Found my grid-filler for the day, then out with Betty's work group for all-you-can-eat steak and shrimp.

Where did you go for the AYCE steak and shrimp Jim?

I see an incomplete sentence, an oxymoron, and an incorrect article.

Sorry Big Jim, I just finished proofreading a paper for the older one. I wish I had free steak and shrimp for dinner.

Waiting for the garage door guy, but looking forward to having this fixed. With no outside handle and no service door on the garage, this running around through the house to open/close the door is a little crazy.

Could have probably saved $100 by DIY, but will gladly pay this to get the warranty and piece of mind that if it quits I just make a phone call.

Last year warm or cold our door wouldn't always shut.. Opener was the 1st model year they put the sensors on. Chamberlain pretty much said buy new. So after I putzed with it for a few months the wife cracked and put a new one on her CC as my xmas gift. Rolling Eyes

So on a cold winter break day I put it up, worked great. Fast forward to a few months ago, it won't go down again, it was around 30 then. now thats its below zero, it won't go down at all. Have to un hitch it every time and pull it down. Lights don't even blink, it just moves a foot or so then goes back up.

sounds like the door is binding or the track needs grease. those sensors can be really touchy but better safe than squish a kid.

This has been a dilemma I have faced for five years now: Should we put "a" or "an" before "FTP"? The consonant "F" would indicate "a", but the sound of the letter "eff" would indicate "an". That is why you will see me using "the" because you can read it either way to yourself, however you prefer.

I would lean toward "an" FTP simply because of the way it is said, like "It would be an honor to get an FTP in the Useless Drivel forum." My major in math is of no help here, but my minor in English will not let me make posts until I have gone over and over them for errors. However, some still slip through, especially typos.

My major in math tells me that this is #15 unless someone jumps in for the FTP ...
