    I've been digging on the spa forums, but svtp knows all, so here goes. Moved into a new place, hot tub was working when we saw the house in the summer but drained when we closed in December. Didn't try it at all when we first moved in, until this weekend. Filled it up, everything seemed to...

    Idiots drive on ice, fall through, leave their dog in the truck to die.

    This really ticks me off...and to know it happened in my own backyard. Other articles mentioned they drove on the ice and were observed by police doing donuts on the ice. Hope it was worth it...:nonono...

    Credit card stolen twice in a week

    I need to narrow down where this is happening. I get a new card like 2 weeks before Christmas because of the whole Home Depot breach last year. So I activate and start using that one. Then, between Christmas & New Years I get a call from my bank asking to verify some purchases. There were 6...

    I hate dental work

    Seriously. I brush, don't floss often, but generally keep my mouth clean. Go to the dentist, cavity here, cavity there, etc. I get the fillings, let them do the work, and my teeth feel worse when they're done. Where I had no pain or issues, now I have sharp edges, can't floss in between, and...

    snort coke, drive drunk, kill a cop, get 6-8 years

    This just makes me sick. Who am I to say what a "just" punishment is, but it still doesn't feel right. I remember this happening, drove by the next morning; it only happened about 2-3 miles from my house. - Repeat offender - Double the legal limit of blood alcohol - Admitted snorting cocaine @...

    picked up a new d/d

    I've been daily driving my '06 Ram 1500 for the last 8 years, averaging 14.5mpg and doing about 20k miles annually. Needless to say, I've spent a lot of money on gas. Anyway, I really thought about getting a '15 GT, but it's really not practical or comfortable for long rides (merely based on...

    what car would you not drive in the snow?

    I bet this classifies? As we're here at the jersey shore, in snowmageddon, I went to pick my wife up in my 4wd truck, and this was parked in her lot. I want to go back and wait for him to leave, and watch, perhaps offer a ride home in exchange for 1 day of use this summer :shrug:

    Buying a house sucks; is it supposed to be this hard?

    Buying our first house sucked, we almost got sued, etc etc. This time I thought it'd be a little easier; boy, was I wrong. We sold our house relatively easy. For sale by owner, ran my own open house, and got a buyer at the open house. It took about 2 weeks before I had the contract in my...

    Laying deck boards

    bark side up or bark side down. I didn't realize there'd be so much debate about this. Not being a deck builder, I figured I'd just hop online and see which way to lay them; boy was I wrong... So, real world experiences; what have you guys done? I'm just using plain PT wood, I don't...

    Home water delivery

    I've been considering switching to home water delivery, strictly for drinking water. Anyone else use one of these services? Have any info or recommendations? My wife and I drink quite a lot of water; aside from liquor (whisky, vodka, etc), I pretty much only drink water. How much you...

    My neck is "officially" screwed.

    went to the ortho yesterday for the first time. He comes in the room, does the exam, etc. Then says "I have to be honest, when I first saw your x-ray I thought they gave me the wrong one. I thought there's no way this is from a 29 yr old." Long story short, back in my junior year of HS...

    local Sandy video

    I know there's a lot of videos floating around out there. I thought this one was a good depiction. I live on the mainland only about 5 minutes from here...these places in the video are where I grew up and our local stomping grounds. It's just so terrible to see, and to know so many...

    My truck took some damage from driving through 4ft deep water, not bad, only a few pulley's. Speaking of which, it's amazing that within 48hours, bearings in 3 pulleys went bad. Anyway, I was outside fixing it and saw him circling above, then starting to about 25yds away at the little league...

    hood graphic; re-paint it, don't, repaint fenders....what to do?

    From the info I could find on 98's, the graphics are from the GT sport package. I just picked up a Cervini's 3.5" cowl and can't decide what to do about the graphics. If I should have it re-painted onto the hood and how it'll look with the bigger cowl. Should I just have the hood painted...
