  1. Pipe size, partially blocked line, valve not fully open, ....
  2. Ha!
  3. + 1 on the roof leaks. They're horrendously expensive to repair.
  4. Cool.
  5.     Changing an email address can be rather a PITA.  I do recommend you change it to something 'universal' like gmail.  Gmail is easy and my primary email account.  You should be able to set up your Comcast account to auto-forward to the new address.  You can send out an email from the old account to everyone to inform them of your new email account. You should also be able to export your contacts from one account to another.  All the data may not go and it will likely require some effort to make sure everything is right. 
  6.     Radar signature... quite large.  If you stay low, that would help but its much more dangerous.  They're also very loud.  Remember how quiet it was on 9/11?  People would hear it for miles around.
  7. My assumption is yes, you'd need a license in both cases.  A small game license in the case of the birds and a large game license for the hogs. 
  8.     :rofl:   
  9.     You forget this is TN.  The left lane isn't for passing, it's for riding along next to the car in the right lane.   Some of these people should take a European vacation.  They'll get an idea of what the left lane is for real quick. 
  10. We've had ATT DSL for about 5 years.  It's not super fast, but I don't game or anything that requires a lot of bandwidth so it works fine for me.  Pretty cheap too.  My only cable option is Charter, and I'll be damned if that company gets another dime of my money. 
  11.     Not really, it's all pretty simple stuff.  Don't know if walmart will have the garage door insulation kits but they should have weather stripping and such.  Easiest way I know of to find air leaks is to light an incense stick and move it around door/window edges while the HVAC system is running.  If there's a leak, the smoke will tell you.  Window tinting requires a lot of patience and a steady hand.  If you've never done it before, it may take a couple tries to make it look good.          This too.  I have a couple windows in desperate need of re-caulking.  Sadly it's been on my list for a couple years.  I hate caulking.  Actually I hate digging out the old caulk more than I hate applying new caulk.  :yuck:
  12. Insulation kit for garage doors or windows.    Weather stripping/seal kit for exterior doors.    Window tinting for any south-west facing windows.    Attic vents.    Thermostatic attic fan.    Water heater insulation blanket.    Hot water pipe insulation.    Vapor barrier for the crawl space.    Ceiling fans.   CF or LED bulbs   Motion sensors and/or timers and/or photocells on lights   ... my new HVAC unit is saving me about $40/mo compared to the old one, but the initial cost is slightly higher than $100... ;)
  13. While it's all about shot placement, I'd agree with the 100 yds or less.  From my (very limited) experience, it's pretty unlikely you'll get a clear shot much over 50 yds in the woods.  Long shots only come if you're hunting someone's corn field. 
  14.   Cheesecloth.  I've heard that before.  Perhaps even here, perhaps even from you.  One of these days I'll remember to get some and try it.
  15. A nickname that was bestowed upon me by some former coworkers. 
  16.     Yep.  I usually buy 3 - 4 when I find them on sale and throw them in the freezer.  I've got 1 or 2 left from the last sale.   Did you do anything special to keep the ribs from drying out?  I've only tried ribs once and the results weren't real good.  Edible, but kinda dry. 
  17. The way I read the reg's, if you don't live on the land, you must have a license.  Just get one, they're not that expensive. 
  18. Sounds yummy.  I need to get my smoker fired up again.  I think all that's left from the last round is half a pork loin. 
  19.     All the crown does is protect the bore.  It sticks out so when (not if, when) you whack the muzzle on something, you ding the crown and not the bore itself.  A nick in the crown is fairly easily fixed.  A nick in the bore, not so much.    That's a really nice rifle and I'm sure the idea of damaging it turns your stomach (as it would mine), but consider the conditions under which its intended to function. No need to panic. 
  20. Nice.
  21. As others have said, dogs are pack animals.  If you intend for it to be outside all the time and not interact with it a lot, get 2 dogs.  If a dog doesn't have a pack, it'll go find one. 
  22. 6BR is a good one.  A friend has a rifle in 6BR that put three bullets into 1 hole at 200 yds.  I think they called it a 1/4" group.  Ammo isn't cheap.   I'd look at a high speed .22.   .223, .22-250, .204 Ruger, etc. 
  23. This has been around for a number of years.  Had a panic moment when my oldest was a toddler... bottle in the yard and him wandering over to pick it up.  Me doing that slow motion running and yelling "NOOOO!!!!" .  Thankfully I beat him to it and it just had some water in it. 
  24. Aluminum cleaning rod vs. hardened steel barrel?  I wouldn't worry about it.  You're probably just seeing some discoloration where the Al rubbed off on the steel.  You said it yourself, the barrel removed metal from the rod, not vice versa.
