  1. The furnace was low on freon, the pump was running all day every day. I was burning $30/day in electricity. Now I can see how much per hour I am burning.
  2. I recently purchased a Whole Home Energy Monitor. Its super awesome. Why? I can tell you what my energy use is, currently. Go look at your meter and tell me what you are using, right now. Its not easy, and the power company likes it that way. I got a huge power bill and figured out my furnace had a problem. Well, if I had this thing I would have known the second day in the month that something was draining huge amounts of trons. Anyway, its a good thing. http://www.amazon.com/Efergy-E2-Wireless-Electricity-Monitor/dp/B003XOZG0Y/ref=pd_rhf_se_s_cp_5_SW9A?ie=UTF8&refRID=0K9CXPM305W4N7X7D7HK
  3. I work in Information Security, as a whole InfoSec is operating at an employment deficit. I have a 4 year degree in Business. I have lots of certs and lots of book learnin Coupled with Military Experience and a decade of chasing data around. I have worked in Silicon Valley Since about 2006 but have never left Columbus. I travel 90% of the time, all over the globe. I enjoy what I do though it comes with the usual frustrations. I am considered Senior Leadership for our Sales Organization.
  4. I just flash my lights. If I get pulled over I think it will be an interesting conversation regarding what I just did. Please cite me and PROVE I did it. The burden isn't on me.
  5. Whistling Bottle Rockets TSC sells a live trap that is big enough for a coyote.
  6. If its a fireplace they just aren't very efficient at heating. Using an insert or a stove is a better solution. Given that you might not want to spend much cash, a heat driven fan might work. http://non-electric.lehmans.com/search#w=fan
  7. The title here is not in fact the case. The point of this case is you aren't legally separated from child-rearing laws if you meet someone on CL and knock them up. If you go to a medical facility and follow the process that IS legal, you will end up fine.
  8. I was just in MN, it was -27. Today, in the same spot - with windchill, -57. The whole state is off school because its -20 in the capital city. If it was 20 in the capital the kids in -57 would still be in school.

    Dress Shoes

    Walking Company, Ecco shoes with orthotic inserts. You can thank me later.
  10. Break this down a bit. TIP has replaced the true term here. Gratuity. If I feel as though you are due my gratitude, I give 20%. If you suck, you get 2%. For pizza, 20% or more. If they deliver to my house (out in the sticks) I give more. If I drove into town for a different pizza, there is no gratitude from me for making the pizza. In Europe or Asia, its usually 5% and that is alot for them.
  11. just google it. Samsung <model> factory reset.
  12. I have a heat-pump. Works great. It isn't drawing from air though, it draws from ground temp.
  13. My ink is from Mike Prickett at Evolved.
  14. That's not a thing. http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/tech/products/story/2012-04-29/pegoraro-rooftop-antenna/54582432/1
  15. And Sears wonders why they are having trouble financially. Pawn Shops are good, garage sales, craigslist, etc...
  16. Ship her a cheap laptop, Chromebook.
  17. I have Clear for Internet. They just joined up with Sprint so I don't know if they are taking on new customers.
  18. in the iPhone you can DND all numbers but the ones you want. Whitelists rule.
  19. Guns don't kill people. You do this to my family, I kill people.
  20. If you see QLYS under 18, buy it.
  21. I use a sliding mitre saw for framing and rough stuff. If I want a good cross cut that is a finish piece I use a mitre box that doesn't slide. Fixed mitre boxes tend to have less capacity, sliders do greater widths.
  22. 3 factors. Weight, high and far back. Wheels, smooth as possible. Axles, look at the axle surfaces, polish the axles. Add graphite, done.
  23. Depression Glass and Crystal, Ebay is your best bet. The mantle clock, if it works, might be good for Ebay as well.
  24. new Vacuum, New Washing Machine, lots of kitchen utensils. Its like the perfect Christmas.
  25. We have dealt in antiques in the past. What type of items? Coke Collectables? Furniture? Old reading glasses?
