    It would have been better if I had full use of the left paw. The damm stove requires long handled socket set or three hands not one and three quarters.

    There is very little room. I'll get it but it will take me twice as long as it should, muscles haven't been used in that manner for a couple years.

    Nice !!

    Last nights newscast on WMUR, they addressed this and told the viewers to contact Direct TV, not the station. They also mentioned that some are getting credits or free programming because of the lack of promised stations to the customers.

    Sounds like it worked.

    I got an Exide Extreme last year at BJ's. Good to kn ow about the Neverstarts as they were called in the past.

    My only issue with the Exide Extreme was that it is endorsed by Nascar. My concern here is that they only care if it lasts up to 500 miles :rofl: :lol:

    Smart-Wally World charges almost nothing for service when you buy the part there. Pretty sure it because they know you will wandering the store for an hour or two. My honey's Chevy truck is a royal PITA to replace headlamps. VIP wanted 1-1.5 hours labor when it was 5 degrees last winter. Wally World charged 7 dollars and fity cents when we bought the lamp there.

    Wish I knew this when I replaced my battery. Easy to get to but is sits really low and you cannot get your hands on it to pull it out. I didnt have a battery puller so I just used vise grips on each terminal as handles and hoped the terminals would hold the weight of the battery-they did.

    The new battery has a built in handle to drop it in and lift it out. GENIUS :yes:

    Well, at least now you won't have to wait for a spare if the "repaired" one in the stove ever kicks the bucket. :doh:

    Wife complaining of being too uncomfortable to do anything, I am doing all the chores. Breakfast, was coffee, cheese omelets, and bacon. Lunch was homemade chili and beans over a bed of lettuce. Supper will be a pork roast and veggies. (crock pot) . Did two loads of wash including bedding, Two loads of dishes that had accumulated. Still have to wash the kitchen floor and change the cat boxes. At least the pets are being good while fly around on my broom.

    thanks. I have to check the battery. Can't recall if it is the original or if I changed it out last year.

    Right now it is hardwired but I do have a battery pack for it - just not all the "D" batteries it needs. And really, there is an outlet 1.5' to the right of the window, so don't really need it. Actually, when I ordered the battery pack I thought I was buying the remote (which the description said it lacked) :doh:. Well, the curtain rod included the remote, so I was completely cofuseled when I was ordering :emb:
