  1. How hard is your water? I'm connected to a private water company and I've about given up trying to keep away the calcification along the water line along the tile
  2. Get professional bait stations and there is a bait that is non-toxic to pets even if they decide to eat a dead mouse. I have a neighbor that has about 10 acres in wildlife exemption so the bait stations closest to the fence line will be cleaned out in a matter of a week or two. I have 7 others spread around the perimeter of the house and I think I've only had 2 die inside the house so far. No idea how many have been kilt so far
  3. And that, like Helobious, he has since done some research and can't believe that he made it through college without being taught that info
  4. Yes, but if you have a hot tub, think how much you are saving on contraception
  5. The TCU coach can recruit, but his in game adjustments in the Texas game were trash. Texas was pressing the inbounds and he would run exactly zero plays to get a player open for a pass...no picks and, most of the time, he had only 1, maybe 2 players as available options. I would think after the second or third 5 second call that you would make some adjustments, but nothing.
  6. Could have been more that inning. Not sure why no courtesy runner for Reese or why Reese didn't slide into second
  7. Not seeing anything on the news but heard from friends of friends, so take it for what it's worth
  8. I bet the ending of work from home is playing a factor. People are going to have to move back closer to the office. It might not be as prominent yet as it will become
  9. It could also be argued that he was/is a petty, petty little vindictive person
  10. That install is completely opposite of mine. Mine is at the meter and the main breaker panel. It's almost modern art looking. Does the gas line come up the back leg?

    Due date of February 16th for our first. Just waiting to rip down 290 to Houston.
  12. I lose the Android Auto connection and the screen goes back to a non-connected look. So, maybe I don't totally lose connection, but you don't see any connection icons for a few seconds. Phone calls will also drop. After a couple of seconds, it all comes back.
  13. Make sure you aren't losing cell connection. My truck will do the same along Mopac north of Parmer Lane. There are dead spots galore.
  14. We were there in early April last year and caught horrible weather. Just about all of the beaches were closed for 4 days due to the winds and currents. We did the Na Pali coast boat tour and it was really rough so no snorkeling or going into the caves. Hanalei beach near the pier was open but they had a shark sighting. You probably won't have the bad luck we did, but bear in mind it's that time of year. The week after we left they had 10-12" of rain and had flooding issues for a week.
  15. You have to account for the cost of the land, which is by far, the highest component to real estate in California. I'd bet over 80-85% of the homes can be rebuilt for less than $3 million assuming they can get by government restrictions
  16. I was reading (on the internet, so it has to be right) that many of the homes burned not from embers on the roof, but from embers being drawn into the attic through the airflow vents. Once inside, there isn't much that could be done. Does that sound right? In looking at pictures of houses on fire, many seem to have fire resistant roofs like Spanish tile or composition shingles. I know that fire resistant does not equal fire proof.
  17. Did you hear that through the wire?

    Getting old sucks

    Maybe an Alexa type device that he can yell at if there is a problem and his phone is not near him. It saved my aunt when she fell and broke her leg.
  19. Which reel mower are you running? I started with a California Trimmer but moved up to a Revolution 26. I have a larger yard and it's not quite level enough to go shorter than about 3/4".
  20. Shithead child deterrents
  21. I don't have Jellyfish, I have Gemstone. I had the same issue with light colors being dimmer and not quite right. It was due to a one of the transformers being faulty. Once they replaced that, the colors were correct and the lights were brighter. I don't know that I would have noticed it as much, but we have 2 transformers because of line length and there was a difference between one side of the house and the other.
  22. I know my Internet isn't the best, but does the picture such for anyone else?
  23. I understand that. Just curious how you decide when to do that and how long you run it...after a couple of flickers, after 30 minutes of it? How do you know when the situation has resolved? I live in the country so I don't really have neighbors to judge the status of things
  24. Generator won't help with that. It's on about a 7 second delay before it starts and about 10 seconds before it starts delivering power. The blips are too fast and would be damaging to the generator to start and stop so much
  25. Always loved him in this role
