I don't keg, and I'm full of prescription pain meds for the moment, so feel free to ignore me. When I visit my daughter in Oklahoma City, I drive the old highways and back roads. When she visits me in Arkansas, she drives the Interstate. We both get where we are going and are happy with the...

Shelter set up before the rain : just the best! Setting up in the rain : just the worst, wish we'd stayed home!

33-1/3%, assuming one of the answers is correct. I think.

I don't discount the value of good plumbing. Sewers and clean water save more lives than doctors, IMO. It's the bookkeeping aspect that doesn't make sense.

How does the plumbing maintenance account affect health insurance premiums? I think this is a silly joke. Then again, I drive a Jeep built by these people. Their collective mind was definitely on something other than building cars.

Probably shipped via DHL. They don't seem to know about reading the labels. . .

Dreads are funny, whoever wears them. Didn't Eddie Murphy refer to them as 's**tlocks' in one of his movies?

I've never seen a security guard in a McDonald's. I think if I ever do, I'll get back in my car and drive a couple of states farther.

This is why I only watch broadcast tv. It takes a couple of minutes to check 14 channels and see that there is bugger all on. 200 channels would waste too much time.

I didn't know Professor Umbridge had a chihuahua.

This doesn't disturb me as much as the fact that coaches and testing officials were open to taking the bribes. Much worse in my opinion, they were in positions of trust.

I leave the lid off until boiling begins. Then adjust the power for a gentle boil, cover, and start the steam slayer. Barring an electronic control failure, a boil-over just isn't going to happen.

I'm so accustomed to noisy work spaces I didn't even consider the sound level. Since one of my goals in going electric is to get rid of the burner noise, I feel really stupid right now. Thanks, Bobby! [emoji53]

My local climate is just as you describe. I've always enjoyed brewing outdoors in the spring and fall, but it's often pure misery in summer and winter. That's why I'd like to have both options available. If I could only choose one, it would be the condenser, since it is good regardless of...

If I were starting with a clean sheet of paper, I'd provide for both. I don't see a down side to good ventilation, the issues come with trying to retrofit it. The plumbing for the steam slayer is minimal, so why not? I'm trying to squeeze a brewery into my too-small laundry room, so I'm...

The laws of thermodynamics, per Robert Heinlein. (I think) 1. You can't win. 2. You can't break even. 3. You can't get out of the game.

Tesla did win. He just didn't get paid for it. He sold his AC patents to George Westinghouse for a tiny fraction of their value.

Certainly you could make it work. Would it have any advantage over the steam slayer? Just off the top of my head, I'd say no. My experience is limited to steam propulsion plants on board ship. Lots of auxiliary machinery required to support the condenser systems. Steam air ejector to...

I just heard the double-click sound of clearing a pair of tongs for action.

Naw, I just figured they were filled with the Spirit. Or something. I don't criticize their faith, or their desire to do good in the world. I just want to be left alone concerning spiritual matters.
