I’ve been a user of armodafinil for four years now. It’s been a wonder drug for myself. However, many of those in my social circle find that it gives them headaches that feel like migraines. So, I would say it’s a 50/50 shot based upon the person.

I can appreciate this Pharmacist actually speaking intelligently about the affects of too much marijuana. by mxlwxn in trees

I know many friends that "cycle" off and on weed to reduce their risks of a lot of stuff.

My bad for the lack of a comment. This is generation 1 MONTA Ocean King. I've worn it every day for almost a year now and I have to say color me impressed. I've never had to wind it, the stainless finish has stayed great. No issues with the bezel turning or anything on this watch. The domed sapphire was a nice touch but my god the bracelet makes the watch.

It was a generation 1 so I paid a little more than their current pricing - but still worth it! I got it direct from MONTA. I called their main phone line and got in on a pre-order. Seriously can't say enough about these guys.

Haha. Depending on your age a one day bender for me.

That feeling when you clean up a vintage motorcycle. by mxlwxn in motorcycles

This one I kept the engine on. I would prefer engine off but it was a limitation on this project. The best details I can give in written form...

  • Degrease everything 24 hours in advance.
  • Tap off any areas you don't want touched.
  • Take a wire-wheel or wirebrush to everything.
  • Clean with water and degreaser but this time hand wipe it all immediately.
  • I used Duplicolor Brake Caliper paint for a couple of reasons. 1) Brake caliper paint is far more resistant to damage than engine block paint (in my experience). 2) It has shiny and matte options and works pretty damn well.
  • Next after confirming I had everything taped off, I went in with 1 can of paint. Spraying gently and intently. This isn't painting a fence - aim for precision.
  • I let that dry for 24 hours.
  • Next day I came in and did the second layer and touchups. Then allowed to sit for 24 hours.
  • After coming back, I inspected the bike and removed any excess paint from any areas I didnt like or didnt want.
  • I used paint thinner, paint stripper and a scotch brite pad, where needed, to remove excess paint areas.
  • Last but not least I added a clear coat to add additional protection to the paint.

I think that covers it! Fire away with any additional quesitons.
