Welcome to the IHoP v.2

Oh, and I meant to allow the juice to soak the wick. Whenever installing new coils or wicks you should give the unit several dry hits (without firing the atty) to forcibly soak the wick, or leave it sit for ~20 minutes to do the same.

Stop posting about Kenny Chesney, seriously.     

 

Sounds like you may really enjoy his music.

 

Not his music.  Long story short, at the time, had just started dating simply one of the most staggeringly attractive woman I have ever met, off the charts and Neal you have a great idea of what I mean.  Anyway, she and her best friend wanted me and the other BF to come to his concert.  We couldn't, we had a tournament we were long since apart of we had to be in.  The good thing was that we could drive the girls on our way, drop them off at the concert a little early, play in the tournament, and pick them up on the way back.  Well, we drop them off, and later that night as we proceed to drive back to what was at the time the MCI Center in DC, we get a text message saying that we didn't need to pick them up.  So obviously we ask why.  The reply was they were on Kenny Chesney's bus enroute to the next show.  So.... you can see why it is not a positive thing for me.  If it was someone like Timberlake or Maher, I could understand...

 

I never would have guessed that he did stuff like that.

Gotta ask why it would make it 'understandable'?

And seriously Peng you are a major candidate for wool. It WILL make a difference. Unbelievable fabric.

[///M5 2,833]

When I ride my sled I wear a merino wool base layer (thickness of a t-shirt) and a thick synthetic base layer on top of it (thin fleece-half the thickness of a North Face Denali) and my breathable shell. When it was -26 I added a polar fleece and fucking sweat my ass off. Pulled the extra fleece and was fine. With a syn base I tend to get cold WAY earlier. I ring both out at the end of the day. Without moisture you can't stink. Other MONSTER benefit of wool is that if you put the same amount of sweat into it and then smell it the next day the wool will smell reasonable as in I could wear it to dinner and the synthetic like it should be thrown away.

[///M5 2,833]

I wear a Polartec base layer for pants as I can't find wool in a tall. The base layer with the liner in my snowpants is too much. I would LOVE to find a light pair of polar fleece pants to wear on top and out for dinner after on trips. Instead I have some cotton shit sweatpants that are 2" too short that were $6. Was enough today at -10F. Did plenty of full bore riding today. Overcast so the ditches were dangerous and the trails hard to see. Rode an uber shallow windy river instead.

And this shell

Which is raw shell and no insulation

If I sat still at -25 I'd fucking freeze, but when moving it is SUPER warm and dry.

[///M5 2,833]

Keeping warm is about dealing with sweat when I am doing anything.

Your lucky, I have to do 60hrs every 2 years for my updates and training. Drier than sand too.

[nem 2,019]

I used to have all woolrich before they went to china.

[Penguin4x4 1,761]

I might play around with wool someday. Too expensive, at least here anyway, to justify for daily dog walking. I'll try looking around more, though.

[topgun 262]

I've started picking up some Merino wool, absolutely love the stuff.

So, according to this, I shouldn't operate my Vita-Mix poolside. Rats.

Speaking of, I found a new frozen margarita recipe to try out. Minus all of that ice, natch.
