Fuck!
Thanks BBSue. I feel a little better about the price now. I did get a discount because I told him I'd pay cash. Now I have to fUCKING use some of my stash, but that's what it's there for, I guess........burning man money and car repairs. (oh, it's a 2003 Yukon XL. The a/c mechanic called it the "ugly" compressor.)

Prius? PRIUS??!!
Allright, CBA, Now yer fucking asking fer it!! ))grins((
Prius may get the miles, but ya can't haul tools and motorcycles with one... ever tow a trailer with onna them things? Thought not. And just wait until you get to replace all them anti-disposable batteries in 10 years...
Oh yeah. That fucking BATTERY issue. How many of these Prius drivers gave *that* bit of pollution (and the 10 grand bill for replacement) any thought? Not like the old days where ya can flush out a battery and refill the thing, no sirree, ya gotta throw them old ones in the landfill and buy NEW ONES!
Try throwing your car battery in th e trash can. YOU KNOW what will happen. Now multiply that times whatever to get the, what, 247-500 volt system they have? Brilliant! (Yeah - they're higher voltage now than the power in the old truck shop - yeesh!!!)
If they made a pickup version, with permanent batteries (like the old 6 volt Exides that would last 40 years or more) then we'll talk. But with the fucking POS batteries nowdays - yuck.
Having said all that - our MV is electric. But we're working on that part! Next - converting the eu-2000 to peanut oil. After that - a mobyl chernobyl to tow behind us for power.

i fucking feel your dishwasher pain! fuck the dishwasher and all fucking appliances!
my fucking dishwasher is also broken. It fucking fills the bottom with water and then it fucking doesn't do a fucking thing. So I end up with the same fucking bunch of dirty plates with a fucking pool of water that doesn't fucking drain!
now that i fucking think about it, the fucking garbage disposal also stopped fucking working and my fucking icecube maker stopped fucking working too.

Your drain is plugged, look under your sink, here should be a soft rubber, or white vinyl hose connected to the plumbing. It may or may not feed into your disposal. The line is probably plugged, or your "P" trap is also plugged,karr wrote:i fucking feel your dishwasher pain! fuck the dishwasher and all fucking appliances!

clean em both out. if that does not work, then your water pump on your pump is not pumping. could be many reasons for that, belts slipped, wajax coupling sheared, no power to pump motor etc...
later

It does sound like a plug. Could be the hose or it could even just be stuff on the screen inside the fucking dishwasher itself which is easy to check and rectify.mdmf007 wrote:Your drain is plugged, look under your sink, here should be a soft rubber, or white vinyl hose connected to the plumbing.

Sometimes disposals (fucking or otherwise) get stuck. Sometimes there is an Allen wrench socket on the bottom you can use to rotate the spindle to free it up.
I don't know fuckall about icemakers. But you can just keep the gin in the freezer.

So what's the etiquette when husband & wife are barbers and she's a much better barber than him and she's got a customer while husband is reading the paper I really would rather wait for her even as he sits there steaming and no, I'm not looking at your wife THAT WAY she's just a much better barber than you, a much, much better barber, she takes her time and does a thorough job your work looks like you use an axe, and then you leave my hair (oh, there's so little of it left, but I like what I have) smelling of sewing machine oil, I wish you'd wipe off the clippers after you lubricate them, dammit I'm not looking at your wife THAT WAY, didn't I say she's a much better barber than you, and when you're done you give me the change with a flourish, yeah, I know you're upset I didn't tip but I had to put my head in the sink when I got to work to rinse all the loose stuff out that you don't bother cleaning up but she always does, and I'm not looking at her THAT WAY, dammit, I just want a good haircut which I didn't get from you today, I miss my old barbers, Doc, Solly and Felix they're dead or in Florida, which is almost the same and Mrs Ha gave a good haircut when she bought Felix's shop after he retired but she doesn't cut hair herself anymore since she renamed the place "Hollywood UniSex" and got herself a whole string of shops reeking of ghastly chemicals, dammit all I want is a good haircut. Fuck!

The etiquette is to wait for your haircutter to finish and then take the chair after she's done with that customer. She knows your hair, she's your fucking hairhacker, and if he can't accept that to keep the doors of their shop open, then he's an idiot.Bin Noddin wrote:So what's the etiquette when husband & wife are barbers and she's a much better barber than him and she's got a customer while husband is reading the paper I really would rather wait for her even as he sits there steaming and no, I'm not looking at your wife THAT WAY she's just a much better barber ...
...all I want is a good haircut. Fuck!
The reason he's reading paper is he's a shitty butcher, er, barber, otherwise they'd be lining up to visit his chair as well. Either way it's not YOUR problem. SHe's not your date, she's a professional. SHe's your hairhacker, people wait for their hairhacker just like they make appointments for other stuff. (I have (2) people who touch my hair - one here, one in San Antonio, Tx. NO ONE ELSE touches my hair. Period. Nt worth the hassle or fucking pain. The times they try I tell them no, I want so and so, if they can't or won't, then I'll go elsewhere. And have. (Yeah - I *did* fly 2000 miles for a hairdo last year. ANd you think YOU got probs??!)
OK, scenario. Your burner truck blows. You have a cousin who is a shitty mechanic in the shop in town. There is also a freaking miracle worker in the same shop. Would you have your fucked up wrench cousin break the car and cost you more just to make him happy, or hold your ground, get it fixed right the first time, so you don't get strancded in the desert, eh?

I know, Sue. Just that this morning I had to hurry so HE got the job. Its not horrible, just not as nice as hers would have been (now that I got that rant off my chest). And of course, fuck!
I used to cut my wife's hair because she (like many Thai people) is very sensitive about who touches her head. Talk about a customer from hell... Thank goodness she found that nice Mrs. Hyder.
