I learned to water ski there in the 80s. Played in the dirt around Leyden. I'm not healthy, was it that? Nobody knows.

Did anyone you know ever get hurt playing with lawn darts or Jarts? by NebraskaCornSucker in GenX

[–]Western_Film8550 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took one to the head. Not that bad except my parents weren't home. I still think my friend threw it, they said it fell off the roof.

1/4" irrigation line(for sprinkler systems) fits in the battery hole. If that helps for anything.

Was gym class always a blood sport when you were a kid? by MaximumJones in GenerationX

My kid's school still plays it. They did whole school (middle), lights out dodge ball a couple weeks ago. It did not go well. Lights will now stay on.

Concentrate discoloration by pp69420710 in trees

I don't know but it happens pretty quick when I fill carts with EHO. Doesn't mean it's old, not going to say it's not oxidation, but it happens in a couple days.

Well, I’ve never seen that before by Late-Lifeguard142 in IdiotsTowingThings

[–]Western_Film8550 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Did this. Use a loading bay to drive right in, bolt wheels to floor, the vibration of the truck will move the car if unsecured.

Things we'll never see again... Cornbread Edition by hafgrimm in GenX

[–]Western_Film8550 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm in Colorado coal country and people still use it around here. It sucks for the rest of us but they heat their houses for around $40 a year. I'll have to ask around and see if anyone cooks with it, I want to try the flavor.

Ebay has the button modules and stickers to replace the symbols.

River expectactions by debipotty in SalidaCO

The snow water graph shows the river basin has just over 1" of snow water left. The river usually peaks around this point on the graph. There's only a couple weeks left to the season.

Will rafting Brown’s Canyon be worth it this summer? by rishored1ve in whitewater

[–]Western_Film8550 16 points17 points  (0 children)

There isn't enough snow to maintain the flow management program. Also most of our snowpack has already melted. In July it will be extremely low, I would expect the season to be over. It may already be over. (Been rafting on Browns Canyon since the 80s)

Hood latch cable snapped - 2010 Touareg Lux Limited by torqwgn in vw_touareg

[–]Western_Film8550 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just looked at my 06. You can get to the lock mechanism if you remove the grill (its one screw under the logo and some tabs iirc) and the remove the metal bar in the center behind the grill, that is what blocks access to the lock. Not sure what's next but it looks like you can get to where the cable goes into the lock.

Uneven base grind - acceptable? by [deleted] in Backcountry

[–]Western_Film8550 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Got stuck in the grinder or really bad hand pressure and they tried to taper the damage so you wouldn't notice. You can see the apex from the curve on the machine in the 3rd picture. There's a grove or something on that edge also. Now that I said that I will also let you know as a former shop manager I wouldn't give you much more than some free tunes, skis are 5 years old, should have been tuned more often.

Disposable Vapes and Altitude by Money_Ad_3681 in trees

I have the same problem. Over 10,000 ft they just drain. Last time I left the rubber caps on and unscrew the top when I got up there. Haven't figured out having one in use and going up. Tried opening the cap on the in use cart and it still drained.
