The avil search continues
I'm still looking for an anvil to start doing some blacksmithing.......the propane forges (yes two at this point) are slowly progressing and I'm sure having an anvil ready to begin working on would light a fire under me to finish the forges sooner. Good old anvils are hard to find. I'm located in NC and they aren't nearly as common as they seem to be in the OH, PA, and NorthEast regions.
Antique stores think they are made of gold.........auctions take too much time and the price can get ridiculous........so far eBay has the best selection and prices are fair, but shipping will kill you once you get over the 100lb range. I'm spreading the word with every one I know, and I'm starting to hear about anvils, but it's typically my sister's husband's dad's friend's type of thing.
I'll keep up the search for another month or so, but then I may have to bite the bullet and get one off of eBay and either pay for shipping or take a weekend trip to pick it up.
Someone posted on one of the boards recently that one of the stores, Harbour Freight, or one of those had a good price on one weighing around 125 pounds, if I remember right. Might check those out, if you haven't already. Do you need something bigger than that ?
I am making do with a big piece of I beam which I can fasten down to a heavy metal roll around workbench if I need it more stationary. I have hammered it pretty heavy with a sledge hammer to straighten some quarter inch strap and it worked like a champ. It is handy to use to clamp things on to weld, and I set it up to bend some 5/8ths rod for pins. I have another piece that I have drilled some holes in so that I can fasten it down to something whenever I find what ever I want to fasten it to. Been thinking about burying one end of one of those big logs in the ground, like a stump, and fastening it to that. But I will have to make do with what I have for the time being.
Be sure and let us know how those forges work out.

Why dont ya go to the local rail yard, I got one about as big as the I beam shown and works great, only drawback is it takes my gas powered chop saw forever to make the point and the hammering width is a little on the narrow side. I'm not sure what it actually was used for but it is bigger than the ones you see normal trains run on I'm told it sings pretty when I hammer, I cant verify that as I am deaf.
That is just a small picture of the I beam. \":^)
Actually, it is 6" X 6" and a half inch thick and almost 5' long. That makes it pretty heavy, but probably not quite a hundred pounds, but like I say, I can bolt it down to the work bench or just clamp it on with C clamps. Railroad rails are undoubtedly strong, but like you said, a narrower flat surface. David is innovative, and that is a good thing, perhaps he could weld a piece of rail on a big chunk of I beam, they do make them bigger than that.
Speaking of innovations, see that piece of angle iron welded on the side of my work bench ? That is as perfect as I need to align a piece of square tube, rod, pipe etc if I want to weld two pieces together, end to end. Just clamp them in that. It also comes in real handy at times to hold a piece at an angle to be welded, and has a slot cut in it about half way if I want to cut thru something small with a torch, just aline it with the slot. It also has some holes drilled in it to hold something for bending.
No big deal, did not cost much at all, just a handy little accessory, or "accouterment" on my home made, roll around metal workbench that I made out of scrap for welding, cutting and many other uses.
David, that was Harbor Freight, I ran a cross the posting again which is now at the top on the Tool Shed forum. However, it mentioned one that was 110 pounds. An inquiry might tell you if they have, or can get, heavier ones.
Bill P.
A chunk of rail is good for beating on things... But....
If you ever used a real Anvil there is no comparison ...
Also the bigger the better... When you heat steel and beat it into shape you want alot of weight behind the hammer... What a difference it makes... My main anvil weights 345lbs with a 210 lbs anvil stand... I love it... I was in the right place at the right time ... I got it for $100.00 and its an English anvil...
Check out this old anvil... I have two like this one...
kbeitz, that looks like a multi-functional, very useful type of anvil........but I'm not sure I'd want to take to it with the 3# cross pein and a large chunk of hot steel!
Right now we've got a chunk of 6" diamter steel bolted to a stump and it works as well as can be expected. It's too soft to provide much, if any, rebound therefore it takes more effort to shape material. Plus it doesn't have a horn or upsetting table.
I figure eventuall I'll be in the right place at the right time too.........but if that doesn't happen soon we'll go ahead and get a 100-150 pounder off of eBay and I'll continue the search for the big one locally here in NC.
First let me explain I am posting from my wifes account, my name is Rob. Here is a link, check out Item 1500.
I also have an old anvil cast iron not steel (pretty sure), about 125 pounds, I am in Baltimore, Md. It's a little rough, can't make any statement as far as quality I want 250.00 if your interested.

Thanks for the links and the heads up on the for sale items at KeenJunk. I did send an e-mail about that Peter Wright (#1500); we'll see if it's still around. I appreciate the offer on the cast iron anvil you've got, but I'm looking for an older Peter Wright, Hay Budden, Trenton, etc. with a wrought steel body and hardened steel face. I plan on using it quite a bit and keeping it for a long time so I would like to get the best I can.
Thanks again, David
go to www.abana.org and find the nearest chapter of the Artist blacksmiths of North America. there is certainly a North Carolina chapter. Go to a meeting or join and get the newsletter- those guys know where every bit of old iron in the state is!

hey worcherwicz...I was browsing thru the 2004 Grizzly catalogue...drooling...and ran across anvils...they have a 100#-er for $110, a 200#-er for $195, and a 300#-er for $295. I don't know if that's in your budget, but it's a nice paint job...and of course a bunch of bite-size models as well.
net site is http://www.grizzly.com/index.cfm
at least get their catalogue. I ran up to the NE Pa. store (Williamsport/Muncy) 2 years ago to neb around and pick up a mini-mill (Seig) and was flabbergasted at the machines on the floor...from hobby line up thru mega-mondo-industrial stuff...clean showroom and nice folks...although some locals were giving me visual insubordination in a Mom & Pop pizza shop.
It's probably a blessing I don't live closer...I drooled all over my shirt as it was on one visit...and mz. modre gets high blood pressure when I go shopping by myself...
I'm getting low on cutting oil...I may have to run up there again...they DO have some nice stuff on that floor.
modre........I appreciate the heads up on the grizz anvils but they won't suffice. Like a lot of other newly made, cheaper anvils they are made of cast iron -- bad for smithin', so I understand. They offer no rebound, so all of your engergy is absorbed into the anvil, instead of into the work piece or as rebound for the hammer......also, they'll chip and/or crack. The only good new anvils are made from cast steel (Nimba, Peddinghaus, Kohlswa come to mind) but they can fetch $4 or $5 per pound.....ouch!
I'm looking for an older Peter Wright, Trenton, or Hay Budden..........they quit making these in the early 1900's. They are made of a solid wrought steel body with a hardened steel face plate that is forge welded to the body. Pretty much the best you can get from what I read. Problem is finding them. Well, finding one that is affordable ($2-$3/lb), nearby (no shipping$), right size (bigger IS better), and not beat to look like an elderly horse. I keep looking and sooner or later the right one will come along.
Sorry for the history lesson, but I didn't want to simply dismiss your suggestion without reason. BTW, any FEL progress?
Like modre says 9 bucks a lb to slam a hammer on better use it in a hillbilly band to pay for it first then use it to pound metal and yes yikes nice lathe, was running one and didnt have my coveralls on my shirt tail wouldnt stay tucked in got it wound in the screw that runs in front slammed me into it I ducked and lost the shirt... and hurt my pride to beat heck other than that no pain .I'd weld a fat piece of metal to an I beam and use that before I pay 9 bucks a lb, but then if I use the real thing I may say why the heck I waited so long to get one the only commercial made anvil I got weigh 2 lbs and fits in my hand no prob so I am not an expert
Try Harbor Freight for a cast STEEL anvil better than cast iron. I do not know how good they are. I use a Trenton 225 Lb. I paid $5 and they did not want any more money for it even though I offered. It was in very good condition too. My lucky day.
Here is a link that might be useful: 55# steel anvil
blacksmithman: I hope you left off a couple of zeroes..........if not, then color me green with envy!
kbeitz: that's one heck of a table. It's probably not going to move much when you are working on it! How much does it weigh? I'm guessing 1100 pounds.
Well I'm still looking for an anvil.......I had located a 200# Trenton in Ohio at a good price, but it had two large bolts run through the anvil from the bottom up into the top of the anvil, which I thought was suspicious. Then I found online that the Trentons were forged welded together from two pieces: a top and bottom, joined at the waist. So I suspect the forge weld had started to separate and somebody put the bolts in to hold it together. Anyhow I passed the deal up and am still looking..................
Hi David: don't give up the ship. It took me about 5 years till I found a good Mouse Hole anvil old ,but good. Some where around 250 to 300 lbs. set on a 24 inch dia. oak base (log ). When you find the right anvil which you will remember that the correct height of the anvil is so that you can stand upright and lay the knuckles of a closed fist flat on the top face of the anvil.
Good Luck Bill
kbeitz: that's one heck of a table. It's probably not going to move much when you are working on it! How much does it weigh? I'm guessing 1100 pounds.
?????? Weight .... No idea... My homemade forklift truck wont lift it, but I did lift a 250gal fuel tank full and moved it... So its gotta be heavy heavy...
Thanks for the words of advice everyone. I'll keep looking; I've spread the word to everyone I know and I've gotten in touch with the local farm auction place. They say they get anvils from time to time, but none in the past three months.
Since I'm still working on the forges, I'm not to distraught about the lack of anvil.......yet. I'm close to finishing the small forge, I just lack fine tuning the burner, casting the refractory cement, and painting. I'll try to post some pics of the progress to date tomorrow evening under a "Propane Forge Construction" post.
Rich, that H.F. 55 pound anvil would probably serve many folks needs, those who are not at the advanced level where it makes that much difference. I picked up a couple of pieces of big heavy I beam at the scrap yard, drilled some holes so I could bolt them down on a solid workbench or where ever needed, some other holes so I could heat and bend 5/8 and smaller rod, and have used it to beat the dickens out of some pretty heavy strap with a sledge hammer to straighten it out. It has been well worth the price of 10 cents per pound, I would say a good investment for me, and something more in my price range than that 5 or 9 bucks per pound for the "good" anvils. I am not critiqueing or putting them down, am sure that they are the ultimate, but just out of my league pricewise and needwise. This one is 1/2 inch thick, about 4.5 feet long and pretty danged heavy. I can slide it around on this metal work bench to get the optimum position, clamp it down with C clamps of vice grips and have heated and bent metal up to 1/2 X 2". All I am saying is that such as this might be a workable solution for those not needing the upper end anvils.
Bill P.
Well, that 55 lb steel anvil has apparently been discontinued by Harbor Freight. Or so the web site says.
I was in Harbor Freight over the weekend and picked up a 55 lb anvil for $30. The end label on the box says it's steel. The product label on the side of the box says it's "top quality cast iron". It's probably more than enough for my immediate and medium term needs.
It's got a very nice paint job, but the bottom isn't quite flat. So I'll probably be taking a hand-held grinding wheel in a power drill to it to bring it flatter.
Or I might just bring it into the shop at school to see what a good shell mill can do... :-)
Well, I brought the el cheapo HF 55 lb anvil into the shop and machined the bottom flat. While I was at it, I learned how to trammel the head on the Bridgeport and then machined the top very smooth and flat as well.
Here's the finished "product". I think I turned a $30 anvil into a $300 anvil :-)...
I bought one of my anvils at a scrap metal place here where I live. I think its 150# and it was $35.00. It did have a small chunk chipped off one end (bout the size of a penny) but that hasn't caused me a bit of trouble, I use it all the time. I've also bought them at some of the junky-er antique shops for a pretty good deal. Some of the older ones are great if you can find them with a relitivly smooth surface for a fair price.
That makes sense. However it would be a bit more difficult to machine such a heavy object slightly convex in the Y direction but perfectly flat in the X direction. Would require some sort of rotary table or fixture.
Or it could be done more crudely by hand with a big file.
I'm probably going to leave mine as is. There are some things I do with small pieces that will benefit from having a perfectly flat surface.

Not pouring, also not clogged...
I have a Keurig that I was given for free, if I can fix it. It's serial number start with a 76 but looks just like a K75.
It pulls water in from the water storage, heats it up but does not pour it through to dispense it. I have checked the top pin that punctures the cup and it is not clogged. I have used a turkey baster and been able to suction out hot water through that top pin so I know that tube is not clogged.
So based on that I'm thinking that it's some motor after the boiler that is not working. It's not making any unusual noises.
I'm comfortable replacing a part, as long as I know what part needs replacing. Don't want to spend $50 if it only takes a $15 part. :)
Any ideas? Thanks!
Accepted Answer
Hi Rich, been looking around and it appears like the keurig only has one pump. but it does have plenty of tubes that could be kinked or blocked. I would open her up and do a good visual inspection, and test any possible leads.
I have also looked around the web and notice not many promising solutions, I would assume you have tried cleaning with vinegar. And actually if the previous owner was running hard water through it then that quite possibly mineral buildup could be the issue.
Good luck!
Thanks for the help. I'll open her up and take a look. Since there is only one pump and it is pulling water in then it should be able to pump it out. Weird. I'm pretty sure the previous owner was using tap water. :/
Lift the handle to tilt the top back as you would to normally load the K-cup.
Remove the two screw underneath the cover and pop the tilting top off (two screws underneath release the top cover)
There is an in-line backflow valve just underneath this cover. You should see that it is clogged with residual coffee grounds. Remove it by removing the tie wraps and then pull off the hoses from both ends. Watch for the correct orientation when you remove it. You don't want to put back in backwards!
Run water back and forth through this valve and clean out the old coffee.
Re-install the valve (correct orientation) and to be completely sure of no leaks you may want to re-install some small tie-wraps on the hoses. I have not done this and mine hasn't leaked yet.
Enjoy coffee!

Top dwellers
Top dwellers:
Can anyone recommend some Top dwellers for my community tank?
The tank is full of placid fish such as neonÂs, glow light tetras, bristle nose and corryÂs.
Also the tetras a so placid they just seem to sit around doing nothing until feeding time. Should I introduce another school of (mid section) more active fish to give them more incentive to move?
White cloud mountain minnows love the top. =^_^= They're peacful, and the males have lovely colors when kept well. You need a longer tank rather than a taller one so they can dart about like they like to, and there's a certain male/female ratio you should keep, though I'm not sure what that is.
Hatchets are wonderful fish :) If you have sufficient room and filtration, get a small school of them because they don't do well alone. They will feel much more secure with floating plants too. As others have said, they are prone to jumping and every crack and crevice must be covered. Duct tape if you have to!

1) In a saucepan, add sugar and 2 tablespoon of water. Bring this to a boil to dissolve the sugar.
2) Add raspberries and again allow this to boil.
3) Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the raspberry breaks down to make a thick and jam-like sauce.
4) Store inside refrigerator for later use.
5) Serve this as a garnish on the rice pudding.

Members of Congress are always getting accused of trashy behavior. One senator recently took the concept to another level.
When Congress was called to session at the beginning of the year, Sen. Norman Coleman, R-Minn., reported for duty with a mean-looking owie on his forehead. When pressed for the injury's cause, the embarrassed statesman, at first reluctant to share the reason, eventually offered this story:
The Coleman mansion back in St. Paul is undergoing serious remodeling and reconstruction. While tidying up the place, Coleman's model/actress wife Laurie accidentally tossed out a valuable antique lamp. In an effort to recover the pricey item, the Senator jumped into the Dumpster—and got a nasty nick in the knick knack recovery effort.
The Dumpster incident isn't the first time a Coleman has been caught wallowing in garbage. Last year, the senator's 81-year-old father was charged with lewd conduct when he and a 38-year-old woman were caught getting friendly in the parking lot of a St. Paul pizza parlor.

I love dance, music and guitars. I'm a nature lover. I like photography, nature being the most likely subject. I'm fond of the ocean. Reading is one of my most favorite things to do. My favorite books include The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini, and Have A Little Faith by Mitch Albom. I have this habit of going to bookstores and buying tons of books on sale. I have about 20+ books waiting to be read. I love watching foreign films. Among my favorites: 3 Idiots (an Indian movie, really really good, watch it!), Mah Nakorn (Thai), A Moment to Remember (Korean), Heavenly Forest (Japanese), Let The Right One In (Swedish), Amelie (French), Old Boy (Korean), etc. From Hollywood, my most favorite film would have to be a tie between Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Blue Valentine. Ryan Gosling is an amazing actor, in my opinion. I'm a big fan of Death Cab for Cutie, Coldplay, Paramore, The Script, Snow Patrol, Maroon 5 and Coheed and Cambria. What Sarah Said is the song currently stuck in my head. I say no to dictatorship, violence, discrimination, and racism. If there's a thing I like most about myself, it is my ability to see the beauty and to find joy in simple things. I love traveling, meeting people, and trying different things (I ate crickets in Thailand :D). My family is very important to me. They are my life. I adore my friends. They keep me sane (well, most of the time). I love my country, the Philippines. I have a deep sense of patriotism. We are a beautiful people, and the Philippines is a paradise on earth.

Newbie needing advice
My daughter (age 9) has decided she wants to try selling the black berries growing in field. We usually produce several gallons of the these wild berries. Is there a market for them and if so, how do I help her get started and how do I determine a price?
Don't be surprized if you find out that, in order for your daughter to sell fruits and/or veggies at the farmers market, she will have to first pay several hundred dollars in licences and fees and get a background check from the local police, FBI and CIA. That's what I found out when I inquired about selling a few extra veggies from my garden at the Farmers Market in my city. Too bad that it's come to that.
I'm always impressed when I hear about children who want to work to earn some money. GOOD FOR HERE! My daughter's been working since she was 9 too. You might not be able to just show up at market and sell. Many markets require membership. The membership fee helps pay for advertising, insurance, utilities and other expenses. Some markets will let you rent a table for a set amount per week without becoming a market. I don't think smaller markets ask for background checks. It's a shame it's like that in snappybob's city. =(
I have standing orders for blackberries as soon as they're ripe. I'll charge $3 for a pint and $6 for a quart. The raspberries weren't very good this year but the blackberries look like they'll be incredible.
Good luck!

eVSM v7 - Electronic Value-Stream Mapping
March 10, 2014
Accessories; Software; Value-Stream Maps
Walking the shop or office floor with a paper and pencil to collect data and observe actual conditions is how value-stream mapping (VSM) is done. But for a long time, members of the Lean Community have been sharing these hand-drawn maps by creating their own electronic templates from scratch in various software programs. eVSM makes the process of turning hand-drawn maps into electronic ones easier and faster. As a companion – not a substitute – to paper-and-pencil mapping, the software allows lean practitioners to easily create, modify, and disseminate electronic value-stream maps. More »

October 28, 2010
"Begin from need" is attributed Taiichi Ohno, a key developer of the Toyota Production System. It means, as shown on these charts, what does the customer (the organization, the worker, the gemba) need right now? It's another way of articulating the principle of PDCA, plan-do-check-act. It helps us begin problem solving by grasping the situation, and avoid jumping to conclusions. More »

Problem Definition Worksheet
By: Lean Transformations Group | June 17, 2013
In order to continuously improve, you must be able to find problems in order to solve them. Once you have found a problem, the first step you must take is to make sure you have properly defined the problem. One way to look at problems (i. e. , gaps) is to think in terms of standards. A gap can exist between current performance and an established standard or a new standard that you are attempting to achieve. A problem also can be unwanted variation in performance even when average performance appears acceptable. When even a single out-of-specification event is a More »
Root Cause Template
By: Shook, John and David Verble | June 13, 2013
When trying to solve a problem, you want to identify underlying causes, which will help you to prevent fires rather than just extinguish them. By identifying the underlying causes down to the root causes, you can reduce the likelihood that a given problem will recur. The most common root-cause analysis technique in lean is the "Five Why's. " This is practice of asking why repeatedly whenever a problem is encountered in order to get beyond the obvious symptoms to discover the root cause. For instance, Taiichi Ohno gives this example about a machine that stopped working (Ohno 1988, p. 17):Why did More »

Value-Stream Map Zones (from Perfecting Patient Journeys)
By: Lean Transformations Group | January 29, 2013
Developing a current-state map creates a common understanding of how things really work today in the value stream (not necessarily what the documentation says or some might believe) so that the stakeholders can work together to identify and address problems and make improvements. Remember, see together, learn together, act together. All value-stream maps are laid out in a horizontal format. They capture major categories or zones of fact finding. We find it helpful to think about value-stream maps in terms of the following six zones: customer, supplier, processes, information flow, process data, and a timeline and summary.

Florida Gators: Andrew Johnson
Instant analysis: Louisville 33, Florida 23
January, 3, 2013
By Michael DiRocco | ESPN.com
Reaction to Louisville's 33-23 win over Florida in the Allstate Sugar Bowl:
It was over when: Louisville cornerback Andrew Johnson intercepted a tipped pass in the end zone and returned it 22 yards early in the fourth quarter. Florida was close to scoring a touchdown and cutting Louisville's lead to 30-17, but Jeff Driskel threw a bit behind receiver Quinton Dunbar and the ball bounced off Dunbar's hands. The Cardinals converted that turnover into a 33-yard field goal and a 33-10 lead. That lead turned out to be insurmountable.
Game ball goes to: Louisville QB Teddy Bridgewater shredded Florida's defense, which was ranked No. 1 in the nation in pass efficiency. The sophomore from Miami, Fla., completed 20 of 32 passes for 266 yards and two touchdowns. Bridgewater was rarely pressured and pretty much had his pick of open receivers all night.
Stat of the game: Louisville was fantastic on third down and Florida wasn't. The Cardinals went 9-for-14. Florida went 3-for-10 and the Gators didn't get their first third-down conversion until the fourth quarter. Florida had entered the game fourth nationally in third-down defense (28 percent).
Unsung hero: Kick returner Andre Debose gave the Gators a glimmer of hope in the fourth quarter when he took a kickoff 100 yards for a touchdown to cut Louisville's lead to 33-17.
Best call: It turned out to be meaningless in the final outcome, but the Gators scored their lone touchdown on a fake field goal late in the first half. Florida split several linemen out wide left but had fullback Trey Burton, running back Matt Jones and kicker Caleb Sturgis lined up behind the center. Burton took the snap and gave the ball to Jones on an option play and he scored from 1 yard out.
Second guessing: Florida coach Will Muschamp called for an onside kick to begin the second half trailing 24-10. It turned out to be disastrous. Not only did Louisville recover the ball, there was a skirmish after the play. Special teams standout Chris Johnson was ejected for throwing a punch, Loucheiz Purifoy was also penalized for a personal foul, and the Cardinals took possession at the UF 19-yard line. They scored a touchdown on the following play for a 30-10 lead.
What Louisville learned: The Cardinals program is in good hands with coach Charlie Strong and appears ready for its move to the ACC in 2014. Louisville is loaded with young talent -- 26 of the players on the two-deep depth charts on offense and defense are freshmen or sophomores -- and most importantly has a Heisman Trophy candidate at quarterback in Bridgewater. The Cardinals gained a huge measure of momentum for next season with Wednesday night's rout and will almost certainly be a preseason top 10 selection.
What Florida learned: The Gators didn't learn anything new about their offense. The offensive line needs work, Driskel needs to improve, and there is a dearth of playmakers at receiver. However, it appears the Gators may not be as set on defense as they may have thought. Especially in the secondary, which was supposed to have been the team's strength. The Gators were unable to slow down Louisville's passing attack and the loss of Purifoy to an injury in the first half showed that the Gators don't have much depth at corner.

again, very well spoken.
i have no fear of being the minority voice or the majority voice. i will speak my mind on what i believe is wrong or right regardless. this is not why i left this thread.
no matter how polar opposite someone's opinion might be from mine, or how mad it might make me....if it is spoken with at least the most basic respect, i can always agree to disagree. everyone has their right to their opinion here.
when personal attacks start, i tend to leave. only because it is very difficult for me to not respond with this pathetic debate tactic in return. i'd rather just leave it in that instance. i am interested in adult debate...i have no interest however, in childish drama.
thanks for the respectful reply. check through my threads and you'll find i love to laugh as much as the next guy. just not normally over REAL death or tragedy....that is kind of my line i have drawn for myself.
Well stated Dave. The point here which is common to both cases is the media reporting and their influencing of the facts. In the Martin and Zimmerman incident the press was guilty of with holding facts to guide public opinion. We have a "Rush" to judgement in this shooting relevant to the media reports. These reports to this point are primarily speculation by reporters. Separating sympathy either real or applied is always weighted for or against one of the litigants. In the Martin vs Zimmerman case it unfairly clouded the pre-trial information.
Clearly, the best choice is to respond to threats with the best likelihood of survival without putting yourself in danger of spending the rest of your life either damned or in prison or both. If the guy with lousy taste in music and no manners pointed a gun at him, responding by killing him was the perfect response, if no gun was pointed, he's just a murderer with better taste in music than the person he killed.
The only reason to leave the scene of a crime is to either escape escalation or avoid prosecution. He didnt go to the police station so that only leaves the likelihood he was wrong as 2 boys doinking! Legal ownership of a firearm wont bond me to anyone anymore than having tits will cause me to want to screw you. What we do with our legal rights is the final determining factor of right and wrong.
The jury is still out on this one but the story so far is one Al said "two idiots met in the night, both lost.".

Android's Move to SD feature is incompatible with some of the features of WootWatcher, so I can't enable it. If you're using a custom ROM that can force an app to be stored on SD, don't move WootWatcher to SD or you will have reliability problems.
If you have any problems at all, let me know! Emails go straight to my phone.
If you are getting the woot items but no images, check to make sure your SD card and phone storage are not full. This is the main cause of missing images, since WootWatcher doesn't have any place to put them.
I have recently joined Woot's "Minions" program, which is an affiliate program that helps fund WootWatcher development. Here's how it works: If you click a button in WootWatcher that opens the browser and takes you to the Woot.com site, it first goes to one of cj.com's tracking servers. That server places a cookie in your browser. If you end up purchasing something from Woot.com using your mobile device, that cookie is used to give me credit for sending you there.

For starters, Andrew Jackson removed about 46,000 Native Americans from their established homelands to make way for White settlement leaving a "Trail of Tears" of starvation, disease, and death. That's just the beginning of a long line of horrors: he annexed Florida, executed militia members after the War of 1812, and dismantled the central bank to push wildcat banks.

Synopsis: From USA Today Bestselling Author J.C. Valentine comes a sizzling story about a young entrepreneur, a hot firefighter, and a first date that will change their paths forever.
Tenacious bakery shop owner Abby is following her dreams. She has everything she could ever want in life—except the fairytale ending. Then she meets Kennedy, a hunky firefighter whose killer smile and easy charm makes her heart pound. But with the kind of danger he faces on the job each day, Abby knows there's no happily-ever-after in the cards. The harder she tries to hold onto her heart, the faster it seems to slip away, but when a series of mysterious events threaten the future of her business and her life, their happiness may be shorter-lived than she realized.
Someone is out to get her, and it's up to Abby and Kennedy to uncover who's behind the destruction. Can they do it before tragedy strikes?
