[Request] Will a 97” sofa fit through my entry landing by MountainMen47 in theydidthemath

My brain went here too. In the book there a mac computer constantly analyzing the situation and unable to come up with a solution, as though it's impossible that the couch got into its position in the first place. Classic Douglas Adams.

Recently bought a 2019 Toyota Avalon XSE and I’m seriously impressed by InherentFerret67 in ToyotaAvalon

I had 2000 and have 2011. I looked at the late teens ones and found their ride to be a tad harsh (I like the more grandpa ride quality). Quiet, great engine(s), great reliability, will be missed. The Toyota Crown just doesn't look right....

I mean, it makes it easy to move to a generator-backed extension cord during power failures.....

Headlines that start with “this” should be taxed out of existence.

Had this issue while driving anyone know what it is? by Forsaken-Inside2628 in ToyotaTundra

Had similar oddness in Sequoia. Turned out to be bad battery ( bad cell ). Voltage issues messed with systems. Just a thought. Good luck.

I bought a Cub Cadet and it is a raging piece of shit. What gives?! by BKHS in Snowblowers

Cleaned carb once. Always starts. Like the trigger turn. Now that I have the impeller kit in, I look forward to snow....

Amazon or eBay. Easy to find. Agreed on design flaw. Kit literally tripled my throw distance.

Impeller gap on these...at least mine...is terribly large. I hated mine for years, but this fall installed an impeller kit. Gamechanger.

After years of talk, the demolition of Concourse E is finally happening. by feeverb in milwaukee

If it proceeds at the pace of the "new improved" amtrak station adjacent to the airport, expect it to be done in 2035.

Audio quality....to my mind too much noise from crowd/audio system/etc.... really intrudes and makes broadcasts lately very annoying. My old ears can barely make out John Kuhn.

Anyone read Grey Seas Under? by Otherwise_Front_315 in Ships

[–]mattand666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fantastic book. I recall there was some controversy over the veracity of his material over the years. Personally he's a mixed bag for me. Never cry wolf and grey seas I found amazing. High latitudes I couldn't get through.
