re: Venting dryer vent

I'd consider a heat pump(ventless) dryer under those circumstances. I'm considering one for a house we are buying with laundry room on interior walls.

And for that reason, I'm out.
My hope is an 8pm storm comes through, delays the game, and they're still playing when I wake up at 5am.

Simple test:
Pull the air filter. Spray starter fluid into carb throat while someone turns key/cranks. If it fires, you have a fuel problem. If it doesn't fire, you have a spark problem. Troubleshooting with that info in hand is much easier.

Damn son. Raise that HOC
Lol I like my St.Aug Shaggy. With all the rain I think it had been about 10 days since my last cut. I think I'm cutting at 4" (mower has max height of 5). I wish my whole yard was doing that well, but our dogs have beaten down some other areas.

just bought a Honda gas mower.
It's possible they are just selling existing inventory, or maybe they really did reverse course.
But it's been news for the last year or so that they were stopping production.

Just realized it's been a year that I've had this thing.
Zero complaints at this point. Single lever for the deck height is probably my favorite feature.
Cut wise It's still as good or better than the Honda. I cut tall, wet St.Augustine grass this morning in my backyard. The Honda would have left visible tracks and clumps cutting in these conditions. I did slow the pace down in this area, but the Honda would have clumped no matter.

Ill never understand the idea about putting the water heater in the attic.
No different than HVAC. In a perfect world we would all have a mechanicals room on the ground floor, but that square footage costs real money. For most families they need that square footage for living. While certainly less than ideal, the attic square footage for mechanicals is free.

re: Has anyone ever found a solution for dog piss killing your lawn?

Anybody able to compare the urine damage to St Augustine vs Bermuda? I'm willing to start Bermuda in the dog areas if it fairs better.

Dog urine is acidic. Female dogs pee in one concentrated spot, so it's worse than males. We have 2 new pups, and the one that drinks water doesn't burn the grass, the other one has yellow pee that burns every time.
My current experiment is using granulated lime to lower the PH of entire yard. Hopefully this keeps the slightly acidic urine from burning as bad. It's only been a few days since I put the lime out, so we shall see over the next few days.

If you are near BR, give B&B Faucet Repair on Florida Blvd a try. Odds are good they have new valve stems & seats that will fix your problem.
+1 for B&B. I rebuilt some compression cartridges on faucets similar to the OP just a few weeks ago. B&B had all the parts and preassembled them for me. Skip the big box.

And not to sidetrack, but hopefully this Pope will rescind the celibacy requirement for priests. It is an undeniable factor that, along with others, creates a unique environment within the church conducive to attracting and enabling such behavior.
The pedos don't enter the priesthood to hide anymore. They now happily attend their local LGBT Unitarian church, dress up like women, and play girls sports.

You sure? I know the St. George school district stuff went back to committee, but the Landry Gator program funding has been approved from what I was told.

It looks like Landry got the the full amount of funding he requested for the year, to the tune of 90+ million dollars.
This is interesting, because it may cover more than just the low income applicants for next year. I'm not sure how or if they will prioritize higher earning families for the vouchers. Pro rated would be fair, but who knows.
