    I think Cam is over the top when he celebrates. It borders on disrespect for the opponent. Certainly his right ... BUT

    He surely could use some lessons in socially acceptable behavior.

    The Denver D is almost as awesome as that of the Steel Curtain of the 70's.

    Steel Curtain is exactly what came to mind for me last night

    Hopefully he will learn a bit of humility. He has the youth, the athleticism, the talent but not the maturity. He could be a powerhouse if he hones it all together.

    I don't care for the moments individuals need to celebrate just doing their jobs. It's a team sport, so act like a team! Teams do need leaders, including those who are willing set an example by diving in and recovering their own fumbles! :picard: I couldn't believe what I saw last night, what a prima donna. This could have been his only shot at winning something this big and he turned and ran away. He and his team mates looked shellshocked at times.

    Looking at the extended forecast and it looks like I'll be doing 2+ bags a day for the foreseeable future. Next Sunday night into Monday is supposed to be -9, Mon. into Tues. -12. What happened to El Nino?

    Time will tell...but I have to strongly disagree! We'll see how many of the Broncos will be considered one of the best ever to play their position!

    That being said, they definitely dominated/won the game for Denver! The Broncos could have won woth Johnny Football in instead of Peyton!

    Which Cyber Power unit do you have? This is what I see on Amazon:

    CP1500AVRLCD $140 simulated sine wave
    CP1500PFCLCD $204 pure sine wave

    And the $20,000 question because I keep reading conflicting info. Will either of these units take "dirty" generator power and clean/condition it so the stove will work fine with it, or will it simply drop the dirty power and resort to powering the stove with its own battery? I suspect the latter is true, but would like to confirm.

    I'll be interested in hearing the answer to this myself.

    CP1500PFCLCD $204 pure sine wave
    Is the one I have
    If the generator is too dirty it will switch to battery. The ones that actively filter the power have a name that escapes me at the moment. Line interactive maybe?? Those are considerably more expensive.

    Thanks for confirming. Appreciate it. I will grab the same one you have at some point (hopefully on sale).

    Similar forecast here sub. Overnight lows are teens and single digits through next Monday, then back up in the twenties. On Saturday night it's supposed to get down to -5.

    Double conversion was the word I was looking for. Those units take ac, convert it to dc, and then convert it back to ac. Probably cost 2x as much

    This is from another thread in this forum -

    "A basic PC UPS will clean up the power like a filter to make a nice sine wave that is safe for electronics....."

    A little contradictory.
