    I’ve been in bed for 30 minutes and noticed it doesn’t feel like the room is cooling down.  I go to the thermostat and yep, set to heat instead of cool. 

    I have legitimately told my daughter probably 30x to NOT turn the AC fan to "ON" - don't EVER touch that button / setting & instead, the one to be concerned about is the "Auto / On" setting.

    I 100% know it's not the boy & my wife only concerns herself with the temperature.

    To try and answer the question about symptoms I had a really bad migraine that lasted a few days about a month before I never had a migraine previously
    then the Sunday prior to having the attack Monday I had a small stroke right arm dizeness quickly recovered
    Monday I was calling around to make arrangements to get looked at but was doing so without insurance then Monday mid-afternoon it hit

    Another symptom is lack of punctuation obviously.

    Sky Diamonds. These motherfuckers. 

    Seriously; they run videos as "motivational speakers" while running powerboats up & down lakes or the intracoastal, floating in a swimming pool with a tiny umbrella drink, etc.  I personally don't like hail as it brings a lot of storm chasers to the area & some of them like it here well enough to stick around thereby bringing competition.  High wind tends to damage far fewer houses in overall volume & it isn't as easily argued vs. "is that damaging hail or is it simply SOME hail?  Is it widespread across this roof?".

    You should see the stuff from my roofing sales groups on FB.

    There is an actual group & sales training program called "Sky Diamonds".  I try to work more as a craftsman vs. production #'s where a lot of these guys just hard sell all of their prospects.

    There is a decent chance for hail and maybe a tornado over a good part of Central Texas tomorrow.

    ..Central Texas...


    Given favorable shear expected to evolve with time (southerly to
    south-southeasterly low-level winds veering/increasing to 50-plus kt
    from the northwest at mid levels), storms should quickly
    organize/acquire rotation. As such -- and aided by the increasingly
    unstable environment -- very large hail will be possible with the
    initial supercellular storm development, along with risk for locally
    damaging winds and a couple of tornadoes.

    I feel like an invisible storm passed over. Lost power a couple times this afternoon. There was stuff on the radar and distant thunder, but it was still mostly sunny. Very weird.

    Drunks running into power poles.

    I don't understand these fence table/bars.  You like your neighbors enough to have a drink  with them but not enough to actually invite them over to sit on the patio under some shade? WTF?

    What, you think they should actually have a gate or something?  Why do that when you can Tim Toolman Taylor it up in this bitch?


  9. You could have a small section of fence pivot in the middle so that it ends up on both sides of the property and is open under it. Cut that section loose and use some pipe with clamps for it to rotate on. Or get fancy and use an actual shaft with bearing on either end.

  10. anything over 4 ft, you must be tied off with a 6 ft lanyard in most petrochem facilities. safety first !!!!
     
    OSHA says the same thing about ladders / roofing.
    My ? is how do you get up top to put the ring on the ridge cap if you aren't already tied off to the ridge cap?
