    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Neither of us wanted to cook (that's most days) so my wife and I went to Denny's. We listened to this other customer trying to fight the Denny's app to get a few $$$ of a fucking desert thing, then fight it again at the register because their app doesn't work correctly (fact is their app SUCKS)...

    High school?! In 2005 I was running a construction office doing 4-5 mid-rise condo towers in Myrtle Beach SC. Edit: also in 1988 when high school started I was driving a Chrysler Conquest (rebadged Mitsu Starion) Black with tan leather interior.

    Well that was way easier than I thought. Got seats for tomorrow at 5PM. Bad news, it's so new a 'local discount' is you get to pay full price , then get gigged for parking.

    Had that on my calendar, now just to get my wife to go. Not sure if she is one of the people that got freaked out by the flying monkeys (never made sense to me - young me thought they were hilarious). That theater didn't look packed, maybe I can get a 'local discount'.

    No real idea , I only went there the one time. It was epic though, private plane, walk off the plane into a waiting rental car (on the runway) , left when WE wanted too.

    When Elon built the Nevada Gigafactory he was using every tax incentive he could get. One of the conditions for working on the place was you had to be a Nevada Citizen. Do you know how fucking hard it is to find Skilled electricians that are also Nevada citizens? At the time there was only about...

    That works, the el-cheapo ceiling fan boxes they sell now (should be able to see them in HD/Lowes) attach to the wood and have a plastic pocket to make the electrical joint in. That's pretty much all a pancake box is good for anyhow.

    What is above? If you have room, remove the pancake box completely and put in a new one (ideally deeper) but at the minimum the same type. Also, for some reason I thought you were from the UK, don't they use different colors for their wiring ? This is a sincere question , my in-laws always...

    I won't have a ceiling fan with a light kit like that. I need bare lamp holders so I can put high output lamps in them. When I turn on the light I want to SEE.

    Had something like that happen to teen age me at the Kinston NC drag strip. They allowed street cars to participate sometimes. I was in the pits with my dad & younger brother.

    This! People have no idea what they are attempting to do at SpaceX. Or my MIL goes on about 'they don't need to spend all that money on space, there are problems in America that need fixing first (and irony of ironies, she's a Brit). I keep explaining to her that Elon (or NASA, etc.) doesn't...

    Well due to the weird way this board does replies I saw your post AFTER I guessed FP. When I was house hunting , any house that had a FP panel was an immediate turn around and walk out. Finally trained my realtor how to check so we didn't keep wasting my time. We used to have a construction...

    I bought one of these during a random stop at an Office Max/Depot for $150 or so. My wife decided (after we got home and it would be 2 hours to get back to that store natch) that she wanted one too for work. Go back and try to get another, they are now $300 even when I showed them my receipt...

    I recall reading something about killing mobs in 3-4 locations and that was supposed to make it pop. So that's what I did. Took a few days to get it to show up but when it did I killed it immediately and the quest piece was there on my 1st try. Just getting the damn thing to show was the hard part.

    I grew up in eastern NC and the only school I went to that had AC was the high school. Now we did go to school late as some of the kids worked bringing in tobacco (before it was decided it was poison) but it fucking SUCKED being in the un-air conditioned schools with all that humidity.

    man it's been forever but there was a unicorn or Pegasus , something you had to kill & loot for the mage epic. When I got mine I spent a lot of time in that zone. Had to go anon as when rangers saw a mage of highish level log in they wanted to be paid to track. Fun times!

    The outdoor compressor is beside the one for my main central AC, they ran the lineset & interconnect cables up the wall in a channel with a paintable cap and caulked it all closed. Very clean install. When it's not 114 all the time I may try to paint it outside, or I may not. It looks fine. The...

    I got 2 quotes. One from the company that currently (but not for fucking long) services my main AC system. They wanted $7668 for the same work, same size unit but doesn't state what brand. They also only carried a 3 year warranty. The ones that did the install, have 2 year labor , 10 year parts...
