On an iPad hold down on the u until it shows the umlaut. NüCamp! While maintaining the pressure on the u, slide your finger to the umlaut.

Thank you! It works on the iPad, but not on the iPhone. 

Verna

Yes it does work on the iPhone:
nüCamp!  nüCamp  nüCamp!

I haven't seen Pxl in a while-- is he travelling does anyone know?

nüCamp with the umlaut makes it look like a happy face!

You can also use the ASCII code for "U with a "diaresis."
While pressing the ALT key, type 151 on the number pad......ù
For the capital, ALT 154  Ü

Nothing like a day with a diacriticial marks discussion.

PS:  Have not tried this on my phone

@Mariner459, Like new.

Mariner, just like eric said the üm sounds like oom (e.g., put a z in front and it's zoom). The NüCamp is pronounced like "NewCamp". I thought it was clever.

ericnliz

Just another fine day in T@B land!

Homebodyatheart

Th@t it is!

marknjudy

nüCamp needs tee shirts! Like "It's a T@B thing, you wouldn't understand" (stolen from Jeep, I know), or "It another fine day in T@B land". With pictures of T@Bs on them, of course.

ericnliz

Good idea @marknjudy. You need to see the sweatshirt @Dalehelman has. You'll have to ask him where he got it....Dale? By the way, I'd go for two of those!

marknjudy

@Dalehelman, show us whatcha got! And where ya got it.

ericnliz

OK, All you "lurking folks"...SIGN IN!
My T@B is in the shop & I'm gettin' bored!

marknjudy

I understand, Eric. My issue might be worse (maybe). We're in our Spring weather cycle - 75 - 85 and sunny all week with severe storms on the weekend. Saving up my vacation time so can't go during the week for now.

ericnliz

Just got a BAD case of "cabin fever"! "Summer time, summer time, sum, sum, summer time......" Vacation, smacation, I wanna go campin....NOW!

Jeanne

Maybe today is the day I drain the antifreeze and get the T@B ready for summer, since everybody is ready to go.  

ericnliz

@Jeanne, Go for it! I did that 2 weeks ago (no antifreeze involved though), just de-winterized, put water in & ......down to 29* the next day. Drained, re-checked & everything was fine, WHEW! You've got warmer weather than do we though. Go clean 'er out & get ready, set, GO!

I had these printed at a local print shop here in Spokane Wa. They have the art work on file. You can provide your own clothing or purchase from them. They have no minimum. Phone number (509 487-2155  web address is Spokaneprinting.net The art work is filed under my name Dale Helman

As you check things out for the summer, beware of funky wiring....... I'm guessing the longer bolts are the 30 amp and the big one is the 40 amp.

Mariner459

Omg.

When the roads get too long and rough, I guess we can turn to the trees.

Verna

@Ratkity, where did you find that?? 

marknjudy

@dalehelman, awesome! If it's ok to use, I think I'll do this.

@ratkity, I told you not to use those pictures of my fuse box! Dang it! It's the one wrapped with the wire that you're concerned about, I'm sure.

@I have no words. Other that AWESOME! I want one!

Verna

@Mariner459, I wonder what is in the cabinet underneath it? Electrical or plumbing or both

Mariner459

Great observation, I bet it is the utility pedestal disguised, not sure. Found under tree houses while looking for mods.  :-)

marknjudy

Come on, don't give me a hard time about the fuses. At least I learned my lesson about putting 22 caliber bullets in the place of fuses ever since that one time...

Homebodyatheart

So Ratkity, guess  there's more than one way to skin a cat… Or fry a rat!

ericnliz

@Dalehelman, Thanks for sharing the info! Liz has been bugging me about those shirts since she saw you with them on!
@Ratkity , Step AWAY from the fuse box, no, don't fix it, STEP AWAY!
@Mariner459 , Now we all know what you did with your LAST RV! I'll bet that's an elevator, huh?
@marknjudy , Guess .22 is better than usin' a 9mm, or .44 caliber.....poof, boom....fuse box problem solved!
Hah, We used to just wrap Wrigley's foil gum wrappers around the dead ones.

Well, ahem.. ya see, well.... I PROMISE I DIDN'T LICK THE FUSES TO SEE IF IT WAS LIVE!! But other than that, I'm not sure what I remember. 

Eric, we used to put foil in the cigarette lighter end that held the fuse until it melted.

Everyone... what.ever.you.do.... DON'T use "ratshot" (same as snake shot in some parts of da country). I tell ya, it was all a shock and blur, rather stunning to say the least. I'm not even a bit charred by the experience at all! A recordings have been confiscated by some TV show called "World's Yummiest?" I didn't catch the last word as I was passing out from laughter. :lol;

Dale - LUV DEM SHIRTS!!
