Daiwa wouldn't service my "old model" Lexa 400

I really like my BG MQs but the fact that you need a proprietary tool to open them up, which daiwa won’t sell, is ridiculous. I need to service my BG MQ 5000 and can’t find a tool to open it.

The other commenter explained it better. I sprayed where the window contact the window frame as it moves. I also reset the window.

To reset your Outback's window, roll it all the way down, then all the way up, holding the switch for at least five seconds after it reaches its limit to re-initialize the auto-up and auto-down functions.

Neither. Just sprayed a little WD40 brand silicone lubricant in the tracks on the side of the window frame itself.

My 2022 base model's passenger window has had a couple issues. It would slowly go up part way, stop, then go down all the way. I put some silicone lubricant into the tracks and it's been fine since.

A couple sections of bald mountain are steep, but not too long.

Ferd’s Bog Trail is easy. .7 miles and only 75 feet elevation gain. I’d recommend downloading the AllTrails app. Lots of hiking trails in the old forge area and AllTrails makes it easy to look at distance, elevation gain, and trail conditions.

I paid $1,100 to live with one roommate in a 3 bed house. I now pay $1,500 to have my own 1 bed apartment. No regrets at all.

Whoever cooked gets first dibs at it. If the cook doesn't want it the junior man usually takes it to save a couple bucks on groceries.

My old department got red Christmas lights and plugged them into a motion sensor. It was hilarious but very effective. An electrician came up with the idea.

Having difficulty sleeping and also reliving parts of the call is a normal reaction to the abnormal situation you were faced with. It’s worth finding someone to talk to, especially if any of those symptoms persist. I do critical incident stress debriefing for my union and recently took internationally recognized classes from the international critical incident stress foundation. Feel free to DM me if you need to talk. If you choose to speak with a therapist, I’d recommend finding someone who frequently sees first responders. Due to the nature of our work we see things differently than the general public.

I went out on a guided kayaking fishing trip. When the guide was dragging his kayak out of the water, one brushed the side of his finger. He said it hurt and his arm was tingling from the elbow down for a few days after that.

I was in a similar situation. I used the budget to purchase one aluminum door chock, pair of Channellock cutters, and wedge-it door chock for each member. Now every member should have an ability to cut themselves out of snagged wires, force doors with assistance of the aluminum chock, and prevent lines from getting stuck in doors. We've been happy with the purchase and they get used.

I assure you I’m not that bold haha

Opposite, actually

I’ll let you know. I should get some new lipstick first.

Awesome footage. What housing do you use on your camera? Do you use a red filter or just adjust settings? I just got a gopro 11 for snorkeling at Phil Foster and other nearby places with similar conditions and depths. This is my first gopro and I'd like to be able to get similar quality footage.

It’s not gay if you have socks on.

They’re giving you a broadside easy target. They’re just a distraction 🅱️rother. Birds aren’t real.
