I’m from TX so I’ve got a soft spot for REK but he’s a great riposte to Stanford’s word neuter thing.Quote:

So the toilet and two sinks of the apartment share a common drain, which froze up. I have no clue what size of drain pipe he used. I smell an expensive upgrade coming this summer.Quote:

Christmas basketball
I got to go see my old high school in a Christmas tournament. They are the #1 ranked 2A team in the state. Made the Final 4 last year and lost by 8 to the state champion. Returned all 5 starters. Made the finals of the Christmas tournament, beating 2 good 4A teams. Played the # 4 ranked 4A team in the finals and it was an absolute slugfest. Tied with 1:20 to go and lost by 5. And the kids were PISSED. I LOVE that. Christmas basketball is such a beautiful thing.
So now my power goes out...
Stay warm!Quote:

Good morning!
Sounds miserable. Do you use a hair dryer/heat gun on the inside working end of the deadbolt? Or is it more complicated?Quote:

Home Alone taught me an electric charcoal starter does the trick. They won’t lie right? 😀Quote:
