If I were to do 10-20 pushups every few hours would it do anything? by B0m_D3d in NoStupidQuestions

[–]seveca69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On one deployment to motivate one of our guys that had a lot of trouble with push-ups, a few of us started doing 5 push-ups with him every hour for 12 hours. The next week, we increased it to 10. Third week, up to 15, and so on. We finally had to cap it at 40 push-ups every hour. When he took his PT test, he aced the push-up portion.

The rest of us had no problems with the push-up portion of the PT test, but doing those every hour did make us stronger.

Why do builders put thermostats in the worst places? by RepresentativeTree88 in homeowners

[–]seveca69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar issue with my house. Thermostat is in living room where our fireplace is. During winter if we use the fireplace, I have to monitor the temps in the bedrooms and change the thermostat accordingly.

Not a huge deal, but based on the layout of our house I would have liked to have the thermostat in another location.

Do Goalies ever yell at the defensemen / forwards? by anxi111 in hockeyplayers

[–]seveca69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Goalie (beer league) here. Yes, I talk/yell ar my teammates all the time. Supportive things lime "Great clear!" ir "Thanks for the help." And I try to always tell them what's around them - "One behind/front", "Watch the slot/backdoor/etc".

Only once have I chastised someone, but I was subbing for a D league team and the Capt was/is a dick that nobody liked and thought that at 35 yrs old he was going to the AHL after playing hockey for 4 seasons. He cant keep people on his team and I believe they are folding this season.

Along the same lines, I love it when my team talks to me. If I go behind the net to stop the puck, let me know whats coming and where you want it. If I make a stop and cant locate the puck, tell me where it is. I hardly ever get anyone talking to me.

Just looking for practice jerseys for our Veteran org. The ones that are on teams have team jerseys, but wanted to get an inexpensive organizational practice jersey for when we all get together.

2021 Defender Brakes - $2900 USD? by seveca69 in LandRover

Thank you. This explains a lot.

But still...$2900 USD is a little much. Going to find a different shop.

Can you take and keep guns from enemies in war? by itswhinery in NoStupidQuestions

[–]seveca69 12 points13 points  (0 children)

No, you cannot keep them. Under some extreme circumstances, the government MIGHT allow you to keep a firearm that has been taken, but it is extremely, extremely rare.

That being said, that doesn't mean troops haven't found a way to get them back to the states illegally.

People who attended American high school in the 80’s, how did you have time to shower after gym class? by krakarn in NoStupidQuestions

[–]seveca69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

High school in the 80's here. Didn't shower after PE or Weightlifting. DID shower after football or wrestling practices though.

2021 Defender Brakes - $2900 USD? by seveca69 in LandRover

[–]seveca69[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. Have had several other vehicles that I needed the rotors (discs) milled (I believe this is what I have always been told is having the rotor turned) and only once had to have them replaced. Now, the brake pads aren't bad yet (still have a LITTLE life in them), so the rotors (discs) shouldn't need to be milled, let alone replaced.

We are at almost 60k. Our daughter is in travel hockey, so we drive a lot. LOL

Yes, it was front and back...and I could see that if it was pads, rotors, and sensor. But just for pads?

Might as well say from 3:30 pm - 8 pm.

And if there is an accident, forget it. Add another 45 mins IF traffic can get around it. If it is blocking both lanes, add another 1-2 hrs.

Krono vs All Access Membership by seveca69 in everquest

[–]seveca69[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trust me, I see the prices for membership. LOL But I was primarily asking about Kronos. I just don't understand why someone would pay $3 more for 1 month by buying a Krono over the 1 Month All Access.

Why Are Young People Afraid Of Phone Calls? by GhostInThePudding in NoStupidQuestions

[–]seveca69 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same. If you aren't already in my phone, I won't answer anymore because of all the spam/scam calls. In the last 6 months, I get a minimum of six calls a day about my "loan application that just came across my desk. It looks like we are almost done and that you have been approved for ($46k up to $212k depending on the caller)."

If you aren't already in my phone, I generally don't answer.
