After some careful research and testing, I have learned that Persil is my new go to detergent.  It cleans as well as Tide but without the skin irritation that Tide gives me.  I don't need to add ammonia to the wash to "boost" the cleaning power.   It does just fine all by itself. Only carp is...

This is keen. Simply keen.

Experimenting with Persil https://www.persilproclean.com/us/en/products/power-liquid/intense-fresh.html.   The scent is quite powerful, suds plentiful, and cleans better than A&H with Oxiclean.  I secured a bottle at my local grocer on sale for $5.99.  Having heard all about it, I figured I'd...

Oh this is a good one!

My doesn't that look scrumptious at 15:12?   And my how father approves!

Figured I'd give an update of goings on in my abode starting with year 4.   For starters, I am throwing all extra $$$ to the principle of the mortgage so I can hopefully pay this off sooner than the 30 year maturity note. By and large, doing ok here.  I can say I enjoy home ownership. I like...

Remind me again, who made Hamilton appliances?

Dye sublimination on steel, not as swank as porcelain enamel but still pretty decent.

anybody see quarts of this stuff for sale? I just stopped at my local 7-11 that sells Gulf fuel went inside and they had everything but Gulf oil for sale.

pretty neat piece of nostalgia.  Instructions even tell you how to change the fluorescent bulb, but alas, do not give the kind of bulb you need to get.  Guess if and when it burns out, I will find out.   Clock runs on AA battery, USA designed China made movement.    The bulb can be turned...

It was actually warm today, compared to past weather so I decided clean out the garage floor after weeks of crud built up on it. Thanks to the liberal use of salt and cinders in my locale, the whole place smelled like ass and I decided I'd had enough.  Managed to clean the Toyota-san, as far as...

only thing better is the spinning of a Mopar gear reduction starter. http://https//www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQnA6nsgZEo

Not sure if there are other posts on this but for quite a few years now, in addition to 210 degree agitation strokes, arc-cuate transmissions, and cast iron cookware, I also dabble in weather stuff. Last year I took a course from my local NWS on how to be a trained storm spotter.   I have a...

After 30 plus years of shaving nearly 7 days a week, I decided as I approached the half century mark to beard out.  3 years ago, dad sent me a rechargeable Norelco unit that I hardly used except to trim around the ears and neck hair.   Well, I can beard out for about 8-9 days, after that, the...

As the temps have dropped quite a bit and are staying there, I hauled out the 10 year old Vornado EV1 only to discover the base pan had cracked and did not take to being siliconed up. In other words, the durn thing leaked like a sieve.   Adding insult to injury, prior to this I purchased for...

Addition, the Rudolph display 62 bucks online, from Ebay seller. Pretty chintzy construction but he's cute nonetheless. Also the candles were moved to garage door, this year I pounded in 2 rebar poles and used twine to secure the candles to the rebar.   Added 4  new yard signs also
