  1. You can only really beat down black algae with alternating approaches of physical means (metal brush scrub, power wash) and blasting with chlorine. And then dumping out the filter. But it's not worth spending $10-15k on. Remember that the algae actually exists everywhere. Not just the plaster, but the water, pipes, filter, etc. Just make a habit of power washing your plaster once a year. And it's up to you if you want to do that with an empty or full pool. Just make sure to follow it up with a blasting of chlorine, and then filter dump.
  2. Meanwhile, I was like this thru the rest of the Beard thread... Fine, I get it...I won't dig up the dead horse to beat it again either. I'll tell Derka I love him next time we interact...
  3. outside piping, but it's in plastic...geez, what shade tree plumber did that work? No union joints around the valve? At least replace it all with brass or something...
  4. shocking newsflash...ranchers aren't purchasing AR15's for maintaining their hog population. They now treat them like exotics and organize hunts for dudes who have AR15's. Hogs reproduce, dudes buy more AR15's, ranchers sell more hunts. The circle of life is complete.
  5. Cooked 2 briskets for a friend's 50th. Was able to fit them both on the big Joe. I started it way too early in the evening for a 7pm party the next day. I couldn't help it, needed to start drinking around dark and couldn't control myself 🤣. They were done in the morning, just as my hangover woke me up. So I put them in an aluminum pan with some chicken broth & covered with foil, 190 degrees all day. At the party, was told by many folks it was the best brisket they'd ever had.
  6. Was she bridging the line between high school and 18?

    RIP Andy Rourke

    so does that mean Morrisey canceled another Smiths show?
  8. didn't know she was in to running trains
  9. shocking newsflash...humans are racist. Jim will have a sports update at 10...
  10. Shit, he'll have his own job by then to spend $10k on a vintage.
  11. Definite on that one...guess now I'm more worried on "how to protect a guitar when u love in a dorm..."
  12. I could spend 4 grand on a Martin, but would never sleep at night, knowing it's going to get jacked up. So $500-$1000
  13. So I'd like to get my boy a nice acoustic guitar for a HS graduation present, but damn...don't think I could bring myself to trust that a Martin would survive a year in the dorms... He's a good player, so he's worth it. But is there an acceptable middle-ground?
  14. and I bet the number they find will be frightening
  15. the updated version of Illinois nazis....
  16. Seen that in the Circle C hood, along with this
  17. We've apparently got ties to folks from Tennessee, but they came into the country via Galveston? One side was German...no, now its Swiss. And really far back allegedly some Teutonic Crusader or some other bullshit. Then mated up with some Indians from Oklahoma, and some relatives also fought on both North & South. So no, I'm not really special at all. Oh, and I apparently have an older half-brother who owns a Vodka distillery in SC who my crazy aunt found on Ancestry.com. But my dad will likely keel over if he ever finds this out.
  18. our Plant design prof hammered into us the importance of safety. I think it was that Philips blast from 89. Was that the lockout tagout fuck up? Told a story of a young engineer he knew that went running toward the problem when everyone else was running away. They had to identify her with dental records.
