  1. My guess is @ least +150 feet. I think it was discussed up-thread.
  2. Oak Hill / 78736 Windshield repair (SafeLite) cannot be completed due to some rust issues @ the top of the existing windshield area for a '97 Chevy. Need the possibility of traveling Service. SafeLite did the R&R 2 month ago (crack in windshield) & it is leaking. Now S.L. says their Tech from the initial replacement should not have done the work due to the rusted issue & the tech they sent out yesterday for the warranty removed the windshield @ dusk & came back today to complete the job... said "nope - rust". I'm thinking this should be SafeLite's issue to assist in because someone in their chain of actions went outside of their internal or industry common practices back 1 month ago. So now we have a truck with Ø windshield & this means we cannot drive it to a shop for that reason. Thank you, Shag² - you're my only hope.
  3. Map of USA is on the television. HER: Which one is colder? North Dakota or South Dakota? ME (trying to not look incredulous): Ummm... well, they both can probably get very cold, especially in comparison to what we getbhere in Central Texas... & I haven't looked it up to check the distance, however I'm guessing the distance from the lower part of SOUTH Dakota to the top part of NORTH Dakota (where it borders CANADA) is, ummm... probably not much different than maybe the San Marcos to North Dallas kinda distance... But, again. NORTH Dakota v SOUTH Dakota. HER: But which one is up top? ME:: [emoji2357]
  4. Worst of this would be Herschel in that role. & Screwing up the 🍊🤡's name 2× in one event is not surprising.
  5. Would you have *EVER* in your life have thought anyone who was a hair's distance away from The People's House would do this sort of thing in punlic? Remember when Republicans were freaking out because Obama wore a tan suit or they clutched pearls when Clinton answered the "boxers or briefs" question?
  6. I have people up there. & @gsoda3 , you should have asked me.
  7. Phone call, her Dad is in the hospital. Me: Sounds noisy in the background. Who all is there? Her: Well, Mom & Dad, Roxette, Monster, K & D [her (2) sisters], "S" who is a friend of sister K, "H", who is a friend of Roxette... Me: Yeah, I would EXPECT your Dad would be there. Her: You're an ass.
  8. Was this because you turned the Texas game ON or OFF?
  9. Not at all knowing what your house is like, the square footage means Ø for the work that needs to be done. We don't do attic trapping (you can visit Harbor Frieght for various traps & they often have some on sale, even collapsible) however flashing for soffits & cornice returns are common for us. We have also seen issues & repaired chimneys, especially older wooden siding where there is no cricket (see pic of a cricket installation we did, flashing & masonry cut-in + completed with shingle overlay). Another possibility is an aged or chewed through "3-in-1" pipe boot (pic #3) where the rubber gasket is compromised. 3-in-1 = fits a 1½", 2" or 3" soil stack (PVC pipe that vents your bath / sink / toilet / washer drain). Remove the ring as needed to increase the size to fit the pipe in use. I prefer a Lead Jack (final pic) over the 3-in-1 & use those on all of my re-roofs. In conclusion, I would need to see a full estimate + know more about the house to suggest if this quote is on point or ridic.
  10. My wife is ONLY interested in Longhorns football. She consistently wants me to turn the channel once the post game interviews & commentary has concluded.
  11. Additionally, it has for many years now been my assertion that all humans need an artistic expression. Some might daydream or chatvwithbdruends about how they envision building their dream hot rod or muscle car, from the tires / wheel combo to the engine, color, interior, etc. Others may paint, engage in photography, play a musical instrument, research, assemble & wear uniforms for historical re-enactment, build a deck or maybe a tree house "for the kids", etc. The named ___________ -hole is this man's expression, albeit with a bit of simplicity when it started & with a few evolutions as it progressed. Now we have him talking about the minerals, global geolical intersections (what's on the exact opposite side of the Earth?), gasses, structural engineering, bunker provisions & missile siloing¹... the topics are expansive. It is definitely a Man's expression on display for us to discuss & ivam 100% certain all whobare following thisbthread would like to visit & "Get to to the bottom of this (hole)." You WANT to touch his hole. Also, the rock / sand screeding is very ASMR quality. ¹If we haven't, we should.
  12. This hole needs a name. I am leading off with: ■ "CleverHole". ■ "Shag²Hole" ■ Asshole We have 7 days, midnight of Saturday 02 Nov 24 to come up with something that is 51% appropriate for the hole & 49% relevant to this BBS. Do work.
  13. Last ~1 minute of the Vandy game. Vandy gets that TD & the extra point goes through the goal posts. SCENE: I commented "interesting view for the PAT; I guess they have a camera on the center / top of the net as I don't think I have ever seen that view before." Move forward a moment to the 'Dores lining up for their onside attempt. Her: Why are they (Vanderbilt) lined up like that? Are they trying to get that "2 point" thing after the touchdown?" Me: "Ummm... wat?" Her: "Don't talk to me like it was a stupid question. What are they doing? I haven't ever seen that before." Me: You can NOT be serious here. Her: "You're such an ass."
  14. @Chad Fuck What is the theme for your Wood Badge course? Ours was "Diversity" & it went OK for a bit; I tried to get some connection with the local Hispanic kids however I came to find out that if any with "foreign exchange / originated S of the border" parents, they typically view Scouting as "for the rich" & the most these parents do with / for their kids regarding community activities is put them in soccer. I was able to get one recruit - he was a Sophomore @ the time & stuck with the Troop for 1 full year, got to 1st Class, but never returned for what would have been his Junior year. I even tried (through translated conversation with his Mom) to get him on scholarship to our Summer camp trip to Colorado (see voluminous pics prior) however he simply faded away, I have no idea if there was any input or participation from a father figure. Anyhow, what's your theme?
  15. What does this mean (to you, not @CleverNickname). I'm certain there are plenty of Shaggers who hope this doesn't ever end & is even passed down to generations of Mini-Clevers.
  16. Ummm... because boat? I neglected to mention he also has a 21' Donzi. Says he is thinking Livingston; 42 footer is apparently going to Pensacola & will be retained there.
  17. He grew up 8n Fort Lauderdale & has absolutely ZERO desire to go back down there.
