    No more messing with the clock in North Dakota

    I'm surprised that you're surprised that I was surprised. It was simply not a thing I've seen happen on either side of my family. I saw kids "move back home" on occasion. But now I see parents following their adult children. Not good or bad necessarily - just a wildly different trend that...

    Water Heaters: Tankless vs Traditional

    Lower Unit Freezing

    Help me understood this one. The impeller and housing are quite wet - and are displacing air/water rather than just water. Low strain, low friction on surfaces. What's the problem?

    Winter is sure wearing on the deer!
