I don't know how long this has been a feature but I've never seen it happen before today.

It's been a feature for a while 🤣

On a side note, was ripped from Trillian back when we all used instant messaging. Now trillian is a business messaging tool you have to pay for with different tiers of features. I was looking at it not too long ago just out of nostalgic interest.

Omg. I completely forgot about trillian. Its been so long i thought that smilie was from AOL IM.

I'm assuming you need water delivery because the well would be overburdened to supply the pool? Living on city water my entire life, all I've ever seen people do throw the hose connected to the house over the side and and let it rip. Took a long time granted, and no telling what their water bill was for that month, but it was convenient. I guess the ground tarp can't handle a single NY winter? I know people here can use their tarps until the sun bleaches it from dark blue to baby blue so long as a major tropical system doesn't rip it. People anchor those down pretty good.

You also have to consider the cleaning of a legit ground pool. Gotta climb down in there and scrub it out, who knows what can crawl up under that tarp all those months. I guess it depends one which cons and pros you prefer. Either way its more work that ever want to deal with. One thing I have is an extremely solid long term memory. I can remember things all the way back to when I was 3 years old. I remember when I was 5 til I was about 7, I went to a day care that had a pool. I swam in it a few times, but one year I guess they decided it was too much of a hassle and they just filled it in with concrete. That seemed to be the popular thing to do back in the 80s and 90s. I dunno how it is now when you don't want a pool anymore. I guess buying a ton of concrete is cheaper than demolishing the pool, having the debris removed, and the ton of dirt to fill it in.  

Yeah it'll be too much of a burden on the well that and I have hard water. It seemed more cost efficient to order water that is already chlorinated and balanced than slow fill with well water and buy alot of chemicals. Last year the pool test strips I used once a week were all good. The only thing I had to do was keep using chlorine pucks. My friend that lives near me has well water he filled his kids 2x10 foot pool. 2 tests this week and his alkalinity and ph is all super high. He'll have to call a local pool store for the chemicals since we can't find an alkalinity reducer. Looks like he'll have to add a small amount of a specific acid to the water and then a ph up afterwards.

We took the pool down before winter and stored it in the garage.. the ground tarp didn't even make it to winter. I think the weight of the water stressed the tarp because the legs of the pool settled an inch deep with every leg. Once the pool was down that tarp was brittle and wrecked. Lol.

I'm getting my water delivery on monday.

This is what the pool looks like so far. It looks filthy because I read it was best to baby powder it when folding it up for storage so it doesn't stick to itself when putting it back up because it's vinyl. Seemed to work because it unfolded just fine.

And harbor freight ftw. 19x19 foot tarp for $19 with tax after coupon. 

I kept the old tarp. I threw it in the garage thinking I'd reuse it, but man it was beyond destroyed.  I need to throw it in the garbage. What's really stupid is amazon sells "pool ground covers" for $89. All it is is a plain blue tarp. Lol. Screw amazon BS listings.

Wowzers, thoughts and prayers.

this year sucks  

Just when you can't think this year could get any worse. Here's to hoping he can kick it in the ass

had to call sears technician to fix our dryer about six months ago. he said he would be back bc he had no tools to do the job right away, waiting for that numbnut turned into a week or two, finally called someone else, turned out a freaking bird was nesting on a vent exit and that was blocking the flow or whatever. fixed it less than 15 mins. i got the hang of air drying for awhile, but back to being convenient  

I'm glad that was an easy fix!

the sears guy kept delaying and pushed back dated schedule. i knew what he was doing. he wanted an extra cash but didn't have time from his work so he made us wait a week after another week. even if he had attempted to fix it, he already told us he was going to vacuum a vent and probably overcharged us. screw that guy.  

Bad boy no coffee for you ... Btw, what' is this!!!??

Status updates! It used to be the visitor messages on our old profiles.

#disconnects his internet#

Nooo!

It's pretty nice outside.

Boooo! Its horrible out! It was 1 degree this morning! and now its about 5 out. So cold.

after a long break, i was expected something more, it was a god episode, but I kinda felt it needed more

Same with me. I didn't care for the woodbury scene with Andrea rallying the group there. She so easily talked everyone down. If the governor was dead she could have just taken over. wtf.

cant wait for season 2, hard to find decent sci-fi,

I think season 2 is going to start next month.. but syfy channel here only said "Season 2 is coming soon" I hope they try and keep it current with the initial Canada airing.

Once you start playing your new star wars games, you wont accomplish anything!

Lol. My new games along with overtime at work.. I'll be busy again.

YAY! Glad to hear your modifications are doing the job! Hope you're feeling better!

Thanks! I'm feeling a bit better too, except in the mornings.. damn sinuses. \

I've been sucked into netflix anime and SWTOR X'D

Between work, tv and playing with Chu, my time disappears so damn quick. Lady is already farther ahead of me in Last of Us even.. I'm seeing so many spoilers. ;_;

She'll be beating PS4 games before you even get one at this rate.

lmao. If theres a game on PS4 that she wants I wouldn't mind watching her play it.

old lazy bitch *cracks the whip* MUSH MULE MUSH!

I had a migraine today.. I experienced literal blind spots in my vision today. I have never had that happen before.. scary shit not seeing parts of vehicles directly in front of me on the freeway. x_o

or you could just use chrome

Yes I could, but I like firefox because of fireftp and firebug.

Yep, an hour of it, is this their last season?

From what I've heard, they plan on keeping the series going for the forseeable future.

Man that sucks. I remember when our company got bought out and my job title no longer existed. It was nerve racking hoping to pick up a new position.

Ouch, that must have sucked. I think my position is safe but I'm loosing quite a bit of confidence in the higher management and the lack of future accounts we're currently not acquiring.

Just wait until the 3rd, its better than both combined

I'm looking forward to it.

I still have to get around to watching them, have all three downloaded just been to lazy and too busy to watch them. Is the first one bad? Haven't really read anything about it.

It was good, but too fast paced.. and the CG seemed a bit off compared to the rest of the animation. It definitely felt like the first part of a story as opposed to being a good standalone movie. I still haven't seen the second or third one yet but I heard its best to watch them all at once in a marathon.

That's all?

You only have about 30 more games than me.

I never did play any of the uncharted games. I'll probably start with the next.

I beat it today. It was fun, but it felt like a really basic version of Tomb Raider. Then again, the game is 6 or so years old and the newest Tomb Raider was an amazing game with huge areas to explore. Uncharted took me about 14 hours to beat. I have Uncharted 3 from PS+, now all I have to do is borrow Uncharted 2 from my brother and beat it first.

It's probably a Facebook thing. My longest is 5 or 6 minutes, so it must be that 7 or 8 min mark that's the magic number.

Thats a good point. I have a bomber video thats just over 5 mins and it uploaded fine. I tried uploading the 8 minute video twice. Even though it uploads completely, it won't post to facebook and the video shows in my PS4 whats new feed, but the video fails to load.

Do you walk outside and say "let's kick some ice!"

No. lol.

I can't wait to waste away a whole week on it.

Nice.

It was delicious.
