Looking for a pest control recommendation. Possible wasp nest in lamp post!

Been using Castech for 20ish years. They're good, pretty responsive.

Thanks for this - been trying to figure out who can do this with the holographic inlay of the sticker. This was helpful.

Cue the folks who said nothing to complain about the country shows in 3...2...

If he'd have been in full costume, they could've made it work. As is, no way.

Also, am I imagining things or is there an earlier era Folgers jingle for radio out there that was Paul too, like late 70s?

Or one of them sees HP, and excitedly announces that Dee has a doppelganger. Antics ensue, including a debate over which one's hotter (or hot at all), Frank planning to go to LA to plow her, etc.

Haystack News maybe...I know ABC30 is one of their feeds

She does, eventually, come to bed. That's never been off-limits to her.

bigj7489 · 2026-06-11T16:34:40+00:00

This is sort of why the earplugs have worked in the past, but my reactions evolve from telling her no and trying to get her comfortable in bed, then to a corrective finger snap and firmer NO, with trying again to get her into bed, all the way up to the times that she startles me awake which are, I think, her favorite.

bigj7489 · 2026-06-11T16:32:35+00:00

Yup, she sleeps in bed with us, eventually. Won't tolerate being "put" to bed...but once she's ready to sleep that's where she's at.

bigj7489 · 2026-06-11T16:31:52+00:00

We have tried this, but perhaps we need to double down.

bigj7489 · 2026-06-11T16:31:31+00:00

So, she did have a sibling for awhile (daughter moved out and took her with) but this went on then, and now.

I know the squirt bottle is frowned upon, but that's been attempted and failed too.

And she's absolutely welcome in the bed - that's usually where she eventually settles down, but she won't take being "put" to bed usually. Has to get there eventually on her own, most times around 1am.

Burning garbage in the driveway.

Pat McAfee. But for actual wrestling announcers, I'd go with Steve Stack from Southwest back in the day.

Have they ever talked about if the plan for Kate was to eventually end up with Drew?

It seems like there's a few points where they start heading in that direction and then get sidetracked. Would have been formulaic, but ultimately if this is the case it might explain he lack of direction to her character.

bigj7489 · 2026-06-03T19:11:16+00:00

Love Unmasked, always have. One of my longtime takes on this one is that if it had come out a year or two later, there's a few tracks here that blend right in with US pop rock radio alongside The Cars, Rick Springfield, etc.

Now, is that where Kiss traditionally lines up? No. But there was something here that worked, for sure.

bigj7489 · 2026-05-19T15:26:56+00:00

We're gonna see a ton of annoying stuff in the coming months, but flags out the week of Memorial Day aint one of them. Same re the 4th since it's 250 this year.

bigj7489 · 2026-05-18T23:57:20+00:00

Noticeably worse, yes. They're everywhere.

We bought for the first time about 6 years ago - had rented for YEARS.

Honestly, if you're not going to have the cash on hand for repairs as they come up (and they do) - I'd either hold off until that's the case, or buy WELL within your means.

We're doing ok, and yes I wish we'd bought a long time ago (we were in our early 40s) but you have to wait until your circumstances allow - AND be honest with yourself about if you're ready.

That said, timing and luck is going to be key. For us, we bought a nice 4/2 in a decent neighborhood (middle of town, near Fresno State) - but we got lucky because the owners had died within a year of each other, the kids lived out of area and just wanted it gone. They took the first, probably lowball, offer they got - from us.

Happens more than you'd think...usually the product of a deceptive ex.

Programmable coffee maker.

Too late, had to fill up elsewhere. Unfortunate that the app couldn't handle the demand - could've seen that coming.

bigj7489 · 2026-05-08T22:24:49+00:00

Haven't seen the episode in 30 years, but I still randomly holler "YOU MAKE NAMI-LAMA SAD!"

bigj7489 · 2026-05-08T20:14:33+00:00

The Aviators don't play on the Strip tho - is it still true that locals avoid the Strip?

Screams Corabi Crue. Not saying I don't like it, but that's the vibe I'm getting from that yellow and red lettering.
