  1. Automotive has gone the same way. You test a failed circuit and you know that it is just a $10.00 relay; but that relay is incorporated inside a module assembly. Chrysler has had issues with their TIPM (Totally Intergraded Power Module) it controls all secondary electrical systems. Things like lights, heater/AC, power windows and so on. Talk about a hard sell. Well we found out why the left headlight isn't working. It's the TIPM and it'll cost you approx $1200.00 to have it replaced. There's usually a few moments of silence on the phone; before I hear a very loud WHAT! Like what one of my instructors told me years ago and have had to use his line many times. I didn't design it, build it or buy it; I'm here to fix it; sorry for your luck. Dan.

  5. And now I feel like a bit of a crap. I just dropped off the box and away it goes. Same lady was absolutely golden. Must’ve just been an off day. I guess we all have them. And perhaps I was having one too.. I think it’s all too easy to forget that everybody else is struggling with covid and work stresses also.

  6. I don't mind catching fish but I have a problem with guys invading a fishery, hammering it, killing lots of fish, the big ones at that, educating fish thus making them harder for the locals to catch, zooming around the place at warp speed and basically doing so without paying for the use of a public resource. To me it's like the Argos turning up a Edwards Gardens playing a ball game collecting money for tickets and leaving a huge mess while not paying a dime for the property. The idea of watching a guy's fish sack is a remarkably lame "event" that eludes me totally. I admit that the fishing series where the guys play 3 periods, release all fish immediately and is a restricted field of anglers is at least somewhat watchable. They are great anglers to be sure but fishing is a hobby or pastime not an athletic performance and as such the least they can do is pay their way if and only if the locals approve.

  8. Some Canadian guys are making money bassin' in America. Personally I hate the idea of "pro bassin" but I guess it is legal. Your favorite fishing lake covered with 200 pro anglers and hoards of followers in boats seems like a nightmare to me but they can get people to pay to watch guys show bass at a podium so truly there is one born every minute.

  9. True. All you have to do is spend $250,000 to get it.

  10. Bass are the easiest fish in the world to catch, why would anyone need such an expensive lure to go after them ? 😁

  11. agreed...easy peasy. I have no mechanical skills but winterize it myself. Like others said..I change the upper oil and lower oil, run stabilizer through it for a few minutes, change the oil filter and I also pull the plugs and spray some fogging oil in there. Been doing that every year for 7 years and have never had an issue. Going to replace impeller this year just in case, but these are things a 2 stroke would need as well (due to lack of skill I will pay someone to do impeller)
