My trailer swivel jack just seized up. Couldn't get it to go up or down. We have an EZ Loader trailer with the stock swivel jack, about one year old. We had lubricated the tube and greased it in the last month. Any suggestions on a manufacturer for a new one and how is it routinely maintained...

Thanks for the memories Noro Lim. I also lived in Fremont and went back to school on the GI Bill, only it was in the 70s. For those who are against providing a hand up for getting a start in life, thank you GI Bill. I wouldn't have got my re-start in life without it. I also believe it should...

Its pretty clear, given the number of pages in this thread, that a lot of folks find this topic interesting and worth posting on. You have control of your mouse.

We've insured our boats with Progressive for 21 years. Last year we settled a $30k claim with them. Took a little while but in the end they were fair. Even after the claim the increase was no more than what we had seen in previous years. The agreed value they offer in their policy is important.

and Georgia.

Another possibility which is already in progress is the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact. The NPVIC is an agreement among a group of U.S. states and the District of Columbia to award all their electoral votes to whichever presidential candidate wins the overall popular vote in the 50...

and limit the time our elected officials can campaign. Seem like half or more of their time is trying to get re-elected and fishing for campaign donations.

Regarding the discussions around whether or not your vote counts in the presidential election, it is everyone's civil duty and responsibility to vote. Anyone who chooses to not vote doesn't deserve a seat at the table. It is interesting that one of the unintended (and good) consequences of such...

Democracy- government by the people especially : rule of the majority. b : a government in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised by them directly or indirectly through a system of representation usually involving periodically held free elections. Republic- form of...

What I have found when discussing the current political situation and election with those that support Trump is that they fail to engage in specifics. When those that do not support Trump bring up specifics regarding Trump and his administration, those that support Trump resort to platitudes...

Like all other remotely political threads, expect this important thread to be moved into the members only That's Life forum because of optics.

I never cheer and am sympathetic towards anyone who contracts Covid. Maybe this will be the kick in the ass for our leadership to finally formulate and promulgate a plan for effectively fighting Covid 19. The plan should be based on science, on wearing masks, social distancing and hand washing...

Be sure to vote on Nov 3 and make it easier for those that are legally entitled to vote to vote.

Testing the limits perhaps but mild in comparison to some of Trump's rhetoric.

I think moving previous discussions like this to "That's Life" was a mistake. Rather than being a negative to visitors, I think it is a positive. It shows how members really do follow the "just be nice" guideline and can accept comments from other silos. I agree this is a boating forum but we...

Here's Trump's scorecard on promises kept......he's kept 18% of his campaign promises. https://www.politifact.com/truth-o-mete ... uling=true As far as I can tell all except 2 of his promises were implemented by executive order; not that Obama did much better given that both were dealing with...

It must now be transparently obvious what Trump's real reason is for pushing to prematurely open the economy despite all his health advisor's cautions against it. Its for his re-election. That's his top priority and if there are more deaths as a result, then so be it. As we have recently read...

Big surprise this morning. Safeco gave me a $74 refund on my car insurance for, I guess, driving less during the pandemic.

There's a whole lot of bad stuff coming out of Covid but what are the unexpected good things? 1. Air pollution is decreased. 2. We can drive thru Seattle on I-5 any time on any day and still stay at or near the speed limit. 3. Most everyone is friendly and waves during my daily walks thru the...

My post was only to present a potential reason for the polarization, divisiveness, and just plain hate that Democrats and Republicans seem to have for each other. If we could just ignore politicians, the media and the extreme 15% on ether side of the spectrum, I'll bet the remaining 70% of...
