Hurricane - Roof - Nails

 Hurricane Ian blew shingles off our roof. Quick roofers stripped all and sealed to keep us dry until new shingles arrive. Old shingles and nails fell into our pool. With a magnet we dove to grab these 93 roofing nails underwater.. Ouch! 

Those nails hurt, and so did the roof expense. Now we need lots of soffit repair. Then screens of the pool cage are near gone. But we have no wet floors, walls, etc.

 Some neighbors were fully-flooded. Really...we were lucky.

I need repair

 I'll never dig for pool leaks again. It's fixed. But I need repair.

The Truth of Control

 Face the Truth

Mother Nature controls Climate Change.

Humans control Global Pollution. 

Screws in Tires

 My photo is the single screw pulled from my KIA rear tire (still good). 

My photo shows 14 of the 24 screws in this poor tire (not mine).

Simple Solution

 Problem: My black metal cane (walking stick) put a hole thru its rubber tip (right).

Solution: Before assembly, push a flat metal washer inside the new rubber tip (left).

We fooled the iguanas

Another great idea for Shark Tank. With technology we put 2 cage traps together to create one extended trap to nab invasive iguanas (with long tails). Secret bait - orange segments.

Dill Pickle Kills Cramps

People like me, with Diabetes 2, suffer bedtime cramps  -  at the calves, ankles, arches and toes. We rub, rub, rub – trying to massage the cramps away.  Now, I immediately eat one sliced dill pickle (soaked in sea salt and vinegar}. It’s amazing how rapidly it kills cramps.  Enjoy!

Self check for coronavirus

This info is from my friend.  I'm passing it along. The new NCP coronavirus may not show sign of infection for many days; how can one know if he/she is infected. By the time they have fever and/or cough and go to the hospital, the lungs are usually 50% Fibrosis and it's too late! Taiwan experts provide a simple self-check that we can do every morning: Take a deep breath and hold your breath for more than 10 seconds. If you complete it successfully without coughing, without discomfort, stuffiness or tightness, etc., it proves there is no fibrosis in the lungs, basically indicating no infection. In critical times, please self-check every morning in an environment with clean air. SERIOUS EXCELLENT ADVICE by Japanese doctors treating COVID-19 cases: Everyone should ensure their mouth & throat is moist, never DRY. Take a few sips of water every 15 mins. at least. WHY? Even if the virus gets into your mouth, drinking water or other liquids will WASH them down through your esophagus into the stomach. Once there in tummy...your stomach ACID will kill all the virus. If you don't drink enough water more regularly....the virus can enter your windpipes and into the LUNGS. That's very dangerous. Please send and share with family, friends and everyone.

Ford's Garage - Men's Room

 Our Lunch Bunch met at Ford’s Garage, Cape Coral, Florida. Amazing decor is everywhere (even the men’s room).  Photos show urinals shaped as beer kegs – and sinks with tires.  Gals, now you know.

Through the years, I have utilized "Fiverr.com" ...(where helpful assistance would often cost $5.)  Today  most easy gigs start at  $15 and add a $2 service fee.  Still, I'm happy with recent photo shop help from Pakistan.  But, be prepared to see gigs that run demand over $100.  OUCH!  

Humor me.....

Here's three pictures to think about .. (not very long).

Maybe we'll do posters and shirts.  

San Carlos Park Mini Storage

A long time ago we paid rent for storage locations to assist our growing business (ventures of development and distribution of various products).  As business grew, we purchased this small mini storage facility for inventory and distribution of our sport products. Now, semi-retired we rent to inventors, entrepreneurs or business that need such affordable space (an incubator).. so they can grow with their ventures. Of course we still have ideals ourselves...and we still use space.  For rental details call my cell 239-849-3882.
