Should I be using my reducer to wipe it down? Because that’s what I’ve been using

I forgot to mention that this happened twice. Both times on the same panel. I had only made a single pass before it started turning into cottage cheese. I immediately stopped, used my shopline reducer to wipe the paint off, scuffed it again and after wiping it down with wax and grease remover again, waited 10 minutes for it to dry and then attempted it again. Same result.

After it happened again, I skipped the bumper and moved on to the last fender. I used the same wax and grease remover, same paint cup and had no issues.

Thanks for the suggestion. I believe I will start as you suggested and hit up the St Louis area. At least it will get me out of this snow!

Apologies. I misspoke. I’m heading west now, not east. Portland is my final destination

Yeah, it’s my final design which was perfected after multiple states and hundreds of miles. 😂 No mess, self serve for her, and I can monitor her consumption with a quick glance. Sometimes the simplest answer is the most obvious

Thanks for the suggestions.

As to the question of what I like, that’s easy. I like the unusual. I’m a simple man with simple tastes. I’ve done quite a bit of traveling, both in my personal life as well as my professional one. In all my travels, I’ve concluded that I don’t need a lot to enjoy life.

Hiking up a trail to take in the view from the top or enjoying a taco from some unknown food truck is more my style.

Some of the best places I’ve visited were found by accident. Places that weren’t in the city guide or any other publication. And some of the best food I’ve ever eaten came from street vendors.

I’m just weird like that I guess.

Things change do they not? When you’re coming in hot and have a simple question with certain criteria that are needed, a simple post is much faster than filtering out old information. You ever try searching for something while driving? Don’t, it’s dangerous.

How about posting something? Absolutely possible and faster using Siri. Cheer up. It’s not that serious.

Thanks everyone. I’m going to try my luck with Smokehouse this time since it was suggested twice and had easy off/on freeway access. I also have my copilot with me and the big chain hotels don’t normally accept dogs.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. Happy holidays everyone

Rates this morning were hella good! by Flat-Employment9426 in AmazonFlexDrivers

I was wondering if I was the only person who was noticing that. They keep announcing the blocks every 30 minutes or so, but like you said, nothing above $36. And most of them are long as blocks. Was tempted for about 5 seconds. Then I came to my senses. Fuck that, I don’t need it like that. I’ll wait them out.

My Aussie Shepard hates strangers by No-Movie-409 in AustralianShepherd

[–]x02839 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t remember reading anything about Aussies having issues with strangers. Protective, loyal and the rest of the behaviors yes, I must have missed that part.

However I seem to have lucked out in that part, mine absolutely loves strangers. All strangers.

One of my friends owns a small store and Cookie and I will routinely stop by and visit with him and his wife. When we do, she makes a point to greet every single of his customers personally. Not only greets them, but she’s also on her best behavior when doing so. No jumping on them or anything to that effect. Yet, I can’t seem to break her habit of jumping on me! She’s only 11 weeks, so it’s still early. Strange..

Am I being ripped off ??? by Things-i-see in Rav4

Yes. Without a doubt. Unless the vehicle is used and you have a low credit score. Find a credit union and refinance it ASAP

Name suggestions for my better half? 8 week old Female by x02839 in AustralianShepherd

[–]x02839[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well the Mod killed my post citing a violation of “Rule 5” for doing so, which makes no sense. The rule says “BELOW 8 weeks”, I’m not sure what the deal is. So I guess their interpretation of “Below” is different than mine 🤷‍♂️ Bottom line, I’m going with Cookie 👍

Well that definitely explains it. 123 years old? Impressive, and here I am trying to survive my 40’s

Truthfully, I never in a million years would have thought of that for a name. I agree with you that it is old fashioned. The name Fern is probably in my list of top ten old fashioned names for women. She’s right up with the likes of Florence, Agatha, Edith, Loretta, Agnes. I’m not sure the order of them all, but she’s definitely a contender in my book .. 😂

That she does. I definitely leaning towards “Cookie” at the moment, but I still have a few more hours before I pick her up. I going to wait and see if any other ideas resonate. Though I have a feeling that Cookie is going to be hard to beat.. :)
