  • when it rains, it pours.

    This month isnt treating me well.

    My polaris pump motor locked up, and it's been so wet I dont want to be in the mud changing it.

    The microwave took a shit, wife and I are currently debating on another counter top unit or upgrading to an over the stove style. She's leaning twards the cheaper and easier counter top style, so we'll likely compromise and do it her way.

    The fan motor on our a/c went out, I replaced it, now it looks like the compressor is going out, and we'll need to replace it, along with the outside unit and inside coils to the new r410 or whatever. Thanks a lot obama.


    I stayed home with my daughter yesterday since she has the flu. Wife stayed with her monday, and the MIL today. They are teachers and only have a day or two left to take off this school year (only weeks left for them)

    and last night, someone decided that my sub and amp in my truck needed to be theirs more than it needed to be mine.

      oh Im just venting. Im pretty much used to life throwing everything and the kitchen sink at me, and I keep my head up. When it all comes at one time, it makes it more difficult. It's not as bad as it could be, mostly first world problems. This isnt nearly as bad as broke and homes was.

        Damn DJ! That all blows, you going to claim the truck on insurance? What is the plan for the AC? I paid out over 6k 2 years ago for mine to be reworked.

          Yeah, I feel you, man. One of our house AC units went out, and was 17 years old, so it had to be completely replaced. Shelf in the garage fell off the wall onto my car. Stupid mowing crew mowed over four sprinkler heads that hadn't fully retracted, so had to get those replaced out of my own pocket because there's no way to prove they did it. Just a bunch of shit that all seems to fail at once.

            Just get a compressor and buy some 22 off the black market. Find the leak and you will be back in bidness

                I think im just going to pick up a pair of 10's somewhere and keep rocking. Ive got another amp that was slated for the 69, it'll work in the truck though. They dicked up the drivers door at the top of the skin pulling it back to slim jim it, and scratched it. I put in an email to Tony this morning, though Im now leaning towards not filing a claim.

                The a/c guys paul sent me to came right out and "fixed" it for now, replaced the bad capacitor that was causing the immediate issue. I pretty much knew we needed to replace that unit for the last couple years, but kept it limping along. They quoted 3800 for the new stuff installed, and it seems pretty reasonable from what I can tell.

                    Most people I talk to have nothing but good things to say about you, but you sure come across as a condescending prick. Do you have an inferiority complex you've attempted to overcome through overachievement? Or were you fondled as a child?

                    You and slow99 should date. You both have passive aggressiveness down pat.

                      Damn, that sucks DJ.

                      I've been looking for a house for over 2-years and I finally decided to buy new. All of the homes that were older, had issues. Older homes had nice shade tress, but the sidewalks, decks, driveways and even the house's had foundation issues. Anything electrical was old and making weird noises. Most needed paint and upgrades, so just decided that we needed to start fresh with warranties.

                      Good luck broskin...
