    Currently Parting '04 DII, '02 DII, '01 DII, '98 DI LSE

    My bumper (original '99 dII; saving up for a Greg Davis) is pretty smashed up and the lights are shadows of their former selves. I've been told that one can swap lights from an 03-04 dII to get the turn signals up where they belong. Do you have a pair available? How much would they be? I'm...

    Dweb take on Infant Vaccines

    Nope, saw 'em all come out the wife. Funny how they look like the mailman, the milkman, and the guy that checks the electric meter, though. 8^)

    Dweb take on Infant Vaccines

    Study after study (http://www.parentdish.com/2008/01/08/no-link-between-vaccines-and-autism/) has shown that there is no link between vaccines and autism. Except the first one: http://www.parentdish.com/2009/02/11/doctor-who-linked-autism-and-vaccines-faked-data/ My kids are all vaccinated and...

    If You Could Replace Obama

    If I had to replace him, I'd probably go with Gavin Newsom and maybe Jerry Brown as VP.

    Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's dead Karate Kid 3 The one that trumps all of them, however, is Traxx. http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0096302/ God that was an awful movie.

    Worst Movies

    Actually, the story is Homer's epic poem "The Odyssey". The Soundtrack was great too, and introduced a lot of people to some of the greats of the bluegrass/folk world (and the music too, for that matter).

    Trail Menu Ideas

    Actually, the eggs get scrambled in the bottle; they just get poured into a hot pan. It's a trick I learned when I was leading trips for the Sierra Club -- why go through a lot of trouble to avoid cracking eggs when you're just going to crack them anyway? (And if you're feeding a whole mess of...

    found these on the bay...limb riser/bush cable

    I've played around with the idea of limb risers, mostly because I had (many years ago) a source for really cheap cable. Still, I don't get out and about often enough to make it worth doing any more than ponder them. That said, does it seem odd that the guy on eBay has the fancy rack and the...

    I dice chicken, then saute it. Let it cool down, pack it in a ziploc, and freeze it. http://www.sinasohn.net/notebooks/200506300700.html

    It's great... you haven't had my eggs. 8^) They always seem to disappear on our trips.

    Rear Cargo Storage Drawer Systems

    We love it too... except that now that we've got three kids, it's rather too small. 8^) I'm looking forward to the day when the kids can sleep up there and the wife and I can have our own tent. With a locking door. I will say, that it's pretty solid -- tried to go into a garage with a big...

    Parting out a 99' DII

    Do you have the coin tray that goes in the dash? What about either the cupholder tray that comes out of the center arm rest in the rear seats or, if necessary, that whole arm? And what would you want for the rear step and any idea of the cost to ship to 94127?

    Trail Menu Ideas

    When we go camping -- five or six families -- I crack a couple dozen eggs into a juice bottle at home, add some garlic, onion, and spices, pour in a bit of milk, and close it up. When we get to camp, in the morning, I pour 'em into a pot and make pot-bottom eggs. Just keep scraping the cooked...

    underhood light

    We have one of these in our tent and it works pretty well. It has a really strong magnet on the backside. Fairly inexpensive too. http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/601-0351054-0462522?ASIN=B000DLB8MU

    JUST BOUGHT A 110 and RR SPORT!!!!!

    I'm not sure when it was last updated, but Lloyd Allison has a pretty comprehensive list of older models from around the world. http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~lloyd/4/LandRover/Toys/ Btw, Toys-R-Us has an orange (or yellow?) disco in their line-up.

    luggage space setup

    It won't help you, but I've found that 4 conticos (see pic) fit perfectly in the back with the seats up. You can do another full layer on top of that, but it would be better if the loadspace cover weren't there. This works really well for us -- we just pack clothes, the kids' toys, whatever...

    What's the best DII aftermarket rear bumper?

    Okay, pending approval from the CFO (wife), I'm in too. Greg, can I trade you one of my kids? (or both? Please?) I'll let you know by tomorrow.
