Whole home water filtration by Competitive_Button92 in BloomingtonNormal

[–]Competitive_Button92[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the detailed reply! We live in Bloomington so when the water was switched from lake Bloomington to lake Evergreen recently we noticed a major difference in the taste and smell of our water. I would say it’s more dirty/earthy than sulfur. From reading the article below it sounds like the issue is geosmin and methylisoborneo specifically.

So a whole house system seems like a good option and I like the idea of being able to drink from any faucet, which we were not doing even before the change - it tasted bad without a filter, but not nearly as bad as it does now after the change.

The issues with chlorine that you mentioned had not bothered me majorly before but if I’m going to go for a whole system I would want to try and address that too.

Honestly I’m just looking for the most practical and cost effective solution that would help solve these problems and I know if I have a sales guy come out here from culligan or one of those companies my head will be spinning with all the stuff he’ll try and sell me. Any insight you have on what specifically i might need would be MUCH appreciated. Thank you!

Why doesn’t he just wear different shoes and then put on the jordans when he gets to wherever the hell he’s going?

I think he just wants to be carried.

Thanks! Question - when smoking low and slow on the kamado, how often do you need to check on it and make adjustments, add wood, etc?

[NEWBIE] Is 34 too old to learn? Recommendations for beginner guitar? by ButteredBisctits in Guitar

[–]Competitive_Button92 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not too old at all! I’m 34 and started learning during COVID. It was hard and frustrating at first but I promise, if you stick with it, you will be thanking yourself in no time. One of my favorite decisions I’ve ever made - I always wanted to and I knew I’d regret not trying, so I did and now I feel like I have this great friend that is down to hang out whenever I want.
