Here's a link to the Taylor swimming pool test kit. Amazon.com: Taylor K-2005 Complete Test Kit - High Range: Sports & Outdoors Been using this kit as long as I've had a pool. Tests chlorine, pH, alkalinity, hardness (calcium), and cyanuric acid (chlorine stablizer) which you won't need...

We've all gotten spoiled by the tricks that companies like Amazon, Newegg, etc. have used to speed up the shipping times. UPS Ground Shipping has a delivery chart based on zones (distance from origin shipping point), and that chart hasn't really changed in decades. Newegg (mostly computer...

It was a birthday present (50th) to myself. Didn't start getting the stuff until almost Christmas, as I was stuck in Houston for a few months due to 9/11 and the implementation of new systems to manage the sales and movement of natural gas to all the powerplants around the country. I was being...

Detailing is a relatively cheap hobby. You just have to find a really expensive hobby, and then you'll appreciate how much you're saving. I spent almost 19 grand on my Astronomy gear in 2001, and I haven't had time to even get the big scope out for years. Little one came out with its Coronado...

We used the Aeron chairs for some of my programmers at U-Haul. Personally, there's only one chair. It comes from Global Industries. These guys have about the best prices. Search results for: 'concorde' All adjustments are push buttons in the arms. Easy to adjust position when you're...

Nice setup Mike. Only one thing I see. The monitor you spend the most time looking at and reading from should be positioned directly in front of you. Reading with your head turned all the time is a sure fire way to become really good friends with a chiropractor. Jim

Hey Meghan: Are the walls in the warehouse not painted? Is that because Mike says "if it has paint, it gets polished? A little paint, and you could put lots of those polishers to work:awesome: Jim

Bill: Only you can decide where your interests actually lie. If it is learning about auto repair, you should find a way to do that. If it is college, you can always do that as well. I still ask people that are middle aged and older "what do you want to be when you grow up?" And, many of...

Perhaps your statement is correct ;) Jim

OK, Captain Kirk. At the time it was reported that he was caught the first time he tried it, but I remember seeing speculation that he had been doing it for a while. Jim

If it's empty, the plaster shell will crack in the heat. Do you have it covered? Jim

I have big trees on both ends of the pool. By late afternoon, no sunburn there either. That's about the hottest the pool ever gets. Our last house didn't have any trees around it, and the summertime water temperature would be in the high 90s. Of course, the way the wind blows, 100% of the...

The pool is a nice cool 88 degrees :surrender: Jim

Only in an evap cooled or air conditioned space. Found a picture of the car that's behind door #3 in my garage (it's stored) Almost made me want to uncover it and put the wheels back on. But, you reminded me of why it should stay right where it's at until October or so. Jim

Started as Twin Pines Mall. After Marty took out one of the trees on the farm it then had a sign reading Lone Pine Mall :bump2: I guess the drug deals John Z did were a solid source of cash flow, at least until he got caught. I'm stuck on trying to remember an airline that was flying in...
