X2. The Brunswick NC area (Wilmington and south to the state line) is beautiful, family friendly, and very relaxing.

<-- Jealous.

That's probably not a bad price, all things considered. I think the last time I replaced an outdoor unit (~3 ton) it cost me $800 for the unit. Add in the coil and consumables and you are probably at $1200 for parts. If you know somebody with a license that can hook you up and you can sweat...

:ohmy: $2700? Split unit or packaged? If split, both the indoor and outdoor being replaced, or just the outdoor? I may be willing to go the long way to SC this weekend and drop by and give you a quote.

Our IRA's are stock/funds. We have a financial advisor we've used since we started saving for retirement after we got married. I've been very happy with the performance of the funds he has helped us select, and from what I can tell, he doesn't really cost me that much (at least, not more than my...

Combined (wife and I) we put about 25% of our pre-tax gross income in to some sort of savings (retirement, rainy day, etc). We are trying to get to where the wife's paycheck goes completely to either benefits or retirement. We should be there hopefully next year, when she graduates from the...

I moved for work when I graduated college. So can you. Or you can keep making excuses. Your call.

About the only thing I buy at wal-mart is boat supplies. They have a pretty good section (in general, their outdoor sporting goods section is much better than Target, IMHO) and they have the same products I need (oil, etc) as West Marine, at half the price. In general, we do our grocery...

^^ Were you in the convention center this year? I thought the 1 person per table thing was great, but the lighting in the room sucked. But that was a few years ago, they might have improved it since then.

I haven't looked at the brackets (can't from work) Did you win the tiebreaker in the original bracket? If so, congrats!

IMHO, the gas powered models are far superior. Remember to look at both PSI and GPM in comparing models. Some cheaper gas models have as high a PSI as a more expensive model, but a lower GPM, which makes any task take longer. But if budget is more important than time, they will clean just as...

I saw that too, but I don't know how. I have UConn in the Final Four, but losing in the semi. Who knows?

So it looks like Dex and I are tied for first (in the original bracket), even though all our scores are pretty horrible. Does that mean its over?

Well, I've been at work since 5 am this morning. We work 4-tens, so I typically am off on Friday. I'll be here for another few hours today and then we'll be back in tomorrow to finish the job. With the OT I already worked this week (Wed and Thurs were both 14 hour days), it's turning into a very...

Forgot about it until today, and I can't access it from work. Looks like I'm out. But my original Final Four are still alive!

From Vu1's website (granted its marketing stuff, but there is more in depth info on the website): Electron Stimulated Luminescence™ (ESL) Lighting Technology is an entirely new, energy efficient lighting technology. It uses accelerated electrons to stimulate phosphor to create light, making the...

I've done a little research on the ESL bulbs that are in development (www.vu1corporation.com), but I'm not sure about the pricing, and they have been very slow to market. I'd like to pick one up if the A bulb ever comes out, just to see how they work.

We're limited at the ACL to 1 rem (not mrem) a year. The DOE ACL is 2 rem and the DOE limit is 5 rem. Those are all whole body. The extremity limit is something like 50 rem and the pregnant female limit is much lower, although most pregnant women around here self-declare and are moved to a no...

We (Clemson) have to be UAB first. It's been a lot of years since we've won a NCAA Tournament game.
