Glad you came back for a visit.
Yieppie! Wife finally agreed to cancel directv. Switching to hulu, already have netflix, and prime.
Still waaaaayyyyy cheaper than directv.
Now I need to add another AP to the network snd a new hulu box. Luckily I planned for another AP on the ubiquity network.
UAP-AC, just need to figure out which one to roll with.
Why the hiatus?
More specific than it made me miss it...please. I see so many reoccurring names in old posts who've all but disappeared & Ive always wanted to know...
Yay. Did it several months back & I don't miss it.Quote:

I slowly sold off my reloading gear and the more I hung out here, the sadder I got because you all could go shooting and I couldn't. I decided I didn't need that kind of negativity in my life, so I went cold turkey.Quote:

It's a family site so I won't press to your meaning & verbiage in the very last sentence.

There... better?
You misunderstood, I wasn't asking for an amend.
Meh, it's been a while since I've been here, so better safe than sorry. I'd hate to be banned over a post in the Post Whore thread...
For that would have to be a most egregious post indeed.
Sometimes I can see echos of people who have banned. When someone quotes them for a response... I've even seen a few of those moments scrubbed clean too.
There. As close to immortal as one can be without the aforementioned & now amended 'bite'Quote:

Some of the physics he and HB used to discuss made my head hurt and I have a pretty strong background in math for a redneck.

I'm re-orienting my career towards the engineering, specifically R&D, hence the grad school.
BC that is indeed nice. Kids and spine and grad school eqyals no sleep.
So are you now our resident telescope expert?
Definitely not an expert by any means, but I've worked on at least half a dozen telescopes measuring 1-m up to 3.5-m.
Now I pretty much just design and build instruments for the telescopes. I much prefer the designing/building aspect of astronomy than the data-reduction aspect.
Yey, got the noped started. Not a spelling error, it has no pedals therefore noped.
I think the 90 deg turn on the coil wire was causing problems, and also the float got stuck. Pulled elbow and did a little dielectic grease. Pulled carb and found nothing there, so maybe a small piece of dirt from the tank. Put it together, did a running start and it fired up and ran. Will need more tuning but at least I dont have to hunt down exotic CDI parts.
Next will be clean the tank, get reserve setting wirking, then clean and get oul injection fixed, oh and need an air filter sponge.
I might actually keep this thing, or maybe not...
All the differential components have been media blasted and painted awaiting the return of the diffs from the rebuild shop. The nerf bars are still at powder coating, and tomorrow I'll get the t-case out and blasted before it gets rebuilt next week.Quote:

Awsome. I want to add raspi control and remote viewing to my cheap meade telescope. It's always way too cold outside when the sky is clear in winter.Quote:

BC !!!!
Holy hell, Man! Good to see ya. Sorry to hear about the back issues and I hope that all gets gooder soon.
Wasn't that you that posted the video cutting out the attic for the fan, and you stuck your head out when you shoved the debris down?
I remember that being particularly hilarious.
Hey ya OBC... er should I say OBHC. [Eek3]
When did you pick up the 'H'?
Thanks, gettin' better day by day!
HA! Yea, that was me! I deleted it from youtube, but I'll see if I can find it and re-upload it for the new Hos!Quote:

It started as a nickname that rotated up to username as well. Everyone's always known me as obc anyways, so it's all good.
I remember laughing so hard at that, it was funny as hell.Quote:

Its official. BC & OBC both made it so...
Word of the day: Suck
Like peewee's playhouse
Might hit up the local hood fair tonight.....get a dog/burger, beer, live music, and stuff.
Yes..... "Suck, don't blow.....that's just an expression".Quote:
