I have a kitchen sink problem once, and do the compress air trick (well, I used pressurized water). But as soon as I let go of the seal, the water came out of the drain and shoot all the way up like 3 feet. I call the profession afterward.

You can shut off the engine, and have the steering wheel lock for a few seconds, then turn it to ON (not Start) to unlock the steering wheel. The road is pretty straight, and you may move over a few lanes, but doable.. But the fact of the matter is that we can talk all we want, but when thing...

Do they inspect the property to make sure you don't gut the inside and redo everything? What if there is an "accidental" fire that destroy parts or all of the house under the Mills Act?

The same shift-to-neutral trick also work for the opposite situation. I carpooled with a coworker sometimes and he was driving one day. We were surrounded by cars and trucks near downtown LA, and all of a sudden, his engine just died. He put on the blinker, and you can tell he is a bit panic...

I am looking forward to buying a drive-by-wire car in a few years.

How about a "Triple Thanx" and "Double Thanx" and a "Mega Thanx" button so that some of us don't have to heck the link?

I have two pairs of classmates back when I was in Hong Kong who are twins. In contrast to bk's statement, they were neither good in math nor English/Chinese.

CLR sounds like more potent, but it is just another citric acid (and other acid to cope with rust and lime, etc.) cleaner, but the worst thing, according to the google I did, is that it smells and must used in a well ventilated area. I don't like acetic acid, and i certainly don't like the...

My neigbhor have water softener installed, but he complainted about not feeling "right" when he take shower due to the slimy and feeling that the soap never get risen off completely. I will definitely look into it again when I get my next house.

The biggest enemy is the scale or calcium deposit from the hard water. If I don't completely dry off the sink area after each and every use, in less than a week, it will have crusty deposit on it that warrant the use of industrial dental tool. Seriously, vinegar is a good idea, but I hate...

I noticed there are minor pits and corrosions in the bathroom fixtures. They are Moen and American Standard fixtures. How many years should I expect quality plumbing fixture to last with the hard water that we have around here? Or they usually got replaced due to the changes in...

ES is on the right track. I have a feeling that the missing cats and dogs has very much to do with culinary percularity of the Korean and Chinese ;)

There will be a funeral service for the lady this Sunday in Huntington Beach.

OCR is notorious when it comes to spelling and grammar. They did not hire me for their Chief Editor position because I was over qualified. I feel that the family should give the man a Hummer instead of a gun. This way, he won't get lost around town. And you don't get into as much trouble...

You don't pay for *what*? The DMV certificate, the transmission fee? Last one I went to have a similar statement, but I end up paying for the test even when it failed. He said I can retest it for free one time.

Just declare it as good for the blinds, or that you are one of the First Ladies, and the USPS will ship it for you for free...

If I serve in the jury, the crime of passion BS won't work for me. UCI have a very strict policy for firearm, and you have to premediate to commit a murder to bring a hand gun with you on campus. I won't be qualified to serve on the jury due to my connection with the campus police, however, so...

I think there is some kind of law that make it illegal for HOA to denial home owner from going solar with unreasonable rules, etc., so the nazi problem should not be a concern. I also head that the solar heater is the best way to go, esp. if you have a large pool to heat. There is a lot...
