  1. I believe that, but not as 100% of the reason. I think I like the sewn on soles as well, or better anyway. My boots are "Made in USA with imported materials", so they're not the vibram soles, and they really don't look like they're sewn on, but glued. What ever they used on them must be pretty good though, they're holding up better than any other boot I've ever had in the past. The only issue I have with them (other than the fit being wrong) is that I have worn through the toe of the outsole, from kicking the lifts out from under cars with them all the time.
  2. Yeah, either their old mechanical measuring machine or the operator of it got mine wrong and had me in too big of a boot. They now have a computerized machine that will tell what insoles will work best for you, too. I have some of their replacement insoles that are pretty awesome, even in a poorly fitting boot. I'm probably going to be replacing the boots soon. Also, they told me that the footbeds (insoles) should be changed every 6 months or so, because they are what take most of the wear and tear of walking.
  3. I have a pair of Redwing 4406 right now, they're holding up well, but not as comfortable as they SHOULD be, probably because they just don't fit quite right, they're a little too big. I should have argued with the sales guy and gotten the right size. I'm thinking about trying the 2206 next time, which looks to be the same boot with thinsulate.
  4. To answer the original question: because Coshocton County has one! Just saw it on the news. If I missed it in the replies, sorry, tl:dr.
  5. Better than what it did in the video, where you kicked it about 100 times!
  6. I'm going to try to make this one, if I still have any rubber left on my rear tire. If I do, I'll be riding in the back of the pack, not because I ride a 250, but because the tires are pretty badly worn.
  7. The first thing I saw that is wrong is the CAL on the license plate!
  8. LT1000 with a 17.5 Briggs and Scrapiron? (That's what I have, and it has been a HUGE PITA for the past couple year.)
  9. Midget hookers. Duh! Mexi-midgets maybe?
  10. Yeah, I have a similar piece of crap. It's not doing so well at getting me by. I work on it more than I get to use it! I have a cylinder head coming for it now! I have to put air in the tires every 15 minutes when I'm using it, too.
  11. I have to agree with you there!
  12. Exmark, Dixie, Kubota, Scag, all make a good commercial product. Grasshoppers aren't bad, and Bobcat mowers are decent, too. The biggest thing is what engine you get. The Kohlers and Kawi's are good for gas, and Kubota for diesel.
  13. Go through a foreclosure... They come after BOTH. When I went through one (while I was still single) they sent an extra copy of everything addressed to "unnamed spouse of..." even though there was none.
  14. I only backup the files that I need, to another drive, manually. I don't do it as often as I should, either. For the few things that I might need remote access for, I save them on Google Drive, or one of the many other cloud services that are free. For one group that I share stuff with, they setup a Dropbox, which I can get from all of my devices, and sync with my PC. It's not so much for a backup solution, though. I setup our budget and checkbook register spreadsheet in Google Drive, shared it with my wife, and we're always on the same page on that stuff. Basically, what I'm saying is that I have multiple solutions in place for multiple portions of what I need to backup.
  15. I need to find a way to get some tires for the bike before then.
  16. That sucks. I had Windstream in Newark several years ago, and it was FAR less reliable than Time Warner has been for me, and I wanted JUST DSL, no home phone, but it was cheaper to keep the phone back then. I'm would hope that their quality has improved. For TV, I've been with Directv for about 10 years, and even though they aren't exactly "cheap" and the rates do keep going up, I have tried out the others (Time Warner, Dish) and did not like either.
  17. Call Time Warner and get on a current promo price.
  18. A used VFR, quite possibly the RWB anniversary edition. The rest would go for fuel and maintenance.
  19. I highly recommend this guy: http://www.abrushofclasspainting.com/ That is IF you have to pay to have it done.
  20. And this is why we can still be friends. I have to admit that I have had itunes installed on my PC, only to help out a friend that has an iPhone. The phone is on my account, or I would have told them to pound sand.
  21. Looking into it further, the RAM is upgradeable, but you have to replace, not add. Has 2 slots, ships with both filled.
  22. And Pauly delivers again! Funny, but fairly accurate, and definitely not politically correct!
  23. So many potholes... Most of the major slab routes are bad, unless they've been paved in the past few years, from what I've seen. Ugh...
