What I'd like to know is if there is such a thing as a power washer that actually fucking works :evil:
Find one of those guys with the huge water tank on the back of a truck. Those damn things will take the shingles off your roof.

Meanwhile on the North Fork...........

Crawling under the house to turn on the ice maker water must have been a blast. I put mine in the cupboard under the sink. It's in the back, but easier to reach than under the house. Mrs insisted on an ice maker on the last fridge purchase some ten years or more ago. She loved it. And then the nove...

Protests at Universities across the fruited plain

My son spent 1 semester at Ole Miss after having that as a goal since he was in middle school. His best friend since kindergarten went off to State (arch rival) and my son invited him over to meet his friends and see the frat house (Sig Ep) at some open house thing they had. After his friend left. t...

You all sound so organized! I'm more of a "screech to a stop on the side of the road to dig up pretty flowering weeds" type myself. They get tossed into the backyard with varying degrees of care in actually planting them. On the plus side, because they're native they require very little ca...

Interesting. It is kind of clouded because any skin infection was called Leprosy for a long time. For example the Law in Israel in biblical times said that if Leprosy cleared up you had to go to the Priests to be declared clean. Since real leprosy does not just go away, it meant that things that we...

A quick check of stats suggests that the Catholic church is nowhere near as central to American life as it was 50 years ago. At this point I paused, blinked, read it again and burst out laughing. Are you serious? The LDS has been more central to American life than Catholics ever were. In the 50s th...

What evidence is there that she's a student? If she lives off-campus (no dogs in the dorm) why would she have any more rights being on public property than the protesters?

There's so much erroneous bullshit spewed in that post I'm not even going to try to counter the claims individually.

The water in the Gulf at Biloxi, MS was 72 degrees today. Of course, you can walk out forever and never get deeper than your chest, so "swimming" is a relative term. My g'babies were having a blast in their pool today.
