  1. Did you spy on us last weekend? We knew our fridge went out at some point before we got there. We learned our lesson in the past so we leave hardly anything in the freezer anymore. Had some goop in the freezer but fridge portion was fine. Couldn't get it working even on gas. It was hot. We had some very large downed trees and needed to repair 2 feeders after 2 friggin cows got on the property. We had to stop about 3:30 Saturday. One buddy was starting to stumble, but he's notorious for fainting. He's done it since college. We told him to go in and cool off while we finished monkeying with the feeders. We found that we have 2 sections of fence down so we know where the cows came from. Problem is they have been there for a long time and we have no idea who the landowner is that needs to get them off. Should we ask our local game warden?
  2. I did not realize Managers at Bubba Gump made that much money.
  3. Get ready for that police report to not be in your favor.
  4. There is always someone that will do it cheaper. There are plenty of times we get beat by competitors but I know the margins they are accepting to do a job. I'm not willing to do a job below X% profit margins. More often than not, they have much lower overhead and the owner is doing the work himself, but come warranty time he's hard to get hold of. Now the offer to replace all 3 when only 1 was "needed" was nonsense.
  5. My answer is always Beulah Ballbreaker.
  6. Would we take a bus to get there?
  7. Driver can’t push it?
  8. my BIL is a master electrician. He charged me to install a whole home surge protector.
  9. My Mom had a storage unit with all her teaching materials well after retirement. She thought someone might want it. No idea who, but somebody might. We threw it all away a month after she passed.
  10. Transformers Rise of the Beasts. Family night for $5 so we took the kids. What a steaming pile. Actors were worse than Marky Mark and that is tough to do.
  11. AC systems are balanced so when you close a vent you throw off the balance by increasing the static pressure in the system.
  12. Ac doesn't work like that. Closing off vents makes the unit work harder.
  13. MIL does this and has many little post its with notes all over each page. It's at least a 1 hour process to check in. I usually wait at the bar with my FIL and pray for the poor soul that was working the desk.
  14. Yeah to a degree. I watched Mom take her last breath while asking for water in her bed. As a son not being able to give it to her was a feeling I’ll never wish on anyone. Nasty and short battle with leukemia. Pop has had issues for years. Double bypass, Non Hodgkins Lymphoma, 2 heart attacks, prostate cancer and Nearly died about 6 weeks ago after choking on steak at the country club. Was barely saved by a buddy of his.
  15. Yeah that’s crazy. I have a 24 SEER2 system and it rarely turns on during the day set to 75.
  16. Does he come from good stock?
  17. Sorry to hear that Jiggy. Mine has had some issues lately and told me he prepaid for all his funeral costs last week. Odd message but I know what is coming and I’ll feel the same as you.
  18. Din din? No self respecting man talks like that.
  19. We have another thread for aches and pains so this one is for the lulz. Pop turned 80 in April. The last 2 trips to my house he has blessed me with yet another jar of Miracle Whip. He apparently gets them free at HEB. Yes, I like MW and on the rare occasion I have a sangwich, I'll use MW. It takes quite a while to go through a jar, so now that I have 2 full jars plus one in the fridge I'm set. Love my Dad but this type thing is becoming more commonplace.
