That would bring sbxx back. We all mixed up your homebrew crap thinking you knew what you were talking about. Boy were we wrong. I had those squirt bottles from the diner and everything

He is a new mod in the 33. I think he was locking it before the twitter crew started trolling

Lock this thread? It hasn't been locked since he who cannot be named was here. (Kitten cleanup excluded)

This is the thanks I get. I share my wisdom with the community and what do I get?

Joking aside, it is really odd that it didn't work. My homebrew (i forget the recipe because I haven't made it in so long) was by far the cleanest lube I have ever used. The cheapo lube I use now was bought for me from a supermarket and is awful. Immediately after a ride, the chain is completely black. I have even lubed and left to dry for 2 weeks and the first ride still produced black chain.

I think the "mineral spirits" in England are different from the USA.

I used the stuff I wash paint brushes with. I want to do it here but I think keeping half used bottles of mineral spirits in apartments is dumb.

How can you tell the difference between when the government is shut down or when it is "working"?

Eh, the OP had more than just a mere waft of shillery emanating from him.

On fb yesterday I posted that I was having a crappy day at the office. Today I had a suggested post for pepto-bismol. :D

No.

Should I drip candle wax into my homebrew?

I recall the lube I was using before claimed to have wax in it.

If their win streak didn't bring him back to gloat, whatever is keeping him away must be serious. I'm guessing that he's realized there are better ways to spend his time.

That Blackhawks 'streak' is bogus. The old and better rules would have stopped this streak before it was significant.

Before a team got a point for losing.

That was one of the worst rule changes of ALL TIME!

Shootout = good. Point for just getting to OT = bad.

I'm sure there is a grain of good intent with some logic in there, but I don't know of any other sports aside from NASCAR where a point is awarded for not winning.

Make no mistake, this is not a 'winning' streak.
