Well, I've done brakes a few times before, but right now, I really don't have the time and to try that would end up "costing" more than taking the hit. Six of one...

The LED is getting plenty of power, apparently what happens with these is a controller (probably a circuit) in the light assembly goes bad. I'm sure it is just a few molecules of solder that got some condensation on it...

Had I not driven the hell out of the car, it would still be under its 10year/100k mile warranty. But it's up at 145k now.

Your armpit troll probably died.

This is leading to a Right Guard joke, isn't it?

Hey, Jim--it's because we're special!

(don't know why that's happened to you -- can tell you why only my left one sweats tho -- scar tissue covers the right pit)

Give me a replacement for "trusting you to pull out in time" and I'll clear that up.

Thank you sir. An armpit troll is a meme I came up with @ 5:13pm 11/10/10

I stained/sealed the deck and the two different cans very evidently contain entirely different types and colors of stain. I was hoping they'd look more similar as they dried, but no, they don't. yes, i should have "mixed them" but I wasn't entirely sure I'd even need the second can...... and I thought it would just be a slight shade difference at worst. wrong. (They are the same brand, same color, but a couple of years apart... the 3/4 can left from last time wasn't quite enough....) the old one is darker and shiny, the new one is light and matt.

groove scorched. but at least the fucker's ready for winter, even if it looks horrible. (The join is weird because I worked so as to do the bit the cats use most first, while I was there to defend it, and then i did the farthest bits and worked in towards the door.....)

it's really fucked up.

There's that pesky old learning curve for the sadder, but wiser, monster...
