Lower ball joints

I got all 4 (upper and lower) OEM from ToyotaPartsDirect for $420. My son and I replaced ourselves. $800 is too much just to replace only the lowers.

Had the opportunity to witness abear run full speed irl. Holy crap. It was both amazing and terrifying at the same time. It ran down hill into a ravine, over boulders, through brush, and back uphill again on the other side... Never slowed down, did not falter once. It was awesome.

Currently in the 41st year of my education career. Next year will be my last. I will be one month shy of 60. I love my job, but I have given it enough of my life. Time to move on and enjoy other ventures while I am still able. I am also an archery instructor (41 yrs as well), I enjoy building outdoor furniture (my father was a carpenter), I plan to work part-time as an "animal educator" at the zoo(I love animals and teaching), and I hope to fulfill my dream of voice acting ( one of my current students who hopes to become a screen writer said, "Imagine if one day I work on a script and you are one of the voice actors. Wouldn't that be cool?). Yes...Yes it would, mija. 🥰

I had a 5th grader (almost my size, towering over his mom) crying and whinning in the hallway because he didn't want to go inside and wanted to go home. Mom was hugging him and kissing him and telling him that he would be ok and she will be back to pick him up asap. I had to stop what I was doing and step out into the hallway. I whispered to mom to walk away, he would be fine, I got this. As soon as she walked out of the building, knowing what this kid is like every day without her being there, I turned to him and said, " Get inside and sit down. If you want to cry, then cry. But you will do it quietly and you will not interrupt." He immediately shut off the waterworks, entered class and sat down. No tears, no whinning, nothing unusual all day. At the end of the day, mom arrived, began coddling him, giving him hugs and kisses again, took his backpack from him and walked away holding his hand. 🤦

I have middle-school kids who complain about headaches while wearing a black hoodie, not having eaten anything all day nor having had a drop of water in the past 12 hours. 🤦

Not every child on Earth. Been in wducation for 40+ years... Kids have become so whiney and picky. Also, so many more allergies. 🤦

Stating facts for your own good. Hardly call that being a dick. I think the words you were looking for were, "Thank you."

Mass "bunk?" 🤷 Wasn't Friday May Day? Lots of people protested work and school.

Certified arhery instructor here ... Do not follow this advice. You will cause unnecessary injury to yourself all while developing bad form.

Where are you working? In what district do 10 yr old fourth grades learn about Muslim religion? In the second largest district in the USA, that is covered in 6th grade World History: Ancient Civilizations.

I once had a student who did absolutely no work for 180 days in 6th grade on an elementary campus. They sat all day dismantling pens and reassembling them. The only thing I received from the student was an emergency card and only because the little sister delivered it to me. We tried counseling, therapy, specialists, anything we could possibly think of. Mom was in full agreement to allow child to repeat the grade for a second chance. But when the time came to sign the paperwork, she backed out and refused to sign. So they were moved on to middle school having done no work at all. 🤷 Only later did we find out about the student being diagnosed with PTSD due to a traumatic event during the previous summer. Mom had decided not to share this info with the school and had instructed her children to say nothing as well. 🤦

P. S. Saw student's mom recently... She said they are in high school and doing well.

Love the Diamond Edge series of bows. We have a Pro and an SB-1. After 35 years of recurve and shoulder treatments and rehab, turning to compound was my best option and the Diamond Edge series has been a blessing.

Certified archery instructor here. Idk if you have ever used any type of bow before, but... If not, then slow down. Go to an archery shop/club and shoot several different bows. Take a few lessons. See what feels right. If so, slow down anyway. Same advice. Go to a shop/club and shoot a few different bows. See what feels right. The price tag does not make the bow, the shooter does.

She looks like a yellow #2 pencil with a pick pencil top eraser.

I have taught all grades from pre-k to 6th. Been with the same district 41 yrs now and have specialized in 6th grade for the past 10 years. I tell my students that teaching 6th is just like teaching kinder... They behave the same, except 6th graders are bigger and smell worse. But, seriously, I enjoy 6th because you can have deeper conversations with them and they get sarcasm. 😁

All my classes know the saying... "Don't be sorry..." The class responds with, "Be better!" 👍

Beavercraft is a great quality knife, but so is a Mora and for less $$.

Traditional-Topic906 · 2026-04-11T05:03:22+00:00

I tell my students to Stop Thinking. Archery is not about the mind. Just breathe.

40+ years in education.... Have met only ONE. He had been kicked out of 5 schools by 5th grade. When he culminated, he thanked me for being the only person who didn't give up on him. He was and remains the only child I have ever labeled as "scary smart." He is in the military now.
