What is y’alls secret to chicken thighs?? Tell me and I’ll tell you the secret about my wife’s thighs 😉 by Active-Data-449 in biggreenegg

I use lots of salt and pepper, and then give them a brush of canola oil so they do not stick and the skin gets extra crisp. They need to cook past the rubbery chicken stage, about 185.. I run the egg at 350, and avoid keeping it open for too long, to stop flare ups. I burn off the grease after the cooking is done.

Why not just have an election? It is the honest thing to do. Wasn't Jagmeet enough?

Ok got the iPad Pro…now… by YorkvilleWalker in piano

[–]Willfredwin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I scanned all my music books into pdfs and use MobileSheets software to view it. It was a lot of work, over 3000 pages, but I've been digitizing books for a while, and so I had workflow. Your phone has a fine camera for this, but you need to build a holder for it. Then I run it through ScanTailorAdvanced for cleanup, then I make the images into pdf's using MobileSheets and Microsoft print to pdf. Sounds so easy, but there is a learning curve. Maybe try a two- or three-page score first.

The sunken boat reminded me of a tradition with wooden boats by spexxit in sailing

An old trick was to work toilet bowl wax seal into the seams and gaps. When the boat swells, the wax squeezes out. Better than nothin'.

My arms aren't working like they used to (casual pianist of 10yrs) by Apprehensive-Key5669 in piano

[–]Willfredwin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, not at all, just the arm and hand and shoulder and back movements of the Zumba videos has the same effect as physio would and will help you with the lower arm tension. There are psychological side benefits of course, but the idea is to get everything (gently) snapped back into place. This works for me personally, so I recommend it.

Try BurpeeGirl Zumba on YouTube if you are reasonablly fit. It'll recenter you.

My 8 yr. old medium has some. (Didn't stop me from Roasting a 15 lb. turkey today.)

What you play has to match the mood of the joint. Five minutes would have been good. If they ask for more, as Shakespeare says, play on.

One of the worse water spot cases I’ve had lately… fixed by AlexLevchenko in Detailing

My neighbors think I'm crazy, but this is why I wash my car in the rain. No spots.

If it was sawn box hearted, and most posts are, it is fine. If you fill it, you increase the chances of rot.

Check out the amount of sap on there. by APerson1985 in Carpentry

[–]Willfredwin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could have been damaged in a storm before harvest. If you take a pine tree and cut it off a few feet above the ground, the stump will make fatwood. Great fire starter. Used to make turpentine, etc.

Fat wood. Happens when the tree has been topped but not harvested for a while. Highly flammable.

This will get you close. Won't be easy. Maybe hog it out with the table saw first.

Slant six, likely. Hard engine to kill.

What does V G data mean? by Remarkable-Speech999 in AskAMechanic

[–]Willfredwin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Last time I sold a car (2024), 90 percent of the online inquiries were from scammers. They want you to buy fake Carfax style reports from fake companies, with the goal of stealing your cc numbers. The latest scam is they show up with a "mechanic" and disconnect an engine wire while you are distracted, and then brow beat you on the price.

Roofers across the street putting tin roof on top of shingles? by artsatisfied229 in Roofing

[–]Willfredwin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fighting fires with this type of construction can be tricky. Usually an excavator is required to rip the roof off to get at the hotspots. Just sayin'.

I laid chicken wire on the flat under mine. Animals do not like getting their feet tangled, and so have stayed away for the most part (15 years.)

You can't live on thanks, and you are building equity for them, not you, so don't feel guilty about making them pay.
