    I was looking at my Die Hard Platinum batteries that still work great in two of the cars. One was bought July 2008 and one April 2011. Will replace with Die Hards again when needed!

    Took the battery in under two year warrantee. Got a free replacement. FREE. It pays to buy online/credit card. It is a Die Hard and not auto craft or whatever.

    Pondering how my battery tender got unplugged. Battery is dead and having a hard time getting it to charge. Swap meet is this weekend and vacation starts Saturday. Curious as to how many people will show up. Its in town at least.

    Pondering how a 2 liter four cylinder supposedly takes six quarts of oil. That's more than the displacement.

    I think my retro encabulator needs a good cleansing. After 2020, it seemed like it was spam free. Now it looks non-responsive, and shows admin privilege seeking behavior. Maybe if I poke it with a stick it will circum-vocabulate. I'm waiting for the halogen fluid to dry. I don't want to have to repack the muffler bearings.

    In Wisconsin we can pay fees online or in person. Counter fee for in person is $5.00. If you pay on line with a CC there is a convenience fee of 2.98. If you pay by ACH from Checking or savings acct., there is No Fee. I do all my vehicles via ACH from home, have the tags/stickers within about 5 days.
    Any Collector car (older than 20 yrs currently) is a one time-life time registration for person registering it.

    Pondering why heat doesn't work right on Ranger PU. Changed the door motor in the glove box and now the tee that diverts coolant in and out of the heater core. Also looses antifreeze and can't figure out where. Ran it for quite a while trying to get heat to come out only to figure out the exhaust is plugged up. Really surprised its not rotted out after 23 years. Oh and the floor drain in the garage over flowed again.

    Replaced our roof after the shingles started blowing off every time the wind blew hard. Got tired of picking them up out of the yard. Had them come back and do the gutters a few months later.

    The roof was done a few years ago when a tree fell on the house. We're getting the siding replaced in April so the outside of the house will be DONE! We just got done gutting one of the bathrooms so one more to go. We did everything ourselves in there except for the drywall.
