Windows Vista 1 2
by DoomsDave- 61 replies
- 3k views
Howdyall: I'ts time to go 'puter shopping again, and I noted that there's boxes in the stores with several hundred times the memory of my old dinosaur for a realtively reasonable price. They all appear to run Windows Vista, which, I recall got off to a rocky start, and, I'm told by IP folk still has some compatibility issues with XP, my present op sys. I will be using the machine for both work and fun, and th eoffice in the Dark Tower has XP, at least for now. So, ya'll whaddya know? Share, please? Am I hallucinating? If not, recommendations? (I haven't bought a computer yet.)

Having ( I hope ) having staggered thru the main mowing season , here in N. Central Fla , I am going to buy a new mower . I have kept the thing that I have going for about 30 years . New chassis twice , many cables , wheels etc . The bed is ok , but spindles are gone . All 4 wheels need replaced etc . Engine still runs well , and I can continue the rigging game , but I am getting pretty old , and figure that I deserve to have a new mower. . So , being Frugal, aka cheap , not withstanding , and having a comparatively small yard to mow , I may want to take the plunge to Cordless . I have an older cordless Leaf and string trimmer ( via Cra…

Some pics from Brevard County on last Friday. I did not make it down but went out on Saturday up in Flagler and had a great time. One of my friends who I went out with on Sat was down there on Friday and ended up in some random pics one of his other friends found while searching for pictures of the swell. I think this is at a spot called "RCs". http://www.southsurfreport.com/2011/08/26/friday-irene-swell-pt-1/'>http://www.southsurfreport.com/2011/08/26/friday-irene-swell-pt-1/ He is in the sequences starting on pics 108 and 146.

Black weevil found in Agave
by MattyB- 12 replies
- 3k views
Hey y'all, I just found an Agave americana that had completely collapsed and when I turned it over it had larvae grubs all partying up inside of it. I thought, "oh crap, palm weevil!". But after some googling I'm pretty sure it's the Agave snout weevil. It's only like 1.5 cm, and has a very curved snout. I've kept specimens of both the adult weevil and the larvae and I called the pest hotline just in case so they can look at the pics I took. I'll upload them for you guys on Monday when I get back into the office. Has anyone had problems with this Agave snout weevil (Scyphophorus acupuntatus)? I've had some holes in the crownshaft of my largest Roystonea and …

So whats with all the ugly new cars
by redant- 1 follower

OK most new cars are outright boring, jellybeans with wheels. In order to buck that trend it seems some manufactures decided anything but boring was OK. Probably the Brand with the ugliest cars per inch of floor space IMO is Lincoln, that whole front grill thing is totally out of control. The winner of the ugliest vehicle ever made in my lifetime (1958) is the Pontiac Aztec,what in the world where they thinking, far uglier then even an AMC Pacer. Todays contenders are the new Accra Tl and the Lincoln MKT Feel free to add to the list

The Stock Picker's Game - Week 5 1 2 3
by Dypsisdean- 93 replies
- 3k views
OK - as planned, this is the last week of the game. If anyone else wants to keep it going, bring it back later, or tweak/improve it a bit - feel free. I'll still come up with a pick. So come on you guys - last chance to make a pick (for now). I got the idea for the game by trying to focus the attention away from the hour by hour, blow by blow scrutiny of the market in favor of a longer perspective. But as can be seen, even making money by taking a weekly approach is very difficult. I've stayed with EZJ all month with the intention to hopefully show what an even longer term strategy might produce. I took a lot of grief from one player with the choice, and had a few bad …

I was recently asked to put up some photos of my two boys--never been asked that on Palmtalk and I was flattered to say the least! So I went searching through my old emails and this is a few of what I found. First up is Jansin and me next to some of our favorite Copernicias(we call them muscle palms, in a deep voice and we always grab our biceps when we mention them) at Fairchild.

Posted on August 7, 2013 | Leave a comment Earlier this week a Duval County Judge ruled in favor of a Duval couple who had installed new landscaping following the 8 principles of Florida Friendly Landscapes (FFL). Several years ago Dr. and Mrs. Jules Sidle decided to replace their St. Augustine grass with a friendlier and drought tolerant landscape as their home sat on a lot that borders a small lake which drains directly into the Intracoastal Waterway in Jacksonville. By eliminating the numerous fertilizer a…

I would like to announce, encourage and even invite you all to watch the reality show, Four Weddings this upcoming thursday night, July 26th at 9:00 PM eastern standard time on the channel TLC ( for those of you that have Direct TV,channel 280). Now I know and realize most guys have never even heard of this show, let alone watch it before. Many woman have, mostly catering to a younger crowd, and especially those that are planning in the future of getting married. So, back in early January, one of our daughters Melissa, applied to the show, and sent in the usual applications to the producers. After a few weeks, Melissa received a call and the talks were on. Melissa w…
