Haven't had cable for 8yrs now..
Not missed a thing, and saved $10+K
Satellite service only.
There is no other option.
Rural, township awarded a $3 million dollar fiber contract won't see it until 2023 and it will have speeds of 25 Mbps - like what is that?

We stream most of the time but I rigged up the old Rabbit ears to pick up 14 more channels. Thinking about putting an antenna on the roof. Then add another 15 or so. My bride said, “ Your just trying to pick up that playboy channel “ :laughing7:

Buddy gets 9 channels, but aren't interested in any idiot box viewing.
Computer is bad enough. 🤣
The topography around the house would mean a 80ft tower.
That's never going to happen.
The fiber is about 1/2 way from the city now. Another few years yet for the big players to come-a-knocking

Your piece might be from Griest sewing machine attachments product line.
They built sewing machines for Singer too. So your piece may be off one of them.

Here's some Singer attachments. (Box is labeled Rotary attachments.)

It does take the fun out of it somewhat.
We're watching this movie 2 minutes, then the spinning wheel of death for 10 minutes..
Excuse: Too many folks stuck at home in Quebec because of the restrictions.

Seriously Bill you have a 80% chance of catching it now that you're doubled jabbed.
Heard South Africa #'s are dipping big time.
Great news if it's a mild fast type.
Strain is getting weaker then.

Dumb question, maybe:

What would you think of someone who snuck onto one of your permissions and just started digging stuff? Just jumped onboard and started taking stuff?

Not much-period.
I caught 2 guys trespassing on private property. 100ft away from my land
Both are regular members of another forum.
The very next day the one guy's picture is in the paper for his "ethical" metal detecting getting an award from his township.
A squirty chicken $hit has more value than a person that detects without permission.
