    Tire Inflators

    If you have car the M12 inflator works fine with a big battery, have one for each car in the fleet. M18 will take care of anything bigger and can air things up above 100 psi, it’s a beast.

    High School Football

    The biggest difference is in Texas the best schools are public vs the private schools in other states. We do have divisions so the private schools can have their own state championships every year, but the biggest private schools would have no chance after first round of the public school play...

    Lake Mead can be hazardous to your health

    Pops up here in Central Texas every few years. I’ve noticed that it seems to be connected with the wet years more than the dry ones. My theory is that when the water gets stirred up from the flash floods there are more things to eat and the amoebae population increases. I believe that Vegas had...

    Are we gonna get any of this??

    If you look at the actual flows, it’s a lot of water for those creeks, but it’s not that many acre feet overall. Might raise Powell a foot if it flowed that direction, probably won’t even be noticeable by the time it gets to the Mississippi.

    For all you Robby/Speed fans.

    Has to be one of the best races ever.

    FLORIDA PEOPLE...... NEED SOME HELP....... Wake Sport Without Being Eaten???

    We went to Astor for a Flyin a few years ago, I thought it was a great place to do anything behind a boat. The river stayed smooth except for boat wakes for 4 days. Unfortunately once you got onto Lake George the wind was crazy and we didn’t feel like making the trip across to see the monkeys...

    When NATO attacks, will there be a war

    I believe that A10’s need need that no fly zone so they aren’t big slow targets from above.

    Re-gear

    My work truck is a 15 F350 with a 3.31 with the 6 speed auto I’ve pullled a 31000 pound gooseneck with no issues at all other than finding out I was way overweight. I would think 3.73 with 37’s would be fine. My truck handled that with no issues getting it moving or getting it stopped.

    Did somebody say rollbar? (LAM back to my old tricks!)

    That pristine water is in the mid 50’s most of the year 🥶

    2021 Dodger baseball thread!!!!!!!

    The Astros would really like to slap you guys around again without the trash can, too bad y'all can’t get there to let them do that.

    Lake Travis, TX

    We haven’t been as fortunate so far this year. Today’s showers have been killing Abilene and we will get some water from everything south of Abilene in Buchannan. May not help Travis now, but in August it will slow the drop when Travis is releasing water for irrigation. If you look at the...

    Lake Travis, TX

    With the way it’s been raining this month, I’m half expecting floodgates to be open by next weekend. Every River feeding into the Highland lakes has had a decent rise in the last week or so, that means all the stock tanks are full from Junction to Brownwood so the lakes should start to fill...

    More Hoover Dam history

    If I had to guess, I would think that those generators can make most of the power today even at the lower water levels. The dams where I work are starting our 2nd rewind in about 80 years. Due to updates that can be made while everything is apart the generators will make more power than they...

    Wild Horse Pass.

    SDBA has that race as no points so I figured some of the west coast drag boat groups were going to be having a race there that weekend as well. Sort of an unofficial national championship. Anyway, thinking about making the trip because it sounds like it might be the last race they have there.

    Smudge Pots (New)

    I found one last summer in the middle of Texas and happily paid $25 they wanted. It was just a cool toy until the Ice storm in February. I took me 3 days and about 40 gallons of diesel and oil to get the Ice off of the trees around the house before wind and the really cold air got here. i...

    Texas Power Bills

    Probably, the plants that have closed were old and I’m not sure how much longer they could have run before they ran out of coal. They were built back when you found a coal seam and built everything around it so the plant powers the mine. Not sure how much coal they had left to mine before they...

    Time for a new bank

    The local ID may be a Credit Union requirement, they have to have something that is common between all members. Frost is the biggest Texas bank on that list, don’t know if they are common that far from San Antonio. I use First United, they are regional from that area and have spread down I35...

    Texas Power Bills

    I don't know if there is any truth to it, but we have also been hearing that ERCOT sold a bunch of electricity up north and didn't have what was needed for Texas. Again, that is one of the many stories circulating. Got to be some heads roll for this, I would think. I work for a utility in...
