That would be fine by me.

I don't have radar detector because I never drive fast enough to get a ticket (or so I thought). I have 107k miles on my vehicle in just under three years. I log a lot of miles each week and see a ton of cops. I've never had a problem until this guy says I'm going 15mph faster than I actually was.

Sorry to hear about you getting a ticket, Bigs. No way I'd just pay the ticket. (This is coming from someone who has already been to traffic school 3 times, lol.)

Now that's desperation.

tony went to the da yesterday, as court was set for a day he was working graveyards. got the ticket changed to a non moving violation. also got the fine reduced by about $75. still ridiculous, but it'll have to do!

good luck bigs with yours.

the problem is vibration..every time the pump kicks on, it'll rattle the pipe--it's about 200 feet down, a lot of pipe shaking and shimmying. but yeah, we're trying to locate some schedule 80, rather than going back to the same fitting. it's the third time in 10 years that it's broken, so it's not happening often. just a pain when it does happen.
especially considering i feel like crap with a cold, it's about 38 degrees, and raining.

Are you telling me...are YOU telling ME you've been using sched. 40??

What's the matter with that imbecile Trolly?

Danzig · #50 01-26-2008, 02:04 PM

when we did it before, we replaced with what was there. but i asked him today if there was something better to use, since the problem keeps recurring in the exact same spot. neither one of us had a well before buying this house, so we're novices at that sort of thing. so he asked at the hardware store...they suggested 80, but of course they don't carry it.

and it's saturday. so good luck finding a place that does carry it.

happened last time on a wknd too. what luck.

oh, and i'm going to tell him you called him an imbecile. you're gonnnnnnaaaa geeeeet it....
