explain please?

you put a heating pad in the fridge to make it work better?

What I do when the temps get cold I simply plug in an aquarium heater pad and place it below the vegetable trays at the bottom of the fridge and it tricks the fridge into running when the temps in the garage get really cold. Now this is probably not advisable as aquarium heater pads are meant to be submerged in water. But I roll the dice and as I say so far so good with no fires.
We plan to get a garage ready freezer when this one packs up.

zaphod · October 17

yeah, we love our stand up freezer in the garage. (and the bar sized drink fridge beside it).

thanks for the explanation.

Blue Jays 0-2, sad and disappointed 😞

2-2, feeling better.

Glad to see Scherzer back! Just saw the clip where he stayed in the game for another out! I wish she still pitched for us!

@CPFC1905, can I get the same game synopsis for my son’s U11 travel club tourney this weekend? That would be amazing

Some say it’s too soon in the season, others that the experience alone will consolidate the promising performance we’ve seen in practice. Nonetheless - the u11 tourney is here and we need to all buckle in. The location is in Waze, snacks and folding chairs loaded, several weather options catered for with clothing too.

Pre-match will be the familiar pattern of eager coaches, some of whom too eager to examine the tourney specific rules and fixtures combinations which are added to Copilot and Gemini immediately to plot the optimal route to glory. Goal difference, goals scored, head to head results - which is better?

The squad gradually assemble, and confidence rises as 90% arrive on time and even those with complex access arrangements or competing social events make it.

We can agree the early rounds will be laid back fun and the players being rotated, as much to keep them engaged and within view as for tactical reasons. The deeper in to the rounds we go, the more the aroma / temptation of very well organised parents’ hot and cold food will pervade. Has that second Yeti also got coffee in it, or something more fortifying?

Goals, knocks, questionable decisions, tears and poorly-timed sugar rushes increasingly take their total amongst the parents. While the players carry on running around and having fun.

Experience suggests two factors for success; home advantage, or, a player who looks like they drove themselves to the venue and is taller than the referee.

The road warriors pulled it out in two grueling matches on the pitch. First game yielded a 4-1W with the only opposing goal came from a questionable PK with a do over?!? Second game we had a clean sheet 5-0 W. Finals tomorrow afternoon!

Mad Max was a beast! Down 2-3 thanks to brilliant manager, fingers crossed ;(

Used these:

to transform these (10"x15" max size for my vp215):

into these:

At our local restaurant supply place, the 10x15 comes in box of 1000, most of the smaller ones come in box of 3000! This give me the flexibility to replenish any size as they run low.

Ozzie_Isaac · October 19

Flew to Cozumel today with my partner and some friends. Spending the week diving - already got in a shore twilight dive to shake out some new gear and get prepped for the week!

Nursing my worst burn (to date) from one of my BGEs. Had poppers going on a CI half plate and some beets in foil, cactus pads, and tomatillos on the coals. Made a quick jump to move a popper that was on fire and now I look like a witch with warts.

johnmitchell · October 19

@BeanHead. That certainly is a bad burn, on the bright side with a little makeup you could scare the kids when they reach into the Halloween candy bowl 😂

Gulfcoastguy · October 19

Yeah I was thinking that the timing was almost right. A ratty black dress, a straw broom. A peaked hat….

Canugghead · October 19

Caveman fingerling potato.
Pro tip: next time pre prick to prevent blistering or bursting 😂

BeanHead · October 19

Luckily we live enough in the woods to avoid the need to have candy ready for Halloween, but now I feel the need for a costume. Me laughing at the fingerling potato joke…😂.

Just got a fairly large box in the mail labeled hazardous materials ground-ship only. Home made address label, No return that I could see at first. The usps label had the departing zip code which started with 4 and so does mine so that’s a clue. @kl8ton thank for the gift of the electric grease gun and daisy wheel! Rest assured that grease gun will visit every grease nipple that I can find on the farm!
