RE: Craigslist funny stuff - tvguy - 03-06-2017 What the hell is wrong with some people? Who in their right mind is going to drive somewhere to meet this guy to save five percent on something the buy on ebay? Hello, I am selling an electronic EBAY gift card, worth $100. Price: $95 firm I would prefer to meet in a public place to exchange. This card was bought with the intent of buying a new blender, but I found a better deal somewhere else. Thanks for looking.

Agree to meet him, punch him in the face, steal his EBAY gift card and he will have the benefit of a lesson learned.

Now, someone with a smart phone would shoot the video and you'd be in jail bunking with 300 pound Bubba who thinks you are cute. Too damn much technology and not enough air dried fire wood.

I will, Thanks. What's that mean? Gang stuff? Because I could get an HIV tattoo or something and really seal the deal.

RE: Craigslist funny stuff - tvguy - 03-16-2017 Deep cycle battery - $50 (Shady cove) © craigslist - Map data © OpenStreetMap (google map) I have a deep cycle battery, holds a charge just fine, is 4. Years old but has only been used for emergency power on r.v. once. So still has plenty of life in it. Jump started my van with it yesterday, only took a few seconds being hooked up so it's juicy. Would take 40 if you bring a doobie with you. No phone number, email only.

My mother in law tells me, to put a board under the battery.

I even believed it many years ago. I had a friend who would find a piece of wood and put it under my batteries if they were on the concrete . LOL. The logic is that concrete is a good conductor and therefore somehow drain the battery. I asked him why the batteries don't drain when they are on an even better conductor?.. the steel in your car. Of course he didn't have an answer. I read somewhere that WAY back when batteries were first made they used some thing other than plastic.. And that type of material actually did conduct some electricity therefor putting a battery on the ground did indeed drain a battery.

There was some issue with moisture from cement effecting the wood.

Neglected to say. And sitting mourned for 4 years, only used to light up the R.V.? Oh yeah, that outta be in good shape. "batteries in a wooden box".Um , let me think. OK.... NO! Car batteries used to be encased in hard rubber, a substance that was porous enough that battery acid could seep through it and create a conductive path through the damp concrete, draining the battery. The cases of today’s batteries, however, are made of sturdier stuff that far better contains their contents than those of yesteryear. As well, time has brought technological improvements to the seals around the posts and the vent systems. These days, the problem of car battery electrolyte seepage and migration has been all but eliminated. Says battery manufacturer Yuasa, “Nowadays, containers are made from a solid plastic that does not allow any current to flow through it, so the batteries do not discharge, even if they sit in a few inches of water.” http://www.snopes.com/autos/techno/battery.asp |
