Just finished replacing a busted water line on the outside spicket. Turned it on day before and it blew the copper. Luckily there was a shut off valve tight before it. Replaced it all with galvanized and new shut-off and spicket. $30 and it's done. Wife wanted it fixed. She coouldnt wash her car yesterday.
now, my next project is switching out the screen on my Dell Laptop. Won another on Ebay and gonna see if I am up to the challenge. Never been down this road before.

Seems that I am capable of installing a new screen and keyboard. Yay for me. Now that it tis fixed, I don't know what to do with it. Either sell it or keep it as a backup. But, I also have a Toshiba that needs a screen. So one has to go.

Afternoon guys. The models are coming together and agree that tomorrow will be a VERY bumpy day. Chance for a major severe weather outbreak including Tornadoes. Greatest risk will be Middle TN and South Central KY.

I'm gonna go ahead and grab a bite to eat and see about changing the headlight in the Camaro.

I filled up Last week and am only averaging 13.5mpg. It has all been city driving and I am down to 1/4 tank. I thought these V8's got better mileage. 13.5 sucks.
