A new Lizard Lick Towing I haven't seen before. They repoed an MG Sprite car at a car show. Naturally it over heated and left them stranded by the side of the road. www.trutv2go.com Currently, 82 degrease in my flower box. Took them 15 hours to get all the electricity back on in India.

This year has been bad as well with those of us who have allergies. I don't recall it being this bad for a good number of years. |

I had a HF-1000 for a short time - poor construction quality - pretty good receiver.

Your mileage may vary. For a third of the price I would much rather have a top-drawer ham transceiver with a general coverage receiver. I have not found anything that can beat a Perseus SDR - not as convienent as a stand alone receiver but if you cut off the AGC and enable the sychronous detector it can make the weakest AM signals readable. Unfortunately, it puts my ham transceiver to shame. Jim |

I don't recall it being this bad for a good number of years. The jet stream has brought your rain here. We've had the wettest April and June on record, and July had double the recent average rainfall. The last few days have been mostly dry, but the forecasts all say more rain on the way, and it looks like it's just arrived. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All our monsoons have been shifted north by several hundred miles, resulting in flooding and deaths in N. Korea, and very very hot, very dry weather in S. Korea. Our temps have been in the high 30's C (over 100F) here.. which is totally unprecedented, as normally it can never get above 32C (about 90F) before offshore winds kick in and cool it down a few degrees. I'm gonna REALLY hate to see our electric bill this month... normally it's around US$800 for all our properties, but I expect it to be well over $1000 this month, possibly significantly more... :( Just to keep our office and one other room down to 28C. |
