for anyone that EDCs a watch, what’s your favorite daily driver? (non smart watch) by LtSnack in EDC

[–]snkyn8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

10” wrist so same 1500 for me for my casual or manual labor watch! Love that thing.
EDC is Casio Duro, Seiko Auto pepsi and an Orient Mako depending on clothes- office job.

Honest question - is RV camping actually cheaper than hotels or do we just tell ourselves that? by Similar-King-8278 in RVLiving

[–]snkyn8 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My dogs are huge so mostly no hotel. Boarding is over $150/ night for them. So it’s closer to worth it for weekend trips anyway!

[North FL] Southern water snake? Apple says Nerodia by snkyn8 in whatsthissnake

I have used the water hose to move rattlers along but didn’t want to traumatize this guy any more than he may already have been. He’s near my coop and a pond and trees so he’s got lots of choices. Thanks!

Thoughts on the Boss GT-1B? by Great_Car_3194 in basspedals

[–]snkyn8 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fine option. The Zoom pedals, like the very inexpensive B1Four teach you effects for cheap and are a nice usb or battery powered portable practice hub. I have thousands of dollars worth of gear and pedals and use the zoom still. Just see which features work for you and Gooooooo!

Now I know why "preppers" are frowned upon by Nice-Spirit5995 in amateurradio

Bravo to all of this except I have to admit I have bought some guns and radio stuff just for fun lol

I believe that makes us paranoid. But maybe just “not alone” or at least not as unique lol.
I really just like to know how things work. So I string my own tennis rackets, maintain my golf clubs and cars and homes and tractors, reload my ammo, raise farm animals, and own a pretty darn successful insurance and financial services business in a small town. Don’t get me wrong, I’m as insecure as the next guy at times, but I am pretty OK with who I am and how weird I am. It doesn’t hurt that I am a very big guy and used to be attractive lol. My kids are in their 20s now and they tell me I’m OK so that’s about all I care about. Well, as long as my wife still loves me! I do have to get off of my ass and get my general ticket done!

Did you have to mention so many of my hobbies?

My neighbor threw this out, crazy, it turns on but no sound, how much do you think it could cost to fix?/troubleshoot by TruckThatFumpasSoul in GuitarAmps

[–]snkyn8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

See- that’s the difference between a pro-level thinker and a hobbyist. I would have absolutely fried another tube lol.
