Philbo Our house was originally a trailer. They added a basement and a living room. It has two very small bedrooms. We have a family of seven. We use the living room for another bedroom for my wife, myself and our five year old. No room for a couch.

My five year old has this way of creating astronomical problems for us to solve. Somehow he got his hands on a half quart of thankfully clean motor oil. He used it to anoint several items in our yard. Unfortunately one of those...

Philbo I will contact my nearest University. That sounds like a good idea. I know there are products you can use to get oil residue out of concrete garage floors but I really doubt if it is safe to use in a well. The stuff in the concrete pores is the long term issue...

Philbo That crossed my mind but burned oil still leaves toxic residue as far as I know in the well and worse it might sink to the bottom. The other problem is that the oxygen down there might run out before the oil is done burning. Good thought though because if the...

The new NBA season has started recently. I think it will be a very competitive season. Ron Artest,2004 NBA Defensive Player of the year goes to Lakers. Phil Jackson was delighted by his ability to play multiple positions. He is a...

Philbo I saw snippets of the game. Seems to me the Cavaliers spent a lot of time preparing for the Celtics and didn't come to the game as prepared for the Raptors as they should have. A lot of standing around flatfooted on both ends of the court. That's a sure sign...

Immunizations (immunity vaccinations) are nothing but outright poisons! Like antibiotics, immunizations weaken your body’s defense system and eventually make it difficult for your body’s defense system to be able to resist...

Philbo Thanks for the links. Now I know precisely what you were referring to. Very interesting. We stopped having the kids vaccinated because for the first three years of having my own family, we got them vaccinated every winter and spent the whole winter off and on...

Philbo Shontia the first part of my comment wasn't aimed at you at all. It was just an observation that so many that commented before me made it a part of the discussion.

Philbo Not sure which is the best they offer now. I've been out of the industry for a couple years now. Basic rule for reception is twofold. Bigger phones have bigger antennas and get generally better reception. Phones with stronger batteries also get better...

Yes, you heard right.. Who do you hate the most in the NBA? Hmmm.. I hate Bruce Bowen from the San Antonio Spurs! Dirty Dirty Player.. Leave your comments below..

Philbo By the way if you read what I wrote carefully, I never said I hate anybody. I just dislike dirty play no matter who is doing it. You can foul hard without risking injury to your opponent.

Philbo Rough tackles? This is about basketball not football. What's exciting about defensive plays that lead to injury? I played basketball for years and played tough defense. I often came out of games pretty banged and bruised up. The game is physical enough without...

Philbo Learn something new everyday, eh. That was the big trivia lesson the Nokia rep had for us when they gave us a presentation on their phones. They ought to make a boot phone for nostalgia sake.

Philbo Thanks. I'm back up and running again. The new tripod is a little beefier than the old one. According to the installer it is a lot more solid now even though it is sticking up even higher than before.

Philbo Getting Gilmour was one of the very few really good moves in the last thirty years. They need a player like him again if they ever intend to put a contender together. He didn't just bring skills he brought a frame of mind that the team sorely needs and he was...
