    My kids are all over the board. My daughters (21/22) are working part time jobs and figuring it out. Renting apartments, paying utility bills, fixing hoopty cars and dealing with roommates. Same things I did at that age. Growing up,living life and figuring out that said life is expensive...

    What's a good way to tell your boss your co-worker sucks and not sound like you are whining

    A boss that doesn’t know is a bad boss… There are always plenty of signs, if they are watching. And the fact that the exact same thing happened to the person before you- and he’s still not aware….. Well, sorry. I’m with Daytona. Document, document, document.

    Cost of water heater replacement

    I live in the central valley of Ca. Not LA and not Bay Area. My plumbing subs are $175- $225/ hour and seem to have to run to Fergusons or Depot on every single job. Electricians have become a relative bargain… No clue why?

    1962 Mandella

    Thank you. Old flatbottoms are so visceral with the v drive whine, the throttle at one with your foot, engine noises, wind in the face, sitting at water level, precise steering. You are so disconnected from all that in a modern boat. Do I want to do it every day. Probably not. Is it the...

    1962 Mandella

    Out with a buddy and his Rogers jet boat. Glass water and 70plus degrees. Bitchen! Rogers has my old Obnoxious 565” and ran 68 on gps. Its a heavy tank. Makes the mandella look and feel puny. Pretty damm fun day!
