Splinty Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 :eek: My mistake!!! Sorry!!!! .... But I do know enough that you can't make a good Merlot from pressing peaches in an orchard! But you CAN make a pretty good brandy! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDudeAbides421 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 As a old Bradley gunner, I messed with tracks some. I would imagine it being pretty easy to throw track in that ground cause you are pivot steering in more fertile loose ground. I could also see those stumps breaking the track as well, which is alot of work and not much fun, and that was only 7 years ago when I had to do it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 I knew an old jungle fighter from the Pacific who did double duty as his unit's Stuart light tank mechanic. Those days when he didn't want to go onto patrol he'd tell the CO "Time to give the Stuart a maintenance run." A slight slope, a patch of sand, a sharp turn - "Oh no! I threw a track! You guys will have to go out without me!" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Kettler Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 thejetset, You can't change a title in Edit, but you can into Go Advanced and fix it there--provided you get the correction done before the dread 30 minute timer runs out its clock. Rest of you, Ye would be cultivar killers! The grapes grown for Caesar's Falernian are here, gracing the landscape with their seasonal presence and occasionally reminding the unwary of their hardiness. Keep your armored elephants away from the vines, and your pachyderms will not be hobbled, as surely they'll be if you continue to transgress. Take, if you must, a bunch or two of grapes in your passing through, but defile not the soil with mechanical effluvia and lead, lest ye be made to drink what results.

womble Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Ye would be cultivar killers! The grapes grown for Caesar's Falernian are here... Not in Sicily, they're not. Much further north. Entirely different (as the French would term it) Terroir. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 But you CAN make a pretty good brandy! Indeed. Actually, you can ferment almost anything with sugar in it. Even dishwater, although why anyone would choose to do that is beyond me. (Having said that, I am reasonably confident that somewhere in this crazy world someone has done/will do/is doing exactly that.)

PzKfW Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 Pretty sure you're wrong there, Michael. If there's dish soap in the dishwater. Detergents/soaps kill yeast and a lot of different fermenting bacteria, especially the Gram positive types. Just messin' with Mr. Right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Emrys Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Pretty sure you're wrong there, Michael. If there's dish soap in the dishwater. I admit I am surprised you even know anything about soap. Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
