I'm getting to enjoy your posts more and more. On the dryer part, a friend of mine called me an said that they had moved into a new house and she needed a gas line run for the new gas dryer she had delivered. I asked if there was a galvanized pipe where the dryer was, an she said yes. But said it wasn't hooked up. I ask where she thought the pipe ran. All she kept saying was the guy that dropped off the dryer said it needed to be hooked up in the attic. So, I went got a gas valve, a little pipe dope and hooked up her dryer, easy job. You can take the cap off, put your hand over the gas line, its dropped down to low pressure at the meter.
I hate being even mildly shocked. During cold weather sometimes when I get out of my truck I somehow get a little charge of static electricity I guess from sliding my ass on the seat. Then when I touch the metal door to close it I get shocked.
Well I'm certainly glad to be able to entertain you. I'd enjoy yours a LOTS more if you could ever answer a simple yes or no question with a yes or no. Instead we get either "see last year" "ever hear of Mett" or, and I love this one "3k y passing and 2ea 1k yd wr and a 1k y rb" Let it go. They arent coming back.
Wuss. When I was little we had horses and an electrified fence that sent a shock every few seconds to encourage the horses to stay away from the perimeter. As the youngest of three I enjoyed showing off in front of my sister's friends so I would grab the wire and allow it to shock me. My siblings got tired of the act so they secretly turned up the voltage and encouraged me to show off again. Damn shock sent me flying and on my ass. I didn't do it anymore.
I could teach my wife how to flip a circuit breaker if I wasn't here. Possibly even light a water heater. But she ain't changing a flat tire. And if that makes me pussywhipped I guess I'll have to plead guilty.
Get in the habit of tapping your door with the back of your hand before closing it when it is cold. It dissipates the shock.
