Yeah, I was referring to the regulars, not the ones that pop in and out wondering why their saw is cutting out, never to be heard from again until something else goes wrong. That's what I do on the computer fix-it sites. You can usually tell the regulars by the number of posts they put up here. My 90 is not as far off as you might think with the "frequent fliers."
I do have a few "garage queens" sitting around but they all would run and cut wood if you don't mind lifting a heavy saw. I generally use lighter weight saws for firewood, just mess with the old heavy ones for fun but it wouldn't be rare for my neighbors to look out and see (hear)me cutting some firewood with my C5 or an old Poulan S25DA.
computer fixits..man, ya, that gets old when you encounter people will just *not* do any research before they ask, then even then go ahead and do the same wrong thing over and over again, then claim they can't use computers, can't figure it out, etc.
It becomes like a badge of honor! Well, "I don't get computers", "I am computer illiterate", etc...Fine..everyone starts out that way, just work at it. I used to help neighbors, plus give away junkers I rebuilt to their kids..I just stopped doing that. Plenty of time for them to watch "the big game" on Tv or sitcoms, go get drunk, burn fuel in toys, play video games, watch some hollyweird movie, etc, but not one calorie expended to try and actually learn anything. "just stop forwarding chain letters, don't CC people with "what a cutepuppy.exe" etc...five minutes later "WAHHHHH computer is junk, it don't work"!
It's like them saying, "well, I drive and want to drive, but these gosh darn pedals and lever things are just so complicated, I am driving illiterate, but I am going to drive anyway, just help me figure it out" "Well, here's the manual, here are any number of discussions on this or that pedal or lever, what new question do you have then"? "Well, what are all the pedals and levers for"?
#%^%$$#!
BWAHAHAHAHA!
I am still ignorant of so many things, but man, I really try to research stuff before I ask a question. I'll only ask if after really looking at everything that is there, if I still have some niggling detail that isn't clear to me. *Most* of the time I can find an answer just by searching. It isn't perfect, but I I use google correctly, including the -negative ignore words and phrases, and wildcards and so on, I can usually find what I am looking for.
There's so much stuff out there now compared to the early 90s, etc. Remember finding stuff with gopher? And wading through newsgroups?
I hope it works out great for you. It does freakin rip
