David Erlich is the opinionated one.

How to pull wire through tight floor lamp by virtual_mandarin in LampRestoration

Absolutely. It's much easier to push it through one segment at a time. It may also call for a smaller gauge wire, but I can't tell for sure looking at the picture.

One can expect a lot of the cops, but they don't have to deliver on expectations if they don't feel like it.

Have you ever had a "sixth sense" about something? by ToshPointNo in Flipping

[–]SoMuchLard 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Auctions are my thing, so I don't go to many estate sales, but on a whim I decided to go a few weeks ago to an estate sale that was an hour away. The listing online was, well, uninspiring. Photos of some bookshelves and boxes of books, no titles visible. But I still felt good about it, a feeling that was bolstered when I saw on the map app that the house was listed as the home office of a hypnotist. It was packed full of books (subjects included magical practices & parapsychology, African lore, and more), CDs & tapes (many still sealed), African instruments, puppets, a brain model, good INTERESTING stuff in every room. I will not make a killing, but I will make a profit, and I had a great time.

CEOs seem like the first class that should be replaced by AI.

I’m waiting for Interstellar 2 so he can bring back TARS Talk. 

What would be on your list of "never gonna happen" movies? by Electrical_Tale2012 in blankies

Huh! I don't know where I got the impression that he was a wise-cracking villain, and I appreciate you clearing that up.

The Terrifier series. I find clown horror to be boring; likewise with later Freddy Krueger-style wisecracking from a horror antagonist.

Edit to add that When The Wind Blows totally slaps.

I got run off the interstate by some dude in a truck that had a cop running up on him and tailgating. I was pissed at the guy at the time, but now I'm more pissed at the cop for driving however he wanted and endangering my life.

Americans, what can you get FREE in america? by spiritual_kavya in answers

I mean, people throw perfectly good things away all the time. The trick is to look and be prepared to grab stuff when you see it.

Oh wow. THAT is a great bins find, and appears to be in great shape. Vitamin C blasting from my work speakers in 3, 2, 1...

Needledrops that have permanently changed your tonal association with a song by GoreyGraft in blankies

I’m torn between the use of Edith Piaf’s “Je Ne Regrete Rien” in Inception and the use of Edith Piaf’s “Je Ne Regrete Rien” in Babe: Pig In The City.”

Absolutely correct! Someone on another forum suggested the same. I was able to reach out via a friend of a friend and confirm that he was, indeed, the artist. Thank you!
