    Wayfair

    Used Wayfair for rugs and accessories. Very easy to deal with for returns. Had them ship me the wrong rug once. It happens. They sent out the new one right away at no charge and gave me like 30 days to send back the old. For nicer items, I've had good luck with PolyAndBark.com

    Let’s see those home office desks

    After having a dedicated office in the home for over 15 years, we disassembled it a few months ago. We purchased some screen extenders for the laptop and now work in various areas of the house. The nice part about this change, and the reason I did it, was that I can take this setup anywhere...

    Anyone else a dumbass?

    Last summer replaced the battery in my Wrangler, not paying attention, and hooked the terminals up wrong. Fried the new redtop battery which have gone way up in price, along with the alternator. The dumb feeling lingered for a while.

    Anybody Use "Compatible" Ink In Their Printers?

    Got so tired of dealing with printer not linking to the computer, or ink dry during the few times I need it. Being as I don't print too much whatever I need printed I email to the UPS store up the street and have them print it for a few bucks. If you're just doing this for recipes, have you...

    …Don Garlits Gives A Tour Of His Museum …

    Walked in there around 2005 figuring I would be there about an hour, stayed about 3. Handful of the cars I saw run back in the late 70's early 80's. As I was leaving I peaked my head around the do not enter area of the fence, and saw Don slide out from under a car on a kreeper. Still...

    World Series Of Pro Mod

    Someone who even mildly likes this stuff seeing (hearing) the nitro cars is a must. However I enjoy the Pro Mods much better, and always have. I was lucky as a kid to be around all this stuff. My folks were buddies with some of the guys who started it all back in the 80's, that being Tommy...

    Resume' Titles

    Anyone else here hiring, reading resume's, and getting a laugh out of them? Everyone is now a manager is the first thing I notice. This morning I'm going through them, and it now appears a person who works the front desk of a hotel is called a "Lobby Ambassador" A person who does security at...

    Real Estate : It’s a great time to buy. it’s a great time to sell

    Mentioned this thread to my GF who is a licensed agent, but does not practice. She stated the same mentioned about with spending 1000's of dollars, or weekend after weekend with a client only for them to decide they changed their mind. She also mentioned where someone buys a house and six...

    School me on Limo Golf Carts

    I live in a neighborhood where carts are our daily drivers to grocery store, gym, restaurants, beach, etc.. We have a GEM e4 without the lithium and it's fine. I looked into a conversion but did not see the benefit. If you're traveling far I can see it having some positives. I'm on year 4 with...

    Sub contractor issue

    As hard as it is right now to get people to work, I would suck it up. I'm dealing with more shoddy work in the last year then I have the last 20 combined. I hate it, but there does not seem to be too much I can do it about it at the moment other then working on an exit strategy to get out of...

    Grand National Roadster show this weekend.

    I believe it was 1982. The Washington D.C World of Wheels. My father had '66 Chevelle 427 with a blower. The engine compartment was done very nice and he was hoping to pick the best engine award. Rick debuted that Nova.... it was not even close.

    Adrenaline Powerboats 47 reaper

    They have been around for a long while. They used to be in Dawsonville, GA area, I would see a V-30 around here and there when I lived in the area back in 2002 range. I feel like maybe they built 3-4 V-30's. They also built one V-24 that is orange. Mike's designs have always been very slick in...

    Fish tanks anyone

    Had the same deal in my early 20's. I cut the shelf headboard off my waterbed frame, set a 125 gal on cinder blocks so it became the new headboard. Gals would come over and jump right on the bed to look at the fish. Always thought at some point later in life I would setup that same deal in a...
