Same here. So many restaurants are disappointing, it sucks when you have to shell out 50 bucks for a mediocre meal when you could have fed yourself much better for a week for that much.

I just got back from another two weeks in SF. Since I was there for so long I got a place with a kitchen because two loving weeks of eating out is basically some combination of expensive, inconvenient, disgusting or disappointing to me. Finance laughed at my grocery bill and decided they liked me a lot.

I can get behind that. But I am a fried rice man my self. Last week I made some steak fried rice from left over ribeyes we had. It was the poo poo. Sesame oil is key to good Asian cooking, though once we move, I would like to add a wok to my kitchen collection.

Fried rice and/or leftover mashed potatoes are pretty much tasty refrigerator velcro.

And I went with potatoes because the back yard of the place I was staying in had an entire loving hedge of rosemary. I'm not kidding....like bordering evergreen hedges you'd see around here in the northeast.......but rosemary. Also a peach tree and a lemon tree. I was way too happy about all of that.

If their salute is a V8, then the equivalent salute for a single cylinder engine seems very appropriate.

Just noticed your title- Primus+Fury Road=:perfect:
I'm actually surprised I've never found drugs in any of my cars- I bought more than my share of awful vehicles from suspicious people back in the day. My brother's Fiero came with a complimentary 1/8 oz of crappy weed and a nice glass pipe under the driver's seat and that's about it.

Mariooncrack you got in on time, last one available. Holy crap those went quickly, and the $400-ish I spent on them turned right back into $400ish, so mission accomplished.

I worked as a valet and people tried to pay me in weed on a weekly basis.

I found the largest bag of weed I've ever seen in the center console of a Tundra that I parked. The console latch was broken and it was just hanging wide open.

The '89 Celica GT I bought for $200 had 1.5 joints in the passenger door pocket. PO was kind enough to tell me I could keep them. They were pretty shite but eh, so is the car.

It is, of course, the most hellishly PO-hosed vehicle I've ever bought. It's been in storage for 5 years, waiting to unleash its horrrors upon the world and my psyche...

They're going to repo it over that $25.

What's their reasoning for not letting you pay it off?

It's just their stupid maximum pre-payment amount, which I presume is per month. I'm sure I'll be able to pay it off next month (maybe I'll walk into the bank with $25 in rolls of pennies).

To use generic math: There's $5000 owing, I go to pay $5000 online. Online banking says 'maximum pre-payment authorization $4975'. $25 remaining. :smith:

Hey fellow homeowners,

I need a new water softener. I've actually been going without for over a year, but just got a new water heater and would rather it not get filled with a ton of sediment like the old one was.

I called a company called Home Comfort Experts, who had installed everything in my house for the previous owners. I'm getting a Marlo brand softener installed tomorrow evening for $2,100, installed.

That seems really loving high to me, looking at Lowe's at the $497 Whirlpool brand softeners that have $199 installation.

Should I let the 'experts' do it or is that a huge ripoff?

I'd really like to do it myself but I can't solder and don't want to learn on my own plumbing (plus they're hauling away my old Bauer system thats been sitting down there disconnected for a year now).
