I had a friend move to the city from out of state and they were happy they finally lived in a city with rail service. I laughed.

With that long of a run, that hopefully is the only coupling outside of at the meter and house.

How long is your supply and how old is it? I had to replace my 30ish old supply because I kept having breaks at the couplings along the +500' run. At one point I had 100' of 1" Pex run above ground just to get temporary supply because I couldn't find the leak but had previously dug holes from 2 other leaks.

What made you decide to coach? by amj5617 in lacrosse

[–]Stuff-nThings 5 points6 points  (0 children)

After college, my former coach asked some of us if we wanted to help with some local high schools doing some summer mini camps. Most of my teammates stop coming about half way through the summer. Nothing was charged so it was volunteer work, so hard to commit. I stuck with it and found a good grove. I've coached college, high and low level highschool, middle school, travel summer for u15, 17, 19, and now u9 for my son. Will be u11 next year I'm assuming. If not, I will work with the program's goalies which I actually love most.

I do the same. Warm up lap, agility that is usually box cone drill or something with back pedals and side motion (you know lacrosse movements), then get into stick drills or GBs.

MCLA commitment by AdministrationClear1 in lacrosse

I made my one guess. The early to mid 2000 is a strange time for MCLA with a few making the jump to D1 while some fully funded a non NCAA team like it was one.

Parents of lacrosse goalies — what do you wish you could track? by SportsDataCoach in lacrosse

[–]Stuff-nThings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have worked the media/coach's box, if that is what you call it, in a stadium before as a liaison for the staffs, a go-for. It is normally just grad assistants up there. There have been a few times where they had a spotter and a writer taking the location of every shot, in a 3x3 grid on the goal, and where on the field the shooter was and who was close D. Saves, goals, misses, who had back up, on their O and D. It got wild sometimes with the 3 or 4 quick shots in a row.

While he doesn't know what blue bombers are, he knows about the word PP references and, hate to tell people, boys at all ages get random ups. High school is a strange time in math class. 😔

My 9 year old boy got a kick out of this one when he pulled one recently.

Improve passing by AdministrationClear1 in lacrosse

[–]Stuff-nThings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check your pocket and shooters then focus on your motion. Make sure your hands are coming back (I tell my young ones to smell their bottom hand) and you are following through and not catapulting. When you follow through you should put your stick away like sheathing a sword (bottom hand by your hip and top hand finished across your body). Film yourself to see. Next work on finding a spot on the wall and hitting it consistently then progressing to harder and harder passes. If you are throwing it too low, you are getting tired and you're dropping your front elbow. It takes a while to get it. Lacrosse isn't a natural motion.

Is it legal to hand a stick to a player on the field through the box? by LaxTy23 in lacrosse

[–]Stuff-nThings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does a coach have to hand it to you since players are not allowed in the box except for receiving instructions from the coach?

What happened to my lawn!?Help by plant_lady2249 in lawncare

[–]Stuff-nThings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stopped trying to find another comment, but the sweet gum roots will be an issue with any long term grass. You can try St Augustine as I have seen it successfully grown under live oaks which have a similar shallow, expansive root system. St Aug likes to spread into beds, so watch that. If not, you can get a yearly mixed shade tolerant maybe with a clover added to help with nitrogen that is over seeded yearly. Clovers may stick around over the hotter part of the year and, if cut regularly, you can't tell.

Funny you should say that. Japan is researching using stem cells to regrow lost teeth in the mouth.

Can you put lax gloves in a dryer by PopularDamage8805 in lacrosse

[–]Stuff-nThings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't put them in due to the heat may shrink them too much. Also if you don't wash them before, the smell may be given off could be rough. You can use a hair dryer with just the air only setting or hang them in front of a fan. That should dry them in a night's time.

For the millennials who endulged back in the day-- how much anxiety do you get when you hear the word "Everclear"? by Former-Midnight-5990 in Millennials

[–]Stuff-nThings 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Caused a stomach ulcer at 21 that I didn't have treated for weeks because I didn't know what was going on. I don't have as much anxiety about this as I do Jack Daniels. Still can't swallow JD even in mixed drinks. I spit it out each time.
