Nasty day outside. Had to take wife to get one of her fearing aids repaired. Everything is covered with ice.

Had to take my wife to a doctor's appointment, but if was a beautiful sunny day, but 37 degrees with a north breeze at the time.

RIP, praying things are going well.

Prayers for you guys, Ed

303 is fine on leather, but the absolute best thing to keep leather soft and natural looking for years is Nivea unscented lotion, if it is good for your skin, it is good for leather. As I said, I started using 303 on boats in the mid 1980s because it has far superior UV blocking vs Armor All or almost any other protectant. If your leather is cracked a good fix is pre softened shoe paste, available in almost any color. Rub it in thoroughly let it dry, rub it out with white terry until no color shows, after a month start the Nivea.

#2 will work great on that. Get you a terrry cloth pad you can run in your cordless drill. Smear a bit over maybe a square foot and go to town with the buffing pad. Stand back, drinking a Shiner Bock and be amazed at your handiwork. You don't even need #1, it has zero grit or fines and only cleans.

Thanks Kyle, I’ll give it a try. Does it work with Jack Daniel’s?

I thought I was just mentally ill

I am not one to judge.

Inpatients used to tell me that if they used to act as I, they would have their medications increased. I agreed with them. Their problem was getting caught. I have not (yet).

People who think that they are "crazy" usually are not. Professionally, I was always worried about the self-proclaimed "perfectly sane" individuals with whom I had to deal, and some "psychiatrists."

If anyone here ever wants a nice break from the demands of daily living, 3 "hots" and a cot, a "soothing" pastel (puke) colored environment, and free entertainment with episodic daily floorshows from those "free spirits" who suddenly feel "liberated," I have the secret "mantra" to give you all the "vacation time" necessary. All one needs to do is to confide "certain statements" with the admitting "professionals." Later, if one is "well behaved" they can get "grounds privileges."

I survived the "kultural" experience. "Darkest Hour" is a decent movie. 45F and raining here

I know three psychologists and 2 psychiatrists I like 3 of the 5, but they are all certifiably crazy!
Some were customers, some I met through wife’s acquaintances.

Toppop52- Now you know 3.5. I am retired. I always thought that one had to be crazy to get into the field. After +30 years in the field, I still believe that one needs to be "crazy" as a requirement for hire in the human social "services."

Nice ... looks like a very well maintained tank ... :thumbsup:

Looks like you have some java moss growing in there (left side) ... are the rest of the plants live ... or a mix of live and artificial ?

all live plants seem to need trimming about once a week, the big guy hides in the back of the plants in the center
and comes out at night.

Rick just a suggestion for your plastic, I have used "Wipe New" as seen on TV on the plastic on my Chevy Avalanche it works very good and lasts yes even with driving through the car wash, sitting in the sun and covered with snow and ice. It has lasted about 2 years applying twice in the last 4 years.

Thanks. I need to first remove very fine scratches. They’re so fine that the finish is just “dull” from almost 10 years of use.

I think the product your recommending might work well once I’ve got it shined up.
