The only thing I worry about is compatibility. If I want to use another computer, say at work, and save the work to a flash drive, will I be able to open it on the Mac. Or if someone sends me an e-mail with an excel or word file, will I be able to open it?
You will not have any issues opening things up on a MAC. MS Office is a common office suite for the mac and it is cross compatable. All of my internet stuff works fine too - even the porn. I think the porn is even better on the MAC as the screen is great on them. I have been a windows user since day one, but I have a MAC at home and it rocks - everything just seems to work on it....

A cat or Buddies Exterminating. They get used to the owls, and they just use the spikes for a foundation for their nest. Hotfoot works well too...

Here in CA, they have medical marijuana shops that comply with state law, only to get busted by the feds
Its kind of the same way here - except its a felony(state level) for a unlicensed person to posess weed - but as long as they keep in on the down low, there is usally no issues.
This medical thing is kind of out of control here - I see alot of these people, and there is nothing wrong with them. I dont get it - If you want to smoke some weed, why the hell would you want to be registered with the state...

Okay, I just read thru that and have a question now. We have a spicket in the garage plumbed to our water softener. We fill our freshwater tank with already softened water, so, I assume we could bypass that addition, correct??
Could be 1 reason why we have never had any problems flushing out our black tank and why the freshwater lines remain clean and clear. 
I do like the idea of adding the detergent, sounds reasonable, and we have always added lots and lots of water to the black tank just before dumping. Personally, I wouldn't want to stop using the "blue" stuff because that is an enzyme that starts to break down the waste before it ever gets to the dump in the first place, thus making it easier to flush out the not-so-solid-anymore-waste. (Sorry, YUCK!) Also, it's just plain logical to flush black 1st, then gray to help clear the lines/hose, doesn't everyone do it that way??

To answer the question - No.... It’s not about the soft water, it what the water softener liquid/powder does. Soft water is basically water without minerals in it - I don’t know if you live in Vegas, but our water is terrible (about 700 to 1000 PPM). This is why when you get nice new white clothes and you wash them a couple of times they look tinted(You can experiment with a new white shirt, never wear it and wash it a couple of times. Match with the same type of shirt that is new and you will see the effect). Even though the particulate matter is small in size it is porous, and when there are millions of them in every ounce of water they hold on to dirt and attach to items. When you dump the water softener powder/liquid in to the tanks it breaks down this particulate matter so nothing can stick to the physical object.
As far as the blue stuff breaking down the solid particles, that where the detergent comes in to play - it does that for you, and even better then the blue stuff. The bleach in the formula is what the sanitizer is - it kills germs, and better then anything else made/sold to the general public. When you go to a food establishment you would see a surprise in the dishwashers - Bleach and very hot water - That is all that is required by the health department, and what is used to clean everything(Some use Iodine).
When I fill my trailer, I use the soft water from the water softener machine from the house - It helps the soap come off allot quicker as opposed to the regular water, and that is important to me for the short showers. The reason it makes the soap come off faster because the particles are not present, so there is no "glue" to hold the soap to the skin - same thing with the tanks - the softener stops sh!t from sticking to the walls and the sensors....

Thanks Dani I will try filling with fresh water let it sit and drain and see if it helps..if not i may get a hold of ya ...thanks again..
ORR - Throw some of the softener and detergent with that watter and it will be much more effective.....
-
Just as a note, if using the geo method after using the commercial method do not use the bleach the first tank around. So0me of the commercial products contain things that will have a reaction with bleach - Better to be safe then sorry.
I used this method twice now after always using the commercial products - much better......

In the beginning of this topic there are pictures of how the road sits as of about 2 weeks ago. There are plans to finish it... back in this post. They haven't done it quite yet though.
It wasnt even touched as of this sunday - washboard all the way....
-
There is also a drain on the water heater to be left open along with the hot/cold low point drains. I have also found that using the "GEO" method on the tanks to really get them clean without having to get in there too often.

this one right buggy chick ? 
That one is a little toooo green for my turtle....

I told you guys that this guy was a "weird Duck" but you didn't believe me and look what happened. He's pushing turtle humping as a new American sport.

Wow Terry - you would have really tripped on the one I started to read before I found this one... It was about some guy finding his roomates booty beads in the dishwasher
- I got about one sentance into that and was like no way, I'm outta here. -
Yeah, WTF

Funny thing, Nick just posted this link in Cole's Corner. :mc_smiley:
Have you thought of hookin' him up with one of these?

Safe Booty Call for your turtle <<<< Click the link
Maybe this IS him.I cant tell if that turtle likes "Big Sexy Claws" though......
-
Chris did you copy and paste this from Craig's list? It sure looks like it. Is this your ad and are you for real? :mc_smiley:
Yes I did get it from Craig's List - They have a "Best of" section. I know that I'm a "weird duck", but no I dont have a turtle - and if I did I would not be getting close to his/her parts.....
This thread needs to be reported for disposal based on very very very BAD TASTE.

Really? I guess you heard the man Pete.......

My Turtle Needs A Booty Call
Date: 2007-02-24, 7:04PM EST
I have a very special red-eared slider who recently "became a man," as they say. He deserves everything his little heart desires so I'm kind of hoping someone out there has a female turtle that . . . you know, needs a little something extra. She would be one lucky turtle because my turtle is very cute with huge, sexy claws. And he is also the John Holmes of turtles.
That being said, my turtle doesn't need any baby momma drama and since he's pretty young in turtle years, I doubt he's ready to commit to anything exclusive or long-term. So I guess we're kind of talking about casual sex here but I promise that my turtle could give your turtle more respect and pleasure than the average "special friend." If you think that your female turtle may be interested, please contact me. And if you have any pictures, I can show them to my turtle and see his reaction.
Thanks!

Honestly, do gun laws being tougher really help the situation? If someone is bent and on a mission, I really think they will find alternatives to obtain a gun(s). I think education is the key to helping this issue of kids running around thinking guns are toys.
I have been out with kids a couple of times, and when I saw the look on their face when you/they shoot a melon (fruit melon) it was worth a thousand words. I think the issue today is lack of education - think about it - when you where a kid and your parents said no to something, did you not really want to do that action more? Now if your parent was to bring you out to a safe place and shoot at something and the youngster gets to see how destructive a gun can really be, it would break the curiosity "that killed the cat"(most of the time).
When I was young, my dad’s guns sat in the corner of the closet - because almost all parents taught that guns are destructive in the wrong situation, and a tool in others. Do I think that practice of storage is the way to go today - no, but the same education should still be there to show the impact of what can happen.
Tough gun laws have already been proven to be ineffective in other countries - look at Australia - The same amount of crime is still there just using a different type of method.
-
Cho was not ordered into a hospitial, so making the gun purchace legal, a teacher did tell the police about his behavior. there were signs that he was a danger to himself and others. But our own system has failed us, to many checks and balances.
You can also be charged with a felony, and still purchase a hand gun, its when you get CONVICTED of a felony, that you can not purchase or have a gun in your possesion.
Not completly true - You can seal your record and even with a homicide conviction, you may go through the process after 10years of the case being over.

if you dont call and ask they will think no one cares and they the blm can do anything they want. and no one will say one thing about it. if we all call and just ask. they will know people out there are looking at what they are doing . i have been told at the end of the year if the money has not been spent on dumont it gos to a general fund and can be spent any were they want. now if there was money that was not spent like last year and went in that fund .why are they going to double the price???? and what will dumont get.
I don't think taking this route is the absolute worse way to go... but I think it is re-inventing the wheel. Why do the same work that others are already doing?
Learning and educating ourselves is very important. We'll never be able to keep Dumont open to riding unless we get a working knowledge of how to keep it open.
But... I do think following protocol goes a long way and is much more efficient.
Yes, the BLM can answer the questions... from 60,000 different people. Or they can answer the questions posed to them by the people who represent 60,000 people and rely on those representatives to pass that information along.

I see where you are coming from - but won’t a different approach make for different results. Just as an EXAMPLE - I call there, you call there, and the whole world calls there - there is no accountability of these calls. What COULD happen is the person answering the phone just gets sick of doing that task and just you what you want to hear.
Now let’s say, a professional independent auditor exercises the right to have the books (This is public info, correct? I could be wrong) and go's over the whole thing starting with counting the number of passes purchased from the printer, then the number of passes sold to the customer, minus the voids if there are any(I’m sure there are mistakes). Wouldn’t that take any question out of making sure that everyone is honest in the whole deal, for a small fee out of the DUMONT account.
From what I was told in many instances, is that the money from the pass sales does not go in to this general fund - it is for DUMONT purposes/business only. I believe the sign on the way in states that in a short way also.
I’m in no way stating that we are being robbed - I just think in my opinion this is a simple way for BOTH sides to be represented. A business 101 approach.....
