sell things on. So farm, bowls have been the biggest seller, but I want to make

and #2 would you buy one (and NO, it’s not a sales pitch, just a survey before 
I put a lot of time and effort into making some up) if the price were right 
(probably $20 each, but they last forever, for the ones made of common woods 
like oak, poplar etc, and more if it’s made of an exotic wood that I have to 
buy the “blanks” for. I also plan to make christmas tree ornaments that look 
like snow men and christmas trees, as well as plain old round balls/spheres and 
paint them, or stain them, or burn black “rings” into them using a wire to burn 
the wood while the lathe is spinning the wood. Thanks a LOT in advance. Chuck--

Chuck,
Check this site out. If your PT is slated to become a collectible, depend on 
people trying to grab them whenever possible. Like yours. Mustangs were/are 
like that, too.

Re: [VFB] OFF TOPIC. My Baby got crashed into by a deer

2014-11-12 Thread Chuck Alexander
(First off, if anybody don’t wanna read an off topic rant by me about the 
insurance “scam” please just save your time and hit the “delete” button now.)

Joyce: Alabama must have some weird laws because this is the first claim I have 
ever submitted in this state. In FL, they (the insurance company) has the car 
owner to go to three garages, get estimates, then, unless that garage has some 
bad reports through the BBB etc, they are the ones who do get the job. I even 
told the insurance company that I could actually fix te car myself, using that 
very method of going to the junkyard near me that I know had several PT 
cruisers, and even three in the same silver color etc, and fix it myself. 

Bottom  line was that YES, I could do that IF I had the cash in hand to pay off 
the car in total which I do not, so it becomes a mute point. And, like I said, 
even if I fixed it perfectly (I have a friend who does paint and body and even 
has a frame straightener if need be) who said he’d help me, in order to 
re-title it, I’d have to get one of the three state inspectors to check it out 
and re-issue a “totalled tag” or whatever they call it and even then, my 
insurance guy, who is an independent agent (not Progressive, which is the 
underwriter on the policy and the ones I feel ripped me off) told me that for 
whatever reason, very seldom do those inspectors re-issue titles. 

Probably has something to do with the politics of the insurance lobby or 
something like that. Bottom line is, even though I could get a loan to do it 
myself, If the guy did NOT re-issue a title, I’d get a ticket every time I 
turned around because #1, I couldn’t gets tags because #2 I couldn’t get it 
insured, which is required to get the tags and it I would end up owing a cpl 
thousand bucks for a cpl thousand pounds of “scrap iron” worth a cpl HUNDRED 
bucks, then I’d still have to find another car and owe for that loan as well.  
Sad huh???  

We have called s   many ppl the past cpl days about this, including the 
state insurance auditor’s office (I think that is his title) in Montgomery and 
we cannot seem to win for losing. The insurance company’s ALWAYS win. I know 
because I used to sell life insurance in another lifetime and they base their 
actuary tables for example, not on what MIGHT happen, but what HAS happened in 
past yrs, so the game is rigged against us “consumers” from the get go. I do 
intend to burn the ears of my state senator and congressman because in this 
case, it’s the state, not the insurance company that made these goofy rules, 
although I’m sure they had help in the legislature via the insurance lobbyist 
money to make these laws. You know how politics work. Makes me sick when I see 
all the TV ads by insurance companies talking about how great they are and then 
when you file a claim they run and hide. get this. I asked the Progressive guy 
yesterday point blank “This is a no fault claim, and my first and only claim 
with you guys ever, yet after this is said and done, you will either increase 
our rates of refuse to insure us again right ??” His one word answer was 
YES!!  

So, if anybody here has Progressive as their underwriter, this is what you have 
to look forward too, after paying them THOUSANDS in premiums in the ten YEARS 
we have had them should you need to file a claim, then you’ll see what they do 
to your rates/policy after the claim. Course this is NOT just Progressive. This 
happens with all companies at times.  At this point, we’re just thankful our 
son wasn’t injured or killed by the deer as we can always find another car and 
chalk it up to experience gained the hard way.  Sorry for the BOOK here, but I 
am just venting some of my frustrations with the whole mess. That’s the kindest 
word  I can think of to call it LOL.. Chuck

Alan: Thanks. See my rant answer to Joyce. Its sad, but right now, unless 
I had a TON of money, I couldn't even fix it myself, which I COULD do, and 
still get a title re-issued. The insurance company transferred the money to 
the loan company WITHOUT us even knowing about it till AFTER the fact. I 
LOVE living in Alabama, but am finding out they have the worst car insurance 
laws in the country, if not the world.  As of yesterday the car belongs to 
Progressive, and they want me to give them $3900 for it as is. (The Kelly 
blue book, even though it was in mint condition, and Limited edition is only 
$4400 or so) That's a crock and a half. Yet they'll end up selling it to 
some junk yard for a cpl HUNDRED bucks. I'm finding out that in my state, if 
you don’t have a lien free title to your car (or house) you REALLY do NOT 
own your car and/or house etc. which is why the little guy will never get 
ahead. The Rolling Stones had a song yrs ago called Under My Thumb and 
that's just how the state laws and insurance lobby have us peons here I 
guess. If I were rich, I could probably hire a lawyer and get it right, 
but that's not going to happen.  Chuck

Please ask the insurance co. If they will sell it back to you.
That way you don't have to pay a markup to the junk yard.
It doesn't have to be towed away or towed back to you.
You should be able to find someone that will rebuild it for you at a cheaper 
rate then is charged to the insurance co. Perhaps if


You go to a body shop and see if one of the workers will do it after hours 
or on the weekend?

30 dollars tuition and a 1 time fee of  100 dollars for their state of the art 
paint booth. We have restored her 1959 IH truck and my 1982 Datsun diesel by 
doing it ourselves. The instructors were excellent and the cost was 
minimal..mostly time and, of course, the paint which is pricey.  It tooks us 
several years to do both vehicles (we did her  car, her truck and my truck

   Joyce: Thanks. We do in fact have one nearby as I went to that same

Please ask the insurance co. If they will sell it back to you.
That way you don't have to pay a markup to the junk yard.
It doesn't have to be towed away or towed back to you.
You should be able to find someone that will rebuild it for you at a cheaper 
rate then is charged to the insurance co. Perhaps if 

You go to a body shop and see if one of the workers will do it after hours or 
on the weekend?

forward. I have seen on the news one guy who tried to feed a small one

your deers do that!

A deer is nothing compared to totalling a car with a kangaroo. They are
solid muscle, and will hop away after totalling a car.

Thank God.  We had a similar incident here in the county a few years ago
that was fatal.  The buck's hind legs came through the windshield on the

I'm really glad your son had the alertness to slow down.

Re: [VFB] OFF TOPIC Amish style electric heater ??

Chuck,
Same here. Keep the house heater low and use the Edenpure (what I have) to heat 
the room you are staying in. Very quiet and safe.
Love mine, and it has a remote control- don’t even have to get up to turn it up 
or down. And I sit in my leather recliner with my back against a heating pad on 
the lowest setting, with a small down comforter over me while we watch TV. 
Cheryl does the same thing. Therapy, warmth, and entertainment, and not using 
much juice.

2014-11-06 Thread Chuck Alexander
Don: Thanks, I think we’ll get a cpl of those as like I said, around here now 
Propane is well about $3 per gallon, while our electric cost is only about 7 
cents per killowatt hour so it came out cheaper last year. We do like having 
the propane as a backup because when winter storms knock out the power, at 
least we’re not totally “in the cold”. . Chuck

Re: [VFB] OFF TOPIC Amish style electric heater ??

2014-11-05 Thread Chuck Alexander
Joyce: Thanks a lot. So far, I’m hearing what I wanted to hear. Specially since 
in the dead of Winter, we close off some rooms when we are not using them so 
the propane heater won’t just run and run and run. Chuck

Subject: Re: [VFB] OFF TOPIC Amish style electric heater ??

I  have and use an Edenpure upstairs and a Duraflame downstairs in the tying 
room (I'm cold blooded).  I find them equally useful and they both work well. 
They are safe, heat well and you would be amazed at how long the room remains 
warm after you turn them off as they do, indeed, radiate heat from the core. 
I'd recommend either of them as being very efficient. I find it is cheaper to 
use the heaters with the furnace turned low as a background and just heat the 
room in which I currently reside. I think you'd like them as well. Joyce

  Folks: I know this is way off topic, but I have a question to anybody who may 
have used the “Amish Style” electric heaters. #1, they are mostly in a wooden 
frame, yet the info on them says that that part stays cool to the touch?? Are 
they really “safe” if they have a wooden frame?? I do understand that the inner 
frame is metal but still. #2, the literature on all of them says they heat an 
area up to 1000 sq. ft. I cannot see how this can be possible for a little 
heater like these??? I also read that they are the most efficient type (being 
that they are infrared type and heat the OBJECTS in the room, and not the total 
volume of air as well) heaters on the market??  

  We now use (in addition to liquid propane) the oil filled “radiator” style 
heaters and I have read that they are the most efficient type heaters???  I do 
like the safety of the oil filled type as they do not, like old fashioned 
electric space heaters, have an open element that can be VERY dangerous and we 
would NEVER go to sleep with one of those type running. Thanks for any help on 
this subject. You can contact me OFF list. Thanks, Chuck

In that case, Peggy, I would have to say TAKE ALL THE PILLS YOU CAN  - 
but stick to the brand name..no generics. g


But in reality, I pretty well agree.  Sometimes there is a pill that 
you really need to take.  Otherwise, try to maintain a healthy diet 
combined with a good exercise program and healthy eating and you won't 
need the pills.  Or at least will need a nimimum number of pills.

Anything connected to the stomach... I will say it a million times and
won't get tired. It is nothing that eating right and exercise can't solve.
Pills have side effects and are not designed to cure your problem, just
mask the symptoms. And then you need more pills to deal with the side
effects, and around and around you go. Go to the root of the problem. I
just saw another friend come completely off Type 2 diabetes medications
after exercising and watching his diet since last August. If you let the
pharmaceutical companies run your life, THEY WILL.

there is a small percentage of folks who can not use artificial 
sweeteners, Splendor and all it's cousin's including soda's.  It caused 
cramping and severe bouts of gastric distress.


These are not things you want to happen when fishing, which when wading 
is a great exercise!


Don't take pills, exercise and diet is the key. Pills just support 
others retirements through dividends.

I thought Stevia was OK. We started using it to sweeten tea a long time ago. 
At first it was kinda weird, but after about a week, it was just like sugar. 
Stevia also has a ton of fiber in it. Chuck

I use stevia in anything I want sweet. I have the powdered and liquid. Not
sugar, but it's better than nothing.

I eat lots of 'carbs'. Funny thing is that true carbohydrates may or may not
count as diet 'carbs'.
My choices are carbs/lean-meats/non-starchy veggies/fats/free items. If I
don't eat enough carbs, I go low-glucose. But to lose weight and keep the
calories low compared to fat-burning foods, I stay mostly away from white
bread, pastas, and fried foods.

So fruit is a 'carb', same as pasta or mashed potatoes. It's just how they
count it as fuel to be burned as a sugar would, to balance the insulin used.
My diet is a 2000 cal/day total, and that amounts to more roughage than I
normally eat. But I really miss my curried chicken wings. *Sniff* {:o(

Re: [VFB] Off Topic Diabetic ???

2013-10-11 Thread Bob
There is a product called FruitSweet. Is a cold evaporated fruit blend. 
Generally, one serving is a fruit exchange. I use this product at work for 
desserts. I would most definitely check with your doctor before using as it is 
fructose. Our membership loves the desserts made with. Even the ones who hate 
foods made with the other sweetners.

Absolutely. The things diabetics can't have are carbohydrates. Stevia 
has no carbohydrates.

OK you guys, this is a recipe for hot tomato soup to enjoy after a day of
fishing (as temperatures cool).  I want to share it somewhere, and I have no
plans of EVER joining a recipe sharing site. 

 

I have had an abundance of tomatoes, and have been looking for ways to use
them up, so I have been experimenting with various recipes  for tomato soup.
None tasted like I wanted till this one, which is a blending of the good
ideas from all of the others. Delete or enjoy:

 

Tom's Roasted Tomato/Basil Onion Rue Cream of Tomato Soup. (Tom Soup)

 

Ingredients:

 

1 (8 tablespoon stick) of butter, melted .

1 medium onion, diced 

1 garlic clove

Handful of fresh basil (or dry basil, to taste)

1 cup cooking sherry (or the real thing if you have it)

 

74 oz of fresh tomatoes (or same amount of canned tomatoes if fresh isn't
available)

3 tablespoons chicken soup base (this is a paste sold in a jar)

3 tablespoons brown sugar

3 bay leaves

salt, white  or black pepper to taste (taste before seasoning, some of the
other ingredients already are salted)

 

1-1/2 cup whole milk, OR  half and half, OR cream (depending on whether your
wife is watching).

 

Instructions:

 

Fire up the grill, and lay the tomatoes on, and roast over medium heat.  If
using canned tomatoes, you can get a similar result by draining the liquid
(set it aside and add back later) then broiling the tomatoes under the
broiler.

 

While the tomatoes are roasting, melt butter, and add onion, garlic, basil
and sherry.  Cook until onions are transparent, then pour all of the
ingredients into your blender, and blend until smooth.  Add back to pan, and
bring to a simmer.  Add flour whisking constantly.  It will thicken right
up.  Move off the heat.

 

Put roasted tomatoes into your blender, and blend until smooth, then add to
rue.  Stir it all up until blended.  Now add sugar and season to taste
(canned tomatoes, chicken base, and cooking sherry all have a bunch of salt,
so taste it first before adding salt).  NOTE  The sugar is very important,
if you taste it as you add it you will notice how it brings out flavor.  Use
more or less to taste.  

 

Last, add milk or cream.  (Reheat the soup, but don't boil it after milk is
added)

 

Garnish with your favorite garnish (chopped fresh basil or parsley, parmesan
cheese are all good) and serve with your favorite fish.

 

Enjoy!

Re: [VFB] Off topic (but tasty)

2010-10-08 Thread Tom Davenport
Actually, I used the milk when I made the soup, and it tasted great.  I figured 
a stick of butter was enough fat.  This recipe makes three quarts, so thats 
only a 1/3 tablespoon of butter per cup of soup, around 40 fat calories. 
Everything else is healthy, healthy.  Make it and enjoy! 

My wife hasn't divorced me yet, and judging by the way I have seen people die, 
a heart attack isn't a bad way to go, especially if you get the timing 
right...say the day before they decide to stick you in the nursing home...
