@Fat Nick , if this project moves forward, it's definitely going to be thanks to posts like yours. Truly appreciated, and thanks again. This is more or less what I have in mind. Key differences: I think I'm going for a slightly larger platform out of the door than what's pictured. I'm now...

Sorry, your assumption was correct, and thank you for the great feedback. There's no composite component to this project, just piggybacking on top on an old thread, this is a lumber only project. Since the platform and ramp would be contained entirely within an interior garage, would I be...

Any deck builders / DIYers out there that can lend some advice on what should be the world's easiest "floating deck" ? Trying to build a wheelchair ramp for my 83-year old father in my parent's attached double garage. It's really more of a 5'x5' platform out their entry way , 14" above the...

I guess that's the way Ned Flanders likes them.

They should have some kind of orientation for rookies. Don't do what Donny Don't Does. Going to have to cut him in August unless there's some raging inferno of sophomore year camp hype.

RBs with 2nd round draft capital don't grow on trees. There's an outside chance I'll have to make the decision at the 1.5 in August. My hunch is that Harvey is still a decent bet, but I'd be lying if I didn't say Kaleb Johnson is back on my radar. Most likely, the pivot would go to a WR if...

Can't help you on ff "tv shows". Audible/footballguys are my go-to for podcasts/youtube videos. Ray Garvin is also very entertaining, particularly for dynasty/rookie coverage.

Sounds like a lot of fun. Just curious, @Golden Gopher , did you guys give any thought to a road trip? Not sure if you're farther out than the Twin Cities, how scattered your group is, or if you have a pilot and/or access to a private plane. I would definitely be the guy in your group...

Not a fan of the term "backup RB" for a number of teams. One-Two punch, "split" fits for some Detroit Minnesota Chargers Pittsburgh Washington - New England - not betting on Gibson making it 3-man committee, but it could happen Giants - not betting on Singletary making it 3-man committee, but...

Sports teams wearing alternate uniforms with a color scheme completely inconsistent with the team's actual colors past or present. NBA is the worst. However, I'm watching Twins-Blue Jays highlights and inadvertently rooting for the Blue Jays because powdered blue jerseys at least has some...

Major League is definitely winning my lifetime tally board. Shawshank Redemption is probably close, but represents the movie version of a great song that you play to the point of exhaustion. I think I decided 10 years ago that I needed to put it aside and come back to it in 2035.

Interesting. I had a dry lock lubricant that I was using that seemed like it was helping to get the thing to eventually accept the key, but it might have just been a placebo. Successfully turning the key always felt random and miraculous. I probably should have invested in a pick set last...

As an update, the service manager at Honda stepped up. I picked my car up last night and found that I'm now completely unable to turn the ignition / re-establish the key after 3 hours (previously, always able to get it within 60-90 minutes). Had to pay the diagnostics and did a couple of...

Had an okay run with a high mileage '04 Civic that won me over enough to give a lower mileage lease return a go. This is really the first WTF repair to be fair. Of all the old, high mileage cars that have circulated in my family, a key not being able to turn the ignition is a new one for me...

More annoyed that the Honda dealership gave me a $500-$1000 (so $1K) "likely worst case" estimate before I went in. For $1750 (easily 25%+ of what it's worth), I'll just leave the key in the ignition, manually lock it with the other one, and just not leave anything important inside. The...
