[quote]I still plug tires. I am 72 and have NEVER had a plug fail. Just sayin[/quote] I’ve plugged tires ever since I worked in my dad’s shop as a 12 yo too. I was surprised that the plug failed too. I’m 41 and he makes 70 this year. He doesn’t do tire repairs any more and will farm them out...

There is no positive stop for low and simmer options, so if you go too low your heat turns off and you have to rel...

[quote]ERs should be able to turn away people who don’t need immediate medical assistance.[/quote] They can do this. Ask that is required is a medical screening exam to determine if there is an emergency. The problem comes from having providers willing to screen and discharge. Too much liabilit...

I’ve used it in driveway cracks, but find it is only temporary. Maybe I didn’t use it enough. ...

Prayers bother!! My mom is in the battle now. She finished chemo and has the surgery to remove both breasts and some lymph nodes. Surgery went well and they said everything is gone. She continues to have targeted infusions (not chemo) every three weeks till the end of the year and will start radi...

It’s definitely doable as many people on this board have done it and people all over the world do it. The key is having a partner willing to make the same sacrifices to take care of the children. I started grad school with a new born and a two year old. We both worked full time while I was in school...
