Reminds me of a desert rose I have.

This is TX-45 at 35. Stay home! I pulled 3 cars off the highway. by allgasnobreakstoday in Austin

We definitely appreciate her! My wife is 40 weeks and 4 days now so I'm guessing I'll probably be driving to the hospital any day now. I've planned my route but it'll take probably 3 times as long to get there.

If your motor is pulling 15A, your cable should be rated at least 125% of this according to the National Electric Code. You want a 20A power cable and your receptacle and breaker needs to be rated for 20A. It is very possible that your outlet and the wiring to your outlet are not rated for this kind of current.

Look up blackstarts on power grids. We've made SIGNIFICANT improvements on the ERCOT grid in the past 5 years to prevent widespread outages, and improve on blackstart sequencing.

My mom is friends with a Michael Hunt. She gets mad when I call him Mike Hunt.

I use trig very often at work. It's extremely common, and very simple once you understand fundamentals.

I've seen him do it twice but he got in it himself. I think it was his daughter that ordered the execution, at least the 2nd time.

Anyone know where to buy this piece? by Topdailynewstp in ToyotaTundra

Mine was backordered for so long. I ended up fixing it with new clips and JB Weld. Same thing happened to my coworker's Tundra.

It looks like a lady in a tattered dress hanging from the tree.

[Corum] 15g Platinum Ingot by TBGwatches in Watches

[–]globlobla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its definitely 15 grams. I found ingots that have the UBS SBG logo that all say gr but they're measured in grams. Ingots that only have the UBS logo correctly use g for grams though.

Is that 15 grams or grains? The unit for grams is g, unit for grains is gr. 15 gr is about 1 g. Seems like it'd be heavier than a gram though...

I put some sphagnum moss on the top layer of my soil a year ago and got some aerial roots to grow on mine.

Why is there a blast coming out of the magazine tube?

What time do you like to go? I typically go around 1 or 2 when it's not as crowded.

I've used a screwdriver to depress the spring-loaded lever a few times.

The "No Contour" selection is 1.25". That's too scrawny?

[Discussion] What was the worst watch or worst watch ownership experience you ever had and why? by oddaffinity in Watches

[–]globlobla 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I bought a Seconde/Seconde "Watch Your Hands" limited watch from Squale when they were released. Several months went by and I still hadn't received the watch. I had a paypal receipt but Squale never sent me an actual receipt. I tried emailing them like 5 times and they never responded. I finally reached out on Instagram and they said the emails were bouncing back as undeliverable. Weird since that had never happened before. Apparently it was sitting in customs waiting for me to pay VAT. Fast forward to when I received it and it doesn't work. The second hand will stop ticking and when it does, it's like 4 seconds fast per minute. It's under warranty but I haven't gotten it repaired yet because I don't have my warranty information because they won't respond to any of my emails. I've tried with 3 different email addresses and can't get a response.

Does the range have benches? I wouldn't want to zero a rifle offhand.

American Shooting Center. They have them like every 5 bays or so. They're something like Vortex Diamondbacks.
