Stop in for a cup of coffee

Yes.
And I've finally figured out how to grind the beans properly for both the pour over cone and the drip pot.
The Huehue is definately richer than the Antigua. I think it has more flavor too. The Antiqua has sharpness but I liked what you made better. It had more aroma and flavor. Could be the way I make it, or maybe the amount of roasting?

so you got both?
That was Antigua at my place. He said both of my samples were med dark roast. Looking at them,the hue-hue was slightly darker. I ordered both. I usually blend a bold coffee 50/50 with decaf(usually columbian). I combined the remaining of both samples and decaf 25/25/50 and it was really good.

I know there is a wide disparity of opinion on here with regard to Law Enforcement Professionals but our family is intertwined with them as several are LEOs including our boy. Long story short he works for a PD in NW Ark. last night one of his Brothers was killed execution style right outside the Dept door. The officer was ambushed. When word was coming in at first we did not know if our boy was down or a survivor. Turns out he is fine but will probably pray extra today at his church. This story will likely never make a National news but rest assured it is heart wrenching for many. These guys roll the dice every single day doing the absolute best job they can. My apologies for ranting but I am just now getting myself sorted back out after a small moment of oh no, they just found out they are having a second child and all the other thoughts that race thru your head when you do not know status of your own.

Sad, @ZMan67S and his wonderful wife, are both retired LEO's And I can relate as well. It gets really scary out there....
 
'15 minute job' #1 complete and the day is only half over! LOL
Got the TIPM replaced and all good. At first I had a buttload of dash lights. :eek: but just cycling it on and off cleared most of them. Still had check engine and 1 code. Disconnected it and re-plugged everything and that cleared. :thumbsup: As far as I can tell everything is working and no warnings now. So, now we wait and see if the horn issue comes back...

I am a retired LEO, she's a former DA Prosecutor. Always sad to hear of the loss of a LEO. Really hard to understand why someone would do something like this.

Are there any options stronger than Huehue.
Both are tasty but not so strong. The one I got used to all summer is like 3 or 4 times hue hue.

Yes it made the national news. Its a tough profession. We lost five officers during my career.
Never want to think it will happen, but it does.
It is a thin Blue line...RIP.

I really struggle a lot here with all the violence. I am not even used to the police carrying guns on the street. I guess it is with Law Enforcement Officers, as it is with all other professions. The majority is good people, but then there is always one here and one there that should have had a different job.

And those few often ruin it for those who are good people. And the opinion of a profession, a skin color, a culture, or whatever it is turns to the negative. It is easy to judge all because of what a few does wrong.

I once saw a world leader judge a whole profession in his own country after an incident, before the investigation even started. I was very little impressed with that kind of acting.

I thought so. Press method definately brings out more intense and stronger flavor.

Not my area of knowledge. Just learning enough to figure out what I like.
Generally I find the finer its ground, the stronger the coffee. With pour over, if it goes through too quick its always thin.
I'm guessing the darker its roasted, the stronger the flavors but I don't know that. It may depend on the bean.
 
Sooooo..... just to be on the right track

If I want to bypass the car's electrical, and it has a points distributor....

Do I connect a positive wire to the wire that comes out of the distributor???

Or positive wire to the coil??

Of course the ground cable goes from the battery to the block and the big positive cable goes to the starter and to the relay on to the solenoid.

When i went to fire my fargo, battery positive to pos terminal on coil. Neg in coil goes to points.
 
Used my super ultra durable heavy duty ball joint press to remove king pin on driver’s side.
good thing i decided to tear it down,a few choices narrowed down with a couple measurements.
Checked and it came up as a good number. May have to backorder though.

I want to light up the slant in the scamp but the wiring is a mess and there are electrical parts missing on the car and at some point in history, someone tried putting electronic ignition in the car and none of it really makes sense.

I am going to replace the engine harness

Take your time, it will run with just the coil and starter wired.
Im in the same boat, the next thing i did was get ignition switch working. Then got charging system working.
I have been pirating my wiring one piece at a time from my parts trucks and adapting.

Have you measured the king pins and bushings ?

I just think this old Mercedes bus looks are classic. It would make a really cool RV conversion.

Lutefisk. Although I will never try it again... Just not my thing. LOL

Well, you are ahead of me, I lived in Norway for 51 years, and have never tried lutefisk. But lefse is yummy. I wish all Americans could try lefse and also brown cheese at least once in their life.

For those who don't know what lefse is, it is a very flat cake kind of thing.

I have actually had both and they are quite good. One of my best friends is from Finland and her husband is from Sweden. They have shared a lot of different kinds of food from that part of the World with me over the years and I always enjoy tasting what they offer.
