And cavemen using dinosaurs to do work didn't bother you?I always wondered why the rear axle stayed on. This photo is not helping me answer that question.![]()

Found out there is more mold in this house than anticipated. It makes me cough deep down in my lungs. Gonna have to start in the attic with a bleach mixture and a long handled brush and get rid of it soon before it starts to warm up. Not looking forward to it. Each room is going to have to be wiped down. Walls, ceilings and floors. Every piece of furniture will have to be cleaned.
A few months ago I stood on the step at the Lincoln Memorial where he gave that speech.Happy MLK day everyone.
I had a dream
Oh, Come one now. Shear pin is the cheapest part in the whole setup, by design!Fuckin shear pins.
Thanks so much for that. I'll use vinegar on your recommendation. It will irritate my lungs less I'm sure. And I am miserable until I get that attic mold free. The ceilings are slat and those spores just filter down into the living space.Not sure what house you're in... But mold is no fun. Vinegar does a better job destroying mold than bleach. Cleaning vinegar can be pretty strong stuff. Do some research...
Wood can be treated with Concrobium Mold Control. MSDS says it's TSP and Sodium Carbonate. I believe those two ingredients impregnate the wood and prevent regrowth.
Papers, photos, books, may have to be discarded. Some can be treated with Ozone generators if valuable. Don't breath the ozone, or let plants/kids/pets get into a treated space. It is a strong oxidizer, and breaks down A LOT of stuff. Again, research...
Good luck. Mold makes me shudder. I have severe mold allergies, so it's well beyond a 'yuk' factor for me!
Yes… and they were created by Murphy.Oh, Come one now. Shear pin is the cheapest part in the whole setup, by design!
Hilarious!!!
Hopefully the mold is not the really bad types. Fingers crossed.Good morning.
Had my whole day planned until I realized it was a holiday and three of the things I wanted to do would be closed because of it.

Just to give you an idea, there are 7 china hutches...all full. There are 4 dining room tables. 35 straight-backed chairs. This is not a huge house but it is packed...at its all got a thin layer of mold on it.
Don't get me started on the garage, basement and the barn. Good thing is, those don't affect me directly and will be delt with over the summer months with a pick truck, trailer, and trips to the landfill.

No. That seemed plausible.And cavemen using dinosaurs to do work didn't bother you?
couldn't we allI coulda used some of those star wars cold beast thingees today!
In this very cold weather, is your pin big enough to get in the hole?Fuckin shear pins.
The ultimate oxymoron.
Fuck those things and their fucking designers. Could they be one tensile stronger??? Jesus Christ.
I get why they exist… (Shakes head after spending an hour in the cold trying to find the hole, with the new pin…)
I know that @nipplecaresser will have some good advice!

I laughed so hard at the donuts and your poor lawn.Took out my side by side and did some donuts till I realized I was tearing up the turf on my lawn. Whooops! Shakes head cuz I’m a lawn mowing nazi and my lawn mower lines and lawn in general has to look just so. Grrrr.
My friend, the chef, came over and we re-seasoned the pans. They’re really good pans, but for some reason they’re not seasoning 100% right. They’re definitely getting better as more layers get baked on., But even he said he’s at a bit of a loss.
Made stock for soup all afternoon and then veggie chicken bean soup. Was super yummy.
And of course fell asleep in the first quarter of the football game.
so many holes - so little timeIn this very cold weather, is your pin big enough to get in the hole?
Do you need to warm the hole up before trying to get your pin in?
Do you need to get the hole wet first before trying to get your pin in?
Do you have a neighbour with a bigger pin that might fit in the hole better?
Are you trying to get in the right hole?![]()

Sweet dreamsI laughed so hard at the donuts and your poor lawn.
Maybe call the manufacturer? Did you get a lemon by chance??
love soup - any time of year, but especially when it's so freaking cold

Does Murphy even like sports and movies???
so many holes - so little time
