RE: Cat peeing everywhere
The animal planet channel has a series called "My cat from Hell". It deals with problem cats. I see it on Saturday aftertnoon a lot. Also I am pretty sure there is a blog / forum associated with it on the internet. Do a Google I am sure you will find it. Some of the series deals with your problem. As I remember the main answer was more litter boxes.

RE: I bought some ice cream salt yesterday, and ...............
If interested in buying an old fashion ice-cream machine, checkout Wally World.
I bought a unit from them two years ago for 50 or 60 dollars.
It has wooden tub, both electric and manual crank assemblies.
It works great. We have used the last two summers.

RE: Onan 4KY Carb Replacement
Before anything else, if you have not, try "Sea Foam" additive. You can get it at a lot of auto part dealers like Advanced Autoparts, etc. It just goes in the fuel tank. It will not hurt your main motor if in MH, etc. Mix it a little stronger than suggested on directions. It will normally clear up a problem like this.
I use it in my MH, lawn mower, boats, jetskis, etc..

RE: wall outlet>>>> HELP!!!!!
I would turn every circuit breakerr on and off first. Sometimes they do not look tripped but they are.
Like someone said the outlet probably is of the type where the wires are pushed in, not connected by a screw. The wire is first stripped about 3/8 of an inch. Then the wire is simply pushed into a hole on the back of the outlet. A spring loaded piece of metal grabs the wire as it is pushed in. Easy and quick for the installer, but prone to failure over time.
To remove the wire there is normally a small slot next to where the wire is inserted. You have to use something like a small flat blade screwdriver. You insert it into the slot, push down and while holding it pushed in you can pull the wire out. If possible replace with an outlet with screws to hold the wires.

RE: Anyone else ever make their own....
Long wire ties work very well. They are actually meant for clamping flexible ductwork I believe. They are about 1/2"wide and 2' long. You can get them at Lowes and probably Home Depot.

An Etertnabond idea & question
Has anyone done this or considered this?
They make Etertnabond in 12" wide rolls by 50 feet long.
Could you use this to just replace the complete rubber roof on your RV?
I did the calclations based on a 32'x 8.5' MH. I allowed a 1.5" overlap using strips running the length of the MH. It would take 6.5 rolls to completely cover. Based on buying 7 rolls at a cost of $180.00 dollars per roll, the total cost would be $1,260 dollars. If anything that cost might be a little high if you bought in that quantity.
The advantages I see would be: should be fairly easy DIY project, repair should be easy, lower cost, no future caulking any where, etc..
Interested in any thoughts and comments, thanks in advance.

RE: gas additive
As stated SeaFoam is outstanding and I use it a lot in my toys. However, according to my local Honda store, you should drain the tank and run it dry.

RE: Recent Pictures of Brodie and Potsie
wwwwww..... I don't know how you got such good pics, all I ever get is blurs.
If your camera has a shutter speed adjustment use a faster shutter speed. Some "point & Shoot" cameras have a "Motion" settinmg.
If none of these adjustments are available you might try an area with as much light as possible, the camera may adjust shutter speed faster to compensate for the extra light.

RE: What is your MPG?
I tow with a H2 Hummer 2006.
It gets 25 MPG.
10 in the city and 15 on the highway.
Sorry could not resist, numbers are about right not towing.
Towing 27' TT I get 10.5-11.5 MPG depending on terrain.

RE: How do you take your cat camping?
You might want to try this, it is called a "Cat in a Bag". This the website - http://www.cat-in-the-bag.com/faq.html
It is basically a pillow case shaped thing. It is made from very tightly woven cotton cloth so claws do not come through it. One end has a zipper across the whole width. The opposite end has an opening in the middle with a velcro closing mechanism. You place the cat with it's head through the opening. Then tighten with the velcro. Then slip case down over the cat and zip it closed. There is a video on the wrbsitemshowing how to do this. They are relatively inexpensive when compared to carriers.
We have a 8 month old Maine Coon, he will eventually be 20+ pounds. I was looking for something for him to travel in. So far it is great. He seems to love it. He seems to feel secure in his bag, yet can look out and see things. He stays calm. My wife usually keeps him on her lap.
One other thing look into is a harness or walking jacket to use with a leash. They are much more secure. If scared a cat can usually get out of a collar. The harness should be two loops one around neck and one around body. These two loops need to be connected by a piece on top and one on the bottom that runs between the front legs.
A companion either another cat or small dog like a MultiPoo will help.
Good luck and enjoy your trips !

RE: Ultra-Fab electric stabilizers
I have them on my TT. I had set installed on rear area. When used with hitch power jack, they work as a three point leveling system. I have not had any problems with them.

RE: Reuben Sandwich
Try one at Arby's. Not completely traditional, but a pretty good sandwich. The rye bread was a marbled rye, but very good. The cheese and meat were good. The kraut was more of a sour Cole slaw, but tasty. For fast bfood pretty hard to beat!

RE: Taking Dogs across U.S. Border
It's our government, they seem to think the more idiotic rules / laws the better. They act as if they are measured by the number of regulations / restrictions they can come up with.
Their new motto seems to be: There is no limit to what a large group of stupid people can accomplish.

RE: RC Helicopter
If you want to just fool around a little then buy a cheapy. If you want to or decide to do this seriously them find a good hobby shop and a good RC club in your area. Do not buy anything for a while, just talk and listen to people at the shop & club for as long as you can hold out. You will learn a lot of information, a pattern will emerge as to the best alternative for you. That will depend on a lot of things like - your capabilities, local experience, local weather conditions (wind speed & frequency), etc.. THe club will provide you with a safe place to fly and experienced instructors to help you learn.
Good luck and have fun.
I have flown RC since the 60's including being a club instructor.

RE: Calories
Calories are a measure of heat. Therefore to offset them you need to eat something cold like icecream !
