Dear ,
Can you believe we're almost finished with January, 2017?
Holy potato!
Small Engine Reminder!!
Just after sending this to you, I'm going to go up to my shed and start my lawn mower and my walk-behind string
trimmer.
I'll also briefly start my gas-powered pressure washer. You need water passing through it to cool it if you run it for more than 30 seconds.
Two weeks ago while cleaning out the garage, I started and ran my small generator and log splitter.
It's been three months since I've used the three engines sitting up in my shed and I want to get some fresh gasoline up into the carburetor. I've got fuel stabilizer in the gas tanks, but it's a great idea to run small engines every few months.
The engineers at Briggs & Stratton told me so.

In just eleven days you're going to have some fun.
Early on the morning of the day the NFL has a Super game, (I'm not allowed to say the real name here because they punish people who use it to promote anything), there's going to be an email waiting for you in
your Inbox.
Please open it and have some fun. I GUARANTEE you that you'll discover something you didn't know and you'll see photos that will bring you lots of happiness.
Email Training
I want to thank you for
responding to my request to help train your email provider to not mark this newsletter as SPAM.
I got many responses. One that brought me lots of happiness was from Donna who lives in northern Iowa.
Here's what Donna sent:
"Hi Tim,
The first thing I do in the morning is check my e-mail to see if “ASK THE BUILDER” is waiting to greet me for
the day.
Keep up the good work.
You are by far the BEST internet friend I have ever had.
I am 89 years young and I “get it”."
I'm so very lucky to have Donna, and you, as my virtual friends.
This is why I always try to do an in-person meet up when I travel.
I've had the great pleasure to meet many subscribers for an eyeball conversation and they're always a fantastic time.
Let's hope I can swing through Iowa and meet you Donna!
And Another One
Hours after getting the message from Donna I got one from Kathryn.
She said,
"Tim,
I don't always respond to "Ask the Builder" emails, but when I do, it's to say THANKS for the hard work and info!!!"
That brought a HUGE smile to my face because I immediately created an image in my head of those words put on one of "The World's Most Interesting Man"
memes.
I immediately went to a website where you can create one and sent this back to Kathryn asking her if she could see it:
