Sometimes I think I need an alarm to wake me up so I can get up off the couch and go to bed.

And yet we have folks in the “what car do you drive” thread saying $300-$500 for an oil change is OK by them.

I used to go down to the tennis courts and hit a few balls back and forth with my wife. Then covid happened and the courts were off limit. My driveway is large and flat enough that I could paint a pickleball court on it. I bought a portable net, and we used the heck out of that court when that...

Yup. Remodeled one bathroom and then the kitchen. I’m getting up there in years so I thought I’d let someone else do the master bathroom. Get a quote for $17k for just the shower. Panels, not tile. No tub, no vanity, no floors, no new fixtures, no paint; just the shower. So now I’m going to do...

How much you wanna spend to get 100% American? Partner Steel is 100% US made but really, really expensive. Camp Chef makes good stuff that is mostly US made using offshore parts. Or like you say, you could get an older US or Canadian made Coleman gas stove and convert it to propane with this...

I have one of the original ones; don’t know if it’s 1.0 or whatever, but unless it has been improved significantly, I can’t recommend it. I need to be within a foot of a fly that has landed to score a hit that stuns the critter. Nine times out of ten I scare them off with my approach. Around...

I do.

I remember him from the TV series 'Major Crimes', a spin off of 'The Closer'.
