Overnight Open Thread (4 Mar 2016)
Road Rage
I'm not buying into this idea of long-term driving causing violence. People prone to violence will do it regardless of circumstance. Modern Pirates Pretty slick. Pirates hack into shippign company's servers to identify booty before boarding the ship. While the crew goes and hide, the pirates board, find the specific container they're looking for, grab what they wanted and depart. Kylo Ren In Classic Movies
"You would be shocked how many NBA players have been blackmailed in an effort to keep their privacy. My guess is a minimum of 25 percent of NBA players have dealt with blackmail at some point in their career," she continues. "I've heard girls brag about long-term hustles where they have a player paying their rent and expenses just to keep them quiet and out of their family life."
Oh I'm sure this happens in other pro sports too. Dog Video

1012 Christy and Willow thinking of leaving?
I knew that the Hot Air refugees would bring a share of hard cases with them, happens in every refugee wave.
That said, I think it's time for Ace and the cobs to go on a serious banhammer spree.
I don't comment as much as I used to here because politics and news events were giving me fits of anger followed by bouts of gloom. Neither is a state to post in, but when I come around and see a few well loved and long time posters thinking of leaving, it's time for Ace to mercilessly enforce the "don't attack anyone personally rule"
Damn, I fucking HATE election years.

Look, seriously, as an experienced long haul trucker you get to the point where you can read people's minds. I've had incidents where I knew which of the cars in front of me were going to exit before the people driving those cars knew it was their exit.
You talk about 'body language', there is the same effect when people are driving, and you can see it in the way they drive. You know when the car pulls out in front of you that it will stop half a mile down the road and make a left turn.

Johnny Carson used to explain to friends that he always preferred to be married, although even he acknowledged he couldn't really be faithful, because it got the press off his back about who he was or wasn't dating. His final marriage pretty much only worked because she accepted the fact he'd sleep with anything with a pretty face and a vagina.

A local peak is a technology that has been taken to the last inch of development. You probably have seen the Japanese pre-war air-warning system which was essentially an ear trumpet large enough to park a mini-van in, or the mobile Italian ones which were sounding surfaces that you wore like a hat. They used the best techniques to expand the available technology, which was the human ear. I expect they developed protocols based on the limitations of the technology . . . then radar was developed.
The solution to the local peak problem is to find another, taller peak to work at.
There are limits to both utility and to manufacturing as well as conceptual limits to what to put available tech to. It does not mean failure, it means the next group of bored and clever geeks have a niche to fill too.

I'd say, not necessarily, in either case. Disrupt comms to a drone, its motors might shut down altogether, and down it comes. And if the disrupting signal has a tight, directed beam, no reason why it should adversely affect legitimate services.

Or they really do want to remain faithful, but fail. When you're on the road constantly, dealing with the pressures of playing at the professional level, around your teammates and support staff who aren't... shall we say... the most likely to provide good moral encouragement.

That is great news. Falcon 9 performed better than expected and tonight's launch was 100% successful. It delivered the satellite into a highly elliptical orbit and now the satellite will use its onboard thrusters to gradually circularize its orbit to geosynchronous and "park" itself over eastern Asia.
The first stage landing attempt on the barge failed, but as I pointed out in a comment on an earlier thread, in tonight's launch it had only a small chance of succeeding because they needed to get maximum performance out of the first stage, leaving little fuel for a landing attempt. But SpaceX was like, "Whatever. Let's try it anyway."
The MSM will play up the landing failure, but don't be fooled. The primary mission was to put their paying customer's satellite into orbit. Landing the first stage was strictly secondary. The customer doesn't care what happens to the first stage. Every other launch provider simply discards it into the ocean, or on the barren steppes of central Asia in the case of the Russians, or into rural villages in the case of the Chinese.
It is very cool that SpaceX is able to do research and development on operational missions, rather than having to do special launches to test their landing system.

The early evening light when I was driving home today was incredibly beautiful. The combination of the angle of the sun and dust in the air made every wrinkle and fold in the land stand out in stark relief.
The mountains seemed especially majestic and brooding.
I had to slow down for some deer. Even the hay bales seemed lit with some kind of magical light.
I found it all genuinely moving. Kind of a the grandeur of God shines like shook foil moment. Oddly enough it almost brought me to tears and made me forget all the crap that's going on.
Africa was awesome but I think the most beautiful place in the world is exactly where I live. I'm sure most of you's feel the same about your homes. And I think there's something particularly conservative about an attachment to a particular place.
Just felt like sharing.

Alas, no. Fiancee still wrapped in work concerns (her company just got bought by a competitor). It also unexpectedly decided to be Spring here, which meant that all the stuff that hath runneth amok in the garden needed to be brought to heel. I've been busier than a one-armed paper-hanger in a 25-foot coat-closet.
How's Big doing, since you (thankfully!) now have a diagnosis and can access Things That Work? I hope he's doing well. There seems to be some rule that the first three things you try don't really hit the button, but the fourth is a night-and-day improvement....with problems -- which changes the dynamic to "maximize efficiency/minimize problems" instead of "this totally blows".

OMG. Are you currently monitoring my life?
Had a conversation with a friend of mine. She's been very not herself for a long time, and I've had to distance myself. Well, she is going on vacation, and I called her for the first time in months. She wanted to know what was wrong. I didn't want to go into it, but she insisted.
So... I told her a mild version of things. It's a discussion we've had at least four other times.
The result? It's all my fault, I'm imagining things, she's not like that, I'm completely wrong about everything. I am intolerant, critical, demanding and angry.
My instinct was not to tell her the truth. And I was right. She didn't want to hear it.
I ended the conversation with "it's all my fault" and then when she emailed, ended up thanking her for pointing out my numerous, numerous faults and said I'd contact her after I've received extensive psychotherapy.

Summers are a bit tough. Getting into a car that has been cooking in the sun is not fun. We are talking 140 degrees or hotter in the car. The metal seat belt buckle WILL burn you. If you don't have a cloth steering wheel cover, you can barely touch the steering wheel.
We pay a price, but compared to snow it is soooooo worth it.

Working on it. Practice makes perfect. Oh, and just because it needs to be repeated:
25 I refuse to risk losing friendships over politicians who would not go to the mattresses for me and whom I absolutely count on selling me out. I take that as just the way it is now, but friendships and family relationships aren't worth risking for people who only purely by coincidence occasionally do something to my benefit.

After crunching data on factors such as cost of living, taxes, health care, weather, and well-being,
Seven of the top ten have absolutely brutal winter weather. Five have, in certain places, absolutely flatly nothing. Arizona is on the southern border. Arizona has places that are populated by high income families, and other places that are crime ridden ghettos.
A good retirement place is where you have family and community. That assumes your family is functional.
Crime rate was not one of the listed criterion.
Population density, crime, cost of living, and taxes are the deciding factors for me.

I think the real issue was that she was a leftist.
Look, morbidly obese people are not physically attractive. Just how it is.
When they are of the left, that is even more so in general.
Really, getting upset over it is silly.
Posted by: Tilikum Armored Killer Assault Whale at March 04, 2016 11:36 PM (hVdx9)
OK, I didn't know about her leftism. That's a legitimate ground for criticism.
All I saw was "She's FAT. Did I mention that she's FAT? And she's UGLY too. And FAT." Repeat x100. It got tiresome.

The "it's not you, it's me," is the signal that it's time to end the discussion. It always is. It simply means "you're not listening, you're attacking me, and I don't have the time or the energy for this any more."
In other related news, I had to speak with my insane ex-boss today in regards to a project he's working on. That was completely useless. I've had more informative conversations with my cat. I had to drag words out of him. It was painful, and I don't understand it, since, in the end, the conversation will benefit his company and not me in any way.

No danger of that here.
I said I'd raise taxes on men in tights. In Donna &&&& world, there would be big tax breaks for men in tuxes.
Last weekend, I saw a bunch of young guys in tuxedos and shades in a park - they were clearly part of a wedding party. (It was unseasonably warm here last Saturday.) And every last one of those puppies looked very fine to these middle-aged eyes.
I know guys don't like to wear them because they're not comfortable - tight at the neck and there's a bow tie (the only time a bow tie looks sharp instead of nerdy), but a well-fitted monkey suit has to be the second most flattering thing a male can possibly wear (the first being Marine dress blues). A baseball cap worn backwards can make a genius look like a dolt. A tux makes even plain men look dashing and sophisticated, especially when combined with sun glasses.
There - my paean to the classic tux, not the powder blue ones guys wore to prom in the 70's but the classic Gary Grant monkey suit. Amirite, 'ettes?

I was just here last night or the night before! i thought you were ignoring me! but it was very late, complaining about how even junior college out here has become an indoctrination camp.
anyway, Uncle horse is going on an adventure tomorrow and is off to the trainer once more. But this is a special trainer who might be a forever home, if he works out, shes going to vet school and her husband is a farrier who has trimmed his feet ever since he got here. They are excited to make him part of their family.
The Butterscotch Gang on the back porch is still there, but they hang in the house and have a truce with the indoor cats. They like being house cats now. Niece Horse has gone back to San Diego with her mommy, but a different Niece has come to live with us, to be my new stallion's wife! I am very excited. she will be my own horse. life here is pretty good.

Alright for those who missed it in the "How the new Ghostbusters movie destroys the partriachy" thread, ChristBlinky wrote a long piece on how someone was socking her and being a general passive-aggressive pain in the ass. She then said she was leaving the blog. Many long time regulars asked her to say and advised taking a little time off due to the internecine warfare between those who like Trump and those who don't. She later came back and said that she would reconsider her position, but was going to take some time off from commenting here. Much later in the thread Willow mentioned that the rancor amongst many of the Horde as been getting to her and that she was going to take some time off until the election season was over.
Unrelated, I have noticed that Adam Baldwin is back on twitter. Kind of dissapointed in that. I liked his feed, but I thought it would be a pretty big blow to Twitter to lose him.

I'd say do your homework, and then some. Things are not going well in Germany, and you might not want to be there when they get ugly. And they will, if you're in small town with a very large number of "refugees" or if you're in a large town with a significant number of "refugees." As a a male, you might not be targeted, but you might be put in a position where any female you're with might.
If I remember correctly, there only place that didn't seem to be awash in "refugee" violence was the eastern border with Poland.
Also... remember that right now in Germany, it seems that "refugees" get a pass and if you are involved in any sort of incident with one of them, YOU will be held guilty and they will not.

So Kid and I got the very great privilege of push-starting Lloyd Ruby, the greatest driver to never win the Indy 500, and by the time I could explain who we'd just seen, here he came, down the straightaway where Barney Oldfield first broke the 60 MPH barrier, doing 120 and holding on his cowboy hat with one hand.
I watched him slide all the way through 1 and 2, and he never let go of that hat.

I think it's been a bit too political lately on the day side. I've just sort of walked away from those threads, and would rather be here, on the ONT. Or on the pets thread or the library thread.
This whole election is ugly; I can't wait until it's over.
Or until SMOD comes. I'm still hoping.

No danger of that here.
I said I'd raise taxes on men in tights. In Donna &&&& world, there would be big tax breaks for men in tuxes.
Last weekend, I saw a bunch of young guys in tuxedos and shades in a park - they were clearly part of a wedding party. (It was unseasonably warm here last Saturday.) And every last one of those puppies looked very fine to these middle-aged eyes.
I know guys don't like to wear them because they're not comfortable - tight at the neck and there's a bow tie (the only time a bow tie looks sharp instead of nerdy), but a well-fitted monkey suit has to be the second most flattering thing a male can possibly wear (the first being Marine dress blues). A baseball cap worn backwards can make a genius look like a dolt. A tux makes even plain men look dashing and sophisticated, especially when combined with sun glasses.
There - my paean to the classic tux, not the powder blue ones guys wore to prom in the 70's but the classic Gary Grant monkey suit. Amirite, 'ettes?

I went to a formal wedding in Colombia a about 10 years with all the men in Tuxedos. That felt very classy. The biggest problem was letting the waiters know "agua, por favor" meant water, please, not whisky and water, please. I suppose it was God's will to get drunk that night.
I also attended a formal wedding in Scotland. If the formal tux felt very classy, the formal kilt felt very manly.

happened with that batch of kitties that was occupying part of your
house? Why haven't you been around?
Posted by: cthulhu at March 05, 2016 12:02 AM (EzgxV)
I was
just here last night or the night before! i thought you were ignoring
me! but it was very late, complaining about how even junior college out
here has become an indoctrination camp.
anyway, Uncle horse is
going on an adventure tomorrow and is off to the trainer once more. But
this is a special trainer who might be a forever home, if he works out,
shes going to vet school and her husband is a farrier who has trimmed
his feet ever since he got here. They are excited to make him part of
their family.
The Butterscotch Gang on the back porch is still there,
but they hang in the house and have a truce with the indoor cats. They
like being house cats now. Niece Horse has gone back to San Diego with
her mommy, but a different Niece has come to live with us, to be my new
stallion's wife! I am very excited. she will be my own horse. life here
is pretty good.
Posted by: Gushka can haz kittys what plays fetch! at March 05, 2016 12:13 AM (6ga6c)
I was probably zoning by the time you came by.
Did Uncle Horse get to take some kitties with him? Although I'm very happy he could have a new forever home with people who know how special he is, he might be lonely without a kitty or four.
Did Niece Horse take the goat with her? Or is the new niece also a goat-fancier?

Agreed. Truth be told, I find this election sort of entertaining, but when you get right down into the mud pit where people are fighting about I'm not sure what, it gets unpleasant. Fighting is fine when it has a point, but I can't find the point in those threads a lot of the time.
But the other thing is: never underestimate the effect on the community of the legion of trolls, disruptors, Mobies, and paid shills who descent on this place when the big election rolls around. They are not always easy to spot, but the anger you see in those threads is, in part, their spoor.

As to the rancor, it's not going to last much longer. We're right smack in the heart of circular firing squad season, but it's going to end one way or t'other soon. Cruz just pushed his chips to the center and called all in by deciding to compete hard for Florida and to a lesser extent Ohio. This has driven the Rubio Fan Club nuts, because their last hope is pinned on schemes and unicorn dreams. When people start talking about increasingly narrow "paths to victory" it's over. I was at a Republican election night event last time, and when Romney's people started sounding like Karl Rove I knew that Mitt was done. I've actually muted some people on Twitter, and I never do that. I'll unmute them after the dust settles, I followed them because I generally like their tweets.
OTOH, Cruz doing this has reassured me that I made the right choice. You win by WINNING, lay down your cards and let the chips fall where they may. He sure killed at CPAC today.
But in any event, this is going to end soon, one way or the other. Either Trump skates on or Cruz melts him down. We'll be back to aiming at Hillary by May. Be of good cheer, you're all great Americans. This too shall pass.

My native family spanned the baby boomers from pre-boomer to tail-end, with my oldest sibling born before the war's end, my youngest sib born in 1958. But the boomers were a genuine thing, a big statistical bulge in post-war births, with a seriously monolithic culture, mostly. And that wasn't even all that solid, with the rockers not comprehending the boppers & vicy versy.
After that, there were just births every year, no bulge, and increasingly fracturing cultures. As far as I can tell. So the attempt to impose definitions seems like media marketing. Not that folks don't self-identify as this or that generation, but people self-ID as third-gender extraterrestrial furries, too - doesn't make it real.
Or am I just a grumpy old tail-end boomer tonight?

dust settles, I followed them because I generally like their tweets.
OTOH,
Cruz doing this has reassured me that I made the right choice. You win
by WINNING, lay down your cards and let the chips fall where they may.
He sure killed at CPAC today.
But in any event, this is going to
end soon, one way or the other. Either Trump skates on or Cruz melts
him down. We'll be back to aiming at Hillary by May. Be of good cheer,
you're all great Americans. This too shall pass.

Though my data "sample" is limited (at least not comprehensive), think y'all are over-reacting more than a bit to the "daywalker" thread thinggy.
Sure, I've gotten to the point where I just skip certain comments - but actually more by regulars than by any new names/possible trolls/HotAir refugees.
Have no idea which particular fracas Christy and willow were reacting to, but Christy at least has been posting fairly regularly, with pretty funny comments, on the central topic of You-Know-Who, and I haven't seen any particular reactions to her.
And there have been many very good threads, with ace in the comments, and several times lately where the Horde has "brought it" in terms of humor in even contentious threads.

Oh, yeah. I got fitted a few years ago and found I had been wearing a cup size too small. I started buying the right sized bras and I immediately looked thinner.
Thanks for the tip, Caligirl. There is a Nordstorms not far from where I live - I'll keep an eye out.
One reason I liked being young in the '80's: the clothes were perfectly suited to my body shape, which was hourglass. Fairly tall,narrow shoulders (that sucks - I have trouble keeping the purse strap from sliding off , pretty small waist, bigger boobehs and hips to match. So those 80's shoulder pads and big belts flattered me (If not the '80's the 1950's and early 1900's would have been my era.) So did the long flowing skirts with riding boots. And I could carry off the big jewelry and hair.

The ONT is for people to mellow out and talk about things other than politics. We also tend to know each other and behave as friends.
Plenty of threads in the daytime for you to pound out LIBERTY with every stroke of your keys. Perhaps you should take the night off and find a thread with the amount of anger and vitriol more to your liking.
Think of the ONT as a neighborhood bar and at this point the bartender thinks you should call it a night and go home.

Pretty much all of the places on the new strip have "resort fees". They will advertise $40 a night, but the RF can be as much as $20-$30 a night extra.
I like the Four Queens (Fremont Experience) as they have no resort fees and it's not far from the new strip. Living in AZ, it's not that long a drive for me. YMMV.

I have no real qualms about Motel 6. Good that they all take pets. But if I were going for a mo-mee in Lost Wages, I would probably try to fly from PHX or Mesa, and put the doggeh in the kennel for a day or two. Six or more hours each way on the road, for a one-evening get-together is a lot of driving. I am not a gambler.
I think Hat has said in the past that some of the off-Strip hotels and casinos are quite fine, and less expensive than the showy ones on the strip?

All the typical ONT disrespectin' the daywalkers and such. If you haven't, you owe it to yourself to go check ace's debate scorecard thread. Funniest thing he's posted since I can remember. Can't even recall if I read the comments. Anyway. Get thee and read. (hint: you will then understand "flaming clown boners")
Two. Vegas accommodations.
Well obviously The Hat is the resource on this. All I can say is that I stayed on my only visit (last year) at the Marriott place across the street from Planet Hollywood, just off The Strip. It was fine. And airline friends say Southpoint is very nice.
Three. Though it makes me feel "worthless and weak!" (movie reference?), gotta love the WWII aviation geekery here. kdabear and Stringer Davis bringing it on P-51 powerplants.
Which reminds me. First Blue Angels show of the season, as always, is at El Centro a week from tomorrow. Always interesting non-US military static displays (British Apaches and crews, Dutch F-16s, Germans), you're closer to the flight line than most shows, and of course the tiny scale of the thing (drive in, park, walk 10 minutes - boom, there you are).

Places I'd like to stay in Vegas:
- South Point
- Eastside Cannery
Where I've actually stayed in Vegas:
- Golden Nugget
Where I'm likely to end up in Vegas:
- Harrahs
- Motel 6
Posted by: qdpsteve at March 05, 2016 01:11 AM (ntObR)
Places I've stayed in Vegas: Imperial Palace, Excalibur. Reasons: cheap. Reasons why cheap: IP is old and oddly focused on Nazis; Excalibur is oddly focused on children. Bonus -- if you get a hard rain, the bottom floor of the Imperial Palace parking garage can have a 4' deep river going through it.

- Motel 6
I go to Vegas pretty regularly since my dad lives there. I've stayed at Mandalay Bay, Treasure Island, Delano, Palazzo, Venetian, Excalibur, Luxor, MGM Grand, Riviera, Golden Nugget, Tropicana, Union Station, Bally's, Circus Circus (don't ask) and Harrah's. Take it from me, you can do a lot worse than Harrah's. Good location, clean, well-run, cheap.

BCochrana and flaming clow boner (really? - doff the sock, dude!), not to worry, YouTube has been my guide for many things, including 1911 assembly/disassembly.
Just decided to "wing it" this time, see if I remembered. I didn't. Thing is, I don't fully disassemble it often, so don't have that habitual familiarity. But I think it's incremental, after this time I'll be close to doing it without notes.
Oh, and don't ask about the $*#@(@#)!!! grip bushing thing. Thank god the threads in the frame are OK (got new bushings from Midway today, got one in cleanly). Now just have to separate the screw and the bushing in one grip panel. Grips are WWII Remington Rand surplus, want to keep using them.

Nor do I like the idea of having to go to a cashier to buy a "players club card" to feed the machines with. To me, the whole attraction of slot machines is the spontaneity.

First off: It's pixels on a screen.
It's not like whoever is being mean to you is physically present. And they can be ignored. Now if someone persists and begins stalking you with not even the hint of reason then I'm sure Ace or one of the cobs will perma-ban them.
Second: It's only words.
Are you that sensitive that someone's spite, apparent anger, disdain is really that hurtful to you?
If so then you should see a shrink cause I'm sure you have even more problems in your at home personal life that need to be addressed. And sure no one deserves to be harassed but is that what a couple of comments you don't like amount to?
Third: You can go elsewhere but there's no guarantee the same thing won't happen there.
You are not required to engage with anyone on the internet. You can ignore them. If they become obsessive then contact the cobs or Ace. No need to declare you're imminent departure. Otherwise it could become a weapon against others who did not mean what you thought they meant.
Fourth: Apply to your friends here.
Most folks here if asked and they see that you are being harassed will gladly begin to heap abuse on whoever is bothering you. And that is more effective and less bothersome than the other remedies. Let the community enforce their standards. But you have to ask and that asking shouldn't be in the form of threatening to leave because that is also a negative act.
Fifth: Have you told the person to leave you alone?
If you haven't then it's problematic to haul out the big guns on them. One warning should be sufficient then you can feel free to do whatever you wish. Too many times I've seen reactions to something said where no indication of upset preceded the threat to leave. They many not know they're getting to you. Yes some people are that insensitive.
I wish I had been here earlier to address this and I hope someone else brought some sanity to the mix.
We don't need people leaving but we also don't want this place to become a freedom from having your feelings hurt kind of place.
Toughen up. Unless someone's making outright threats or cursing at you, they deserve the benefit of the doubt by you telling them to bug off or just ignoring them. If that doesn't work then it's time to up the ante and retaliate.
Leaving won't help a damn thing including you the attacked.

I suspect that patent issues are at work. So many other mechanisms used in firearms are already patented and under license that a manu has to figure some zigzags to get past them and when that happens then complexity enters the game as far as take down.

Part of the reason so many 3rd worlders love the AK. Doesn't really need cleaning to bang but it is obvious how to disassemble and reassemble.

I suspect that patent issues are at work. So many other mechanisms used in firearms are already patented and under license that a manu has to figure some zigzags to get past them and when that happens then complexity enters the game as far as take down.
It's the only rational answer for some stuff I've seen.
They know you have to clean that sucker and yet they make it like a Rube Goldberg setup.
And all you need is for one spring to go sprong into the corner of the room and you're whole day is ruint.

Here's a little tip on small spring loaded parts.
Put the assembly in a plastic bag as you take it apart. That way should something go flying, it doesn't disappear into the wild blue yonder.

Bitter Clinger, bringing the practical wisdom (as far I am concerned). Well said.
AOP, understand your nostalgia for coin slots. Though I only ever played one once, for about 5 minutes, in the Reno airport while waiting for a flight, in the late 90s.
But the visit last year (friend's birthday, group trip), we "played" at the Cosmopolitan, which was criticized earlier in this thread. I don't take issue with the criticism, we only spent time in the casino (and the restaurant). Actually, with the "player's club" or whatever, we got some amount of $$$ for the slots and a pretty good deal at the restaurant - where the food was outstanding. Better than Ruth's Chris, truth be told, the next night (nothing wrong with Ruth's, but the Cosmo casino restaurant food was superior).
Recent edumucational videos from YouTube that I've used: cracking eggs with one hand, carving a whole roasted chicken, establishing a .3-inch setback on the shoulder for 30-06 brass for the M1 Garand, using the new Lee Auto-Drum Powder Dispenser. And working my way through the entire set of "Wochenschau" newsreels the Nazis distributed for cinema viewing during the war.

Nobody is advocating "safe spaces" here, but this isn't a binary circumstance of "Ace should let us say whatever we want to anybody we want or he's another Carshel Joshnon"
These aren't special snowflakes who've just had a peak outside the coccoon, these are long time regulars here who don't want to and don't have to go through a lot of shit, it isn't worth it.
It's an old truism that a lot of people say shit to people on the internet that they wouldn't ever think of saying to them in person.
Ace has stated repeatedly that he doesn't want his place to be full of shit slingers who make any and every discussion an unpleasant place to be. Ace has laid off of Twitter because it's nothing but shit slinging offering no insight nor education and I'm sure that he doesn't want his blog to be that kind of place.

The easiest way to find a part you lost is to order a new one.

It's all about what you're using it for. Some guy went through a bunch of gun lubes for corrosion resistance and Froglube came out very well.....well, I got very excited because the conditions he tested against (leave something sit for a couple of months, light it up and use it) looked a lot like my expected usage on my mill. If I were going to religiously limit the ways every day, I'd have used something else.

Santa Monica a bad area? Naw. Pretty big, so lots of variety. But don't know any "bad" parts, in my limited experience. Haven't spent much time there in years - mostly taking visitors to the 3rd St. Promenade. La Cabana at Rose and Lincoln (1) used to be a solid border-Mex, LA-quality place.
And with that, off to bag some zzzs so as to get up in time to empty 120-150 38sp cases in the manana. Hoping more Texas Stars and steels this time - last month was almost a pure ICORE (revolver competition assoc.) qualifier match, kinda boring.

Work over a clean floor.
Work on a surface that you can put barriers up so nothing rolls off onto the floor.
Always examine the part (or drawing) to see exactly what you're taking off has attached or inside.
Count your parts. Use egg crates to separate them and keep them from rolling away.
Find every exploded drawing and description of the item being repaired that you can find/afford.
Mark the parts and make diagrams where they go in case you can't put it back together right away. (the dread extra parts solution)
If possible, screw any screws back into their hole after removing parts to work on so you know exactly where they are and where they go.
Clean everything before you take it apart and before you put it back together. Oil and Grease are cheap.
Try to work under a roof. And with good lighting.

Its original formula involved thick linseed reduction with animal fats pressed from city garbage, and several cities were paid for the privilege of having their garbage picked up for "rendering." What an enlightened society we used to live in.
I don't know when the formula was "improved" but I'm pretty sure the white lube was still non-petroleum in the early 60's, and my metal shop teacher swore (vividly, when he had to) that it was the best thing for "plate lube" where pressure but not high RPM's were the salient factor. Of course, a Bridgeport machine was still considered high-tech back then.
I have a lot of old knives. They get stored or sheathed in some places where you don't want a lot of solvents puddling around. Some of them have been well protected from rust by olive oil or vegetable oil. In their day, that's all there was.

OK, last thing. Buddy who retired from SEALS two years ago gave me a
bunch of FROG lube, which I haven't gotten to yet - I think they use it
a lot. FWIW, as they say on the intertubes.

Toot spent three years moving back to the Left from which he originated, it was when he finally went on a banning massacre that people finally realized that he'd gone all the way.
Toot isn't nuts, he's just not very bright and he was always a dick even when he was nominally on the "Right"

It's all about what you're using it for. Some guy went through a bunch
of gun lubes for corrosion resistance and Froglube came out very
well.....well, I got very excited because the conditions he tested
against (leave something sit for a couple of months, light it up and use
it) looked a lot like my expected usage on my mill. If I were going to
religiously limit the ways every day, I'd have used something else.
I'm currently shooting once a week....and I wouldn't use Froglube
for that application. I'm not quite using Mobil 1 or WD-40, yet.....

I'm not mocking. It kind of makes me laugh that coconut oil or
canola oil seems to work so well considering all the high dollar
synthetic stuff out there. My dad swore by carnuba wax for cars and
dismissed all the modern stuff.
Funny you mention the Mobil 1. I am actually considering using it to see how it does.

Things about Froglube -- (a) must apply to warm surfaces -- I put it in the oven at 175; (b) does not play well with others -- interacting with regular oil later gets sticky/gummy; (c) gets gummy when cold or left where it can react to moisture in the air; (d) does a decent job of protection when left in an unheated garage for three months during winter.

I have seen white grease, of unknown provenance, but presumably factory lube, and you which one I speak of, Stringer, used on the mechanism in hand-crank window regulators, which became hard and dry, and crumbly, like old clay. Zero lubricating properties whatever remained.
And with that, off to bed.

Mobil 1 is great as a general cutting/drilling/milling lube.

Errrrrr...it's worse than that. "Tactical Sport". It's a match pistol.
The good news is that I can use five-in-one targets at the maximum
distance at the range, so I save $4 for every 50 rounds I put through
it. I actually shoot like crap through the basic CZ-75 (though not
nearly as bad as with a Glock). [Second best, Kimber stainless 1911.]

Maybe I would do better with the latest gen of Glock, but I didn't do too good myself with the one I shot.
Posted by: Tilikum Armored Killer Assault Whale at March 05, 2016 02:32 AM (hVdx9)
I thought the Glocks I tried did well at putting lead downrange, but potential adversaries would have done well sheltering in front of the broad sides of barns. I can see why it's a favored police gun, with all the reports of hundreds of stray rounds.

In that case I'll stick with the Boob Wrangling assignment.
I was watching the setup for Kate Upton's weightless shoot and there's a clip of a "boob wrangler" making sure the puppies were properly fitted to the suit to keep the photoshoot from getting NSFW

I still think he probably had a stroke. He was one of the founding partners of PJMedia -- and a year later, everything was psycho-nutsio. A lot of people hate on him....but I can't feel other than sad.

Willow is so much a part of Teh Horde that she's got her own meme.....it would be a terrible tragedy if she weren't here. There are terrible and yuge stresses on the blog -- amply juiced by Mobys, trolls, partisans and jerks (BIRM). I can only be comforted that we have seen these attacks before in the last election cycle and have come through them together, as a Horde.

As for myself...I can't seem to gin up much interest in the primaries. I see all the anger from so many sides, and I'm just "meh". I suppose all my life events in the last 18 months contributes to that. I don't feel I have enough spare time to get mad about people who, to paraphrase kbdabear from upthread, don't really give a damn about me. I don't have the energy or interest to argue which candidate is better. I'd rather take that energy and use it to help friends and family.
And now, it's off to bed. Catch y'all later.
