I had the radiator re-cored last fall, and ran plain water through it to clean the sludge out. I had run it, drained and refilled, and run it a few times. I meant to drain it one last time and fill with antifreeze before winter, then forgot.

Mmmmm . . . . . . . bummer.

An expensive oversight.

Sounds like you have Bob's (and my) disease.

CRS (can't remember stuff)?

Nah.

I just got sidetracked while getting ready for the foot surgery last November.

Hi Bob!
Felt sorry for you since you never get called anything but a grumpy old man.

robtcorl · 05-30-2019, 12:36 PM

Maybe it has to be bold

OK, the first one went bold after a bit, but my phone didn't ring.

I don't think it supports talking to yourself, @grumpy old man; @robtcorl

No one here ever calls you grumpy.

You're just another face in the crowd @robtcorl.

Good morning all. So the kitchen folks are lined up for the new place, as is the hardwood guy. Next...hmmm, might order a dumpster. Those folks smoked (and not Bob's kind of smoking) in their house so I gotta rip out all the carpets and any hanging tile ceilings. It's going to be a busy summer!

Oh, hope you'll get rid of the nasty stink. Should be doable.

We specifically wanted a place that needs nothing done. Part of the reason we're moving is to get away from having to renovate.

Humble but lazy.
