And I ordered two from MP that took three months to arrive. :eek: Was some terror thing going in the EU and air freight was halted, they ended up on a ship that went to NY, then they got held up at the Panama Canal then on to the port of Long Beach in CA. 3 months. Was not Miha's fault but still . . .

I ordered a shifter cable for the Jeep. Monday.
Was not supposed to be here till way after Easter.
Was supposed to be in South Korea.
Went from Cleveland to Akron yesterday. Was on my doorstep today.
Well headed into work a bit. So guess that means I will be puting it in Saturday, the day before Easter.
Yet I have ordered stuff that was supposed to be in Cleveland then watched it take a tour of the country. By two different delivery services, for a month.
Kinda miss the old days, before tracking. When you sent an order form with a check in. Forgot about it. Then when it arrived It was like a surprise Birthday gift.

Batteries are different now . You'll start up fine drive somewhere shut it off and and it's deader than a doornail . Jump it it shows good charge and it'll hold for a back to back start but 6 hr pass and it's dead again . Of course it might be a starter , solenoid, or the left rear running light ......

AKA, a "surface charge".

I drove to Grants Pass this morning to have breakfast with my granddaughter.
It`s getting to be a regular Wednesday thing.
She gave me a cherry tomato plant that she had started.
I picked up a couple more primroses.
Heavy rain has come back for a couple of days to put a stop to my outside projects.

done a re-plant of a bunch of seeds.
i noticed many of my seeds are from sell by 2009 the newer ones are more like 2020.
i've been using my own saved seeds recently, but i didn't know it had been that long, guess we'll see what comes from this batch.
then i fell asleep... yeah that wiped me out.

I grow veggies commercially. Our experience over years is that it does not pay to keep old seed, depending on variety that means 2-4 years. Been there and done it, I'm as cheap as the next guy trying to save money. Don't do it.

Old seed has reduced germination and you will notice that if you pay attention. However you may consider that old seed makes weak plants with low vigor. The little plants lag behind and that will hurt you.

There is a true saying in my business: "good seed does not cost, it pays".

California's Central Coast Amid The Insanity
Yesterday morning's head, and head and neck CT scans proved that I have a brain and it's in the correct place, after all, and that they function and look exactly as they should. However, the doc can't explain why I get the super intense, come on instantly, hang round for almost exactly one minute, then disappear just as instantly, two, three, or four times and hour "thunderclap" headaches. There are no other associated symptoms or side effects, just a one minute debilitating headache.

Image an ice cream/very cold drink brain freeze, then multiply it by a factor of ten.

The doc prescribed Sumatriptan and will see if it helps.

Man, they hurt!!

I have Chronic Everyday Migraine for ten years now.
Amitriptiline has been the miracle drug as a preventative. I spent 8 years trying the wrong remedies from the wrong doctors.
Mine were like a brain freeze that only went away during sleep.
I hope you get better!

I cracked the MagPro bottle Open and searched my manuals.

Im loading the Federal Terminal Ascent 155g bullet. So NO DATA!

Its a composite bullet. Meaning a-tributes of a solid copper and a bonded cup n core bullet. It is very long for its weight. Its longer then my 175 Sierras but has a long tapered boat tail so bearing surface is not longer.

I decided to use Barnes data as it was lower then all three other sources I have. Barnes had a 150g and a 160g 2 grs apart. So easy! One grain more then 150 and one less then 160. Reduce 10% and work up!

Also I seated to 3.30 not the 3.24 suggested. This still allowed me 20+ from lands. Further increasing case volume from Barnes recipe.
