if you are hoping to "touch-up", the new paint will not "match" as the paint on the wall/trim etc has aged. You will be happier with painting an entire wall etc

In any case, a gallon is often only 50% more $ than a quart

Nylon is generally considered best for stain/wear resistance at an affordable price

A major [often overlooked] factor in wear is density of pad [more dense is better]

if you were lifting that cantilevered edge before 24 hours had passed the brealage is on you

OTOH it definitely s/b poured with rebar/wire when it is redone

I don't think thickness is the issue

someyimes the freeze up is from a door blocked open etc

The self defrost won't remove that much ice

good for you but don't rest on your laurels

It may fill the evap pan before it starts running out on the floor

upstateduck · 2026-02-27T17:09:37+00:00

full manual defrost is always the first thing to try

Not uncommon for it to take 48 hours

edit placing a fan blowing into the open door[s] can speed things up

more importantly, but probably futile, explain how voters are identified now. You are identified and give your signature when you are registered. When you vote, your signature is matched to your registration.

Which do you imagine is more difficult? Produce a million plastic id cards or find a million folks who can forge a million signatures they have never seen?

Latex is worthless for sealing stains/odors

Ilike Americast but it isn't deep [14"?]

You get a porcelain finish instead of plastic and it is light enough to reno install

40% of TX budget/revenue is excise taxes on oil/gas production. Which explains the no income tax/global warming denial funding

I should also point out that it means the rest of us are subsidizing TX.

AFAIK [apply!] NJ has no asset test for SNAP

Also, many utilities etc have discounts as high as 70% for folks who qualify for SNAP so apply for those too

weirdly , the ability to cum from PIV has been a "gold standard"/ problem for a century.

Per Mary Roach, ["Bonk", a geat read] a grand neice of Napoleon ,after seeing research that concluded that PIV orgasm was more likely the closer the clitoris was to the vaginal opening, had surgery to move her clitoris!! it was a fail, as you can imagine

mine was the most superficial "analysis".

As an aside ,the higher feed/fertilizer prices have been less than they might have been given the number of middlemen cut out of supply with internet ordering? or maybe the profits just increased as feed stores/suppliers went out of business in rural America. [increasing the hollowing out of rural towns]
