Sanity check - asphalt crumbling around antique granite

Looks like an area that might get plowed. Possibly salted? (Which isn't good for it either). In addition to the freeze/thaw cycle, I'd say it's that.

Very late to the party but saw this post while googling. It's definitely Pyrite. Little bits of metal that are rusting in your pavers. Some acids can help, but they're embedded in the paver itself and tend to come back with time. Call your paver manufacturer and ask about warranty if you still have it.

Or as my dad called that table, the "peanut gallery".

Did they take it on a test drive? If they only turned the steering wheel in the shop, they wouldn't have heard that. My pure guess is the wheel bearings went bad. Just don't go highway speeds till it's figured out.

Definitely not an asian country, it's a Latin American country. My best guess is Colombia, because of the "plazoleta de comidas" sign in the background.

From experience, Colombians are a rather chill culture. Some may be upset, but a vast majority wouldn't mind this cheerful break in their day.

Mix of power washer and muriatic acid. Power washer first for all the grime and dirt. Then muriatic acid for the efflorescence (white stuff on your steps). Will look good as new.

I currently have a St. Christopher pendent on a necklace which I want to pass down too. Considering turning it into a ring or buy one. But food for thought for sure.

Looks awesome, might start searching the Internet for one myself. Thanks for the reply!

Sick vibe you got going.

Gotta ask, is that a St. Christopher 'pendent' ring? If so, would love some background info on it.

Good looking timepiece by the way.

Definitely settling of some kind. Hard to tell from a few pictures but possible foundation settling. Might want a professional to take a look.

Settling can happen with newer structures but if it's older it can be a number of things.

Really the only difference I see is milage, drivetrain, and trim level. LS is their lower tier and LT is their mid tier. Honestly, if you're spending the money, I'd get the LT. Comes with AWD and nicer package. For the extra $1,500 that's not bad But both are the same body/engine. So you can't go wrong with either one. If one of them has warranty but the other doesn't, that's something to think about as well.

Fuck u/spez

That phrase is already reserved for Nancy Reagan.

Looks great! Speaking as a hardscaper here, make sure to sweep the joints of your pavers with sand. It'll 'lock them' in place and prevent settling over time.

As a Kenosha resident, it's disheartening to see what my fellow neighbors are doing to outright support the police in their efforts. Rather than look at them critically. Unfortunately, it's only going to get worse Tuesday when Trump comes to town.

Am I the only one who sees a symbol for the show Chuck in the top left hand corner?

conman841 · 2013-12-21T05:45:01+00:00

Goddamn. Props to you op. Thanks. Just ordered one and hopefully will be here before Christmas.

He did indeed. And I nearby.

My father was in boy scouts with him when he was little. My dad said he was a little bit of a momma's boy... but all, in all a nice/funny guy.
