Seasoning is often the key. That, plus cooking method and the judicial use of fresh herbs can make a big difference. Take an ordinary boneless, skinless chicken breast. Throw it in a skillet. Not...

You're welcome, Ray.

It's The HAB Theory. By Allan W. Eckert.

We collect rain water in two 1100 gallon, above-ground, polyethylene tanks, from gutters on a metal barn roof. We then pump the water to a 550 gallon tank, which is connected to a pressure pump. Ours...

Thanks, NorthTexas. I have indeed been to the TVLB site, and am awaiting the list of properties for sale, which should be out by September 1. It'll be interesting, as I have no idea what the minimum...

NorthTexas,

Yes, we finally got a definitive answer from the Land Board: we'll have to wait for the auction, which we were hoping to avoid, but don't really mind having to participate in. Can you...

Pat,

Regarding wasps, I don't mind the ones I see, it's the ones I don't see who sting me. In the past two years I've been stung twice. On both occasions, my arm turned red and swelled to...

What can I say, I just like to live dangerously! With my luck I'll get stung, for the first time (by a scorpion, that is), this week. /forums/images/icons/tongue.gif

Egon,

You don't wanna know. Believe me! /forums/images/icons/frown.gif

Actually, I just slip on my flip flops. /forums/images/icons/tongue.gif

Well, we've had no luck contacting the owner, so it looks like the auction is our best option. Might not be too bad. Shoot, I wouldn't want to be my neighbor. /forums/images/icons/smile.gif

I just use a size 8EEE boot. Of course if they're on the ceiling, I use the swat-stomp method - knock it down with a fly swatter, then stomp. But then we don't have carpeting...

Sure wish I could...

Well, that would work except the largest body of water around here is a bird bath...

You guys are sick! Everyone knows that a driver is the club of choice!

An unimproved 10-acre lot next to our property has evidently been repossessed by the Texas Veterans Land Board – a sign has been posted stating that it will be for sale in October. I...

Actually, my Brother-in-Law held the pitchfork. We then posed for an "American Gothic" photo...

I have to admit that I'd rather roast peppers on the grill, but sometimes you've just gotta use your...

Shoot, I've roasted peppers with mine. Stuck em on a pitchfork and fired away! It's amazing what a few hundred thousand BTUs will do... /forums/images/icons/cool.gif

Okay, so I lack imagination.

Follow GatorBoy's advice. You'll learn more on Tractorbynet than anywhere else on the 'net, and you won't have any salesmen try to talk you into buying something you don't really need.

Well, the good news is that there were no "pocket parts." The bad news is that I couldn't see anything wrong (no loose screws, gaping holes, etc.). Oh, well...looks like I'll have to get a repair...

I like roasted poblano peppers, sauteed onions, goat cheese and fresh whole milk mozzarella on mine, and sometimes, when the need for meat arises, a smidgen of finely diced proscuitto or bacon...

Thanks again, Bird! The picture itself is helpful. I'll let you know how it goes.

Thanks, Bird. Looks like I'll take it apart. I can just imagine wondering what to do with "these extra parts" once I get it back together... /forums/images/icons/laugh.gif

Help! I can't figure out what's wrong. I have a 26 gallon spray tank, powered by a 12v battery. One of these:...

I've got an Omni filter. It works just fine, but the one on my system (the previous owner installed it) doesn't have a pressure release valve, which makes changing it a hassle. I've just bought a GE...
