Kids have very little to worry about, they are at the very least risk of anyone with covid. As long as the adults and elderly are vaccinated they should be fine to interact with children. Children are walking germ factories anyway, this is nothing new.

I sincerely apologize that you have to live in Oregon, the most dysfunctional state when it comes to healthcare. I went to the Oregon health department website looking for places to get vaccinated and it was just nonsense about racism being a health crisis and talks of getting tested for STDs when you got your covid…

But if the nose/mouth isn’t actually covered by the mask, then it still does nothing.  You have to wear it properly for it to work.  And the “fashion” masks do less than nothing, you can’t actually believe they do something.  Take a spritzer bottle to one and tell me if it stops anything.

These are just cards, they mean nothing. GF forgot her card going to get shot #2, I sent her a pic of it, but no worries! They had her info in the system and just gave her another card because its a worthless card for your own personal medical information. No one should be asking to see your card that isn’t a medical…

I was being a little sarcastic when I referred to it as underpowered.

I was waiting on you.

So does simply closing off vents in unused rooms. Minor effect on the over all system operation and is an expected usage scenario.

Ahhh. 1970. The pinnacle of muscle. The underpowered cutlass came with a Rocket 350. The Supreme had a 455, the biggest Engine GM offered in that era, and the 442 had all the goodies on top of that with the W30 package. I never really cared for the “Supreme” wing bumps on the rear fenders, but there is no doubt that…

Set up a good system of box fans in windows to get airflow in your home, some going in, some going out, with some smaller fans in the interior to help create circulation and an airflow pattern.

Swamp coolers only work in the desert.  Most people don’t live in the Desert.  They are useless for anywhere with humidity, which is most of the country.

This DIY substitute just wastes energy. You should probably call your AC guy to service your system and make sure it has clean filters. Also, make sure all the vents are wide open so you have as much airflow over your AC coil as possible.  Then run your AC like a normal person.

The bathroom fan is to remove the moisture that is generated from showering.  The humidity is bad, get rid of the humidity.  You don’t need the fan if its just to remove the smells.

With multi-story homes, close or partially close the vents in the lower levels to force more cooler air to the top levels.

You show me a tesla solar panel I can get for $200 as referenced and I’ll agree you won, until then, small win for me. lol

Considering that your statements agree with my post, I am assuming you didn’t bother to actually read it.

Only its $850 for a one day school.

though, for me, a prohibitively expensive one.

I tracked down a clock for my 1970 A body and its been sitting on my desk to be installed in that blank spot for at least 15 years. I’ll get to it eventually.

BMW’s Performance Driving school is without question the biggest bang for your buck anywhere in America, if not the world. There is a short instruction class in the beginning, but then the rest of the day is seat time. I love driving, and I absolutely love track time, but for the money, you can’t get a better deal…

Since this is a 1-of-1 BMW with a V12 in it it also satisfies the “I’m way wealthier than you” criteria.
