    I found the band Dorothy from the Halestorm Channel on Pandora. One of the better parts of Pandora is finding new bands through their similar playlists.

    Yes I have Kodi on all of my systems (I haven't installed it under *blows, just Linux and Android) I try to stay away from *blows in any flavor even though it is on the flip side of this system.

    I have a good collection of systems and all of them run Linux. Two of them(there are 8 that run Linux) can run *blows both of the I7 boxes came with *blows. All of my ARM processors run Linux full time. Three of the ARMs are used as routers.

    I have OS X, Windows and Ubuntu these days. I see no reason to go back to fedora or mandrake anymore.

    We use an Apple TV and amazon fire tv stick. I’ll see if I can get it on the fire stick it’s already rooted. :whistle:

    Driveway & paths all cleaned off, and sun is doing it's job....they're all clear already. Just took a nice shower, now it's time to settle down and wait for Daytona 500 @ 2:30. Go Harvick, Larson, & Logano (my picks for this years fantasy league ....I won it last year).

    7" here possibly more got it done this morning and just finished the neighbors as they must be outta town, he has on long driveway ! and a lot off to the side. He always hits the bottom of my drive if he knows I am at work good guy.
    Stoves are shut down going to do serious clean on both of them once they are cooled off then take a nice hot hot shower I can't wait.

    Last night about 9:30 something struck me and I decided I wanted to take a stroll in the snow so I put on my Muck's and hit the road. Walked a mile or so then up into a field a local farmer and good friend plants corn every year and then into the woods through the hills.
    I forgot how much I love to do that and it was spectacular for clearing the mind and taking in the wonderful surroundings. I get so damm lost in work I forget what a great place I live in and its always available for enjoyment. After leaving the woods I found a road and walked another hour to get back home, finally made it back in around midnight. Good Times

    Thank you Pete, I'm going with the red Permatex above :) I will go scant on the silicone Rich250 , I appreciate the advice and too bad I did not think of taking a picture of it, paper thin bead from the factory :eek:

    This is my first pellet stove, so I didn't realize the ash pan was small, but it does fill up quickly (sometimes overflow it). I came here for help to choose one and holy cow all the members were so nice (& super funny) and helpful with choosing/educating me. I ended up with the Eco-65 in big part because of the strong blower after the guys helped me narrow it down to a few choices. That said, the blowers are really loud in here (living room & kitchen combined, our stove is not ducted), but, we're warm, and less $$ than propane AND wood stove at our previous home. Agreed cleaning is a pita, and I cannot brush the exchange tubes so I have to wait to do it when husband will be around.



    Scotch tape :cool:
