    Wops. From the days when they were immigrants working on the railroad as grunt laborers....wop was the sound they made pounding in the spikes. Vs Chink...which was applied to the asians coming to america to work from the west coast on the railroad. Both are considered to be slang and not...

    All I know is that whatever you call them I got a batch of donut dough proofing the first time and soon it will be time to proof it again after I roll them out and cut them.

    We use a circle all chopped up here... P=ExI E=IxR Both together will give you 12 formulas... until you get to AC which will give you over 90 because of inductance and capacitance. Some say over 100 but a lot of them are repeats IMHO. Usually I don't have to think that hard about it. My...

    Welders usually get a 3phase 30 amp breaker. You get to vastly undersize the wire for welders because those blokes are always on break....ha!...they never really need the wire but we size the breaker as if they do. (Makes them feel better) (That's actual codes here) The smaller breakers will...

    Now here's the inside secret... When the pandemic first started they showed Vanderbilt University hospital with a completed ward built in the parking garage. And I knew it to be a fake picture to begin with. The reason I knew was that I know where all the Electrical crews in town are. The...

    Domestic power here is 120-240 because it is just a split phase of a delta wired transformer. So the two are 180 degrees apart. Commercial can be 120-208 or 277-480. They are always 60 degrees apart and usually are three phases of either wye or delta transformers. Volt/amps are watts... Volts...

    America is flush with groceries. Food is one of the cheapest things here. No one eats beans and rice except as a rare once in a while thing. (Or they happen to like it) Every meal in America is flush with meat. Vegetables are eaten only by the health conscious. The number one vegetable in...

    Jelly is the congealed juice of fruit by means of pectin... Jam is the congealed pulp and juice of fruit. Jello is gelatin added to some blend of fruit flavored syrup. But it can also sometimes be savory instead of sweet. Not very often though. Partying teenagers have something called jello...

    A question to those who believe Trump will win

    They shut down the airport before that day... also close the roads in and out. You have to arrive by the 17th or you ain't gonna get anywhere near the place. At least that's what friends who are highly political tell me how they do it.

    A question to those who believe Trump will win

    Inauguration day is the 20th of January. That's when all the false prophets said that they were going to DC... It will either be a riot or the largest crying pool ever.

    A question to those who believe Trump will win

    Almost... The really important part is that people stop supporting and heralding these false prophets that are obviously wealthy from the support they received. They are stealing from God. They are thieves and liars.

    Now I like some Chinese food...sokay with the oyster sauce and prawn sauce... Many like the General Tso's chicken and beef. Steak houses here can get super pricey...not a fan whatsoever. They never get the temp right and fail on seasonings more often than not. IOW high dollar crap food. As...

    A question to those who believe Trump will win

    "Of those born of women there are none greater than John the Baptist.," Those are Jesus' very words... John was always broke and an orphan. His foster family tossed him out. Wearing camel hair and eating bugs and wild honey is not my idea of a good time. If much rather of had beans, bread, and...

    Am I The Only One?

    Oh for sure he was a loud mouthed jerk in a lot of ways...and a bully. But he was also highly successful in doing what he felt charged with doing. He actually kept campaign promises which really upset a lot of people that thought it was only rhetoric. Surprised me when he did it too. I wasn't...
