MEP001 last posted a year ago today. He left a huge hole in this forum for sure. I was always amazed at the ideas and tricks he always came up with, leaving me wondering, why I didn't think of that. I couldn't get over how knowledgeable he was about so many things. Even though I'm out of the...

I have a nest in the peak of my pole barn, about the size of a grapefruit, and about 18' off the ground. I've looked at different products on Amazon, and it's not uncommon to see in the reviews that they don't shoot as far as advertised. I definitely don't want to fire this stuff from a ladder...

I've been on this forum for 24 years, and I don't think I have seen less enthusiasm than this year. I know I use to get excited about it every year. I had even planned on showing up this year, just to visit old acquaintances, but life prevented it. Those of you that went, was there anything...

If anyone wants to make their own hoses, this is in Poseyville, in the SW corner of IN, just one mile off I-64. I have no connection to this and will not benefit in any way. Just wanted to bring it to your attention.

I want to buy a water softener for my home and want to know if you guys have any thoughts. It's only my wife and I living here permanently, but seem to have a steady flow of grandchildren staying over, so would want to take that into consideration. The water supply is also shared with a small 2...

I had a problem with my well, and sucked sand into everything downstream. I've got everything pretty much cleaned out, but my washer has a trickle of water entering constantly, even when not in use. No doubt, the fill solenoids are full of sand. Before I jump into this thing, I'm wondering if...

This is on the front of my step-daughter and husbands house. What’s it for? The house was built in the late 50’s.

This is your guy. I'm amazed every time I see this. Amazing, right? What's more amazing is that the garage picture is the "Before".

My step-daughter and husband are in the process of building a new house. They were posed with the option of upgrading from the standard 13 SEER, to 16 SEER. They had no clue as to what that meant, and asked me. I have no clue either...have never heard that term. Of course, they are a bit over...

This rubber boot is off a little rock/fountain thingy that my wife loves. I tore it while attempting to replace the pump. The cord runs through the small hole and the big part fits around a shoulder made into the bowl of the fountain. I don't even know what to call it to do a good google search...

I snore pretty bad, so my wife has to have a white noise machine and a box fan running to drown me out. She had the little Magicteam unit that was loud enough, but a big drawback was that it would only run a maximum of five hours and would shut off (I wonder whose bright idea that was?). She...

I'm trying to fix my shower, but don't have any idea what brand the valve is. I couldn't find any parts at Menards that look remotely like those inside there, and I also couldn't get them out. If anyone knows what it is and if I need a special tool to get those guts out, I would give you my...

It was bound to happen...

IMO, they have always been the hairy mole of the car wash industry. Everyone knew they were there, but no one talked about them. They always seemed to pop up in the lap of successful washes, but not so much anymore. They never were much of a force to be reckoned with, but are they relevant at...

Anybody interested in a free ride in a helicopter for 4 people?! I'm still looking for 2 more people to join us! We leave early Saturday (October 24th) morning from Louisville, KY and will fly to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. There we will have breakfast on the beach, and then on a yacht for...

I'm sure this will shock you but I thought I would let you all know that yesterday I volunteered for the vaccine trials for Covid-19. The vaccine is the one that was created in Russia. I received my first shot yesterday at 4:00 pm, and I wanted to let you all know that it’s completely safe...

I'm considering buying a house in a rural setting and the water source is a well. I know less than nothing about this and what it entails. Is this something to be afraid of or just different? The house was built in 2008.

It all started back in 1969, washing down bays in my Dad's first self-serve wash. As of this afternoon, I have sold my washes and holstered my wand for the last time...

I instantly thought of you.

When someone mentions a song and you can't get it out of your head? Like...Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Joleeeeene!!!
