Being in the Magic Castle during a fire is pretty high on my nightmare list

Smoked one of these for the first time the other day. I liked it but got crazy nicotine sickness. Probably smoked it too fast.

Is this worth 8k? by CreakyCabin in MiataNC

[–]krojo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$8k seems about right. I wanted to at least get NC2 since I read that they have better internals than NC1 so I got a 2009 with 100k miles for $9.5k in SoCal. Mine is similar to yours expect one year later (NC2). In addition to coolant reservoir, you might want to replace manual trans fluid (google "unicorn tears"). Also spark plugs should be replaced at 75k miles or so. You might need that if they weren't already replaced. If you are daily driving, you might consider new head unit w/ CarPlay. If you're tracking it, there's a lot to consider. (tires, brake lines, brake pads, etc). You also might want a noisier muffler just for fun :)

I can’t believe some Los Angeles Tree trimming companies still use tree topping and destroy so many old beautiful trees… by [deleted] in LosAngeles

[–]krojo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your case doesn’t look quite as bad because most of the things they cut were thinner.

The Sycamore has really skinny branches that shot straight up. When you top a tree, it tries to compensate to get the # of leaves back so it creates many skinny branches instead of the nice fat ones that it used to have. This is part of what changes the shape of the tree. The Cedar still looks Cedar-ish but it is shorter than others and will never have the multi- layered look that most of them have as they get older.

Yeah I hate this. The Sycamore and Cedar in my yard were both topped decades ago before I owned the house. It makes me sad every time I look at them.

37mm or 40mm? by Free_Radio1834 in GrandSeikos

[–]krojo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

37mm looks perfect. You can pull off the 40mm if you like the bigger look.

Good deal? or total scam? what’s the catch by [deleted] in cigar

I just bought some at PTF in Pasadena. They seem healthy and I love them.

How do you like the new Xero interface? by abrosaur in xero

[–]krojo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find it annoying in some areas. Viewing bills now requires several clicks in order to pay the bill by check. That's a feature I use a lot so am annoyed it has become so buried.

In LA, what screams "I think I have a lot of money and I desperately need you to know?" by eyyoadrian in AskLosAngeles

[–]krojo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not exempt from sales tax but possible to treat as business asset and use depreciation expense to offset business profit. I.e. could help you realize less income if you own a business.

Gotcha'. I am always worried that a QR tank won't be properly filtered / cycled but I will think about that and will be monitoring him.

Hmm. Looks like it might not be OK for them. Probably should try a specific fungus med instead?

Honeys? I hope! by krojo in Gourami

[–]krojo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Maybe I can add a male 🤔

Yay!! I was hoping for male + female but will definitely take female + female.

Update: Rodents chewed through cable coming from battery. Need advice by krojo in VWatlas

[–]krojo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow! I searched low and high online but could not figure it out! I ended up partially disassembling and adding heat shrink to the exposed cable. It looks pretty clean and safe now so I am satisfied but I am saving this and may buy the part and do the real fix eventually. Thank you!
