i've noticed something about google image search:

if you have safe search turned OFF, no matter what search phrase you use, eventually the search engine is going to pull up something truly lurid and nasty.

try it for yourself.

Wow 1k euro will add up to real money fast. We have central gas heat and my utility company averages my bill over the year. I spend about 60 bucks a month for the gas bill and that is our hot water and cooking source.

I am not a huge fan of Deep Purple but I like a few of their songs. I don't recognise that one though.

Imagine how cold i had to be , to take the 911's blanket!! (i only had the blanket, the 911 was long gone by then but, let's not get confused over that detail)

My house was built in 1995. It needs some more attic insulation but everything else is in good shape. We have heated floors in the bathroom that are just wonderful. Even during the ice storm a couple of years ago when we lost electricity for most of a day the house stayed warm enough to be comfortable with just the gas fireplace.

Every year I think about getting a gas powered generator. Every year I put it off. What I want is the natural gas powered backup generator big enough to run the AC in the summer but that is about 8 grand installed and ready to go.

The owner of the company I work for, he was spouting off at the mouth because we have a real problem child in the shop that is a burr in his side for who knows what reason. Okay I should start out with I have no experience with a propane injected 6L chevy engine, and even though I fixed the starting/running issue (without being asked to even look at it) He was fussing about the length of time it took to get it going. I told him I did it between my regular jobs and was NOT asked to look at it, I just took it upon myself to get it done. I informed him I was going to be very stupid from this point forward and know less every day I have to punch in. He didn't have the nads to say something to my face and he didn't know I was standing behind him when he started flapping his gums. The look on his face was priceless when I let him in on ALL of the details.
