Re: Columbia Omni Freeze Shirts?

The shirt probably helps promote evaporative cooling. So, it might help a lot in hot, dry climates and not so much in hot, steamy climates.

Jumptrout ac repair

Despite all the postings on JT, I called him about my aging lennox ac, and I have to give him 4.5 stars ..... showed up the next morning and had it cooling fast and inexpensively. He lost 1/2 star on the rating for not giving up any of his numbers to a poor kayaker.

Re: Ford Mechanics

I had poor idling and changed my plugs last weekend, and it idles good now. The gaps were huge, maybe 2x the spec. That's a Tacoma with probably more than 150,000 miles since the last plug change, 328 K total. It might not stop next trip, but it's been running a long time.

Re: Captain Mikes spoons

You must have moved away from Gwinnett County before I did. I'm talking about Lilburn's Parkview High School, home of the Panthers and their star graduate Jeff Francoeur. Francouer was on 4 state championship teams, got a football scholarship and was drafted by the Braves. Was a rookie of the year ...

Re: Captain Mikes spoons

Tidedancer - I'm further from my tackle box than you are from Kevins. Man up, drive over and give Kevin some business.

I thought I got away from Panther fans when I moved from Stone Mountain. And, next time you're up north, please get Francoeur back in gear. :wink:

Re: Captain Mikes spoons

I don't remember the size, but Kevins has trailer hooks that work. I carried a new spoon over to the hooks, picked what looked the same, and they fit fine.

Re: Boat wood refinishing

It looks you get what you pay for. Epifanes Clear Varnish is the only one rated better than "Fair to Good", and it is $45/qt, and needs 7 coats. They show pictures of boards after 1 ...
