Fixing a singer 201 sewing machine

I remember an OLD singer my mom had when I was a kid. It was foot pedal operated but, if I remember right, had been modified to have a motor. The actual machine, again, if I remember right, actually folded down under the top to make it like a table when not in use.

As to what I'm actually doing the rest of most of the day is watching little girls playing with balls. The Little League fast pitch softball tournaments are in progress and I love watching these kids play ball. The talent and ability these kids show is WAY beyond their age.

Good day on the Little Po.

My life is complete as I actually won an argument with a woman today...

You know this is a fallacy; as woman are always right. What happened is she twisted your argument so you argued her point and then she acknowledged that she was right.

My mom has a 40+ year old singer but i have no clue the model number

Maybe next time i go over to her home i should check; if it happens to be 201 wouldn't that be something.

I'm trying to decide if i should or should not fart. If no one hears you fart in public did you fart in public ? These are the things i have to decide for today and if i fail to decide today there is always tomorrow.

It seems to be like asking Björk about farts...

I have thought about this in certain situations, for example, during my gym exercises. I usually do not do this. Although I know that this is a normal process and bacteria produce gases with a foul odor due to hydrogen sulfide, I typically do not do this in an environment like this. I have a Boxer dog who produces terrible fart odour when she is sleeping or simply lying down. Silent farts usually make the worst smell.

Good day on the Little Po.

Beautiful fish. Are they salmon? Trout?

Brook trout, Salvelinus fontinalis. They're classified as a game fish around here, but ecologically they're an invasive that has largely displaced the native cutthroats. (The creek I was fishing in used to be FULL of cutthroats, but all I caught today was brookies) So, I was doing the ecosystem a favor by keeping 14 of them (you're allowed to keep up to 16 per day). Guess I'll be firing up the smoker tomorrow.

Really needed this today; been in a bit of a slump. Fly fishing is a lot cheaper than therapy.

Brookies are native to NY -- They were decimated first by road construction and then acid rain. They are making a small comeback though and DEC is hard at work helping them along. The native brookies were really great game fish at one time.

Brook trout, Salvelinus fontinalis. They are really beautiful, one of the prettiest in northern North America.

I could have sworn i had just read this statement - i guess it was déjà vu.

The question was if Dick Van Dyke was actually considered a clown. Yes, he was, especially in the earlier days of his career. He has always been a favorite of mine and I still watch re-runs of Diagnostic Murder. I'd probably watch re-runs of the Dick Van Dyke show with Mary Tyler Moore but haven't seen it around. Well, it is around at least on YouTube.

You can find Dick Van Dyke reruns on Pluto TV app via a smart TV or device such as a Roku.

Farts are a particular fascination of mine and I’ve never thought about this . If no one smells the fart then the effort was wasted but you still did fart in public . This reminds me of that old thing about a tree falling in the woods with no one there or if a man speaks and there’s no woman to hear him is he still wrong ? Please continue to fart in public as it brings much enjoyment to people of all kinds .

Too bad they are invasive species. Is it possible to catch them with black soldier fly larvae (Hermetia illucens)? I never did fly fishing, only fish with BSFL, a kind of boilie (at least I suppose, it is called in Brazil as "massinha" or "massa"), worms, and even rabbit food. Did I ever show here my Tilapia fishing I did in July 2022, during a windy and cool day at a "Pay to fish" enterprise ("pesque-pague")? I am sorry in case of sending the same photos.

For good fun, when your friends come over to your house, put a whoopee cushion under the sofa cushion.

If you let out a real fart when you have stuffy relatives over who don't have a sense of humor, you can always blame it on the dog...that is IF you have a dog.

For some fun, ask your Alexa Echo device to fart.

We frequently blame the "Rocky Mountain Barking Spider." When somebody makes that sound, at least when we're outside, somebody else will yell, "Spider!" and stomp on it.
