Gets better , got a nearly new water heater from a neighbor , free ( got to love those folks doing major remodels ). 2 water heaters at...

I am anticipating a glut of refurbs incapable of win 11 , and a scarcity of inexpensive refurbs that can run 11. That is the only reason I would consider a new motherboard and cpu.

What day in 2002 did the site go live ?

The scrap metal guys cruse the neighborhood daily. I almost think they have a wifi metal detector. One time I put out a gravity furnace at the curb 2x3x5 , about 400#, I went out 10 minutes later and it was gone.

There are small round vent openings inside the cooking chamber to relieve any steam generated in cooking, and these lead to the fan that also cools the magnetron coil, then out thru the vent slots on the outside of the unit. All it takes is one to get thru this path and lay eggs. Nature is...

Technically feasible to disassemble , clean and sanitize, re assemble , but cost benefit analysis with my time worth $ 50 /hr , vs $140 for a new one. It was crawling with maggots , and certain to be inside the housing too. about a 6 on the scale of gross things I have seen in life.

No Lithium Ion or Lead Acid batteries for my house , I want Sodium Sulphur batteries. Low cost , low charge / discharge loss. And it operates at a temperature that will keep anything within 6 feet warm in the dead of winter. 🙂

Almost new Panasonic Inverter Microwave, out at the curb now. Note to self , don't put a frozen dinner in the microwave, forget to cook it , then leave for a week . Spent half an hour looking for what smelled like a dead rat , then realized the bad news.�� Off to Target to get...

I am sure on this one. The " Aerobat " aerobatic version of the 150 was rare, less than 5 % of production , with unique paint scheme , although this has been repainted. The sister to this one " N5910J " I also flew , has disappeared. N5910J had a tendency for the left door to pop open in...

Some robocaller has used my number for Spoofing. The local direct phone at the Hertz location near me has my number blocked. The employees can, and do block robocall numbers in their phone system. How lucky I am :facepalm:

In So Cal, a couple of dozen HD stores. It is pretty much up to the manager of each. Some of the stores are in order , others are a mess. The sales volume they are doing with covid ( people at home looking for fix up / garden projects to do ) and huge volume in building materials , rising...
