GALAXY,
Look up tool rental shops in your area and rent a sewer snake drill....they come in different lengths. A lot cheaper than buying one. About 20.00 a day around here. Did it a few times myself:

I've got a 10 year 100,000 extended warantee on mine, but the state inspection fee isn't covered by that. I don't think the dealer even does inspections. Part of the inspection fee goes to the gas station (typically) that does it, and part of it is just another dang tax.
On a different subject entirely, Galaxy remarked: And a property through my mother, unless my father sells it first as it is his now that mother has passed. I told him to do what he thinks best regarding keeping/selling it, as will I, IF i get it. My father then made it clear to me that it was HIS inheritance, not mine. At least not yet. Maybe I will inherit, maybe not.

We set up our wills to not give full control of our estate to our daughter until she turns 28, as I recall. She's 23 now, so hopefully that day will have long come and gone and it won't matter. We made an old trusted college friend, who is himself well off, the trustee of the estate. No way I would let my wife's brothers do it - they would figure out a way to siphon some money off for themselves. (My wife agrees.)
And, we have no idea how my in-laws will distribute what's left of their estate. They're 96 and 93 and still living independently, so they're running down their reserves. They've put everything in the hands of a law firm. I suspect they feel the same way about those two brothers, and they didn't want anyone to have to be the "bad guy" in any future distributions.

Good morning, everybody. It's good to see you all.
We don't have vehicle inspections here. Sounds like the government where Mr.B lives is poking its nose into personal decisions.
After installing grab irons on 4 Northern Pacific passenger cars, I'll wait to do more of them. It's tedius work. Now, I'll work on soem track on my layout extension for a while.

Morning guys
Nice and sunny out today but a tad cool, tomorrow is going to be warm and sunny so that will be good as its my off day and have some things I want to do outside. I also have a few chores around the house that need to be done.
Not much work lately in the way of trains. In my free time lately I have been playing alot of strat o matic baseball and football. I am thinking about maybe getting hockey but it doesnt have a big following like the other two. I love hockey but dont know if I would in board game form.
Also have been playing alot of NHL 15 and Madden 15. I figure I am getting alot of exercise at work so when I get household chores done I think I earned the right to sit down for a hour or so and play some games actually I play mostly when the wife is on her laptop.
Talk to you guys tonight sometime when I get home from work
Mr. B: The IS a trust set up from my father. I am well beyond any 'age requirement'..he was merely pointing out that the chain of custody for the house was my G-ma, my mother, him, them MAYBE me{and my brother} if he doesn't sell it or what have you. It is in anohter state and neither my father nor I really want to live there, and the rental income is rather nil as the agent {required by out of state owners laws} does the bare minimum to rent it out and it is no longer in the "good part of town" it was in when my G-ma built it. Bad influences from the near by very large overcrowded city have made it a "bedroom community of bedlam" in that area.
Since neither MOH nor I have any children or nieces/nephews, and none apparently coming {remember my brother is AWAY for a long, long time}, we have decided to whom we shall leave any estate we may have. It will go to the "grand nephews" we have. Close friends of ours have an adopted son with two sons..one nearly 5 and one newborn. Those sons would be our "grand nephews". We have set it up so as they will inherit it/anything we have to leave behind when THEY turn 30, just like Prince Harry and William. We decided that as, as their mother agreed, "if we got it before age 30 we'd have blown it by then", so it is all agreed. The adopted son wiill administer the estate and see to our final arrangements fro whomever ios left behind. Since one child is 5, one is 0, we could easily live another 30 years, I'd be 80-1 and MOH 84-5, so it IS reasonable we could live that long. I don't expect to with all my health problems.
Our estate is small now, but could grow exponentially if/when the fathers die. We hope to 'grow our own' estate too in the mean time.We will, as it grows set up a trust that will spell out all that is to happen, especially if it does grow exponentially. We expect to keep as much invested as possible to keep it either growing or that we can live off the interest. Right now only a will settles things for our estate, such as it is.. And there isn't much to settle now.
My father is 80 and healthy, and could go strong another 12 years,and i'd look forward to it. FIL is now 86, and may not go so strong for another 6 years. His health is a bit questionable. and he has been sorta rampantly randomly spending some money in ways maybe he shouldn't. SO we wonder if HIS estate will last HIM. It was nice of him to buy MOH a new car for b-day, and all, but other major expenditures he makes seem rather odd to us. Of course, naturally he has the "its my money and i'll spend it the way I see fit" mentality. A new car for him would be reasonable. Ohter purchases he made, well , not so much, he could use a newer car. and his new Hybridge teeth seem reasonable, though very expensive. He'd liek to chew his food with somehting resembling teeth nad not a few straglers and ill-fitting partials. I can fully understand that as I will face the same problem too sooner than I'd like to think.
well, I gotta get going on the shower already. Im late.

Whether you believe in "global warming" or not, the forecasts are for more of what we had last year:

Mornin' everyone!
Zoe, I'll have a cup of dark roast coffee and a couple sour cream glazed donuts that i see over there.... Thank you Ma'am!
No sooner got in the shower this morning than the phone rang. I didn't hear it, of course, as I don't wear the hearing aids in the shower! Not a good thing to do with $7,000 worth of electronic devices.... It was a guy from the NMRA Division, the Member Aid person, who I am giving my old UT4R throttles to. He goes all over the country to operating events. He uses NCE (I just changed over to NCE) and sometimes needs a Digitrax throttle to operate on layouts. He is going to a group of sessions down South sometime this fall and they all are using Digitrax so he needs something to use. He wanted to buy one of my UT4Rs. I told him that since they may or may not work properly, he could have both of them.... No charge. I often go to operating sessions on his layout. He is an MMR by the way, and has a gorgeous mostly completed layout. He created the layout in Texas when he lived there and moved it to his home in Hammondsport, NY. He has some business to attend to in Canandaigua and then he is stopping in to pick up the throttles. We will go out to lunch early this afternoon.
Sun is trying to shine outside this morning. Not being completely successful though. Currently 58°F with a high of 65° later this afternoon. Fall arrived early I guess. Need to start bringing in stuff from the garden. I have about half the onions harvested, there are more green beans (some way to old to eat), possibly another zuchini or two, and a number of green (and now ripe red) peppers. The carrots can wait untill after the first frost and the parsnips won't be harvested until the January thaw.
Best get to w*rk! Catch you all later...

Morning all. Well, good news and bad news from me today. First the good news-I have been given the maximum hours that the place I work at will give an employee. I started working on a construction site trailer for my diorama of a locomotive being dug up, and I have friday night off to work on the club layout.
Well the bad news- I had to do my car inspection today-and it failed on the brakes. I told them I want the brakes done so it passes inspection today, but it's gonna be kinda pricy for me-almost 200 dollars. Well, at least I have the max hours coming my way so I can start paying it off. Well, I have to get a bearing replaced before too long as well. Last thing I needed....

Yeah, they stick a probe up your tailpipe. No, wait, that's a colonoscopy, right? You're right. No fun.
Well,
Jimmy B: ONLY $200 for brakes? I WISH I could get brakes done for that here, try more like $700.
Mr. B; I am surprised NY has not yet added the tailpipe sniffer to the inspection! When I moved to Cape Cod some odd 30 years ago, I was surprised thta they did such strange things for inspection there. I also had gotten the new plates for Mass. but forgot to put them on when i went to get the inspection. The gas station LADY said she couldn't do the inspection without the Mass. plates on it. I thought the inspection had to be done before that...oh well, i turned to her and said" do you have a screwdriver?", like she was going to say NO. and I changed the plates. It passed. It should have it was only 1 or 2 years old at the time.
It is nigh on 3:30 here, I will wait til 4-4:15 pm then call the plumbers and see how "late" the "late drain cleaning" will be tonight. I had also asked about a furnace servicing, he said to discuss it with the guy when he gets here. I happened to get a card for a $79 inspection/servicing coupon from a competitor we have used in the past. If this company's price is higher, I will ask if they take competitor's coupons? Can't hurt. Otherwise i call the competitor and have them do it for the $79. The drain plumber is supposed to be at an installation nearby town and I know how those can go..easy or hard and long. I just will call to be sure I haven't been forgetten.
later,
dinner will be MOH bringing home a Subway sub...I don't feel like cooking as I have had a headache/migraine at times for a week now. I couldn't take my script today as I'd likely sleep through the plumber!
Good afternoon. It's 87° with 66% humidity. The high will be 88°. Cloudy. A slightly better than fair chance of showers and thunderstorms. with In and out of the hospital , no problems with that. Got a case of dry mouth that you wouldn't believe. Gotta go back tomorrow.

Somehow my nephew found a GOOD heavy duty triple core radiator for my van. It's from a scrap yard and they want $65 for it. A new one costs $200. As the son of a confirmed cheapskate I already know what my fathers answer will be. $120 - $65 = $55. He'll buy the cheap one (used) and call it a great deal. I know how scrap yards test these things. They put a tight cap on it, plug the bottom hole, put a plug with an air line connector in the top hole, pressurize it and sees if it leaks. I've bought one of these before. Didn't leak with just water. However when anti-freeze was added multiple leaks appeared. Being a smart guy who knows a bit about cars I already had the solution. Two raw eggs did the trick and that radiator never leaked again.
RB,
Good Luck with your procedure tomorrow. Prayers are with you!

Evening Dinners!
Flo please
Not a bad day off! While I started out slow and took 2 naps I did get engauged later in the day! After the little running I had to do I worked on the rear patio. Like I have said before I have not gave hoot about the house for the last three to four years. So to say I have a mess is a understatment! While it still looks like a abandoned house in back. But I am making some headway.
Wife does not help a bit! Her idea of cleaning the patio is to push off everything off to the side. If she would only pick stuff up and throw it away. So the edge of the patio becomes a big Composting Pile! She does not believe that the leaves and twigs she pushes off to the side becomes dirt! Then stuff starts growing in new dirt and makes the problem worse.
Filled up a 30 gallon trash can with the stuff! Then filled a 20 gallon can 1/2 way before I was done, Me not the patio. Threw my right shoulder out throwing the can in the back of the Town Car. I will dump the stuff in the woods behinde work so it can keep rotting.
Ulrich There are two way to messure my garage. The part that my current layout is in (takes up 75% of the floor spaces) is 19 foot wide and 17 foot deep. If I knock out the storage room it would be 25 foot deep. My problem is I need to stuff this into the garage!

Mine is a 1968. If you would like I will send or post a scale drawing on the garage showing the garage door and doors in to the garage and outside.

Hi all,
Just about done moving into the new place...........and already planning a new three deck layout.
Duplicate post
Thats the second time your post came up Jeff.
well, the plumber came and went. Did his things too.
FIrst he came to do the kitchen drain, he used pressure hose, seems to have worked. That cost $130. He pointed me in the direction of some bio-degrading grundge eating enzime/bacterial stuff. At $50 a can should last all year. So I bought it.
Then I asked about the servicing of the furnace. He showed me a whole row of services offered, but the cheapest was $139. I got a post card from another company offering a 21 point inspection, cleaning and check service for a mere $79. I usually have them do it. I asked if the honored other competitors coupons, so he checked with the company, and sure enough he'd do the furnace for $79. Total bill was $277 and change. already in the budget.
He was QUITE surprised to see the pressure switch and the induced draft motor were replaced. I pointed out so was the igniter. I told him why, but not which of his well known competitors did the over $1k damage to the furnce the first year it was put in by using BATHROOM silicon caulk on the roof to "seal the roof jack {chimney} to the roof". I'll bet he was wondering which one, so I pointed out the obvious: it wasn't his company and it wasn't the company with the coupon! SOme of you may remember my rants about THAT form a couple years ago!
Tonight or tomorrow night is frost night. First of the season. tomorrow high about 62. if it stays sunny, will feel good.
Tomorow I have an appt. Wiht the Mental Health therapist. I feel like calling it off and saying "I don't feel any different", but she is concerned because depression set in about the automobile accident. SPeaking of which I stop by the office of my agent and he should have the application they cliam they sent twice and I maintain I haven't gotten it yet. I said "fax it to my agent I will get it there and fill it out and have them fax it back to you". I got shot down on that routine ONCE already by the insurance company-some dolt who didn't know better onthe other end of the line! SUre, sure, I am in good hands.....we shall see about that.
Gotta file new application for "extra help" for script program, which I will get booted out of now that MOH makes more money, too much now, but they say they have other programs I might get. Either way: 1} the SSD check will go down as they pay the script insurance company now from my check for scripts part D; 2} my cost for the 26 prescriptions is going to go UP 3} I was told by SS on the phone to "find a new script plan to cover the differnces" but NO GUIDANCE on WHERE to find such! everything I try turns up Obamacare, which Is NOT what I want! I don't qualify having Medicare. I am covered til Dec, then I will be in a pickle,.SOme meds have gone to some sort of OTC and I may have to fork over THAT money instead of low-low cost scripts.
I am currently covered until Dec 31, 2014. COme January {actually March if I can get 3 month supplies laid in in Dec.} I will have to decide which meds to take that I can then afford and which I will just have to suffer without. My Doctor{s} will NOT be happy.
Being married has its drawbacks, so does MOH working more of a steady job{s} with more {low, cheap} income! It throws me{us} out of a lot of programs I once used to have.
Paying off a hefty sums of debt between this month and next month, that will help some, but by march with the income tax refund I want all bills down to $5k on the one loan only. That will shave off a cool $9k I hope! If I diligently saving as I have, and get the counting-on B-day and xmas gifts of CASH. That loan only remaining can be paid off over the year next year, and maybe we can finally save some...too, or put all to paying off the debt and retire it sooner.. Its all from when MOH was under employed or Unemployed ansd was denied benefits.
They don't allow much for having assets at the SS dept.
Well, I'd best get to bed.
early to bed. early to rise, may make a man healthy and wise, but not so sure about wealthy! actaully in my case, not sure about healthy either. Just makes for a tired beginning of the day.
Good Morning Folks!
Nice weather outside, sunny, a few clouds and not too warm - that´s the way I like my weather!
Janie, just some coffee, please, lunchtime is coming up rapidly and Petra´s cooking up something smelling awfully nice! Speaking of cooking, Petra quite often asks me "what would you like to eat (fill in date)?" I never come up with an idea that moment, so I prepared a kind of table, listing the main ingredient, i.e. potatoes, noodles, rice, etc and branching of to the various kind of dishes which are based on those. This table revealed, that, despite having some 70+ dishes on it, our usual fare consists of "only" 20 different meals. While I am fine with this, Petra was not really happy with it - "we always it the same stuff..." Yes, we do, but I think most families do.
She promised to spend time at the `puter searching for new ideas
I have got way too much time for bad thoughts. I am having second thoughts on that modular set-up of a switching layout again. The last three layouts I built were switching layouts and frankly, I think I had my fill with them. I don´t want another layout where a loco plus some cars more or less shuttle back and forth. OK, if I build them according to Fremo standards, I could have them integrated into the Fremo meets, but they are only twice a year, out of which I could attend only one (the other one is too far away). That´s not enough. The big questions is how to have continuous running in no space at all ...
???
No clue how I can achieve that.
Have a happy one!
Good morning. It's 71° with 100% humidity and dense fog. The high will be 88° and cloudy with a fair chance of showers and thunderstorms. with Gotta go see the doc again. One day follow-up. Woke up this morning feeling like my van was parked on my left leg. I seriously hurt! I had a quick breakfast then took some Cipro and hydrocodon and now I don't care about the pain. I feel like I'm miles above it. I'm just waiting on my sister. No way am I driving anywhere feeling this good. I usually don't use pain killers at all. Most times I just ignore the pain. So you know it's gotta be INTENSE for me to be using them. For me the sooner we get there the better. I wanna see how much he jacked around with my wound. Be back later!
Good doc visit this morning. Got the dressing on the surgical incision changed and got good look it. There's about twenty stitches starting at the wound where the big toes was and ending just short of the ankle. No deep wound areas. Had a couple of close calls though. I nearly lost my balance going up the front steps to the docs office and I very nearly fell over backward twice inside the building. Gotta go back there Monday. My nephew pulled the radiator out of the van yesterday so he can compare it to the one he found. I hope it matches.
Well, it´s just the two of us in here today, Jeff!
It´s been a slow day on my end as well. Didn´t get anything done, so I better call it a day!
CU tomorrow...
Afternoon guys.
Nice day for my day off today.
Galaxy: I was just skimming over past posts and I see your having some drain issues. A plumber once told me that the drain cleaner in crystal form is very bad for pipes as it will almost turn to a concrete but said the liquid is usually safe as long as its flushed well. I find now just boiling a pot of water and poring it down keeps things moving well. Our bathroom sink is slow to begin with so I always make sure to run hot water after using soap. I find its the sopa that is mostly the problmes.
Didnt do much today aside from relax and play some video games. I also orderd strat o matic hockey and it is suppose to be here Friday. I get more enjoyment now out of table top sports games then video sports games.
Well off to get some dinner
Evenin' folks!
Been a busy day here in the Finger Lakes.... I know, so what else is new. At least I'm not sitting around twidling my thumbs or palying with trains or sumpin' like that...
Started the day (after I got up, showered and had breakfast) with a meeting with the District Executive for the Boy Scouts. He brought over a pile of handouts for Cub Scout aged boys. They will be given out at the "joining event" we will be having at the local Boys and Girls Club in town. He will be visiting the Parocial School on our behalf and there will be a PAWS club event at one of the Schools as well that we will be part of. Then my son showed up and we took my little trailer down to a local tire store to get the annual inspection done (seems to be a lot of that going around). It had two wheels with tread on the tires, all the lights worked, and the hook up to my son's car was all good and proper so it passed with no problem. I also got to chat with the manager of the place. His younger brother was one of my first students when I moved to Geneva. He now is a major entertainer in Las Vegas and has a photo of me directing the 6th. grade chorus the kid was in at the Middle School. I, of course, was directing the bunch and he is the only kid in the shot not watching me..... He points that out in the caption. The guys Professional name is Ron Pass, BTW.
I made up a nice large bunch of stuffed green peppers for supper tonight, and I am now waiting to get online for Skype call for the Region NMRA Board. Our big business meeting for this time of year... We have a lot of stuff to do as we didn't meet at the convention last April. Wrong, just looked at my calendar... The call is next week. Well at least I know my set up will work...
....... Later!
Good evening Everyone,
Not much happening here in the high desert of eastern Nevada. Just sitting around waiting for the rain to come....which will probably never get here. Currently 86 degrees and 65% relative humidity and partly cloudy.
Had an interesting day at work today. I deliver lunches for Meals on Wheels of our county. I drive 70 miles a day and feed between 35-40 home bound seniors and deliver to our most northern senior center. One of my home bound seniors, who will be 80 here in a week or so, just came back from Las Vegas after having his cancerous kidney removed two weeks ago. So he asks me to get him a few things from the Family Dollar and the grocery store. He gave me a list and the money. I got him the items from Family Dollar and some frozen meals from the grocery, but I wanted to wait until today to get his fresh meat. My boss finds out that I am doing this for him and called him up and started bitching at him for it. I do it of my own free will! Anyway, apparantly I am no longer allowed to get him groceries or anything. My boss and most of the other people in the county can't stand him because he is an old curmudgeon....I get along great with him. I think it is not right that they won't let me get him so groceries, but they do the exact same thing for other people. Heck, I drop off and pick up one womans meds every week. I pick up another womans mail two to three times a week (we have no home delivery out here!) So tomorrow I am going to call out the boss lady and tell her what is good for the goose is good for the gander. If I can't get him groceries, then no one in the county should be getting other things done for them either!
Uggghhhhhhhhhh! I need a !

Flo, Beer and get P&SLoacl one on my tab.
P&S That does sound odd. I thought the idea is to help all older folks?
Work Read a lot and sold a few things so it was not bad. Made a few extra dollars but nothing to brag about.
Workout Had another pretty good one. Incresed weight on all exercises. Had some strain on the back while curling so I really need to get the weight belt to fit! Dennis gave me a idea when he spoke about the tie down straps. I have my old seat belts from the back seat of the Road Runner. I don't think anyone will be sitting back there again, and there are three sets anyway. About the same sizes of the weight belt. Just need to find some way to join them, pop rivets maybe?
Ulrich Did you see my post I think it was yesterday with the sizes of my garage? If not, let me know and I will post it again.
Time Team Anyone here watch it besides me?
See you all Thursday!
All day today I've been watching American Ninja Warrior on the TV. Suddenly I found myself in competition Upon standing I had fallen and getting up was quite the ordeal. My prosthetic leg had come off and I pulled it out of my pants leg and set it aside. Then I removed the leg cuffs and put them back on. I was tempted to grab the phone and call for help but that to me would be admitting defeat! I wouldn't be doing that! I wrestled myself up onto my knees and knee walked over to my computer chair. Placing my hands side by side on it I straightened my arms and lifted my 227 pounds up onto the chair and claimed my victory!Once I was on the chair I was able to get my leg back on and pull myself up to a standing position. Anybody who thinks that isn't a major workout should try it sometime. I hadn't done that much work since my rock climbing days of climbing El Capitan. Once I had my leg back on I was able to straight leg it to the bedroom. I sometimes wish I could still compete in events like Ninja warrior. Sadly those days are far in the past. Those people are in their world and I'm still stuck here in mine. But I have the satisfaction of knowing I won my competition hands down.Today My nephew and I installed the new radiator in the van then started it and let it run for an hour. The temp gauge never rose above the 'C' on the gauge. The engine now runs very well and has plenty of power. My nephew drove it over to the north side of the circle and punched it and burned the tires. He left two long black marks and quite a bit of tire smoke. It's got some years left in it yet.I told him the idle may have to be increased. His back started to arch up and he tried taking a swing at me. That was the last straw! He got nailed across the back with my cane then his feet were jerked out from under him and he was thrown to the ground. He looked up at his mother an exclaimed, 'Why did you do that!'. He had been warned about trying to hit me.Nothing more tonight. See y'all tomorrow.
