Welcome to my blog http://www.skegley.blogspot.com/ . CAVEAT LECTOR- Let the reader beware. This is a Christian Conservative blog. It is not meant to offend anyone.

For Christian American readers of this blog:


I wish to incite all Christians to rise up and take back the United States of America with all of God's manifold blessings. We want the free allowance of the Bible and prayers allowed again in schools, halls of justice, and all governing bodies. We don't seek a theocracy until Jesus returns to earth because all men are weak and power corrupts the very best of them.
We want to be a kinder and gentler people without slavery or condescension to any.

The world seems to be in a time of discontent among the populace. Christians should not fear. God is Love, shown best through Jesus Christ. God is still in control. All Glory to our Creator and to our God!


A favorite quote from my good friend, Jack Plymale, which I appreciate:

"Wars are planned by old men,in council rooms apart. They plan for greater armament, they map the battle chart, but: where sightless eyes stare out, beyond life's vanished joys, I've noticed,somehow, all the dead and mamed are hardly more than boys(Grantland Rice per our mutual friend, Sarah Rapp)."

Thanks Jack!

I must admit that I do not check authenticity of my posts. If anyone can tell me of a non-biased arbitrator, I will attempt to do so more regularly. I know of no such arbitrator for the internet.

Giant Scrap Car Grinder ... Thx Ralph H!



Subject: Giant Scrap CAR Grinder, Like The Bimford 8000

Thanks Ralph!

The City of Columbus was ahead of most other US cities with their trash burning power plant and three large Jeffrey grinders.  One problem was that the propane cylinders and other explodeable type devices would cause explosions.  The Jeffrey Mining Hammers were approx. 8" by 12" by 24" of steel.  As a sales metallurgist for Eutectic, I sold the hard-facing alloy rods for the welders at each plant to build up the worn edges of the hammers to keep them working like new.

Bad press and politics got the so-called "Trash-burning power plant to be shut down.  I am not sure it was not the lobbying of the electric power companies that killed the project and it has been gone for several years now.  There is wealth in trash and God knows the US wastes a lot!




   









I COULD BELIEVE THE CAR, BUT THE ENGINES???
