That's just about the biggest decision I have. I've grown very accustomed to the cable-dvr, and I don't like change. But everyone who has a satellite swears by it.

We switched from cable to satalite and overall I like it better. The one thing I miss about cable though is the on demand service.

I'd rather have our cable back but we live out in the middle of nowhere and have no choice. For some reason, we don't get local channels with our satellite service. Kinda sucks.

We bought our first house in the early spring before long the grass was growing like crazy. I didn't have a mower. A neighbor came over one time when I was outside and started talking to me. He asked if my mower was broken I told him no don't have one. He offered to lend me his I said no thanks. You should have seen his face.

Recently there was a big todo because some guy in this rich neighborhood in the city was GASP cutting his grass without wearing a shirt and drinking beer.

Love it.

We lived in our family house from 1970 (when I was one) til the early 90s. I remember my dad telling me about our next door neighbor. "The day we moved in, he knocked on our door and said 'if you ever need anything, just ask.' That was the last time I ever spoke to him."

You just reminded me that I meant to mow my lawn today. And now I have. (I'm one of those Calvinists who evaluates his neighbours by how faithful they are to mowing their lawn and shoveling their walk in winter. It's one of the few traits that I inherited from my dad.)

I'd be pretty fucking low on your list then. It isn't always intentional but between work and rainy days I can go a long time between mows. And then when you finally have a day off AND it isn't shitty weather why would I want to mow the fucking lawn? I once had the idea of getting a big tin of wild flower seeds and spreading it over the front lawn, I was vetoed.

if you want the best dvr, sign up for Dish, but be aware that you'll have to pay a boatload for local hd sports. i was suggesting you get free tv. that includes real hd, not hd lite. there should be antennas on several roofs in your area. you might get away with an indoor antenna even.

the company that makes the Dish dvr is going to start selling those to the public. no monthly charges.

You try mowing the lawn in 115 heat index swamp-nasty weather.

OK, so I painted last weekend, so this weekend we pulled the tape off, and there's quite a bit of fuckups, ya know, paint on the wood floor. I rubbed paint thinner on it, nothing. How do you get paint off of wood?

By the way, we're going on vacation Friday (which we scheduled months in advance, there's no way we would have if we knew it was coinciding with the house) and then moving in immediately upon our return (weekend of 7/11) We could move in now, but we don't wanna put or stuff in there, then leave for a week.

Assuming that the wood is varnished, a razor blade'll do the job. If it's soaked in, you'll probably need some chemical stripper. It'll take any wood stain out, too, tho.
