If those students had some savvy, they’d have suggested creating a list of the addresses in Excel and a mail-merge envelope address template in Word. Run the merge to create a document with a separate page for each envelope. Print the document with the correct page setup. Depending on the printer, you might have to feed the envelopes one by one. ALL of this is covered in numerous YouTube videos (though likely NOT on Insta or TikTok) . 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It amazes me that our wonderful public schools desperately need new laptops every time there is a minor change in operating systems, yet students never mastered those from 34 years ago.

We lined up the input pulley on the hydro with the PTO pulley on the 953 and used a 110" x 1/2" belt to drive the hydro. The rear wheels were off the ground until the fluid was circulating then we let the tractor on the ground, engaged the PTO and let the hydro pull the 953. Another successful test and another good hydro. @953 nut 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Keaton 371 #7007 Posted July 21 today I got my engine unstuck on a springfrild and my house almost burnt down besides that good day, the dog when we were gone jumped up on the stove to get a donut and turned on a burnes and lit a box and container on fire, thankfully we got home before it spread, and everyone was ok, besides the whole house smelling like burnt plastic, I also got my lawn boy running and mowed part of the yard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Many years ago I did work with a fella who only drank black coffee. He had a VERY STRICT rule about not washing his office coffee mug. Rinse only. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agree for simplicity, and definitely for lack of knowledge/initiative, but when fundraising, mail addressed with labels doesn’t send a good message. At the school where my spouse worked, they enlisted students to hand-address selected solicitations. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The refrigerator repairman that the burger joint I worked at in high school swore by coffee as a cleaner. He would grab a coffee pot and pour it over bits and pieces that he was preparing to solder. Not sure the owner was real thrilled about that, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've read that the brown material accumulated on the pan sides is what makes coffee bitter. That's why my Bear Boiled Coffee is smoother and sweeter than the same brand grounds from a machine.
