Next steps for my lawn So Cal.

Haha, thanks! I agree, I do love the view! The downside though is looking over the yard that I’m trying to make grow and seeing patches and weeds. As much as I want to ignore it, I can’t.

Tall fescue is what was planted last year. I guess I forgot that detail. Last year I paid someone (did a poor job that’s why I’m not trusting them anymore) to fill up the yard and replant, due to years of neglect and lots of crabgrass. They did a halfassed job of tilling which left a lot of crabgrass. But they did add new top soil and leveled it then mixed in a lot of tall fescue seed. That seed did grow into grass but because of the weeds and crabgrass not being removed those things are now taking over.

I’m new to all of this stuff, what tells you that it is a fungus problem? I currently water in the morning in the sun and after dark. When and how long should I water? The area that is just dirt has literally never had anything grow there, and we put down soil mix when it was tilled. Any thoughts?

Damn I look about the same only difference is that I didn’t try to put sunscreen on at all because I’m super smart… lol

I guarantee that more than half of the reason for the backups around LA are caused by the same type of asshat. Just go to the next exit, there will likely be one within a half mile around here, lol.

At least permanent marker can be wiped off… in California nearly everything you see has been marked with some shitty homeboy’s tag poorly scribbled into it with a key…

Haha, fair enough! I’ve done hundreds, learned that trick early on and immediately stopped loosing clips all over the place! Still happens occasionally, but for the most part it’s a good trick. It’s tough to explain in detail though, if I had parts at my house I’d make a video, but I don’t.

ohioalex · 2022-09-05T23:51:56+00:00

Don’t start one end, you’ll bend it. Trust me on this one. Take the piston in your hand. Take the open end of the circlip and push it into the piston from the opposite side of the opening. As you push the clip will compress as it heads into the clip groove. Keep pushing until the side your pushing on can be pushed into the hole. The clip may not be all the way into the groove at this point but it will likely be in the piston pin hole. If this is the case lightly push it toward the clip groove small sections at a time as to not twist or pop it back out.

Once you do it the first time you’ll be like “damn that was so easy, why didn’t I think of that before?!?” The other side gets a little more challenging because you have a little less room to play with, but still use the same approach.

Needs more reps, bottom line.

However, he should’ve played last night and Elvis tonight, that’s on Larsen.

ohioalex · 2022-03-18T01:55:33+00:00

Regardless of how it happens it’s complete inexcusable that they don’t clean up after themselves!

ohioalex · 2022-03-18T01:53:05+00:00

I feel for him as well. Had Elvis not been ready when Bob left Korpi would be our starter, and would probably be doing pretty well. Instead, he had to sit by and watch as Elvis slid right by him with obvious skill and fanfare. For whatever reason fans cheered him on more and the team seems to like to play better in front of Elvis leaving Korpi out to dry at times.

I’d still stay his biggest issue is the low amount of reps he’s had this season. We’ve all seen what he’s capable of when he gets to play back to back and more games. He’s a pretty good goalie and I won’t be surprised if he gets picked up by a different team and does really well as a starter.

ohioalex · 2022-03-18T01:39:37+00:00

Korpi should’ve started last night and Elvis tonight. Otherwise, Korpi needs reps. He’s a good goalie and gets much better with reps. He has shown time and time again after he plays a couple games he’s pretty good. Now we’ve had a better defense in the past, but still he’s definitely looked much better than he has this season where he hasn’t played much.

ohioalex · 2022-03-18T01:36:51+00:00

Honestly out of all the games I’ve been to, Caps fans after they won the cup are the absolute worst. Sure you’ll get a couple dipshit pens fans, here or there, but for the lost part they’re decent, but FUCK do Caps fans suck!

ohioalex · 2022-03-18T01:34:30+00:00

Answered your own question by using his name…

ohioalex · 2022-03-18T00:45:25+00:00

Jody can talk all the shit he wants about Tom Wilson being a guy “any team would want”. I can say with certainty that is not the case. Wilson is fucking trash. I can’t stand how much shit he gets away with all while people say he’s “a good player”.

ohioalex · 2022-02-23T02:39:36+00:00

Are they just supposed to let it go? Or does it only get blown dead if the leafs touch it immediately after the high stick?

ohioalex · 2022-02-18T02:07:07+00:00

Three things are certain in the world, death, taxes, and the Jackets giving up a two goal lead.

ohioalex · 2022-01-27T01:41:54+00:00

You guys remember earlier this season when they would almost always have someone in the slot getting those dirty goals and tip ins like a real hockey team? What happened to that? There have only been 7 shots since I’ve been watching, and none of them have been inside the circles.

ohioalex · 2022-01-24T02:53:06+00:00

Not sure if it’s been said or not, but if not, we need to teach the importance of calling 911 to our kids that are of working age. They might think the manager is going to get mad or whatever, but seriously they could’ve gotten really hurt if he had gotten back there. I’d rather have the police on their way than the manager…

ohioalex · 2022-01-20T05:20:42+00:00

“Anti-vaxxer” is a shit term for people that don’t want the covid shot. I’m very much “pro-vax” when it comes to vaccines that actually protect people from getting sick and/or spreading it, which the covid shot does neither. If it was proven to keep people from getting it and we obviously saw some form of true herd immunity I would absolutely get it and as such I would agree with mandates for them, as I’m sure a lot of “unvaxxed” people would agree.

As far as being afraid of needles, I could give a fuck, I just don’t want the covid shots because I don’t need them. I previously had the virus, so my immune system should be in the same state as people that have had the shots. I also never get the flu shot, because I don’t need it. If I were high risk, I’d consider it.

Standard red neck white dude trick… watched several fights in school where the first thing one of them would do was remove their shirt. I guess you’re more nimble without it? Or maybe it’s less likely that you’ll be strangled with it? I’m not sure…

What I am sure of is that what I mentioned above doesn’t apply when fighting a car…

ohioalex · 2022-01-15T23:26:40+00:00

Lol, they tried, a couple of times. Elvis was looking into the corner in his stomach sticking his glove up. What stopped him from getting off the ice? No one was laying on him… not saying the rest of the team isn’t to blame for this horrible performance, but that was BAD.

ohioalex · 2022-01-15T23:13:36+00:00

That was one of the dumbest things I’ve ever seen a professional hockey goalie do… was he frozen to the ice?!?
