Okay Kobuk I know you are pro Dew, but dang it! No coke at slime-way? I mean sub way?

I loves me a frosty coke!


My good news? I now own a working piece of test equipment that still costs $8000, plus a calibrating kit costing $5000 and a noise source that costs $2000. Holy cow man!
The noise source cost me a few hundred,  the test equipment was free i just had to repair it.  And the calibration kit was almost free.  I even have an accessory item costing another$4000 ( i paid one hundred) I just had to repair a bad connector!!  It is scary I have stuff supposedly costing almost $20,000 sitting in a room... and i paid only about 300, OMG. What a burden to take care of this stuff! And thing is,  every few years, if I don't replace 2 special batteries,  the main item dies forever.  I have to do a special thing when switching in new batteries to preserve memory.  I've done it once and idk if I can do it again!

With all this junk,  I can do measurements of things most people can't.  I could turn this into a small time side hustle.  I could charge a small fee to test items etc and provide measurements.
Worst case is sell it individually for what I listed here.  But this junk is a one in a life time set. What a dellimma!!

I'm addicted to buying damaged test equipment, repairing it,  etc.
I need to stop!! :goldlaugh:

Hi Rocket ,
Sounds like although that's a bit of dough, it's not bad.
To do my front wheel bearings,  the parts cost is at least $250 and it takes me 2 hours work and I know what to do etc. 
Glad you got that fixed before it seized up!

My bad news is... seems I have no friends anymore.  And work is habitually demanding 12+ hour days 5 to 6 days per week.  Duration unknown.  I'm tired.

I've been taking glucosamine chondroitin with msm, type 1 and type 3 collagen, type 2 undenatured collagen,  gelatin.
Knee pain reduced a whole lot. Knee function much improved.  Still have cartilage damage from arthritis. I'm 7 year old dog.

My claws are affected too.   There is a growth line on all of them,  they are thicker and stronger there,  it's amazing.  No side effects.
Kneeling is still hard.  Deep bends still problematic.
 
Was I just not eating enough of these things and I lost knee cartilage?
I was at the point of not being able to do stairs,  walk, or bend.

I was told eating chicken sternum cartilage is best thing for me.  Where to get this?

It was on my "maybe" list this year but logistics didn't quite work out. Have fun!

But for other people who like Coca-cola beverages, then too bad, so sad. Cry me a river.

I've been driving with a bad front wheel bearing likely for months. It was thought to be tire noise. Stopped into 3-4 garages to get it checked--no dice. Took it into the shop where new shocks were installed. Set me back $440 as I had premium grade bearings installed.

Was able to get me some rueben sammiches during the plant luncheon this week. My cost was $5 and I contributed 3-2L bottles of pop.
