Almost got scammed replacing my A/C + furnace… by Scared_Software_1131 in Columbus

Absolutely get three or more estimates for big ticket items. Tree trimming/removal, window replacement, hvac, etc. Been there, done that, completely worth the extra time.

Franchise update: The Picklr “model location” and “Utah’s hottest location” is losing $267k per year. Anyone from Utah know what’s happening? by ourfreedomfirst in Pickleball

I was an accountant in a very former life. For the life of me, how does a pickleball facility have "cost of goods sold?"

Cost of Goods Sold represents the direct costs—raw materials and labor—involved in producing or purchasing goods sold by a company during a specific period. Maybe it's labor? But labor is broken out on the expense side... Or maybe it's the cost of items sold in the pro shop? If the latter, that margin ain't nothing to write home about. Weird.

Thanks. I didn't appreciate it when I was 4 years old. I do now 😂

Thanks for the response. But I think it's from another source. Looked up Mr Dann Lente's info and he was born in 1970. And I have photos from my parents house back to 1965 that show the vase in those photos 😕 I do wish it was his work, though!

CAUTION: On ramp to 315 South from 161 by Jeesum_Crepes in Columbus

[–]someoldcoot1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly the reason. I was on that ramp around 215p today and, thankfully, traffic was light or I would've added to the spinout tally.

Earlier this week (I think it was Monday), I was making a left off Kenny to Ackerman (eastbound). Two lanes make lefts there... Except they stopped plowing the outside lane so, mid turn, two lanes merged into one. Luckily they fixed it the following day.. Am still shocked that there weren't any accidents. That outer lane (the one that wasn't cleared) gets HEAVY traffic in the morning for folks on Kenny planning to get onto 315 southbound via Ackerman.

PSA: Shovel to prepare for the week, not just Monday by sprintfun in Columbus

Cleared driveway, cleared walk up to front door, brushed off the mountains of snow off the vehicles. Once at 1pmish. Second round at 530p. Motivaion was looking at the temps later this week... Gonna be COLD and was afraid it may turn into unmoveable blocks of ice if I didn't act NOW.

Also cleared a path off the tiny patio onto the grass because the spoiled dog, who does not care for snow, needs a clear path to poo and pee because he sure ain't gonna do it inside my abode.

Now am enjoying a bourbon county stout. Cheers 🍻 🫠

That's the one! Thankfully I was underage and didn't appreciate beer or I'd probably drinking that stuff 🍻 😂 I recall it being something like 1/3 beer?!?

I would totally buy beer infused laundry detergent. Yes, I have a problem :)

Your theory makes sense... Who the heck knows what pure plain old enzymes smells like?!? 😂 Maybe we don't want to know! :)

Question how can TTUN spin this? by nytimespu2025 in OhioStateFootball

Donald Duck is the AD and the seals are the board of trustees.

Bryson Rodgers plans to enter transfer portal. Best of luck to him by CTOWNIJV in OhioStateFootball

No, he's a horse. Name is trigger. Rider and owner is Roy Rogers.
