My first drive by history video- The Sinbad motel Miami Florida
I have lived in South Florida all my life and my family has been here since 1919. I am starting a series of short out of the ordinary history videos describing historical places and events that happened in those places here in South Florida that can be seen as you drive by in your car. The first one is concerning the Sinbad motel which you can see as you drive by on Biscayne Boulevard and NE 64 st in Miami Florida. I am not changing the theme of my channel, I will still be making DIY and low cost money saving videos, etc, but wanted to experiment with Google earth and thought this would be a good way to learn how to use Google earth properly to make better videos.
Why does your car fuse keep blowing?
Can you find an electrical short in your car without any tools?
What are the most common reasons a car fuse keeps blowing? These are the questions I hope to answer in this video.
If your car keeps blowing fuses and you are not a mechanic or electrician and do not have any tools or experience believe it or not sometimes you can get lucky and find the cause for your electrical short just by knowing where to look.
Will these 12 reasons solve your electrical short problem? Sometimes.
If you come up with any additional reasons or tips that might help others please leave your helpful information in the comment section.
1 wrong fuse
2 added electronics
3 car repairs
4 car damage
5 rusty connectors or brittle plastic
6 chewed wires
7 tight battery cable and loose battery
8 damaged cigarette lighter
9 bending fatigue and wire
10 trunk lights and hood lights are a major cause
11 bad switch
12 wrong bulbs or parts

This is not the best way to drain a radiator. I did not want to use any tools or make any mess but still add some fresh fluid as my radiator has been neglected far too long.
The radiator in some cars only holds about half of the coolant, the rest is in the heater coil and engine block.
After draining the radiator I added water and ran the engine to operating temperature and did this a couple of times. The water got much cleaner but never was clear like if you ran with an open hose attached or correctly drained the system by removing the hose and thermostat.
I live in South Florida so I do not really need antifreeze so if my concentration is a little low that is not a problem. If you need antifreeze you will have to add concentrated fluid if there is water still in your block and heater. If you add normal antifreeze and there is a lot of water in your system your coolant will be diluted. you can test your liquid to check your antifreeze concentration and also test the pH to verify it is not acidic.
I need to say I am not a mechanic. This is not expert advice, I am just a guy who has been reluctant to change his radiator fluid because he lives in an apartment building and wanted to try this and see what would happen.
This drain pan is very handy

This is a lure or fly to use surf fishing. It is made from a pistachio nut and mimics a mole crab or sand flea or sand crab with an orange egg sack. I learned about using a pistachio from Fish Gum. You can check out his wonderful fishing channel here.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5OrsGt3voU
I made my crab a little different and added some micro fiber cloth to mimic the egg sac and made little legs and antennae with rubber bands and hot glue. I have not used my little DIY bugs yet so can't vouch for how well they will work. When I use my lure I will add some pomp chew I got from Fish Gum and also add some homemade fish attractant I make from raw shrimp and Crisco and add it to the cloth to give the lure an added fishy smell.
here is my Florida Fishing Playlist

Today I review $1 Beef patties from the Dollar Tree dollar store made by Chef's requested brand.
Last week I bought a dozen or so items from the frozen food section of the Dollar Tree store and have been preparing and reviewing them for you guys. You know you always wondered about some of this food so I am trying it out for you.
I think this particular brand of beef patties would be wonderful, ideal actually if you were trying to get someone to leave and never come back to your house again.
These beef patties have so many uses. I can imagine if you ever needed to stop a train you could put the beef patties on a train track and the wheels of the train would spin in the grease and not be able to advance. or, imagine you were in a fearful storm at sea, by just cooking these patties up and throwing the oil into the water you could keep the waves from breaking and overwhelming your vessel. These patties are mighty and powerful and full of potential non gastronomical possibilities.
Just do not eat them yourself.
No.
Do not do that.
PLEASE!
The Dollar store Riblets were on the list to be next as many viewers asked me to review them but I wanted to get this one out of the way.
Please check out my playlists, I have started a playlist just for my review videos. I think they are going to be fun and I plan on doing a lot more review videos. Please let me know if there is some item, even if it is not food related you would like me to review.

This may be my last cooking video.
I don't know if I can make them
any better than this one. LOL
Hope you enjoy it. I did. I really did.
Here is the recipe.
Robb's Favorite French recipe of all my French recipes
that only takes 1 1/2 minute in the microwave:
1.Sous-marins endormis avec des épinards
2.Mon oncle a un peu de poulet
3.Les grenouilles gelées à la nuit
4.Aidez-nous. Je ne peux pas arrêter
de faire de terribles vidéos youtube
If you substitute the tomato for some cheese you won't be sorry.
The pork sausage patty is vegetarian from Morningstar, but Jimmy Dean used to be my middle name so feel free to go hog wild.
If you speak French do not spoil it for the rest of us.
Even though I spelled my name wrong at the end and I saw an ant on the kitchen counter this is probably one of my favorite goofy movies I have made since I have been on YouTube.
Enjoy.
laissez le bon temps rouler

Out of all the random topics I have covered in my YouTube videos on my channel, I would say I know more about the subject of picking thrift stores and selling on eBay than any other topic. However, I have made very few videos on the subject.
To see some of the videos I made and uploaded earlier concerning this topic, see the links below.
If you are interested in that book I wrote ten years ago that I am asking you not to buy, it is here at Amazon.

I used to go fishing behind the post office on Hiatus in west Broward. It was a great spot for bass and snakehead and very private. Now they are extending the road and building a bridge at my secluded fishing spot. Another fishing spot disappears.
There are fewer and fewer places people can comfortably fish without a boat in South Florida. there are still some great spots but they are fewer all the time. There used to be places on Miami Beach I could fish at seawalls at the end of a road and then houses were built on both sides of the street and the residents would get mad if we fished from the seawall even though we were on public property. Then they would add landscaping and put up no fishing signs. In one case I know of the property owner just annexed the property at the end of the street and claimed it belonged to them.
I have had people yell at me for fishing on the beach even though there were no bathers or people nearby on the sand. One person actully walked down the shore and when he got to where i was standing at the edge of the water he walked out into the water and then stopped in front of me and pointed a mile down the beach to where there was a pier and said I should g fish from the pier. I told him I appreciated him providing me with that information and wished him a good day. He appeared as if he was going to have a bowel movement and moved on.
Too many fishermen bring on the well-earned wrath from residents by their bad behavior such as making too much noise or leaving a mess or disrespecting the environment or fishing laws or private property rights,., but too many residents think they can prevent others from enjoying a little fishing that is harming no one.

82-year-old Ocean voyager Sven Yrvind has been making and eating DIY Muesli for a long time. The great thing about Sven's DIY muesli is it is very compact and nutritious and tasty enough to live on it for a long time on his ocean journeys. This food is a great prepper survival food. If I was going on a long trip I think this food would be an ideal one to have. I have been eating something similar for almost 30 years.
here is Sven's youTube channel and a link to his video showing how he makes it. I think he also takes along some sardines but the muesli is the main food he eats daily. You can see by the energy he has in his videos and accomplishments that muesli has been very healthy for Sven to eat.
