase." (not that she can be bought )

First time in my life I’ve paid for a dog. The girls got ahold of him and played dress up. He’s super macho otherwise.

Recently I got a big set of the Williams (snap on industrial brands) black handle screwdrivers. Holy smokes why didn't I get these years ago? Way better bite than the weras I replaced and far more durable so far.

Bought a replacement fuel tank for my F-550. E-bay purchase guarantied free Thur. delivery.
Thurs....nada. Fri.... nope. Get an e-mail that they don't know where the tank is. Do i want a refund or do i still want a tank? Send me a tank.
The following Fri. i come home from work and have not one but two fuel tanks on my door step.

The tank was a perfect fit and am happy with the purchase........but now i have to deal with returning the other tank.

7. Thank you. His name is Major, because my s/o said wow, he's a major horse.
Sold for 98k the last week of Keenland as a yearling. Didn't really have race speed, won his second outing but not much after (raced 6 times). He's too sweet, racers need fire. His canter, though, is impressive. Adoptotion fee was only $600. He had really nice training for 4 years with a lady who has too many fusions to ride any longer. He's only been with me a month, quite a change from my 14.3 Arab.

^^^ you'll probably find the solar system a little small. Go for a galaxy, just the right size. I missed out on the Milky Way unfortunately. So I went for a universe but it was too big for me.

I use this saw all year long, every year for the last 10, and save about $3000 on my heating bill each of those years. I finally figured out how to properly sharpen the chains for aggressive, long life. When you have a sharp chain, you feel like superman with this in your hands.

Best money I've spent in a long time. Use it every afternoon for family time.

AFAIK, true 240hz OLED is not yet widely available in a TV and (of course) will initially be stupid expensive. Fast motion (sports...) will be the technology's true advantage but like so many things is chasing 10/10ths.

I don’t do a lot of cutting down trees/logs. But I ended up getting a dewalt battery powered chainsaw. I’ll never use my gas one again unless the battery goes dead. I have 4 so very little chance of that happening. I was so impressed with the dewalt line that I bought the hedge trimmer. Weed wacker and contemplating the lawn mower. My yard is about 1/4 acre. So two batteries should do it. You just can beat the torque from DC power.

100% satisfied with my ego 56v trimmer as well, never going back to 2 smoke infernal combustion unless I get 20x larger lot. Makes trimming 100x more pleasant and plenty of power for my residential lot
