Cancer is pretty crazy stuff. Watching Uber wealthy people like Jobs and Limbaugh get taken down by it goes to show you can’t buy your way out of it.

We don’t really beat them for recruits but Nebraska and Iowa have been who we tussle with the most for the recruits we want.
Also Minnesota, and I get the feeling that Illinois will become more prominent in Kansas City.
Damn yea Bert is going to dip into KC I bet. Stanford keeps fighting us for OL, they need to knock that crap off.

Hope you and your family are staying safe AST. This has moved from inconvenience to perilous really quickly for Texans. To your point I think ERCOT will have to change coming out of this.

« on: February 15, 2021, 04:45:12 PM »Correct. Can't put those behind drywall.Luckily the pipes that would be a problem this time broke like 2 or 3 years ago when we had an extended 0ish time period. Got them fixed and added some electric pipe heaters that kick on automatically. Seems to be holding up.
Tell me more about electric pipe heaters, so I can follow in your footsteps. My pipe is still exposed and the drywall is off so the world is my oyster.
I rent, so the landlord did it, but basically something like this.
He built the laundry room literally on the back deck, so these pipes just have some batt insulation between them and the outside world. I don't know if you'd want to put these in the wall.

I'd foam the cavity. Batt sucks when it's compressed behind pipes.

Can I put pipe sleeve insulation over what I can get to or is that asking for trouble?

I’m guessing the 5 of us who live here probably wouldn’t have saved much energy by cutting off.

« on: February 15, 2021, 01:41:59 PM »I'm familiar with yeet, but could you please define cappin'?
short form of "high cappin" which was used in the 80's to describe some one who lies about their social status or one who flaunt's arogantly brand new merchandise but is in debt. now-a-days its basically used to describe a liar but it still refers to he old meaning from time to time

« on: February 15, 2021, 01:17:21 PM »I have two teens, and I am resisting the adoption of some of the new lingo. My kids, probably just to humor me, do not use much of the new lingo at home with me, but I hear their friends use it, so I know that they must use it to. Many of these make me very uncomfortable. Some examples include, but are not limited to:
- low key: This was used frequently by old people before being adopted by young people. The old people would use it to describe a quiet function, for example. Now it seems to be used interchangeably with "kind of" or "sort of." This one probably should not bother me, because "kind of" and "sort of" aren't very pretty phrases themselves.
- a minute: Used interchangeably with "a while." I detest this one, and hate even more that I will probably end up using it someday. Crap.
- extra: Used interchangeable with "overkill," or "over the top." Again, I shouldn't really complain about this one, because it's no worse than the phrases it replaces, but change is hard.
- wait: Used to start an interjection where you ask someone to clarify something. It has always been used this way, but was formerly limited to higher priority items. Now it seems to be used by young people to start any sort of clarifying interjection. "Wait, what flavor of jelly do you have?"
- basic: Mostly a negative description of something simple or plain. I refuse to use this.
- slaps: "Good," "Excellent," "Terrific." I come from a generation that started using the word "Bad" to mean good, so I shouldn't bitch about this one. Still doesn't sit right with me tho.
- banger: "good song." Might be applied to more than songs, but that's all I have heard it used to describe. Meh, I don't hate it, but would feel silly using it. I will probably adopt this one before the others on this list tho.
There are loads of others, but this is all I can think of right now.

Add Yeet and Cappin to the list
