Aunties always matter!!! So do dual pane windows, putting that a/c in made one of My dual pane windows into a single pane, converting another single pane aluminum framed window into a dual pane vinyl window would make My front room cooler again, but I'd need about $350, since the swamp cooler can't overcome 105F and 10% humidity outside, even with a pump upgrade to 360gph from 255gph(gallons per hour, of water), as that is making the water in My cold water pipes very very warm, almost hot... And I do need to replace the insulation on some copper pipes outside(about $120 for materials and a heater to fix, maybe another $130), I need to do both and yet I'm not sure I can without doing what some said I shouldn't and that I decided I wouldn't do, so what do I do??? Loan or gofundme? This is guess work, except on the insulation. The T1 Trust, PRR T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, 1 of America's First HST's |

My cat Grace threw up today, the temp was 88F close to the front door, over at the cooler the temp was 86F, now that I closed down the cooler, started the a/c and closed the window, the inside temp is now 83F, I used 3 paper towels and some clorox type cleaner on the carpet(loosely white) and the carpet is cleaned up.

I went to Rochester NY in July and stayed in the Hilton for the first time (somebody else set that up or I would have been looking for the motel 6), and when I walked into my room I thought I walked into a meat locker. The temperature was set to 68 degrees. I bumped the temperature up to a tolerable 78 degrees but it took all nigh for the room to warm up because the outside temperature was so mild. Lucky for me the bed had a really thick quilt that I could stay warm under. The next morning I was in the room when the cleaning lady showed up and the first thing she did was question the room temperature and she thought the AC was broken. I explained that I was from Arizona and 68 degrees was just to cold. What I don't understand is the rest of the hotel was kept closer to 76 degrees so why where the rooms so cold? On the other hand, I now understand why people stay at the Hilton. I could get used to the better class hotels. |

The first time we went to Hawaii we splurged ($400 a night), and stayed at the Mauna Lani Bay resort. Talk about luxury! Walk out of the room onto the beach. The center of the Hotel is a tropical atrium with a meandering waterway through it with black tip sharks. Outside there is a lagoon with sting rays. Amazing. If you get the chance do it! http://www.maunalani.com/ "Sour Grapes make a bitter Whine." <(0)> |

Vic, I am not sure where you get your prices from. Replacing the foam on the pipping at most is $10. You shop on a champgne budget. I am on a budget too, but I plan ahead. NOT mons by mons, but for the future. Pluto will always be a planet to me. Seti Ambassador Not to late to order an Anni Shirt |

Poo happens Chris. He's probably bored with little to do. I have been there myself. But minus the Internet. At least he has a outlet to chat to the world with. |

Amazon, there it's $17.75(anyone) or $9.18(Prime customers only) at the moment. Home Depot $7.83(Armaflex 1 in. x 6 ft. Rubber Self-Seal Pipe Wrap Insulation, price includes 8% tax) per 6 ft length, unless you want the cheap stuff, mind you the pipe is exposed to the sun too.

Doesn't everybody note the details when someone/something voms all over the place? I thought it was standard procedure, temp, humidity, thread count of the carpet etc... Member of the People Encouraging Niceness In Society club. |
