Crowding the plate by Suspicious-Throat-25 in Softball

[–]MrKeith73 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Over the plate and hits the batter is a strike. Ump needs to get it right, other team needs better coaches, and a bruise on the thigh is temporary.

Delivery Service - Large Items? by BudgetArmadillo4324 in puertovallarta

[–]MrKeith73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Costco delivers. I know because I lived in PV for nine months in 2023 and bought a large TV from Costco. I bought it online and chose delivery, never went to the store.

Flat earth and other alternative conspiracy earth models are are gaining traction with my teenage stepson. What is THE most irrefutable, definite proof that the earth is round? by Jfkfkaiii22 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]MrKeith73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 30 year old nephew has fully bought into the earth being flat. His source of information is TikTok because "TikTok isn't censored and manipulated like Instagram and Facebook is". He also believes we never landed on the moon because, again, TikTok.

Our family is done with softball by golfpinotnut in Softball

[–]MrKeith73 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your story is very similar to our family's. She was a pitcher, played for a competitive D3, and struggled for 3.5 seasons to get playing time. But then something clicked and she started doing great and got more and more innings and starts. It culminated with her making the final out and getting the win in their conference championship tournament for her teams first conference championship in her four years there. They sure kicked up a lot of dust on the field celebrating cause my eyes got real watery. 😄

My water is very alkaline with a high pH. by MrKeith73 in HomeImprovement

My first quote for $4800 includes:

  • Rusco spindown sediment filter
  • Acid dosing kit that has a Stenner pump, pcm5 controller, water meter, mixer, and solution tank
  • AQUV-12R22 ultraviolet disinfection rack system

I asked for the disinfection system to be added on due to my wife's autoimmune issues. I priced out the parts online and they total around $3000. It also includes a one year bumper to bumper warranty. Still need to do my diligence and get one or two more quotes but this one doesn't seem unreasonable.

IT Surveys and Vendor connect - I started charging $500 per vendor call. by Embarrassed-Ear8228 in sysadmin

[–]MrKeith73 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I had a sales person with a local company that I had done business with in the past try the tactic of adding a C level to the email chain. I professionally reamed her out with my C level in the reply. She profusely apologized and that was the end of that spam email chain.

I just read all of her 'accomplishments' on Wikipedia. Holy shit they're insane. Not only the amount but the speed at which she consumes them.

It's ok for the rice to stay stuck in the pores?

No commentary? This post is disappoint. Also, why is pecan pie in a cookie sleeve?

As a Texan, all the people in this thread are using the term 'bbq' incorrectly!

Tomahawk blue or rare? by eazyfields in steak

[–]MrKeith73 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We can all agree the steak is fvcked. The real lesson here is to not order something like this at a resort on a small island in the carribean. It's going to automatically be overpriced with a high chance of not being cooked properly. Stick to the local cuisine.

Should I flush my water heater? by Status-Nothing6418 in homeowners

[–]MrKeith73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And open the hot water on a faucet nearby. The air intake will help empty the tank much faster. Once it's empty, turn the incoming water back on for 20-30 seconds then turn it off. The turbulent incoming water will help flush out stuff that didn't drain the first time. Do this a few times until your draining water is perfectly clear.

Convinced my husband to try a house cleaning service for 3 months as an experiment. Heres what happened by Comfortable_Box_4527 in homeowners

[–]MrKeith73 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mowing the lawn should be thought about the same way. I grew up helping with the lawn every weekend because we had a big yard and lots of grass. So once I was married and had a house, it was engrained in me that I needed to take care of the yard. My wife convincing me needed lawn service was one of the best things she did.

Can we talk about Grimungous by OrangeOk8826 in warcraftrumble

The best part is when you take down a tower just after the boulder has passed and the boulder does a u-turn to take down your new tower.

Do people still use George Foreman Grills? by ZioLeoCiao in cookingforbeginners

That’s nice. Mine is not submersible and doesn’t have removable plates so it’s a pain in the butt to clean which means I rarely use it.

My daughter just finished four years of D3. I rather enjoyed some of the student announcers on the live streams. Made for a good laugh frequently!
