    We have a 9 year old Hayward 6060 0.5 HP Booster Pump for the leaf crawler.Β  It has been whistling for a while and yesterday it finally gave up the ghost.Β  Am I married to the Hayward Pump, or can I get a generic pump and just re-align the fittings if the input/output doesn't match the current piping?

    I ended up turning off the timer to the Polaris Creeper.Β  I had amassed free Amazon points from a vendor and found a knock off Robot for less than $500.Β  We are going on now about three weeks and it seems to be doing a pretty good job so far.Β  It picks up most of the small debris, leaves, etc.Β  I like the way it climbs the walls and "scrubs" at the same time.Β  It is rechargeable and the battery seems to last about two hours.Β  I have been running it mostly every other day.Β  I wish there was a solar option so that I could leave it in the pool all day and it would recharge while it vacuumed.Β  Β And I am not sure how it will work in the fall when the acorns start to fall.Β  That seemed to be a big issue with the Polaris as well.Β Β 

    Overall, I am pleased with the purchase so far.Β  Thanks for the help and input.

    I'm just happy most everyone seems to be wearing a mask.Β Β 

    I am technically on a UT campus today at MD Anderson (Mrs Twosheds is receiving treatments), and I can assure you that everyone here is also wearing masks.Β Β 

  4. The water table here in the East Texas boonies is literally at the top of the ground.

    Two months later and this is till accurate. Toledo Bend Dam currently has five gates open at a foot each.

    After this week’s 8”+ event all the standing water around the hood has this sheen that is seeping from the ground.

    Started Death and other Details on Hulu. Β  It is derivative as fuck - combo Knives Out meets White Lotus meets Only Murders.. meets Succession. Β 
    Β 

    That said, first episode was intriguing. Β May or may not deserve its own thread. Β 

    The last two episodes of S1 streamed last night.Β  Β I enjoyed this series more than I thought I would.Β  Eps 9 and 10 caught me off guard with the resolution.Β  I also enjoyed the flashbacks with the present day Imogene watching and seeing events through more mature eyes.Β  Leila was easy on the eyes as well.

    I will watch Season 2 if it exists, and if not too much time passes before I forget that I enjoyed Season 1.

  6. So I was in the yard this morning after coffee. Just watering what flowers are still alive and putzing around. I had already taken care of the bowel movement earlier and was just enjoying my early day. I farted, or so I thought, and immediately felt dampness in the buttock area. It seemed as if my rectum had coughed, or sneezed(?). Very peculiar. My drawers had a bit of shart mucus that was the consistency of phlegm. I cleaned up and continued my day. Welcome to the club now, I guess.
