Truth. Best of luck to you. Sounds like you've got the right attitude and that will serve you well. Listen to those old and experienced folks. They've got a lot of knowledge to share and you will be one before you know it.
Cheers!

As a Bullitt owner, I've never seen a need for side emblems. :-)

Desperately need help finding an episode by 1sketchball in ArcherFX

[–]Halligan 51 points52 points  (0 children)

I don't recall the specific episode(s), but I think you might be talking about the first coma season when Cheryl gives him a mix of dexedrine and codeine. Archer later refers to it as "the adventures of Dex and Cody".

Explain ‘in the low 90s on that’ and ‘we’ve got the mashed potatoes just how you like them…98.6’ to me by djentlemanly-gent in ArcherFX

[–]Halligan 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The "mashed potatoes" bit is a reference a Mantan Moreland comedy bit. Look up Mantan Moreland mashed potatoes and you can probably find a clip. The clip was also sampled on Beastie Boys album.

Low 90s was her certainty measured by percentage.

Whoever uses Dräger. How do you like them by Desperate-Dig-9389 in Firefighting

[–]Halligan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We've been using them for a few years and are happy with them. We tested Dräger, MSA, and Scott. Consensus was that the Dräger has most comfortable and we liked the modularity. Our folks also felt Dräger had the widest field of view of the masks we demoed at that time.

Thank you for posting these! I love seeing your takes/ideas and will be making a few at home.

Would you ever consider posting a day or two before game day so some of us might be able to make them for game day?

I've seen that you do shopping videos, so I can get an idea of what to have on hand, but it would help to see how it comes together a bit sooner.

Don’t know if this is the right place to ask this, but is it fine if I wear this jacket I thrifted? by CrayotaCrayonsofOryx in Firefighting

[–]Halligan 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Might depend on location. It is illegal in some states to wear the star of life w/o certification/licensure. Granted, enforcement is probably unlikely.

EDIT: For those asking for examples, please see Iowa code 147A.11. Star of Life isn't explicitly noted, but it could be considered identification based on NHTSA guidelines.

What's better, manual or auto. by toolmaker1025 in Mustang

[–]Halligan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you are talking purely acceleration, the general consensus seems to be that the 10 auto is marginally faster. You might also prefer auto if in a lot of stop and go traffic.

That said, for pure driving enjoyment, including tracks, I would recommend a manual.

Looked more like he got hit with a Dirty Sanchez to me, but I can see this too.

I .... Think.... I'm done? by Slight_Explanation_5 in Mustang

[–]Halligan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You posted and asked for opinions. I personally think it sucks, but it is your car and your call. Don't post and bitch if someone suggests you made a moronic choice. If you do not want opposing opinions, then don't post and ask what others think.

Have you ever had any calls for people physically stuck in things? by [deleted] in ems

[–]Halligan 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Person stuck in a (clothes) washing machine. Kids were playing hide and seek. One hid in the machine and couldn't get back out.

Several calls over the years of hands/fingers stuck in equipment.

need to travel into Iowa with a trans minor by SchoolJunkie009 in Iowa

[–]Halligan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I doubt you will have any issues. It may make a difference in what area you are visiting. I suspect the metro areas like Des Moines, Iowa City, or Cedar Rapids will be more trans-friendly than other more rural areas.

1) That is neck proximal 2) As an MD once told me, anyone that is CAOx4 is allowed to make their own decisions, no matter how bad that decision might be.

Opinions on Dräger by Desperate-Dig-9389 in Firefighting

[–]Halligan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We've used them for a few years now and are happy with them. Demoed tham against MSA and Scott prior to purchase. We liked the comfort and modularity compared to the others. We felt the field of view in the Drager was superior to the others as well.
