I saw that heater the other day while I was doing a web search.

That one looks pretty good. It's 300 watts. Most are usually around one hundred. Price doesn't look bad on it either!


I think Kleefisch lost in the election. But he put up a good fight, and his sign will eventually become my engine compartment splash guard.

Also, wood is very easy to cut and otherwise work with. I remember my grandfather telling my about his very first car. He bought it for $25. The first thing he had to do was cut some wood to replace the rotted door. It took me a minute to realize that WAY back then, the ENTIRE car body was wood!!! I'm sure that car was old even when he got it!
