Oh my God... They taste like crispy candy there. What was wrong with your order?

2020 Sierra has X-ray trailer vision: https://www.foxnews.com/auto/2020-gmc-sierra-hd-pickup-revealed-with-x-ray-vision See right through trailer, control trailer functions, etc...

Go to Nine-Eleven Tavern. They will tell you right off the bat that it's a 45 minute wait. But worth it. I think they wait till the oil reheats, don't just keep dropping them. It blows Barbill out of water. Yet... It's just a SouthBFLo bar. The gold standard of wings! Cash only.

Is everybody all present and accounted for here? Oh wait... Somebody is NOT on the bus! ??(Who's your pal Shady?)

I won't mess with the garage door torsion spring. Those things scare the Bejesus out of me!

EDIT: LoL... English as a secondary teacher... LMAO, nice reading comp on my part... Thought it was "English as a second language" which is what I am taking! Ha! /wallbash

Always the English teachers... LoL... This time, "English as a second language teacher." "Voulez-vous aller chez moi avec moi?" Please translate...

Get a set of "EZ-Outs" https://www.amazon.com/ATE-Tool-piece-Screw-Extractor/dp/B0002UJNWE Not sure what size... But why would it damage it if you are careful and using right size extractor? Ooops, just saw this! LoL...

Dishonorable cheapskate! ? LoL...

Sure... But not in same sport. Bears played @ Wrigley and were the NorthSide team. Cardinals at Comiskey (few @ Soldier) were the SouthSide football team.

Nine-Eleven Tavern in South Buffalo blows them all away. Just a tavern... Cash only, but out of this world. Bloomfield off of South Park: https://www.google.com/search?q=nine+elevan+south+buffalo&oq=nine+elevan+south+buffalo&aqs=chrome..69i57.9206j0j7&client=ms-android-verizon&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8#trex=m_t:lcl_akp,rc_f:nav,rc_ludocids:7539811684834992038,rc_q:Nine-Eleven%20Tavern,ru_q:Nine-Eleven%20Tavern

Battery on the 2014 MINI Cooper (F56)... I never seen anything like it! Totally enclosed under hood. Have to remove part of the hood molding... Total P.I.T.A. But it looks pretty all hidden and insulated in there. I guess it's the heat and humidity that destroy batteries the most. Better damn work, extend the life of battery. I dread changing it, probably throw a damn code or something! /smh

Yep. Basin wrench for reaching up under (and blindly behind) basin to tighten or loosen basin nut. Without it, it's almost impossible to do, a total muthaphu...er. LoL... I have vivid memories of my old man hollering it up before he got one. LoL These were the pre-Chinese, Harbor Freight days when tools went for an arm and leg AND first born Son! Ha! MAGA! Now... MOST faucets eliminate that nut, snap in, etc... But handy to have. Neighbor went to change his father in law's faucet many miles away. I told him to take it just in case. He almost didn't take it! He came back, thanked me... Said he had to use it. It saved day!!!

Usually things get bigger. When I replaced my water softener (2008), valve head moved fron 3/4" to 1" high flow.

That's how it usually is. My timer on washing machine went out last year... Tore whole panel apart, made custom stainless screws (with finish washers) to hold back it together... Looks like it was designed that way. This because it was glued prior to me doing "exploratory surgery." ? Afterall that, I figured out plastic ring comes off and timer slips out. Well now I am set for a full rehab! Ha! I was scratching my head the whole time saying: "Changing a timer can't be tearing apart whole panel... What the hell were these engineers thinking?" LoL... Whoever sees my machine will know that the repairman cared, a labor of love! ? +1.

Replaced the dimmer switch in bathroom (don't ask... LoL... Okay, anyway: "The light is too harsh in here, it needs to be softer." /smh... It does sooth from the grim reality... Ha!) Actually... Before LEDs... Dimmers practically on all lights (can recessed lighting, etc)... I live in dimmed darkness. Need to replace the washing machine hot/cold water valves... But it's the only fixture (with stationary tub) that has no immediate shutoffs, so will have to shutoff whole house. Will add shutoffs to stationary tub/machine... Probably why I am putting off changing washing machine valves... I will most certainly create a Federal Project! LoL... Sinks are getting easier these days with push-on, O-ringed connections. But I still have a basin wrench that the whole neighborhood borrows: My father gave it to me... About 40 years old... He always had non-standard plumbing projects. Handy little bugger!

Wow... I didn't know that. But NY is cheating sharing two teams, two stadiums! There is a game there every week!

We appreciate the honesty. ?

Do it all myself! Sometimes the wife even helps. Sometimes I seek professional help when it's really hard. That doesn't happen too much, I am getting older so things really aren't that hard anymore... I learned a lot during my years. ?

Just as with an expensive camera... You can take it outside, like right now in the cold (8°F)... But just put it in a bag... Plastic, or fleece insulated, etc... Before you bring it back in. Then slowly let the bag warm up.

Sports leagues are rigged, especially the NFL.

Coffee is gratuitious, does it have any nutritional value? That said... I have drank about 2 drops in my 50 years. I can live without out. Won't break me. Is this a controversial opinion? ? Word is, it is neither good nor bad: https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/expert-answers/coffee-and-health/faq-20058339

Fixed. ?

They just had a College Bowl at Wrigley there a few years ago. Player safety is compromised now. One endzone too tight. For the bowl game, offense only went in one direction, towards one endzone. I assume Wrigley after the Bears left was configured more baseball only.

Cool. But the Bears didn't play at Soldier Field in 1924. The Bears played at Wrigley Field and to this day have played more games @ Wrigley than anywhere else. In believe Cardinals mostly played at Comiskey & few @ Soldier. Nobody played @ (really) Old Soldier, except for a few games here and there. Bears started at Soldier around 1970. They should have shown than progression, but that's (Soldier Field progression) is a video in itself!
