That is BRILLIANT. Thanks for sharing. I found a health club near me that offers access several different ways: - Single day use. - punch-card, with 4 days on it - monthly fee (highest cost)(the two above are low priced in hopes of getting new members) - yearly membership fee. BUT, what I...

Isn't there a thread here somewhere on using (paying for) day-use of health clubs? I found a health club near me that offers access several different ways: - Single day use. - punch-card, with 4 days on it - monthly fee (highest cost)(the two above are low priced in hopes of getting new...

I believe they recommend "flushing" the transmission now-a-days, NOT changing the filter & fluid, as you can drain out only a fraction of the tranny fluid. Basically they connect an oil filtration cart to your tranny, and let it run for a long periods, cycle out all the old, replacing it with...

Sounds like you are getting excellent responses to me. Can I add 2 things? 1: that the "hot water bottle" can be much hotter, and keep you warm for longer, if you put it in a wool sock, or other insulating material around it. You can pour VERY hot water, into the bottle, and still not...

Sorry to say that I am not in the loop on this one. But: 1st: a battery powered computer solves this issue, no need for a UPS. I know this first hand hearing the cries of co-workers (all working on their computers) when there is a brief interruption in AC power - while I sit happily using my...

My research (which you should check for accuracy) shows: No taxes on the first $10,000 within a calendar year .... The hows & whys of it: Per lines 40, and 42, the standard deductions and exemptions for a single person is: $6,100 + $3,900 = $10,000 per year un-taxable income. This is...
