    This is the drill set you want. It may seem like too much to get both of these, but I did it, and I'm so glad I did. http://www.mcfeelys.com/product/DW-D...130128164235:s Really good battery life, excellent control, very comfortable in the hand. If you're just getting started...

    I'd like to meet the people who did that to your basement, and slap them. hard. often. You could probably cut through it all with an angle grinder with the right blade. Likely wouldn't take much time, either.

    Try banging the whole ceiling with a large hammer. Get the plaster busted up into bits, and then pulling the chicken wire should do the trick.

    Making Oxtail stew for dinner tonight. It has to cook for four or five hours to be right. Here are the ingredients I'm using. I'm just eyeballing everything. oxtail (probably about 3 pounds) carrot, roughly chopped turnip, roughly chopped celery, roughly chopped onion, roughly...

    You're really quite a douchenozzle, aren't you? To the OP - I can tell you with certainty that IMMEDIATELY following sex is not a good time for constructive criticism. $0.02

    I know what you mean. However, I don't much care what the motorcycle looks like. I care a lot more what the bike rides like. The way you sit on a BMW is incredibly comfortable for me, and that's important. It's hard for me to find a comfortable bike, as I'm pretty tall. These are built for...

    Yup. I said the same in the above post. Most basement walls do need insulation, though the average only need it starting about 2 feet off the floor. Insulating to 2 inches above the floor doesn't add much cost, it prevents the floor-water issue, gives everyone peace of mind, and makes for a...

    Sounds to me like you have a pretty good clue about basements, too. I would say that you're bang on about the whole system getting inundated with water. If the entire perimeter of the basement had the same height of wetness, that's not nature. That's your water exit system being overloaded...

    Great job on the bathroom, nice choices! I do. It's really time consuming to do yourself correctly, but it isn't rocket science. If you have time, and the ability/willingness to dig, you can do it. Dig down to near the bottom of your foundation, all the way around. Doesn't have to be much...

    Thanks for clearing that up for me. I didn't have a good understanding of that. yeah, they're pretty much pooched. I knew they had peaked, but I didn't think they'd be total shit for a while longer yet. They're not going to be good again for a decade. St. Louis, on the other hand, is a...

    This isn't my bike, but it's identical, except that my saddle bags are black, and I have a custom seat with a low back rest for the driver. BMW 1100rt. Great bike. I ride it every day, even in the winter, so long as there isn't ice on the road. Cold doesn't bother me - the fairings...

    It's looking like Te'o was actually telling the truth. The guy can't be that bright. The person responsible for this has, apparently, done this to other football players, too.

    Why hide the screenshots and rickshaw forums?

    Why do the janitors continue to respond? The issue is clear, you've presented it well, and the "I want it the way I like it" type of people are just going to continue to be bitches, and cry over what they don't like. Close the thread, already.

    Yeah, the University came out pretty strong on Manti's side here, but in such a way that they can dump him and cover later. It'll go something like this: "I truly believed him to be the most trusting guy, and that made me feel like he was the most trustworthy guy. He acted as a paragon of...
