Will, in one of your cooking scenarios you said wrap the fish in aluminium foil and bake for 18 minutes. The boss wants to know at what temperature should the oven be set?
She, cooked one in a pan for me and it was very nice indeed!
I use 350 degrees F.
question for you GOF's. I'm playing tomorrow and the 1 song has lots of 1/16 notes. my right hand is getting arthritic and I'm having problems sustaining 1/16's for too long. anyone find any OTC remedies that work?
I don't know if I can help but, am wondering what the song is?
Passenger vehicles will all be doing that within a could of years. Maybe it is something that you get used to. Driving habbits have to be adjusted.
From a safety point of view, what happens when you have a bad battery or the engine doesn’t start quickly.
Downtown driving sometimes requires that you move quickly. If I’m at a light and a bus is next to me on the right, public transport always has the right of way. It’s better to take off quickly to get past the bus. Not as easy now.
it's actually at church. the youth are leading and asked me to play bass (grandpa and the yoots). newsboy song, God's not dead
Beans, actually I think you have some time to return the car if it's not what you like. No matter what the dealer says there are laws to protect the consumer and car buying. There's no shame in saying that the car has too much built-in and you want a more simple model. Wife Carey would have no problem telling AnYONE if she didn't want something. Just my 2 cents...
You shouldn't have to be fighting your car to do what should be second nature by now. Car designers are just going gadget crazy with cars to dazzle the young 'uns. Just like computers. We buy our Dells from Dell Government GSA and they come what most would consider a stripped down OS. But especially with Windows 10 there are classes to train you how to TURN OFF all the "helpful features."
My car is as future minded as I want, my requirements are modest. I want to turn on the car, play some music, and get there. That's the beauty of electric cars. Almost like driving golf carts!
Good thing Carrie still likes you 
Pretty cool the provider can offer a secure connection for you. The site to site tunnel was a real PITA. I got it working on the bench in a few days. Had trouble with the ACLs and got some support under contract and resolved that very quickly. Told them what i was up to and they gave me instructions on moving it out. Moved it, followed their instructions, and it took a week on and off the phone with support to get it to go. I've got a pretty complex network. A true DMZ for web servers, quasi DMZ for servers that the VLANs have to reach (DC's, file servers, SQL, etc.), then way too many VLANs to be very much fun. I'm not working on any of this stuff after I retire.
No time to play with bugs. Put a new "brass" hose end on my water hose last spring. Funny brass, tried to get the sprayer end off a month later and even put a wrench on the hex. No go, didn't know that brass has silver colored metal under it. So I had to fertalize by the bucket. Takes forever. I would have liked to get my whole hedge row, but that alone would be hours by bucket. So I hit the weaklings in the hedge, the wife's flowers and my Wrigley Field ivy I have growing on a fence. That Ivy is really taking off. It has sprouts halfway up the fence now. I planted it late last summer. When I was a kid, I bought one sprout at a cubs game. Stuck it in the ground by the side of my parents carport and now that whole outside wall is covered.
Mr. Beans-on, too bad the new ride is frustrating. I've been in the habit of slipping an auto into neutral since I got my first one in the late 80's. I save 1 to 3 MPG according to the on-board computer, depending on how aggressively I drive and how good I am at shifting it out of D. I'm almost always city driving these days.
Does anyone know for sure if it's safe for the automatic transmission to shift to neutral while coasting? I never got int he habit of that for fear of damaging it. I played around after I got my Jeep that calculates MPG, and it easily goes up to 40 or 60 MPG, but going down hill it maxes out at 99 MPG. It's more a curiosity. I don't think I'll be making a habit of doing that. Some say it will damage the transmission, but I wonder if that is just some BS based on the towing limitations with an AT. They can overheat and they don't get lubricated well. Some transfer cases even can have problems with the bearing on the drive-shaft yoke. I remember a modification some people did so they could flat tow certain 4WD's.

A friend suffered from arthritis got pregnant and it went way and never came back. There are diets that can help.
Seriously though, you have to get the drill going just at the right speed.
If I heard the right tune and had problems with finger style, I would try to use a pick.
Park, Revers, Neutral Drive and ummm Medium Rare????
@BassmanPaul, @beans-on-toast is very correct. 350 degrees. Glad you liked your salmon! Food of the Gods!
I considered that but I pick many other body parts much better than the bass
Keith Richards has swollen gnarley fingers due to arthritis. He copes, maybe with the aid of some mother’s little helpers.
IDK if you can buy it locally, some specialty shops had it here (I think one shop was a "chain" called Natures Pharm), but trau-med, or trau-meel (same thing, same company, two names). A quick search found this injectable traumeal: [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]
What I got was a tube of ointment. The name looks the same as the link. I think it's hyphenated on the OTC tube. They had a sample out at Natures Pharm and it gave me relief from severe hand pain pretty fast, like a few minutes. I used it for a long time, maybe a year or two, then it stopped working for me. My wife still uses it. IDK if they changed it or if I built up a resistance. I believe it comes from Germany or somewhere in Scandinavia, and double the price of US made ointments. No odor, rubs in and becomes non-greasy. I think we get it at Amazon now, which of course won't work for you this time.
They might frown at Keith at church!they might frown on me using at church
That might be what you would call "a project."
https://www.amazon.com/traumeel-cream/s?page=1&rh=i:aps,k:traumeel cream
There's a knock-off now, even looks the same, Traumacare. I think we paid between $10 and $20, certainly not the $80some for three small tubes.
