    Yeah, that's gonna hold for all of about zero seconds. This is in the Ford you just did you new bedliner for? I thought so. Didn't you just post recently that your RTA-15TLs sound best aimed inward at your TV?

    Judging from the gnarliness of those nuts - well never mind, I'm not gonna comment on gnarly nuts. That problem should be fixed once Fall arrives and the humidity dissipates.

    Anyone got Aldi nearby? I need people to buy Burman's sauces for me. Out of stock for the season here.
    But not you, Brian. I'm not sure these are safety-sealed, and I don't trust you with the avocado one.

    I hit three or four occasionally. How many of each do you want if I can find them?

    Ooh! Sorry for the late response - long week so far!

    Thank you! As many of the Polynesian ones as you can find, say, up to 12?, and 3ea of the Avocado and Garlic, please, if you can find them? I've not had those two.

    We have some properties in my neighborhood that have a pretty steep driveway incline. I shudder to think whether or not they even can stop or just slide on into the street.

    Homeowner before us did some DIY electrical work... its not the worst but it's definitely dangerous.

    Some wires have electrical tape around them where they were nicked, some are wrapped around plumbing (water lines), there's tons of slack, the breakers are labeled incorrectly, the load wire appears as neutral but isn't labeled as load, etc.

    Think we'll need to get an electrician to inspect this.
