And this is why when I travel, I take my own bed...mounted in my RV.

On all the units I've seen, you have the option of just not turning the heat on. I don't think the heater is the expensive part of the fireplace.

Is it too much to ask that the furnished apps work?

I have no fucking idea what any of that means nor do I wish to learn. I thought the idea, a long time ago, was was that the home computer was going to be no more difficult to operate than a toaster. If I can't click "mail" and get my mail, I have no use for Win 10.

I wish it worked, but I'm not computer savvy enough (or patient enough) to figure out why window's own mail or calendar app doesn't work or why now my built in SD card reader doesn't work.

Restored Windows 7. Too many software and hardware glitches to put up with.

I lived in Northern AZ for about 15 years, not Phoenix but it was hot except for 3 months of winter. I had to get up early and be done doing outside activities like hiking, gardening or house maintenance chores before 10am during most of the year. You almost never saw kids outside playing in the...

Phoenix is terrible but not for the reasons you list. Nobody except idiots are in danger during a flash flood and monsoon season is one of the nicest times of the year. It can be 100+ out there and a monsoon will come by and now its 70 and the air is clean of dust and all the plants just got...

I live outside of Boise. I've been here less than a year so I can't comment on most of the things you're curious about. I came from Northern AZ. (Sedona) I used to average my electric bill at $200/month and I froze in the winter (I also had a pellet stove that ate $600/year in wood) and...

I get two water bills. City water is about $8.50/month. That's for bathing, cooking, laundry, etc. Then I pay $200 a year for all the water I can waste from the irrigation folks. That's strictly for gardening but it's unmetered and comes in a totally different pipe. It could be less, but they...

Square foot? or linear foot?

I mostly agree. I've installed a few tile countertops. If one cuts those 12x12s into a 3 piece pattern (12x12, 12x6 and 6x6) or uses a porcelain tile, you'll have a prettier and more functional counter and it's not much more work. You'll have more grout lines, but choose a dark grout and keep...

No I didn't. You're going to use non-sanded grout with 1/32" or 1/16" max. grout lines. That's not going to add up to much. 3 grout lines equals 3/16" max. You can really go amateur hour and use 1/8" grout lines, but not in my house.

But it doesn't work very well. Granite tile is 12x12. Two of them is 24" which is an at least an inch short of what it needs to be. Go measure your countertop and I'll bet it's at least 25". So now, you're going to have a 1" strip near the backsplash. The backsplash will lay on top of that so...

If you don't want to do it, call a glass company. I did that in my last house because the doors were huge and me and my weak neighbors were not going to be able to lift them out. It was about $250 for them to drive out and put new wheels on two doors and clean and lube another. Well worth it.

The sign's cut off. It says NO PARKING

I just upgraded from 7 to 10 on a non-touch screen laptop. Speed might be slightly faster, but little things simply don't work. The calendar or mail app accessible from the start button launch and then disappear in a couple of seconds.

Yeah. Fuckin' Mormons. You know how you recognize Mormon kids? They're the ones that call you "sir", and say shit like "please" and "thank you" and hold the door for you. Fuckin' Mormons!

Negs aside, I grew up in Monterey, went to school in San Diego and Santa Cruz all in CA and retired to Sedona, AZ, all places you would expect a good meal as they are all tourist destinations, but the best Italian restaurant I've ever been to for food and atmosphere has been in Meridian, just...

Netflix picks up Longmire Yay!

First movie porn I saw was at a drive-in near Healdsburg, CA. It was a triple feature.

Boise, ID. Winters are not that long, summers are hot but not overly humid. Water everywhere. No traffic. College town. Summer you can fish or kayak minutes away. Winter you can ski. Very little traffic. Low unemployment rate statewide.

When I was working, those fucking Blue Bell jingles would make me run across the room and turn off the radio.

Maybe God will wash them away for you.

National Geographic if you wanted something more ethnic.

Many moons ago, I bombed a nest of yellow jackets on Poo Hill, a place my dog liked. That night, the nest was visited by raccoons. I don't know how many, but they dug a hole 4' across and 2' deep and destroyed the place. There was honeycomb everywhere and not one living wasp.

They're probably not yellow jackets. Those guys built nests in the ground. They're wasps and probably paper wasps. As others have said, get those cans that spray 30', get a good angle and let 'er rip. Shit works good and fast. Coincidently, I discovered a nest in one of my down spouts...

Ya, but if you stick your head out the window and make siren noises, you never have to stop at a light.

I'll show you ugly. Look at what I just bought. But it comes with a toilet, a shower, a fridge, a nuke, a cooktop, a dinette, a murphy bed.

Good to know, thanks.

No Chrome=No Chromecast. That won't work. That's how I watch TV.

Wife installed it on her laptop last night. Now almost all the little games she plays like Windows Solitaire Collection, are screwed up or just hang when she logs into xBox. How do I uninstall? TIA Edit: Nevermind, she found it.

Well, did you get it?

It takes skill to run a smooth metal pan. The black plastic pans with the riffles are easy to use and you can see the gold better against the black.

Don't have to tell you twice to keep your dogs on a leash...or maybe you do.

Not true. I'm a violinist. $100 VSO (violin shaped objects) are frustrating to a beginner because no matter how hard they try, they will always sound like shit. They squawk and buzz because the truth is just having a bridge fitted to a real violin costs more than your paying for that whole thing...
