Looks like a cross between Steve Buscemi and Bruce Dern that crashed into each other while running down cement steps.

Just because you live in an RV doesn't mean you don't have an address.

You can still own your land, have a mailbox, etc.

The Hunt - Released on FreeVee/Prime » Post #1

Crazy wild movie. It was to be released in 2022 but was banned in the USA due to the recent mass killings at that time.

I watched 'The Hunt' yesterday.

My idea of living in an RV is to own my land first. Buy a quarter acre lot. Place RV on it. Have hook ups to water, electric, internet. Have mailbox and address. Have a garage for extra things like washer and dryer, gold cart, storage. Drive away any time but drive back any time.

I still consider doing it. I keep downsizing.

First you have to define the words.

Alien/Alian? 1. a foreign-born resident who has not been naturalized and who owes allegiance to another country. 2. a foreigner.

Super Natural? Supernatural refers to phenomena or entities that are beyond the laws of nature.

God? the supreme or ultimate reality: such as. a. : the Being perfect in power, wisdom, and goodness who is worshipped (as in Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and Hinduism) as creator and ruler of the universe.

Universe? The universe is all of space and time and their contents. It comprises all of existence, any fundamental interaction, physical process and physical constant ...

Observable Universe? The “observable universe” is the region of space that humans can actually or theoretically observe with the aid of technology.

So the problem is with the last one. 'Observable Universe' because it fools people.

Science fools people because most people do not know what science is. Science is mostly comprised of theory. Theory is a little closer than an 'educated guess'. Science is not the catch all. In reality, science tells us nothing about the 4th one 'Universe'. It tells us nothing because it knows nothing. It's not even a real possibility to take an educated guess.

You have no idea what is on the other side of the curtain. For all we know, God is behind the curtain. You can call it God or the creator or whatever word you want to use, super natural, alian, alien, not of this world, not in this universe, behind a door we don't see but the FACT remains, there is more evidence there is a God than there is not.

PS and there are plenty of scientist that believe God does exist

Well Darkstar2, don't take it so seriously.

I like summer. I like the long days. I like warm sunny weather and nice warm breezy nights. The agricultural point is common sense but there are foods that can be grown in cooler weather and of course there is such a thing as green houses, to say the least.

There doesn't seem to be a way to get away from tornadoes in the US. Washington State, would be ones best bet since no tornadoes there BUT it has strong potential for earthquakes.

It is absolutely shocking to see towns wiped out by tornadoes. They look worse than if a bomb hit. It's one reason I moved but Tennessee isn't a lot better than Kentucky. The tornado ally is changing here due to weather patterns, making Ky more in the ally than ever before.

I still consider selling everything and buying an RV. When the weather says tornado in your area, just turn the key and head down the road somewhere else.

You answered your own question Darkstar2.

I don't know that the guy charged anything to approve the wiring. If he did, I don't remember.

I did not have Roto-Rooter do the water heater install. I only got a quote.

The water heater I got, was the same that Roto-Rooter would have purchased.

I had to have a tall one due to the location. The old one was wider but too wide really.

Water heaters may last a very long time if one is either fortunate or has maintained it well. You can't tell by looking at a water heater how long it is going to last. It can be difficult to maintain them. The anode rod can be impossible to remove on newer models and some brands. They do that so you can't remove them so they can sell you more water heaters. The ones you can remove, may be difficult to get the lug off. Plus, it's a hassle. You have to release some water to reduce the pressure. Then of course, regular flushing helps in maintenance. But you know what, years ago no one ever thought to do that and water heaters usually last 20 or more years.

Warranties over here are generally 6 years. Kind of dumb when you think about a water heater that is to last 12 years to have a 6 year warranty. They do also have options for 12 year warranty. The warranties are really rather useless unless you have an issue within the first year of purchase.

Cost of a water heater varies with size, brand, type. Tankless water heaters are gaining popularity but they are more expensive and I have not heard many good things about them.

Couple of older movies » Post #1

Sat Apr 27, 2024 13:58 in General Talk

I watched a couple of older movies recently on Prime. Both I had watched years ago when they were released. Watched them again since I didn't remember them entirely.

Disturbia - This one may not be on Prime any more since it was listed as leaving prime in 7 days. If you see it listed, watch it quick before they remove it.

The Perfect Host - It's free at present on Prime.

I said summer.

If I chose any other month, I'd possibly starve to death.

Darkstar2, a lot is all about what you are use to.

Air conditioning is a new invention. In many Southern USA States, there are some houses with very large ceilings. The reason they were built with high ceilings was to allow the heat to rise above in order to stay cooler at ground level. You'd also find many fruit cellars, that kept foods cool and dry in addition to extending the life of the food.

I can't sleep when it's the least bit hot. Before air conditioning, people slept no matter how hot it was. They wore long dresses, long sleeves, suits, etc in the hot humid days of summer.

The old water heater worked fine. The key word in that sentence is 'old'.

Quote:How much did you pay ? It's a rather simple job especially if you have existing pies.

If I had known all I needed was some pies, I would have gladly baked a few. ahahahahaha

I sold my new home a few months ago and downsized to an older home. I've been doing some upgrades. The water heater was 12 years old. That's about the standard life span of a water heater over here. It's possible it could have lasted longer. A well known plumbing biz 'Roto-Rooter' quoted at $1,729.00. I went with a local small family plumbing biz and paid $1,158.00. That's for the new water heater, pan, install, everything.

Water heaters are somewhat complicated. I have an electric water heater. A gas water heater involves much more work.

Australia, the plumbing may be different for faucet connections. Over here, I would simply turn the water connection off, remove the old faucets, remove the water lines from under the sink, screw/replace with the new water lines under the sink, attached to the new faucets, and turn the water back on. Normally you will have cut offs under the sinks to turn the water off to that sink. That would be in the form of a handle or a knob that you either flip up or down or turn left or right to disconnect and connect the water flow. I've used a hole saw to cut out additional holes for at the sink when needed such as for dishwasher, sprayer, or soap dispenser. Changing out faucets in sinks, is very easy. The problem might come into play if it is a shower/bath faucet without a good access panel and no shut offs.....you'd have to shut the water off at the main.

You may have forgotten, my husband was a contractor. He built houses. We built our own house. I learned a lot from him over the years. Altho he was not a licensed plumber, he could install water heaters. Altho he wasn't a licensed electrician, he could run wires. In the USA many States require a license for work such as water heater installation and electrical wiring. He did the work when we built our house and simply had a licensed plumber and licensed electrician approve the work.

I could have changed the faucet for you Tasmanian Ape Man.

Funny I should read about your plumbing. I had plumbers come out today to install a new water heater.

Yeah, if we are smart we'll dig a hole and line it with can food and a can opener, a blanket and a pillow, lots of bottled water, and climb in.

About the only one I used any more is PaidViewPoint because it is legit, simple, and fast. It's nothing like the survey programs per se. It's more like a b c or 1 2 3. You fill in your profile when you join and that's it unless you need to update something over time. They will send an email from time to time to let you know you have a survey but it's best to log in several times per day to see if there is one or more you can do. At first it seems funny because you only get paid a dime. But it doesn't take long and you will get surveys that are .29 cents, .49 cents, .79 cents, etc. The first cash out you do is $10 accumulation but after that, you can cash out every time you have a balance of $5. Several cash out options including PayPal. Surveys are mostly toothpaste, dish soaps, laundry soaps, weed killer, food.....real every day stuff that people use and national brands.

You been saying that for years, Darkstar2. Still there are these survey programs most of which are about as good as nothing.

I've been meaning to ask, if that other big survey PTC program is still functioning. I don't even remember the name. I was not a member of it. It was the big one that members would blow money on buying sign ups.

Actually everyone has dreams unless they are brain dead.

If you search google you'll read people usually have 4 to 6 dreams per night.

However, in college in some psych classes, I was told people tend to have over 50 dreams per night. That is brief spurts.
