  1. The Blue Star model we bought comes in either NG or LP. I assume the difference is just the burner orifice. My understanding is that you can drill out the orifice on an LP grill to get the equivalent BTUs out of NG. I haven't actually tried it though. Getting off topic I guess.
  2. I'll remember this when I'm sweating my ass off outside in late October.
  3. Basically every appliance place pushed induction so I'm sure people do like them. We would have been fine with it, but there's just something about gas that isn't replaceable. Maybe see if you can find one to cook on though and decide for yourself.
  4. We've always liked gas. Feel like you have better control over the heat plus no need to be careful banging around cast iron or other pans. The induction was there when we bought the house so it was the first time we've used one. It's fine. Far superior to regular electric tops, but still seems to cook weird. Maybe there's just an extended learning curve. It also makes a buzzing noise which is apparently normal? It boils water amazingly fast...almost impossibly fast. Also probably safer around kids. Overall it was nice, but just not for us. I think it's like a $4K unit.
  5. In the middle of a renovation right now and we went with a Blue Star 36" gas range and 30" electric wall oven. Getting a 42" Vent-a-Hood insert over the range. Downdrafts suck in my experience. Time will tell on reliability, but really looking forward to this setup. We have a Miele induction cooktop for sale if anyone wants it.
  6. Not looking forward to this shit. We moved from Ft. Bend to Harris county so I'm pretty sure we have to go in person. Both cars are expired so I can't put it off much longer.
  7. You're probably one of those who thinks gas should be $1.80.
  8. A lot. It has cooled down some in Houston and we've had some rain and overcast which has helped quite a bit. Seemed like I was putting water in every few days before. Also I think our overflow drain was installed too low so there's not much room for error between too full and air sucking into the skimmer.
  9. Or maybe we could be rational adults, recognize there are problems that need to be addressed, and hold those responsible for addressing those problems accountable? Nah, fuck that let's play teams so nothing gets done.
  10. Yeah well you just don't understand fashion!
  11. Still pisses me off there are two threads.
  12. Had to remove the wheel and pull out the wheel liner to do it on one of my cars.
  13. E39 M5 is my favorite BMW ever made. A timeless design imo.
  14. You must not be following along. We're not considered P5 anymore. Bad timing for you all.
  15. A handful of posters in this thread have been dickheads through this whole thing. I've made a few smartass comments directed at them. Not sure what else you're referring to. I guess that's venom? Pretty tame for this board.
  16. Who the fuck would go on an OU or Aggy board? I don't think I've ever blamed Texas for any of this. Or maybe I did at some point, but that's not really my opinion today. All of it was inevitable and I've already said it's bad for college football, but maybe my opinion would be different if we were included. I've slowly lost interest over the years and this will likely accelerate that. I'll just spend my time on something else.
  17. I remember those games well. I was there for a few of them. We were shitty and Texas was really good. Ha, yeah I'm sure that's the reason.
  18. What are you all going to do once you can't play the victim card anymore?
  19. That picture was taken somewhere in the 2004-2006 timeframe if I had to guess.
  20. What happened in 2015? Haven't ever heard that mentioned on this board.
  21. It was.
  22. All that shitty beer takes me back to my college days.
  23. Amazing that you actually believe that.
  24. My Hayward does as well. It's priming the pump and you can set how long it does it each time.
