Is OT's hot sauce mild enough?

 

I would say (a complete guess) it's about as hot as most regular sauces like Louisiana, Crystal and Sriracha and not quite as hot as tabasco.

 

Which is pretty mild compared to some of the crazy sauces out there, I like flavor not just burn.

 

It's good sauce, Oldtimer did well, wish I had a gallon. :D  

 

Thinking just about right then, as I can take it warm. Must be good stuff. Any preferred yet of the 3?

 

It's not as mild as Cholula but it's not as hot as my normal brew.

 

Thanks OT!

 

You guy's seem to like hot stuff, next time i see this bottle, ill pick up a few for the gang :emotion-21:

That is a nice pic there dtel. Got a new camera recently but need some practice.

 

Thanks, is it a DSLR or a smaller camera ?  Practice never ends and no matter how hard you try really good pic's just seem to happen when you least expect it. 

 

It is a Sony Cybershot with no viewfinder complete kit w/card from Amazon for $100 just the screen on rear. Was going to get a refurb DSLR from Amazon 4 months ago for same $. Really think so dtel, practice. Need something pretty to shoot though ;)

That is exactly what i have, and the reason i dont take many Pics on the road, too much crap to carry and handle/worry about a big old camera.

office depot $120 about six years ago, close out, could not pass that up. SD card equiped.

It is decent enough for our purposes so far Mark. Yes Too hell with all of that lugging around paraphernalia when I can put whole camera w/case in my pocket,lol! Will try to take a pic or 2 going down the road when I work weekends, just to see.

Yes I am! Used! Cheap! Getting tired of 1 car when we are a 2 car family.

 

For some reason I thought you were in TX.  We're going to sell my wife's car at the end of the month.

 

Just talk like from Texas. Got a good looking sr. sister in Conroe for many years.

What is your wife's car?

At this point I couldn't pick one as a favorite, not a big difference to make one stand out, sorry.

I really like my DSLR even though it's getting little old, still works fine. But I have to say it is really nice to have a pocket size camera sometimes. We bought a pocket size waterproof camera it's a Olympus tough camera, it's fine to 33'deep which is way more than I go snorkeling. 

 

It's nice to just stick it in your pocket and go, it takes good pics but extremely handy especially where I might be going in the water and couldn't leave the other camera on land by itself.

I didn't really say anything about the last trip. The little Olympus tough cameras are good, had it now for a couple/few years? we got a good price on it when stores were selling them off because new models are coming out. It is the Tg 820 model  http://www.getolympus.com/us/en/tg-820-ihs.html

 

It looks like the new model may be better ?

 

I like it because it's fine to 33' underwater and is tough it can be dropped from 6.6' never tried that :o yet, but did throw it to someone out in the water about 50' away (it has a float strap), crush proof to 220 lbs, and takes HD videos.

 

It's still working....so far. 

 

Nice scenery in Roatan Honduras .........and some monkeys ..........no not my wife

I am wondering if that piece has some hard calcified deposits in it.

 

Very possible.  Pulling it would be your best option (unfortunately).  If that's the case you need to decide if you want to do just this repair or a major overhaul.

 

 

Yes, I think that may be the case.  It will have to wait.  Talked to a local Plumbing Supply and he concurs.  Asked if there was any "last resort" chemical to try to break it up.  He didn't endorse it, but Muriatic Acid.  We have some, but it scares me.  O.K...thanks everyone for the insights and putting up with my boring topic/project.  I will try not to pollute the thread with it any more, unless I have a victory, then I will let you know.   :mellow:

Just pour a little coffee in the pipes and we'll let you talk about it some more.

 

 

Have you tried CLR?  Seems it would be made for something like this.

 

EDIT!!!  it may contact the rubber washers, check the label and see if it's safe for this or you may end up re-building the valves when you're done.  Read all warnings and precautions before using.

Used car dealer in Pensacola talked me into coming over and looking at car in person, on a Saturday, a bit after the financial crisis. I knew I could make a deal if I wanted and had plenty of cash so. He asked how much I wanted to pay for the car and I said: Well, I said: I do not want to pay anything for it but, have a little money with me anyway. Made head man an offer and back to near Tallahassee, I went.

One last idea...........find some Viagra, break it up and dissolve it with water to make a paste, coat the fittings and valves, when they expand turn on the water and flush it out the clog. You can leave the coating on to have more water flow for later. :o  :lol:
