If you happen to have a bottle of fuel drier/de icer in your garage somewhere.....pour in part of the bottle and let the truck run tonight for 10 or 15 minutes before you go to bed. I've no personal facts one way or another if that's not a good thing to do with E-85 or not, but I would think it wouldn't hurt anything.Quote:

More Ugh!
Drove out to a friend's in E-ville today around 1400. Got stuck behind some joker going 35 up the hill out of Franktown. THIRTY FREAKIN FIVE MPH! Then he would speed up 55-60 in the passing areas and downhill. I finally snapped and took him in themergepassing lane at Flintville and he gave ME a stinkeye as I went past. Prick.
Got home around 2000 after overstaying our intended visit, dropped thedrunksold folks and my wife off at the house (I was stone cold sober DD FWIW), topped off the washer fluid in the car and took out the pile of trash to kill a few minutes, and headed off to pick up a Pizza we had called in.
FYI, it was -16 in Elizabeth (south of town) and -13 on the car reading all the way home.
Papa Johns LOST the pizza that clearly showed was READY in their computer but it was MIA. They remade it quickly. I asked the young dumbbitchblonde TWICE and the dude making it if they had the right ingredients listed on the order. When I opened it to check, the f*ckers messed it up good but it was free by then andwe were all hungry.I was hungry, they were drunk hungry.
On the way home, two blocks from the house, I get stuck behind some jackwad going 10MPH! TEN F*CKING MILES PER HOUR!!!

Well, a mile or so up the highway dude decided he would fully lock up his brakes to "show me". Now I had been up all night plowing and living on a few hours of shitty sleep. Miraculously, my giselle like reflexes kicked in and I was ready to pass and did so. Lucky for both of us as I wasn't expecting him to go full retard and I would have hit him for sure.Quote:

Agreed. Yesterday I drove 1243 miles. Mostly along I-80, which wasn't too bad, but people can be frustrating. As in, there isn't enough Jameson in the world to fix it, frustrating.Quote:

GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH WHY DO THEY MAKE SMOKE DETECTORS CHIRP IN A FREQUENCY RANGE THAT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO DIRECTIONALLY DETECT????????????? We have 5 smoke detectors in our upstairs. Eventually, I just gave up and replaced all the batteries. Fuck you Kiddie and your shitty chirping smoke detectors..[Mad]
I feel your pain, HB. We just buy the damn 9v batteries in bulk from Sam's and rage for a while.
Have yourself some nice red meat and throw on a good violent video (my go-to DVD is Starship Troopers) and feel better. Look at it this way: you don't have to deal with it again for at least a year. :)
Should have had your insurance company send you batteries in the mail. :p
I replaced all my batteries and they're STILL chirping. Did some checking and it may be time to buy new ones. House is 13 years old and they're the originals. Screw central wired smoke alarms.
Once a detector is bad, they chirp forever to let you know it's time to replace them.
Its awful nice of them to do that.
I've been reading the tragic story about the young mother that was accidentally shot in a Walmart by her 2 year old that reached into her purse and found her handgun. Apparently the child never actually pulled it out of the purse but somehow pulled the trigger and it went off and shot the mother. The media is spinning the story that guns are so dangerous that a 2 year old can shoot someone just by touching it.
Why in the hell was it loose in her purse? Why wasn't it in a holster that covers the trigger? Carrying a gun loose in a backpack or purse is just asking for an accidental discharge.
My condolences to the family, but WTF?!
What is the point of being hooked up to power if they still drain a 9V every year? At $3 a pop, that's $24/yr just for batteries for a device that is ALREADY POWERED. [facepalm]
Darwin strikes again... So sad.Quote:
