  1. If you're running low on hot water during showers a simple/inexpensive solution could be to replace the shower head with a lower flow model. You can check and see how many gallons per minute you use with a stopwatch and 5 gallon bucket. Cutting back on the gallons per minute will definitely increase your hot water time in the shower.

    That's heresey!!! Then you end up with this!!

  2. I finally had Fat Tire on tap last night and loved it. It was chili-cheese dogs and beer at the Vienna Inn. I had tried fat Tire in the bottle and it was ok, but on tap it's great!

  3. Hi Everyone! I've enjoyed looking through each of your collections and figured I'd introduce myself. I'm a lifelong Skins fan. I've been collecting for close to five years now. I'll try to post more of my items in time; however I wanted to share my first pickup of 2013. Here is a 1987 Charles Mann road jersey with a ton of use and team repairs. The jersey has been photo matched. I'm incredibly excited with the purchase and owe a great deal of gratitude to the seller. Cheers!

    That's one of the coolest gamers I've seen, welcome!! Where did you run accross that at???

  4. And honestly, I don't know, there wasn't a breakdown on the estimate. I know my wife would prefer the rollout kind because she wants as few seams as possible. I'll definitely be asking for specifics. This is part of a larger project that includes painting and installing a new vanity and medicine cabinet in the bathroom, but we needed to outsource this part of the job due to time constraints.

    The place we used is a little flooring shop in Mapledale Plaze in Dale City. It's been 4 years and not sure how they weathered the recession, but worth getting an estimate from them. They did a really good job on our floor.

  5. Does this seem reasonable, including materials and labor?

    It really depends on the material cost. Could be in line could be high. We had hardwood, not laminate installed in our kitchen family room, which is one large area for about 4500 4 years ago. Sounds a little high for vinyl, ok for tile or wood depending on the quality of the tile or wood.

  6. I love the B3 lot....Its never too crowded and it never takes long to get out...I think its ideal for anyone in section 118 to 104 and the 200 level. Im in section 111 and I got a 3 min. walk to the stadium and after the game im in my car driving before most ppl even get to theirs. I dont know how you would be if your in the 300 level or the upper deck because walking down the ramps takes time and by then most ppl are out already so traffic might be bad.

    I'd heard good things about the B3 lot, that might change with the influx of new people. You'll know after the home opener.

  7. Just got a set of terrace seats my friend bought under one of my accounts. They came with no notification. My regular tickets I got the email on and the tracking number. So heads up as Osaka said some are coming with no warning.

  8. I would assume they planned on having a hard time selling the UL SRO tickets. After all they couldn't sell the seats. The point was to keep the skins from having to pay out for unused seats to avoid a blackout. The SRO seats have accomplished this, sold or not as they are not counted as regular general admission seats by the league.

  9. I'm still worried that I'll have problems getting two more seats next year. I currently have two Clubs and two in the lowers. I want to drop the Clubs (this is the last year of my contract) and add two more in the lowers to my account so I have 4 together. I'm not sure how to best go about working that out and I'm afraid I'll be stuck with only two seats next year. Especially if the team does well.

    If all else fails consider the terrace seating. A buddy of mine picked up 10 yard line row 15 in the 200 terrace this year. Better seats than mine. Just keep an eye out for the invites going out.

  10. Just got this email. At least they communicated and let me know.

    Due to high renewals for the 2012 season, we were unable to accommodate your upgrade request. We look forward to being able to upgrade you in future seasons.

    Your season ticket package will be shipped via FedEx the first week of August. If you have any questions, please contact the Redskins Ticket Office at 301-276-6050 or by email at tickets@redskins.com.

    We look forward to seeing you at FedExField this fall! Thank you, and

    Hail to the Redskins!!!

  11. So, if the Redskins offer Club Seats for "half" price, does one get to use the "full" price of the ticket for the charitable deduction? In other words, if I buy a $500 Zone A Club seat for $250, do I claim a $500 deduction or $250 deduction when the ticket is given to a charity? On one hand, my basis is, in fact, $250. On the other hand, the Redskins are calling these $500 seats sold for half price. I know there is a tax guru out there who is just dying to address this...

    For the record, I don't have Club Seats -- just curious if anyone has considered this.

    I don't believe there is a "face" value for premium seating. It is done by contract. You would be allowed to deduct the amount allowed by your contract or amount paid. Do your tickets havea price printed on them? If not I don't think they can have a face value.

  12. I am unhappy with no upgrade this year.. also considering dropping my tickets next year. I have been a STH for 11 years now. My seats are in the 229 row 14 (Corner of the endzone). I don't understand how people are getting upgraded from the UL into the 100's but I was not moved forward at all.

    I better not call the ticket office because if they make me the offer of a full refund, I might take them up on it.

    Would not hold my breath for a refund offer. They had some nice seats on the pick a seat day. They had 225 and 226 row 15 pairs for sale. Good seats. I was seriously considering picking up a pair and selling mine.
