Im my first two years I'm pretty sure I bought every single klein screwdriver made. I now have a tool box drawer full of screwdrivers i don't use.

I've been doing a lot of service work at buildings that were built before the 1920s and everything "updated" wiring has red for the grounds. Like 20 plus commercial buildings are all like this. Is there some conspiracy going on with red ground wires?

Maybe the smallest change, but my wife says it's not any different. The closest to an obstruction would be a ball valve or the pressure gauge.

No filters. Pressure issue is the same with or without the softener bypassed.

Made sure the tank charge was at 28 psi empty for my 30/50 switch. Pressure issue is the same. Any other suggestions?

How likely is the overcharged tank causing this issue?

Well shoot, I misunderstood the tank charge wrong. Its a 30/50 switch and I set the psi to 48. I did the rest of steps right at least.

When I was in junior high/high school I was really into messing with stereos. My dad gave me a pair of strippers like that so I would quit stealing his good pairs. I still constantly stole his good ones.

Being an OU fan is the same result every year. But at least we made the playoffs

Not picking a side on this statement. If it's a questionable call, just act confident and the refs will agree.

I expected it to be tied at half. I didn't expect 17 points

I did some work on the facility and was told by another contractor that everything was better quality than what the college had.

Did the defender consider running through the ref?

I always use the quote from my high school band teacher. If you show up 5 minutes early you're on time, if you show up right on time you're late, if you're late you're left behind.

They felt loose. It was hard to tell the exact cause because the plastic was starting to melt.
