    took my dad, son 1 and son 2 over to our woodpile, split a trailer load, stacked about a cord more over there, maybe have about 8 cord stacked and split. we maybe use a trailer load in our basement stove. takes the edge off on colder days when we are home (which isn't that often)

    Tried this new stuff, liked it, and have ordered more.

    Skinny spaghetti.

    As half a diabetic, I had to give up pasta years ago. Now I have a big plate of it right here as I type.

    I've tried a lot of pasta substitutes, and they all sucked. This one, first try, felt like 70% of the way to being the pasta experience... good enough for me. It's also pre-cooked in pouches.

    I checked the ingredients to make sure they weren't slipping some powdered crickets past me LOL... it's made from some kind of Chinese root.

    Anyone diabetic or going low carb, this stuff is pretty good.

    So I failed calculus in high school, but that's close to being a 500 gallon tank, not a 1000'er

    I quit testing at all 4 years ago, A1C under 6. Beer is a staple, pasta not so much. I only ate 3 candy bars this week, and half a pack of OREO's

    Radius squared x pi (3.1459) x length of the straight side of the tube. Will give you volume, then convert to gallons and x wpg of LPG. This will not give to the volume of the round ends but it will be close. V=ha

    There are some good volume calculators on the web, used them all the time to measure the fluid capacity of various size pipe runs.

    I got my range cleaned up, repainted the steel and moved a couple around. Did some long range shooting with the 308, just to let my neighbors know I am still alive. Man I love to ring steel with that rifle. May do some AR work today and work in the shed a bit. Tomorrow we will vote early and get back to Ten Oaks, lock the gate and watch the fun. If Trump wins I am going to be laughing my ass off watching the liberal media's heads explode. Keep an eye on the middle east, we sent more B52's and a missile sub into the area the last few days.

    Winter storm warning here for tomorrow. Possible 6 to 12 inches of heavy wet snow with associated trees down and power outages. So today I will get all my winter stuff out and ready. Tow strap and shovel in the car. Get out snow shovels. Pre position an extension cord so I can power the furnace from the genny. I did all my winter prep work on the tractor yesterday, including tire chains, so all good there. Just sit back and watch the games begin! Fun to watch the idiots trying to drive in the first snowfall with bald summer tires.

    Thank you! All well here...I'm prepared enough that 6 hours, or 6 days, of no power won't be an issue!

    peace...
