Happy Birthday, Stephen. :prettyprincess: Have a great year!

If you are going to do more opamp swapping, you might see about putting a socket in rather than solder the new one.

Sounds really good, Shelly. I have to report what I'm not eating. I bought a rib eye steak from TJ's yesterday. It smelled really bad when I opened the packaging tonight. I went ahead and grilled it in the hope it would get better. It didn't. So I'm eating grilled potatoes, jalapenos and green beans.

Congrats, Justin.

Happy Birthday, Jeff! :prettyprincess:

Happy Birthday! :prettyprincess:

More this!

Happy Birthday, Mike :dan: Have a great year.

A quick report back. I've used both new pans, the small one to fry eggs and the large one for an omelet. In both cases I used a little butter to coat the pan. In both cases the eggs cooked nicely and there was absolutely no sticking. They are a large improvement over the non-stick pan they replaced. I'm happy with their performance. I've done some research and it does appear that these pans do contain PTFE. So I'm only going to use them for low to medium heat cooking. I'll keep my old Calphalon pans for the high heat stuff. Non-stick won't be needed there anyway.

Yes, I used a "drain tool". It was a pair of channel locks turned upside down. I tried to turn it with just my hands and broke one of the cross hair members. I'll buy a drain tool today and try again tomorrow. My plan is to apply some heat to the drain and then try with the drain tool after a small cooling time. The tiler is going to float the tile. Otherwise I'd give your suggestion a try. Lastly, I demo'ed the drywall out to the stud. About 18" down from the ceiling, I measured the distance from the exposed stud to the next, covered stud. Then I added 7/8" to put a cut right in the middle of the 2x4. I drew a perpendicular line to that measurement and made a ceiling to floor cut along the line. My cut came out basically perpendicular. Unfortunately, unlike all the other exposed studs, this on is not perpendicular. At the ceiling, 1/4" of the stud is exposed. At 18" down from the ceiling where I measured, it's right in the middle of the stud. At the floor, there is a 1 5/8" gap from the drywall to the stud. That's how much it leans. Nothing like good old American craftsmanship, and this was in 1957 or 58, when American craftsmanship was supposed to be good. Pictures to follow.

Couldn't get my car in the back yard. So instead I ran my Rebel into it.

Note that they didn't say "Pro Football Great". I consider him a great college player but they didn't say that either.

Demo'd (demolished) my bathroom in preparation for new tub and tile. Still have to demo to the next stud on the right, err other right (left). That's an outside wall. Older houses in SB don't have insulation in the walls, just in the ceilings. Cleanup happens tomorrow, when it's done. Well, it will be done if I can get the drain out.

Happy Birthday, Grahame. :prettyprincess: May you enjoy some Bubble & Squeak with extra bacon!

Be careful with that link. WOT says it has a "poor reputation", which means that it might be downloading malware to your computer.

The Great Escape. Definitely a great movie.

Through in some coconut fibers to make it high-end.

Happy Birthday, John. :prettyprincess: Hope you continue to have a wonderful day.

Yes, enjoy!

Actually it was JP who said that he'd heard that Tito's might be filtered bulk vodka, not me. That price was for a fifth. Sorry, I missed the "handle" part.

It's about $18 at Trader Joe's. Hope that there is one nearby to you.

Happy Birthday to both of you. :prettyprincess:
