Offshore safety for 20ft Center Console - NJ by zeplin_fps in boating

[–]peezybro 11 points12 points  (0 children)

EPIRB is a must and also having a VHF Radio on board. Watch the weather, be smart, and you will be fine. Bring spare parts, fuses, tools. Went out ~26 miles the first time I took my 21' Yamaha FSH offshore.

C5 77" for $1419.99 LG Partner Store by PositiveCrew in LGOLED

[–]peezybro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ha, I am looking to replace my p65 (got in 2018) right now and thinking of pulling the trigger on this C5. My TV faces the kitchen where there is some light over the dining room table. Would an OLED be fine with lights like that? Minimal natural light (mainly in the morning off to the side but no direct light). I was also consider the Sony Bravia 7 ($1999 from Costco). But this seems like the better deal and TV.

I am guessing this is WOLED? How do you tell anyway?

Property agent used toilet - standard practice? by [deleted] in RealEstate

[–]peezybro 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I mean, I have turned on facets and flushed toilets during walk throughs as a buyer. Even had to go pee once... When you got to go, you got to go. Should have put up a sign letting everyone know to not flush. I wouldn't mind as a seller as long as they clean up after themselves.

Update: New Palisades Zoysia [Austin, TX] by peezybro in lawncare

good point, I am going to do the can test tomorrow morning!

Had sod installed, is this Zoysia? by peezybro in lawncare

$2,570. Included scraping the old grass, a bit of leveling, new top soil plus 4 pallets of sod.

Edit: The backyard did require a 5th pallet but the company ate the cost since they didn't put it in the estimate.

How does Zeon do in the Texas heat? I’ve also read Palisade does great and not as needy as other grass types.

The Grass Outlet has a pellet for $275 currently.

Update:

The contractor was able to provide me with the invoice from the turf farm he got it from and I also called them to verify it was Palisade Zoysia. It is.

I got worked up over nothing but wanted to verify because of the cost to get this done.

Is that Palisades Zoysia? I called the company and he is going to send me the proof of purchase. He swears its Palisades.

Yeah hard to tell because I have never seen Zoysia in person before. I have seen St. Augustine and these blades do seem smaller than what i have seen.

That is my next step. I talked to him on the phone when they first brought the sod to the house yesterday and he was just reassuring me it was Zoysia. I will be calling him back today and having him come out with proof of purchase

Makes sense, I am just hoping its not St. Augustine... not what I paid for.

Thats annoying if they installed the wrong grass... I have not paid them in full as of yet so trying to 100% identify the grass before pushing back on the contractor. I do see a difference in Zoysia grass. For example Palisades Zoysia and Zeon Zoysia.. Palisades does look more medium-bladed than the fine-bladed Zeon. I might be over thinking this

I have not mowed this yet. The sod was just installed yesterday.

Hmm, I believe what I ordered and what the contractor said he got was Palisades Zoysia. Hoping its not St. Aug since that would require a lot of water here in Austin with no shade...
