  1. I guess what I'm asking is should I just ask for a flat out credit? If so, how much? $500, 1000? Anyone have any idea how much it would cost to remove from the circuit?
  2. Well, we're buying a house that has a pool. Never owned or dealt with all the issues that accompanies having a pool. Does anyone have a resource where I can gain some knowledge and understanding? I got the pool inspected. I wasn't too happy with the inspector but this is what I got. Thoughts? Image 1 -- 3.5 Visible Piping: There is a line on the pressure (return) side of the plumbing that isn’t labeled and doesn’t seem to do anything within the pool when flow is sent to it. Ask the seller’s about this line to discover what function it serves. Image 2 -- Easy fix? -- 3.9 Automatic Cleaning Equipment: The suction cleaner works fine when most of the pump’s suction volume is dedicated to it via the diverter valve. This is common for suction cleaners of this type; they are volume hogs. The fitting the cleaner plugs into at the pool wall is broken and doesn’t have the required cover. When the cleaner is unplugged, the suction outlet is open and could injure pool occupants. Expect to pay between $27 and $41 online for a new fitting. Image 3 -- I'm annoyed that he put what he did in the report. I think I might have trouble getting a cash allowance at closing on it -- 5.0 Ozone Generator: This ozone generator didn’t seem to be working. They are designed to help sanitize the pool water so that it requires less chlorine. Full disclosure: these devices aren’t that effective. Also, there is no minimum water ozone content to achieve sanitation, let alone a way to measure water ozone content. Don’t bother replacing it. Next time the system is to receive significant repairs or maintenance, consider having the system removed.
  3. Yea, but isn't that weekend always a shitshow? We will be there at the house and beach only. No other outings
  4. Thanks. We will be going the long way around vs ferry
  5. Which cut did you prefer, with or against?
  6. Just do what you have been and give the bone(s) to your neighbor
  7. I used to make regular trips there when I lived in Uptown back in the day. My list includes the spicy sausage, any other meats I can find, the biggest can of San Marzanos I can find, back up dough balls, olive oil(s), and a variety of their frozen pastas (mainly lobster ravioli if they have it).
  8. How was Jimmy's? Well stocked? I'm thinking in a month or so I'll make it down there.
  9. Anyone else use a pumice stone?
  10. Yea, I posted it there too just in case. I'm certainly not married to the numbers. I just now have 3 smokers plus a Weber gasser and just got a Ooni Pro pizza oven...sooooo my wife is a bit feisty as of late.
  11. That's fair. How about I'm willing to meeting in far North Dallas? Gotta keep you pervy fucks away from my family
  12. To be better put -- don't be a schlub, folks, learn the art of using the double-hinged waiter's corkscrew as AustinMT has pictured. I started home happy hour early /shrug
  13. Dont be a schlub, a proper gentleman should perfect the skill of uncorking a bottle of good wine with this utensil.
  14. I'm looking to sell one or, possibly, both of my WSM. 18 -- In good shape but needs 1 new top grate. $160ish sounds good? 22 -- In grate! shape. Newer model w/ the temp port. $375ish? Located in far N Dallas (Prosper)
  15. I have both an 18 and 22 WSM and am looking to offload one of the 2. PM me if you know anyone that might be interested. Posting in For Sale too.
  16. Inside looks good, but pellets can't sear for shit. And this is coming from someone w/ a Rectec pellet w/ sear grates. Gas, charcoal, or cast iron for me
  17. I'll hold off for now. I'm headed to the lake house early next week and would rather not worry about missing it in the mail. I'll re-engage in a few weeks
  18. I'm going to hold off heading down south until things die down a bit.
  19. Have you been over to Bolivar lately? We have a friend trip w kids (5 families) planned there for a month from now and I'm wondering if it might be dicey
  20. Anyone know how Bolivar is looking these days? We have a friend trip planned July 22nd
  21. Sweet. I'm in Prosper. What part of Dallas? I might make a trip to Jimmy's in the near future to get some goods
