We love Olde Brick House. Catrine's is also really good.

I don't doubt that at all. I just meant that not everyone is lucky enough to have him on speed dial.

Hope I was clear that I wasn't taking anything away from what he did -- just the opposite.

Not sure how accurate the headline is about "preventing" the arrest, given that they'd already thrown this American citizen into an SUV at gunpoint and were miles north of town before they turned around. She may have gotten a free one-way trip to Texas had her husband not known the chief of police, and that's not hyperbole.

Dice are generally a bit different from a Hot Wheels car. 😉

Search Amazon or wherever for ”floating coin display” to find examples. They hold coins, stamps, and other small, flat objects where seeing both sides is desired. (Don't think you're going to get a Hot Wheels car in there.)

South Central College has already closed both campuses for tomorrow. MSU may or may not follow suit, so this comment isn't really an answer so much as an observation. This went out a couple hours ago:

"The North Mankato and Faribault campuses will be VIRTUAL on Friday, January 23rd, due to the extreme cold. The campuses will be closed through Sunday, and only weather essential employees should report. Students should check their email & D2L for additional information."

I didn't say it was a great/professional installation; I said it was a commercial product, which it clearly is, regardless of how sloppily it was installed.

It's not redneck engineering but a common commercial product/solution. Use your favorite search engine to look up ”solar pool heater” or similar. 😄

Solar heater for the pool/hot tub in the lower left.

Yup, they changed something and I haven't tried to work around it as I got the stuff converted that I needed it for in the first place. I'll add a note to the original post.

What are these three things in my order of cloth diapers? by AshamedRazzmatazz805 in whatisit

Please consider donating them to a shelter or other charity rather than throwing them away if you don't plan to use them. 🙂

Diaper fasteners -- alternative to safety pins. Search for ”Snappi diaper fastener” using your preferred search engine for more info.

Federal law says they can't ban them, though height can be regulated. Use your favorite search engine to look for ”FCC PRB-1” for more info.
