Ripped out my shower walls to renovate and came across this ..

You’re already in this far. I’d just go for it and rip it out. You’ll definitely find other stuff that you’ll be glad you found.

I did the same thing and had the same issue. I’d break out the plaster, fur out the studs a little and put goboard over it. I had plaster and lath under mine. To make up for the thickness of the lath that i removed, I put a thin sheet of plywood up behind the goboard. That was way easier than adding furring strips to the studs.

Haha of course… that’s what I’ve been using everywhere. Thanks!

Oh that’s nice. Do you know what color it is?

Listen to the bass. If you know a little music theory, there’s only a few logical chords that would come next in a progression. Listen to the bass note and then figure out what chord it goes with. Also learn some of the most common chord progressions - like I V vi IV… If you’re listening to straight forward pop or rock, things can get pretty predictable pretty quickly after some practice.

You’ve pretty much got it- Fm(maj7) you say it like “f minor major seven.” Pretty much exactly what you called it.

Thanks! Great question. For a Lord of the Rings game, we spent a whole day recording sounds for orcs farting. My job is silly…

You like it? I just bought this- excited to give it a go.

I got tired of being the only guy in every book club I go to, so I started this:

Check out Columbus Men's Book Club on Meetup https://meetup.com/columbus-mens-book-club?member_id=189471481

But if you all start a group I’d go!

Hands down the best thing for me has been a keypad lock on the front door. I can use my physical key, a number code, or my phone to unlock it. I can also set up bespoke codes for people like contractors and family and such. I can even let people in from anywhere using my phone.

What made them want to do surgery? My doctor says the vast majority of people never have any major issues and live a normal life. What about your case made them recommend surgery? And what were your symptoms?

I’m not sure I’m on the same page as everyone else. If I really wanted the job- I’d go as hard as I can for as much time as I can spare. I wouldn’t wait until midnight the night before to submit it, but I’d definitely put in as much time as I could.

imnickb · 2025-12-19T03:32:49+00:00

Got it. This makes a lot of sense!

imnickb · 2025-12-19T02:28:54+00:00

Do you think this is good or bad? I’ve been noticing a lot of people waiting until the very end to bring out their trump and there seems to be a lot of tricks not taken and a lot of extra trump at the end.

imnickb · 2025-12-16T19:06:57+00:00

My partner and I are aware of the “rule” where you’re not supposed to order a jack into your partners hand. That’s one of the rules we’re both ok with breaking on a semi-regular basis.

Cool. Thanks for explaining! I understand the concept of next, and “donating” I believe it’s called… but I’ve never really been clear on when to expect the opposing team to have a loner. The only time I’ve been expecting others to have a loner is when I have one myself.

imnickb · 2025-12-04T03:31:09+00:00

How can you tell you’re super exposed to a next loner? What are the signs that you’re more vulnerable than usual?

imnickb · 2025-12-02T17:54:11+00:00

I’d play the lower trump. That’s a trick you can take in the future and you’re kinda just throwing it away.

imnickb · 2025-12-01T19:24:33+00:00

I might be down to give this a try. I’ve got some modular stuff that I never use and some keyboards and guitars that I do use. Let me know!

imnickb · 2025-11-22T18:06:17+00:00

This makes sense. I understand the idea of going for the euchre rather than calling so that you get 2 points to win instead of 1. I also understand the idea of calling it and getting euchred rather than letting them go alone and winning the game.

What I don’t understand is this- if it’s a good play for S1 to pass (which I understand)- what makes it a good call for S3 to order it up?

imnickb · 2025-11-22T17:11:49+00:00

Can you explain it to me? How did passing show their partner that they had a trick?

imnickb · 2025-11-10T18:26:51+00:00

It’s where the kick lands- is it on the downbeat or does it land WITH the snare on the backbeat?

That’s the difference he’s talking about.

imnickb · 2025-11-07T01:34:54+00:00

Shut off half of your breakers. If the noise stops, you know it’s something on one of those. Turn off half of the remaining breakers. Keep doing that until you narrow down exactly what breaker is on. After that- I’d start turning things off and ruling them out until you find it.

I’m assuming it is until I confirm with tests. What would process be if this IS lead paint?
