  1. Classy traveler behavior us road warriors see on daily basis...
  2. Sometimes I'll use a large sponge (a real sponge, not the imitation crap) and a bucket of water. Get the sponge damp and use it to knock down the mud before I paint, rinsing the sponge as needed. I almost always use this approach when patching small picture nail holes and other small/medium areas.
  3. Are you saying it's cement block from floor to ceiling on 3 sides? There's no framing at all?
  4. ^^American Futbol is quickly turning into it's European counterpart. I'm really starting to hate the American version.
  5. Get a can of this stuff. Just be careful when spraying it as it will really expand (a little bit goes a long way). You might want to spray some on a piece of cardboard to see how little you actually need to spray to fill a gap/hole. Also, wear disposable gloves. The stuff is impossible to get off your skin.

  6. A coach has to have leader(s) in the locker room. Not to take anything away from Randy, but having Pierce & the Professor in the locker room has got to be helping Randy get his message through to the rest of the team. And, having guys with their experience probably has made it easier for Randy to listen to what they have to say (or suggestions from other players). The Skins are so devoid of locker room leadership no coach will succeed. Fletcher was kind of that guy the past several years, but there was very little talent around him. Now there's a severe lack of both. It's been such a mess for so long Gruden may suffer the same fate as his predecessors, sooner rather than later.
  7. ...maybe the DC NFL football team will read this.
  8. And the best part about this season? UVA sucks & VTech sucks. VTech fans are close to slitting their wrists after losing to Wake today...
  9. Is this the Twilight Zone? Did I just see the Terps beat Michigan in Ann Arbor? In football? Wow! I never expected to see this in my lifetime. Proud of this team. Wow!
  10. So, apparently Bill Cosby setup a site to allow peeps to use his image to make memes. Huge PR disaster ensued. This is one of the memes somebody created. If you listen to the Hannibal Buress video at the link it's NSFW... http://nypost.com/2014/11/10/bill-cosby-twitter-hasthag-meme-immediately-backfired/ arrgggg....why can't I post larger images???
  11. Wait...I don't have a clue how Obamacare drove my specific health costs this year? What is that supposed to mean? I never said it drove my costs up or down. I stated my plan for the coming year with my employer has gone down and my coverage remains the same. Period. So, your renewal quotes have gone up every year for the past 10 years and this year is different how?
  12. Mine is private employer insurance with Anthem. Dental is with Delta. Yes, employee average age I'm sure is a factor. But when has it not been? Edit: I will also add where you live is a contributing factor as well. I'm going to also guess the type of business the employer is in will impact the rates. I really don't keep track of my healthcare insurance costs, but I'm going to guess my costs have ridden the tide of healthcare costs over my past 35 years of employment. When haven't they gone up? Or down? New drugs on the formulary? No? Pay full price. And now I see the pharmas are looking to increase the price of generics. Think that will increase the deductibles in the future for generic drugs?
  13. No changes to my benefits or network that I know of. Quote from our HR department: "The medical PPO premiums have decreased an average of 14%, the medical HDHP premiums by 6% and the dental premiums by 26%" HDHP is the High Deductible Health Plan (I'm sure you knew that).
  14. My 2015 health insurance went down 4%. The deductible remains at $500 total for me & my wife. Oh, and I'm not subsidized. The Invisible Man
  15. He only had 1 of those chins before he got that OG Pasta Card...
  16. Congrats on the new home. Day 2: What do you mean "they don't reset properly"? I thought I had a problem with a GFI outlet resetting and found out from a friend that these are typically controlled by a couple of "master gfi" outlets elsewhere in the house (at least I think that's what they call them). In effect, the GFI in our garage needed to be reset in order to correctly reset the ones near the bathroom sinks. I'm not an electrician so maybe someone on here who is can explain this better. Day 17: Not sure this won't work, but my advice is to cut it out & replace it with new piece of copper pipe. Find a friend who can teach you how to properly sweat a joint. Pretty easy fix & cheap to do. Remember: DIY projects are mostly about 2 things: Getting new toys (tools) & learning how to fix a similar issue in the future
  17. Can you imagine the hate BSPN would be spewing today if that was Dan Snyder? Since I refuse to watch that channel, I'm going to guess those asshats are silent on that today because it was Jerrah. Oh, yeah, **** the Cowpies & Tony Romo
  18. ^^ So I don't get it. WTF am I doing wrong when trying to post a pic/video?
  19. Arrrgggg....I still can't figure out how to post videos/gifs. Every time I try it says the image is too big. Here's the video of 2 Philthy players running into each other on an Arizona interception...Lol'd when I saw it real time http://nextimpulsesports.com/2014/10/26/eagles-drop-like-flies-antonio-cromarties-interception-return/
  20. Agreed. The fact the incident occurred closer to the Bulls bench means, yes, they didn't cross the half-court line. But the 2 Bulls in warmups in the middle of the last picture are clearly involved in the action. The guy on the left is actually restraining somebody. Why does it matter he's not over half-court line? He left the bench to get involved & is clearly involved. Stupid call but the Wiz players should know not to leave the bench.
  21. I didn't realize they were suspended, either. I saw this on twitter. Seems only the 4 Wiz players are suspended & not the Chi players who also left the bench: Nithin Kuchibhotla ‏@nkuchibhotla Oct 8 @BulletsForever what about those Bulls players conspicuously in warm ups and on the court? https://twitter.com/BulletsForever/status/519948202825748481/photo/1
  22. http://www.foxnews.com/leisure/2014/10/13/scientists-create-lithium-ion-battery-with-super-speed-charging-and-longer-life/?intcmp=features Researchers at Nanyang Technology University recently created a new kind of battery that charges super fast and has a shelf life of 20 years. The ultra-fast batteries can charge 70 percent in only two minutes and don’t need to be replaced every few years. The batteries will work for more than 20 years, a timeframe that’s nearly 10 times longer than the typical lithium-ion battery. The new battery has a 10,000-cycle life, which Chen says could save those with electric cars a lot of money in replacement batteries, which sometimes cost $5,000. Additionally, the fast charging capabilities would make it easier to charge electric cars on the go, instead of having to juice the batteries up every night. The researchers have already licensed the technology to a company and expect to see the new batteries on the market in approximately two years
  23. From the Washington Nationals 2014 thread: Sorry, Slateman, but this made me spit out my coffee this morning...
