    Teach me about wireless bridge.

    RSV vaccine

    You mean like yourself. Colloquial does not mean acceptable, for instance, saying " you lie like a dirty rug" is colloquial, but not acceptable. Selective quotation without context, or providing false context, is also misinformation.

    Reel mower for taller grass.

    When I was in college I ran a Locke tri- plex reel mower for a summer cutting lawns. That thing was a beast, but it made a lawn look like it was out of heaven. Even as a pool table and striping was perfect.

    Henning gone west

    I never would have thought a resourceful, independent guy like Cap would do himself in, if indeed that's what happened, over money. I hope it ain't so.

    Henning gone west

    Henning gone west

    I remember talking to him about mortality and how many myriad ways we have to leave this life. His opinion was" we all have to die of something, might as well be in a fiery crash." I hope he went out in a blaze of something. RIP, Cap.
