    Good Afternoon TrippyKin, Well it's a decent Monday and yes I made it in before 9am :D. 8:40am to be exact but that meant I had to get up by 6:15am and had to leave the house at 7:35am. Now at 5pm, I'm headed down to do an hour on the treadmill and then off to home. This will be doable since...

    Good old 2x60mph AC....I miss the vent windows on the front doors. Heck in the summer with that old bug, I had to carry a fire extinguisher as I had more than one oil leak that caught fire in the summer heat. My next ride was a brand new 1976 Honda Civic hatch and that car was "da bomb"...

    Hey Reid, I'm quite certain the cops knew too :D. My ride wasn't fast but when the snow hit she floated on top. As long as we had a supply of those vintage Coleman Handwarmers we could continue to puff, puff, pass :oops: Brew No heat in the bug. Had to keep an ice scraper to use on the...

    Oh man do I remember so many of these like it was the late 60s and 70s in my folks house. Creepy Crawlies were the bomb and a little later on the Incredible Edibles were even better since you could eat them. I remember freaking out my little sister with the forerunner to gummy worms :laugh...

    Morning Trippyville, Sitting here leisurely drinking my coffee after sending a message to my department that I'll be home today. I forgot what playing hooky felt like. Got 10 days of sick time a year I never take or at least taken just 3 times in 10 years. My boss has prompted me for years...

    Hello Trippyville, My day is over and it wasn't great. I've decided to be sick tomorrow to protest the actions of our pointy haired Dilbert's boss type who's now decided that at a completely unconventional software company, we all need to be in the office before 9am. Now for the past 10 years...

Just glad it's over and definitely...

    Fire is roaring, getting ready for good friends, good food & good football even though I'm not partial to either team. I never got the gene so TV sports are not high on my watch list but the forces, mechanics and heart put into the event never cease to amaze me. Although for the kind of...

    Evening late night Tripsters. Just checking in to see how what's been happening on the thread. It's 15°F outside and 78°F inside here. We forget all about the weather when I stoke up the wood burning stove insert. Cats are all stretched out and lethargic laying feet from the heat, the wife...

    Howdy TrippyKin, We went out to an Irish Pub last night and I enjoyed a Bulleit bourbon, a Guiness and my fish-n-chips. Got home and collapsed from the long day and tasty libation. Off to get a haircut and then hopefully a bit of downtime before taking Mom out for dinner. Never any rest for...

    Howdy Trippyville, I've been really missing the gang lately but work has been busy and haven't had time for much more than lurking. I've been trying to find a better wick for the ERA but silica is still winning the flavor contest. I used rolled cotton last night and it imparts the flavor of...

    Share your wick and coil setups for your Reo!

    I'll give it a try. I too have noticed that the sheer mass of the coil keeps it from behaving like a standard atty so going lower wouldn't be a problem except I wanted more than 4 wraps. I think I may need to go 28AWG to get lower with a fair number of wraps. The HH.357s and Cisco LR seem to...

    Share your wick and coil setups for your Reo!

    Hildicat, I tried switching to cotton last night even purchasing the CVS rolled cotton you posted previously. I followed your advice concerning rolling it into a wick pointed enough to easily pass through the coil also made according to the version you showed (Squashed with tweezers after...
