Thanks for the birthday wishes! If I had of known I'd last this long I would have taken better care of myself....lol.

I can dig that and I got one year more on you, but I have this portrait that ages for me. Happy Birthday!

Well mom and dad are heading to North Carolina on Friday. What to do, what to do... My brother and I are going to be figuring that one out quickly. Too bad the Daytona 500 isn't on.

RR,

Let's hope your outing works out and you and your brother have lots of fun. Try to bring back some pictures for the crew.

We're staying behind, they're going to NC. No big deal, we got school anyways, but what to do afterwards. I guess I'll work on fluting some points.


I've been to NC before, passing through to SC and then GA. It was awesome, but tropical.

This is your chance to sneak out and buy a tractor! That askin 1400 sweet Super A Farmall in Louisville is still for sale...

(I know it's Lewisville on the vid not Loiusville,and it's Loiusville Mississippi not Louisville Kentuck.. But it's still a fun travelin tune from my past.)

I found a good way to clean bottles, but my hands burn like hell. I guess I'll need gloves.

Take salt and vinegar, and pour it into a large plastic container with a lid. (pretzel containers work fine) Take a THICK walled bottle, not thin paned meds,* and place inside the container. Gently swish the mixture around for about five to ten minutes. Do not drain. Add more salt, some warm water, and Oxi-Clean, and swish around for ten to fifteen minutes. Drain and let dry. Your bottle should look considerably better.

The science behind it is, Vinegar is an acid. Acetic Acid to be exact. The cloudy stain on your bottle is lime scale, or calcium buildup. The Vinegar reacts with the Calcium, and it begins to dissolve.

CaCo3 + 2CH3COOH - Ca(CH3OO)2 +H20 + Co2

The Oxi clean is slightly corrosive, and it does a good job of removing what is left. Salt kills whatever bubbles would be formed, so you won't get a sudsy mess, but it will still work. The salt also helps as a cleaner.

Your bottles won't be perfect, but they'll be better from when they started. Like I said, do this on thick bottles, not meds or anything like that. Remember to GENTLY swish around, don't do it violently.

I have been using Stain Away Plus Antibacterial Denture Cleaner. Put my bottle in an appropriate sized bowl/tub, add cleaner to bottle. Fill bowl/tub with warm water and let her all soak. Periodically go back and scrub with brushes until I am satisfied. But it does have to set for several days and ties up space. So, yesterday, I too researched other ways to clean. I found these 2 videos. Well, I found more, but these are the 2 I am going to try. In the 2nd one, I liked the baby oil tip. I will give your method a try also.
