revolver&#8230;it&#8217;s my beloved Model 60.\u00a0 It seems the more things go south on that old war horse, the more I love it.\u00a0 This time, the revolver went out of time (that means it&#8217;s firing with the chambers misaligned with the barrel), and the way to correct that is by fitting a new hand.\u00a0 That&#8217;s the piece you see in the big photo above, showing the well-worn 60-year-old original hand on the left and a new one on the right (the hand is the part that advances the cylinder for each shot).\u00a0 Good times.\u00a0 Did I mention I love that gun?<\/p>\n<p><img

months.\u00a0 I&#8217;m visiting Janus Motorcycles in the next few weeks and I&#8217;m going to ride their new Halcyon 450.\u00a0 You may remember I rode with the Janus guys in <a href=\"http:\/\/exhaustnotes.us\/Rides.html#Janus\">Baja<\/a> three years ago (wow, those three years went by quickly).\u00a0 The Janus trip was a hoot and I was blown away by the quality of these small motorcycles.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll be in Gettysburg soon&#8230;four score and seven years ago, and you know the rest.\u00a0 Gettysburg was the turning point, and the bloodiest battle of the Civil War.\u00a0 I&#8217;m looking forward to the photo ops, and you&#8217;ll see the Nikon&#8217;s output right here.<\/p>\n<p>And another:\u00a0 Hershey, Pennsylvania&#8230;an entire town blanketed in the aroma of good chocolate, streetlights that look like Hershey kisses, calories galore, and tasty treats.\u00a0 That will be a sweet ride!<\/p>\n<p>Folks love listicles.\u00a0 There are a dozen or so reasons why a Timex is as good as a Rolex.\u00a0 That one will generate a few comments, and we&#8217;ll be bringing them to you here.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full
