    Good afternoon folks. Changed oil in the wife's Charger today. Then sawed up some wood for my neighbor to fix his wheelbarrow. Cleaned up some mulch beds and cooked some chicken on the Blackstone. Riding the couch now.

    I'm hating the 2 step verification process to like a post. I assume a part of the sites ongoing meltdown.

    A quiet Saturday. Took my Dart to a cruise in that had a smattering of cars. Today after our Sunday Kaffeeklatsch , I used the MF to move my neighbor’s collection of derelict “it was running when I parked it” cars from his yard to behind his barn. Actually just some that are in view from the road. They were all there at least twenty years. I recall him driving some.

    he is in his 90’s and just cant part with them. There were a couple challenges, but they came out of their spots. Also used the front forks to move a centrifuge from beside his house. Why he bought that at an auction is beyond me. Had a couple junk trees growing against his house so we cut them out.

    his son is surprised he agreed to move the things, but the idea of mowing that area won him over .

    All y'all's problems with the website is strange.

    I had 1 morning last weekend (not this past weekend - the one before) where it did not load at first. I went to another forum, came back when I was done there and FHC loaded. It was a bit on the slow side (not a huge deal) and asked me once to confirm that I liked a post. but, I also had slowness issues on another site, so assumed there was some strain on some servers somewhere.

    I've had no issues at all with FHC since then and the site has been normal speed.

    It gets worse and we get no help fixing the problem. Another problem has begun and that is getting a message posted after hitting "Post Reply." That has happened 4 times already today along with the other problems.

    Had the Amish fence crew back out today to build more goat fence. Got the watering posts installed last week and finished hooking them up to the water supply yesterday. Too stormy this evening so I'll move them out tomorrow.

    Date night with the wife tonight.

    Got a mile-long list of projects...just need a few more hours in a day and I'll make it.

    The site has functioned poorly a lot today, and seems to be getting worse. I'm not an IT guy. What is needed to fix this ongoing issue?

    Drinking the Honda Kool aid I see. Both generations of the Ridgeline are made on the Odyssey chassis. They added a subframe on the Odyssey chassis for the 2nd generation and it's more robust than the Gen 1. It's ok. It doesn't bother me. It's still a unibody chassis.

    I like to call unibody "trucks", trucklets. A suv is known to have a body on frame construction, when they first came out. Crossovers used to only have unibody construction. Then the lines became blurred about when the jeep Cherokee (xj) and zj grand Cherokee arrived. Those were unibody. It's confusing for some people.
