Chicken, I just finished watching the video you made of your shredder. I noticed another video over on the side called "I'm discovering myself".....I laughed so hard my cheeks still hurt from it. I'm at work at the moment so I showed it to some of my co-workers and they got a great laugh out of it too. Thank you for that. A good laugh is a great way to start the day!

Chicken,
It looks like this one may have your name on it.

Yeah, get 'em primed and curing if they are near maturity, otherwise just roll the dice. Hey, wonder if the planters in the Caribbean are priming like crazy too? Hope nobody gets a barn blown down. I've seen a few plantations wiped out pretty bad when the big winds blow thru.

I missed the spam post. on the Menthol note, try eucalyptus oil thinned with alcohol and misted on there. much closer to the factory menths but more natural (don't forget to let the alcohol evap off or you'll get a surprise when you light up....)

For what it's worth Chicken, I'm using 700 Watts in my refrigerator to get up to 165 degrees. Your insulation must be pretty good.
