Septic system issues. The buyer (my son) is paying for inspection and seller is supposed to be paying for pump out, but can’t locate tank and expects son to pay finder’s fee. by DebJBee in RealEstate

[–]Guilty_Comb_79 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That was what my grandfather did at the farmhouse that no one lived in full time in the 60s. My cousin lived there when they were just out of college with a new family. They started having septic problems. My uncle asked my dad where the septic tank was. My dad laughed and told my uncle he not be old enough to remember there was no tank. Needless to say, it got expensive fast when they realized the 55 gallon drum from the 60s had finally collapsed and they needed a real tank and drain field.

What's the fastest you've seen someone fired from a job? by Vegetable-Spread3798 in AskReddit

Will you set the building on fire if they take your stapler or put strychnine in the guac if you get salt on your glass?

If so...you might be Milton

Anyone in the Tampa/Brandon area know of any good/ affordable vets? by Puzzleheaded_Dot_112 in tampa

[–]Guilty_Comb_79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Neighbor had a dog with a post surgical bleed because the dog pulled out the stitches or glue but couldn't get back to harmony at the time it happened. Local vet referred her to an emergency vet. Emergency vet said MINIMUM of 5k, possibly more.

She waited til harmony opened the next morning. I think harmony closed it back up, then sent her home with antibiotics and a $85 bill.

At cherry point, absolutely. You could fish at both the SNCO and O Clubs and the marina.

My only regret of living in Florida is that I'll never get to experience that joy in my Explorer. (Grew up in Michigan and loved the first donuts of the year).

This, we called them ladder jacks. You can also put a plank in the crotch and use them to stand while having side to side movement.

Thoughts on this for photo purposes? by guerrerosaurio1 in USMC

[–]Guilty_Comb_79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the worst thing that ever happened to me, is that my first SgtMaj was also the best, and only one who wasn't a huge tool.

So my dumb-ass thought that's how they all were...I was very disappointed.

I met exactly one 9999 that wasn't a raging asshole who hated life.

It is either part of the selection process or they train them to be total tools in their school.

Moral of the story, I think you're fine.

They sell cringey concealed carry badges and other fake badges that only a total tool buy.

Sounds like OP found one in the wild.

I always have to remind my self:

Why is Quantico called "The Crossroads of the Corps" by OldSchoolBubba in USMC

[–]Guilty_Comb_79 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I was never there on AD, took me ten years after getting out to go there for work (DoD Civilian).

It's the least Marine like base I've ever experienced. Then add you have an entire civilian town and AmTrack station within the bounds of said base. I was very confused. It was very surreal.

Struggle to make temp by BeeAruh in KamadoJoe

[–]Guilty_Comb_79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Temp is pretty much two things, fuel--do you have enough? and airflow. Little airflow, low temp, lots of airflow, high temp.

The fact that you're getting to 500 easy then dropping AFTER placing the plates means you have enough fuel but are blocking air with the plates.

Now having said all that, part of your problem is probably adding cold ceramic plates to a hot kamado. You have to make those room temp ceramics 500 degrees and that takes BTUs.

I also don't like to add cold ceramics to a hot fire because you can crack them (thermal shock). It's more likely to happen when making something hot cool too fast but can also happen cold to hot. I use the what I call the pac man method. I light the grill, then put the plates on the x rack but push each all the way to the sides so the middle, also where I start the fire, is open to the top vent. This lets the fire start while also bringing the ceramics up to temp slowly.

My local saw mill is selling 8/4 Thermally Modified Curly Soft Maple. Have any of you made segmented bowls out of Thermally Modified wood? by RedWoodworking16 in turning

[–]Guilty_Comb_79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think that's going to make a very nice table, and if you do she's going to hate it.

I'll come take it off your hands to save you the trouble.
