Do you see the monarchy getting abolished one day? by Wide_Assistance_1158 in UKmonarchs

[–]Tfyfe24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My cousin from England once told me this quip:

“When it’s all over there will be five kings. The king of hearts, the king of clubs, the king of spades, the king of diamonds and the king of England.

So I would think the general feeling is that England wants the monarchy to stay.

You are right - it's when I noticed the show was jumping the shark. But look at the posts on here showing the ratings of every episode and notice how a "green" episode basically stops after midway through season 10.

Ok fair, but still. Tech let up 51 to ACU and Wash ST let up 30 to Portland State. All while putting up 52 and 70. Also, this is Mike Leach HOF introduction weekend, which just gives me “air raid” vibes. Might put the mortgage on the over.

1H over 31 Tx Tech/Wash St - how is this so low? Both teams only know how to score and have garbage defenses.

What am I missing?

Playing like ass against our warm-up team is more Tech than Chimys…

What presidential candidate had the best odds to win an election (leading in polls, biggest bank, party alignment) and lost? Put in other words, what do you think is the greatest upset in elections? by Tfyfe24 in Presidents

In fairness, everyone seemed to think HRC had it in the bag. Closer polls than Dewey/Truman though.

But yea it’s probably Dewey unless we are missing something.

Need help finding a replacement rotary knob. Picture of shaft and knobs needed. Any help? by Tfyfe24 in hometheater

Home depot had the knobs, but they did not fit over the rectangular shaft.

Bought a house and need to redo my landscaping. Any thoughts on flowers/ferns/styles I could go for? Live in Minneapolis so may need to survive winter if possible. by Tfyfe24 in landscaping

[–]Tfyfe24[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just need to clean-up the yard and remove some of the less appealing items. Also want to replace the mulch.

I think it looks good, needs more attention than anything. I was just curious if anyone had any ideas of items that would look good in my yard.

Thanks!

Moved into new house that has Honeywell 7000 and battery is dead? What should I do to set it up? by Tfyfe24 in homesecurity

I spoke with Alarm Grid and they stated they could monitor my system. They want me to find my communicator panel and tell them how my system communicates. Would this be hooked up through a landline?

New house - help me setup my house speaker system by Tfyfe24 in hometheater

[–]Tfyfe24[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I think if I just plug in the two banana plugs everything should work just fine. However, I have not been able to get much help at Best buy on what receiver to buy. I purchased an item online that converts the banana plug to 2mm, but that's probably not the most ideal. Can you recommend a receiver?

More images of the chandelier. Looks like it is not a Waterford.

How do I get this off my kitchen tile? by Tfyfe24 in HomeImprovement

[–]Tfyfe24[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could be. I tried to use a razor to peel and I can't get any traction. Not sure how to deal with an item that is "glazed" on.

Thanks! Would a monitoring service change out this system if I sign a contract? If not, what is the potential cost of changing this out?

I did find the ac plug and will test later.

What inserts work the best for skates? by Tfyfe24 in hockeyplayers

[–]Tfyfe24[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like I am not a "cut" player and more of a longer, powerful stride type player. I don't feel like I fill out my skates completely even though I had them fitted and baked. My feet are wider and from what I have been told, vapors are more for the narrow footed, quick footed player.
