As a west coaster, I have heard of ALL of them, I just don’t care about them at all.

I was wondering about that. My experience is from about 3 decades ago.

Another downside is that the materials used result in walls not complying with stick-built sizes. Remodeling a manufacturegd home is challenging as the walls are differnt thickness and insulation. Adding on requires some form of foundation as mfg homes have none.

In the time of Vikings, a boat could be put together in just a few weeks. To make one sail took twice as many months to spin the yarn, weave the fabric, and assemble the yardage for one sail. More weavers than boat builders.

Depending on the volume of contents in a casserole, turn the lid upside down to provide a solid surface for another container of something.

Wait what? I would never consider buying mashed potatoes, green beans, salad, or rolls. Crescent rolls are a family recipe hand-me-down, and the others are rather easy, so buying them is out of the question!

Bought our turkey this afternoon. Done. Will spatchcock again this year. Works great. Considering pre-making and freezing roux so none of that last-second making some on the side while keeping the gravy cooking, again.

And I would like to know -exactly- what “excesses” Democrats have supposedly committed according to Musk? I can go on for about an hour about excesses of the R’s. Can Musk come up with even ONE D excess?

And always take a moment to think ahead of some worst-case scenarios and do some preventative actions to prevent them.

Watch out though. Some of those old cookbooks call out for an oven temperature of Medium Hot! Whatever that means.

Wallpaper. Just No. Ever.

And yet when it comes to a religious exemption for allowing a woman to decide to adhere to their own religion for abortion, “no such consideration for their religious beliefs” doesn’t count I guess.

As an actual piece of advice and non-plumbing related, the front turn signal lights of a ‘67 VW do not have a separate part number seal. It uses the equivalent of plumbers putty instead.

I am almost surprised that a molotov wasn’t hurled from the women’s college in the direction of the catcallers.

A while ago my email address was farmed out and I received a bunch of apparently spam emails. Looking closer, they were from actual companies with actual websites. They were the ones who were taken for $ for buying my address.

I still need to change my voicemail outgoing message to, “Don’t bother, I don’t look for VMs, and even when I know I have one, it may take many days to actually listen to it, so, no.”

Jersey Mikes provided sandwiches for our local Rocklin Mini Maker Faire a couple of times. I was not impressed at all. Free is good, but the sandwiches were dull and boring. I have had one full-priced sandwich and was still not impressed.

Since my instructions indicated dishwasherable, I do. I don’t use it often, so not likely to damage it soon.

Cereal boxes, thick paper, just about any material can work as a shim instead of buying an expensive piece of stuff.

Isn’t that what a dishwasher is for? Washing dishes and anything else that can go in there, like the basket components? The base walls just need to be wiped down.
