Agree. It is a matter of preference. (Probably what the wife wants).

Will never understand this truck series I am watching just now. Is there anything more boring in sports?
Oh my, they just had a caution. The highlight of the night.

That does look like a bird well done.

I’ve sent you a PM; I’ve got the Elite model w/the digital thermostat and I can tell that accessory is going to be worth it.

Why is there aluminum foil over...

It's a Traeger BBQ, so there is a cover over the pellet smoker. I put aluminum foil (two layers) over the cover to allow the grease to flow out. Pellet smoking is a very different method than a BBQ grill (Weber, etc.).

How fun for you and your bride. Just about everyone I know, including family, has had their floors done in the last five years. Makes me think about doing it too, but then I think about having to leave home and ....

Living in Orygun has obviously degraded my brain as the name of Ben Dover doesn’t ring a bell. I googled “Ben Dover” and it seems he was a cinema star who performed without any clothes....

And here I thought I was (somewhat) a man of the world.

If I had known earlier of Tork’s remodeling adventure, I’d a let Tork and crew stay here,, we’re ready to take off for a couple weeks soon , we could use a housesitter in search of a gig.. as long as he looked after the poodles and watered the pool occasionally, I even have a few old bottles of vino around, fortunately we found a nice lady to take our poodles in for a reasonable rate..

I sure could use a squirrel shoosher here tho while we’re out and about. most of the tomatos are ripening out but I have oodles of asian pears that could use a couple more weeks on the tree.

The best age to redo your hardwood floors is around 80 and hope you live long enough to move out before you...

I was going to turn you down until I saw you had a dog sitter. Just leave the key under the flower pot to the left of the front door and I’ll bring my own cork puller...
