I'm starting to think my landlord isn't a very good one. I've been trying to call her since yesterday, and they haven't been answering the phone, and somehow, in 2017, they don't have a way to leave them messages. It's like, the AC guy was out here a week and a half ago to confirm what I told them, that the unit was garbage, and needs to be replaced. Never heard back after that.

So I know my weather station reads a few degrees high because it's in direct sunlight and the small contained units just don't manage the sunlight properly, but... My home weather station high temperature today was 126. It is currently 123 and I just had a brief power outage. I am currently extremely thankful that the power only stayed out for about 15 seconds... an extended outage right now would... suck. A lot.

Cars was amazing for our first (somewhere in the 3/early 4 yo. stage) when we showed it to him (and he sat through like 30 mins at a stretch). Cars 2 was beyond unsuitable for him (from our perspective), even though he loved maters tall tales. The tonal shift between the two movies was amazing. I still need to watch 2 again...but I recall not liking it nearly as much, even with the goofy humor.

Can you withhold rent in FL for poo poo like that? Some states consider hvac so vital that your landlord needs to have it fixed in 24 hours.

Start getting signed up for all the free subscriptions of Motortrend, Hotrod, etc. you can now, so that when the time comes you will have a limitless supply of 20% off coupons and FREE FLASHLIGHTS like I do. Keeping coupons in both my cars helps to justify those impulse purchases like four hundred metric O-rings or more socket extensions. Truthfully, it is super incredibly useful for stuff you may only use once - case in point I needed to get the last of some really old fuel out of a truck before smog the other day: $~3.50 later and I had a siphon hose with a rubber ball hand-pump that worked perfectly. A+++ would shop at HF again.

Rhyno posted:Well we're gonna see if this PT power steering issue can be easily fixed (patched with JB weld lol) on Saturday and then decide if I keep driving it or put it up for sale. It really is in great shape, year old tires, 18 month old shock and the heat and AC both work so I figure I can get at least a grand out of it. Then I'll buy my friends that gave it to me lunch and feel cool with it. Not sure how many people it takes to tell you "it won't loving work" but hey, here's another.  The pressure in those hoses is way too high for that poo poo. You either replace it or refill.

The one that's 20 minutes long and talks about how it's the distilled essence of middle-class eccentricities and nostalgia trickling down in a hand-me-down fashion to those who have to save up for months to think about affording simple maintenance like an oil change. And then he goes and blows that idea away by just loving rocking that thing. Shine on you crazy AI diamond.

FAT32 SHAMER posted:I finished painting + hanging the cabinets in the laundry room  Cabinets aren't bad and the color works but the artificially aged is kind of meh. With the houses we've been looking at I have a feeling it's time to branch out from just fixing cars to basic woodworking and house poo poo. Upside is new tools!Might have missed the house we likes with the big detached garage but there will be others. I'm kind of bummed but the location of that one was just poo poo, hopefully the next ones will be more ideal.
