It was a real bitch to get the positive terminal off the corrosion was really drat bad. Getting terminal grease today and looks like I'll have to be putting more on every 6 months or whatever.

Clean up the battery terminals on my cars battery nice. Reattach everything. Put some terminal protector crap on. Should be good right? HA HA!

No.

Hmm ok everything seems to have power. Battery ~should~ be ok. Lets try a few things. Owners manual says to try starting with both the brake and accelerator fully pressed down. Nope. Ok recheck the battery is connected right. Yep. Ok what else.

Read some mustang forums. One post says 'make sure its not in anti-theft mode'.

gently caress.

Try unlocking the doors with both my key fobs.

Starts.

Corrosion was the initial problem but losing full power must have made it go a little crazy.

Been on 2 cruises. One to Alaska on Princess. It owned. Being on on the top deck watching a movie while drinking a beer and surrounded by ancient loving glaciers was cool as poo poo. Service was top notch. My gf put in a comment card asking if they could add more asian food for future trips. Hours later the head chef had us a reserved table in one of the dining areas for the rest of the trip and cooked her some awesome drat food.

One to Bahamas on Carnival. It was kinda bad. They had us board before the rooms were ready so everyone was sitting around in hallways and lounge areas for hours carrying around their luggage. This is after already sitting around for hours outside the ship in hot and humid Florida with only like 3-4 vending machines to get anything from. Service was so-so after that. Nothing like what we had on Princess. The ports we went into all sucked dick, other than Nassau. One of the islands we went to was some loving shipping container hold over place and another was an island leased by Carnival so it only had Carnival people on it with drat little to do other than sit on the beach and drink.

I am still waiting for my recall repair for the airbag. Last I heard it was 3rd quarter 2016 for it.

Oh and my battery ended up getting replaced. After doing all the cleaning and getting it working again, for the past week its been very hard to start. Took it in and warranty replaced it. Wonder if this battery will get huge corrosion issues as well.

I'm almost a homeowner and man it feels weird. I posted before about the sewer offset issue I found - the initial estimate for the repair was $1800, but when the contractor went back to see exactly where the issue was and saw that it was under the sidewalk they increased it to $5000. The seller's covering everything before closing and I absolutely would've walked if they hadn't agreed to that.

Get the sewer scope. $125 up front can save you a lot of money.

Dude. Find another house. You're jumping into an already hosed rabbit hole.

That scene makes me wonder how a single car got surrounded by a mob. Did that guy take a turn down a road that was clogged with dissidents already? Did the mob coalesce in a hurry and surround the car?

Never been in one, but they seem like something that can be both readily avoided and suddenly form without warning. In either case, don't stand in front of a car that is driving on the road.

Berkeley has a lot of really lovely streets and oneways. The area around the campus is a giant mess that is hard to get around even on a good day.

gently caress sake. Just had a teenage girl across from me at the gas station drive off with the hose still in her car. Thank gently caress they have fast breakaways now with an auto shutoff. She even backed up after it happened and looked at her car then just drove the gently caress off without saying anything. I let the attendant know and they have cameras so shes going to be screwed.

My daughter nearly burned down my apt complex when she was like 4. She woke up before me and decided she was hungry and put some hot pockets in the microwave. The entire thing. Wrapper and all. No idea how long she set it for but she ran into the bedroom crying to wake me up and the entire livingroom & kitchen was thick black smoke. Smoke alarm did not go off. Fortunately only the microwave was a loss and kept the small fire contained within it. Also fortunate I had a big rear end box fan and could evacuate the smoke in a few minutes.
