tile
I'm stumped on this one. I would say either give it some time see if it goes away, or rip it out and start over with a new tile guy.

Was the P-trap replaced when the new shower pan was installed? Is the drain 2"? Is it vented? Is it backpitched? Does your wife use any facial masks with sulfur in them?

Rock from dump truck breaks windshield - what to do
If it comes off the truck and hits the windows insurance will cover it. If its kicked up off the road "no tickie no laundry"! Make sure she insists the rock fell of the top of the truck! Been there a few times myself with Mt. Hope and Rainbow Transport both have smashed my windshield. I pull them over when it happens and call the state police. I had one jerkoff that barely spoke English outright refuse to show me an insurance card. I stood in front of his truck on the side of rt 80 till the cops showed up.

Coyotes in Parsippany
They are really decimating the wild turkey & rabbit populations, as well as killing fawns. Some coyote are fine but we are their only predator so killing them is necessary for more than just protecting the deer population. I wish I could show you the tracks in the snow last year where I hunt, there are so many coyote there its insane.

Wow sounds like we have a lot in common when it comes to VT. We used to camp at North Beach in Burlington, it was an easy walk down to the brewfest. This was the first year we all rented a lake house in Charlotte (apparently pronounced Char-Lott if your from Vermont). I feel the same way about magic hat, their beers are good but definitely not as great as they were years back. I'm totally in love with Fiddlehead, we went there twice and had pizza next door afterwards. Great beer my favorite this year was called "Brett on the dance floor" from them. I bought a growler and growlet bottle coosie there this year. I'm really into hoppy beers I like them bitter, ESB's & IPA's are my usual preference. Funny were having this discussion about magic hat, the brewmaster from Switchback and I had basically the exact same opinion as well. He hit the nail on the head and said he feels they have more or less turned into a t-shirt and hat company. Like they're more interested in selling cool schwag rather than concentrating on brewing great beer like they used to. I still will drink a #9 or single chair, my lady loves the Elder Betty. I miss Lucky Kat I really dug that beer. This year I did grab a growler of their new IPL Dream Machine it wasn't bad. Burlington Brewery was also very good, as well as Vermont Brew Pub, we drove up to Trout river, and another day down to drop in brewery and Bobcat. If I could make the same money up there I make here I would move there in a heartbeat. Beautiful state, great skiing in the winter. People are all nice also, I've yet to meet anyone that was an A$$hole up there thus far.

Coyotes in Parsippany
I kill coyote in the middle of a neighborhood all the time. As long as your 450' from a building good to go. Just have to know your target and beyond. Its not the division that's the problem, its the towns themselves not allowing people to hunt on town owned properties. My town had such a problem they had no choice but to institute a comprehensive deer management program. You pay $25 and you get a permit to hunt the township owned properties bow only. But its better than gun hunting anyway IMO, especially with a cross bow. The division has opened up basically unlimited doe harvest in most zones. We just don't have enough people interested in hunting any longer. Its not politically correct anymore here. People are too lazy or too busy to take up hunting these days. But they're the same people that cry their car is damaged or their landscaping is destroyed. Way easier to go to the supermarket instead of killing their own. Less license sales = less money the division has to buy more hunting properties, as well as less money to manage the deer population using methods other than hunting. Point your fingers at the municipality that doesn't allow management hunting that's why your auto insurance is high due to deer vs vehicle collisions. Not because the division hasn't done anything about the overpopulation problem, they have done everything possible to this point, short of kicking in your door putting a gun to your head and forcing you into the woods to kill deer. Honestly what do you expect them to do? They made it a piece of cake to get a license, opened the season from September to February, kept the license prices the same for the last decade without an increase, unlimited doe harvest... ect...

I like the idea of someone else driving me around. We were there for a week this year. Before brewfest. We did our own tour, got our passports at magic hat and did 10 breweries all together throughout the week, for the free t-shirt at brewfest from the VT brewers association. There are 20 on the passport, each place you go gives you a stamp. this was my 8th year in a row going to brewfest. I usually visited one or two because we were only there camping for the weekend in the past. This year we all rented a house in Charlotte for the week on lake Champlain. So we had more time to see more places then we usually did in the past. Went to a few wineries as well for the girls. I love that state!

I was there as well, they just opened an awesome new tasting room with a bar at the brewery. They also had some excellent hot dogs they cooked in beer. I met one of the brewmasters really nice people, and their beer is great!

I was just at that brewery two weeks ago. Did the brewfest also. Great beer. I know where to get here as well.

Coyotes in Parsippany
I kill coyote indiscriminately if I encounter them while hunting. The division of fish and wildlife asks that all hunters do so. It is legal to kill them anytime while deer hunting during any deer season. Then they have a special season after deer season ends that runs until March, you can use any center fire rifle up to .25cal during daylight hours, and a shotgun at night. The Hunter must be in possession of a predator call during the special season.

Wooden arrows with a compound bow
Glad you decided on a place, there are about 20 responses on the hunting forum. All the ones guys here also recommend are among them as well. Good luck with your bow. I know I find it relaxing to come home and shoot in the backyard during the week.

I actually drove 2 hours to drink the Elder in Philly, then stood online for an hour when they had a pouring of the Younger. It was worth it! One more crossed off my beer advocate top 100 list.

Newbies to the range...
Im never shy to anyone customers, family members, friends, or a stranger to express my love of firearms. I go one step further sometimes and express my love of killing my dinner with them as well. People that are offended that I'm a gun owner I don't need in my life. I don't fault people for not agreeing with hunting, as long as they don't have a problem with making it my choice of how I feed my family. Its not for everyone. But in my opinion if your not a lawful gun owner, your not a good American either.

Coyotes in Parsippany
I'll believe it when I see a dead one. If there were wolves in Blairstown we would be hearing stories about livestock being killed. Im not saying its impossible, but not likely they are wild wolves. Possible they may have been captive wolves that escaped or were released by an irresponsible owner that's too afraid to come forward and claim ownership.

Wooden arrows with a compound bow
Don't touch the bow with a tool unless you know exactly what your doing! I highly recommend bringing the bow to a professional with a bow press to work on it. Have them scale the bow then adjust the poundage to where your comfortable. Also have the string checked and the draw length adjusted to you personally before you pick out an arrow. Step one get your draw length set step two choose the proper length and weight arrows made out of the correct material for your modern style compound bow. And under no circumstances should you ever use a wooden arrow in a modern bow. They're not meant for a modern bow with snappy cams pushing arrows up to 300fps. This is an example of what happens when you choose the wrong length arrow.

DC Handgun Carry Ban Overturned!
Ahhh senior year of high school, had a cool car with a big Phoenix on the hood, always full of beautiful young ladies hanging out of the T-tops, an easy job, no bills, and normally $100 in my pocket at all times. I'll take that year anytime. Ohh, I think I hear Nirvana on the radio...

Another HVAC/IAQ question
DiversaTech makes tablets that you can drop into the catch tray or pan that stops the algae from growing. Problem with them is everyone forgets to do it. I have a hard enough time trying to convince my customers that an air filter thats clearly marked "30 day filter" right on it needs to be replaced monthly. Sometimes when I ask if they have been changing their air filter I get this response: "I have an air filter? Ive lived here three years and never knew"

Another HVAC/IAQ question
Honestly I've always thought they were gimmicky. The do however keep the condensate drip pan much cleaner in a traditional ducted type system if installed in the correct location. Those drip trays usually get a layer of slime in them like pond scum. The uv lights reduce that drastically.
