I know mine is crappy. I'm not that good of a guy anyways. Always down in the dumps, too quiet and rather weird to most. I do things that are unusually strange to most people. Like wearing two watches. One analog for the time of day and the other to keep track of the run-time of my gas powered equipment. Open up the owners manual and it says to clean/change the aire filter every 25 hrs, clean/change the spark plug ever 100 hrs, change to oil every 300 hrs. So... that's why I wear two watches. Can't afford self powered hour meters as they cost around $40 each. I have I have four gas powered string trimmers from lite duty to heavy duty. I have three gas blowers and one electric. Two walk behind mulching mowers, one JD tractor, one large 2-stage snow thrower, small gas generator, one horizontal 4-stroke engine from a worn out Toro Sno Hound single stage snow thrower. I also have one 14" chain saw too.

I work on gas powered equipment as a hobby, so I acquired allot of the equipment from family members. Hence the four string trimmers. Only one I bought new and that's the MTD. Two Weed Eaters from one uncle and the Echo from another uncle whom passed on last year. I bought two gas blowers as one recon Weed Eater quit work this spring. So I bought a Ryobi 4-stroke blower. But found out why the Weed Eater wasn't working - a stuck piston ring. Got it going this summer. Then got another older Weed Eater blower from that same uncle whom gave me two of his Weed Eater lite duty string trimmers. I have an electric blower, but your limited to how far the extension cord can go.

I'm cheap, always looking for ways to save a buck or two. I use CFL's and LED's whenever possible. When I can afford LED light bulbs that is. I drive an old rusty Chevy car I paid $250 for. I mainly got that to dive in the winter as it's front wheel drive. It don't look that great, but it runs good, drives good and has working brakes and lights. I have a cheap compact pickup truck too. The one that Ford has (or will be soon) stop production on. That cost me approximately $7,000, that I financed. Soon that will be paid off. Just a plain Jane standard cab rear wheel drive pickup. Nothing fancy, no power anything with it. Even has a standard non-automatic clutch type transmission. It's my pride & joy. When the loan is paid off that goes into the body shop for a new paint job, plus a new coat of paint on the frame too. I have no intentions of trading that in for a new one and be right where I was - making monthly payments again.

Another problem, I still live at home with the last remaining parent. But I DO NOT live here for free. I pay some of the bills. Such as the electric, gas, phone (land line), internet (dial-up), satellite TV, cellphone, auto insurance, and even at times the grocery bill. I keep this place up by maintaining it. Fix things that wear out or break, leak, etc. I even keep all the vehicles up and running. That's what I am working for, even work overtime. If it wasn't for me living at home, he wouldn't be here now. So it has been a blessing in a way.

Lack all experiences as I have yet to go out on a date with a woman. So I cannot fully say I am romantic, a good lover, etc, etc. I don't have many real life friends, though I am gaining a few lately. I have more online than in person.

Ok we won't rate ya lol kidding happy holidays

I rate you TALL.

Your profile is ok buddy, I feel like I know you already.

just my opinion, but don't you want to save some conversation for a second date??

Merry Christmas.....sounds like you are a good son.

Hey I was thinking, I might be able to save you some money on watches.


Buy a calendar!

Open up the owners manual and it says to clean/change the aire filter every 25 hrs, (thats every day right?)

clean/change the spark plug ever 100 hrs, (every four days)

change to oil every 300 hrs.(every 12 days)

Write in all the dates...

Wake up every day, look at calendar.

You could buy an extra LED bulb with the money you save on watch servicing.

Thanks, but I usually get a good 2 years service from a good brand of watch. I usually keep an eye out for ones that use lithium batteries.

I don't think the air filter needs to be cleaned every day. Depends on what the engine is used for. Most are 25 hours or every season. Spark plugs are 100 hours or every second oil change. Oil changes are from 100 to 300 hours or every season, unless the engine is run in very dusty conditions. Then it is recommended every 50 - 100 hours or once a month.

I mainly like to keep track of the total hours of each equipment I use. Then have a running score as to which one I use the most. And which ones give me more troubles as I can pass on that info to others whom may be interested in that particular brand. Let them know they may have issues too.

Ah I see, its running time...not every 25 hours but 25hrs running time...

Good job I dont have any of those or the running costs would have been sky high. And I would have got fed up with cleaning the filter every day.

And I would have wasted some of my money on calendars.
