I used approx 50/50 bleach and water with about 80z of blue Dawn as a redneck surfactant to help keep it on the roof while it did it's thing. I saw a little improvement in appearance but not enough to notice if you weren't looking for it. ...

DIY Roof Wash

Looking for suggestions for a DIY roof wash for an asphalt shingle roof. I tried the bleach/dawn/water mixture but didn't see too much result. Has anyone tried an approach that worked for them?...

re: What is your favorite memory from an Alabama LSU game? (Non 2019)

Posted by ed3303 on 10/26/22 at 10:07 pm

1993. No one gave LSU a chance. Bama was defending national champs. LSU had Curley and was 3-5. One paper said that LSU would win "when pigs fly" I believe LSU won 17-14. I watched with my mom from her hospital room while she was in the last few weeks of her cancer battle. She loved LSU fo...

Yep, it used to be cool. So was smoking cigarettes, barfights and driving after a few drinks. It's crazy how some people seem to outgrow foolish antiquated ideas and others stupidly cling to them....

re: LSU/College in the 80s

Posted by ed3303 on 7/10/22 at 11:45 am

Late 80's, Tigerland was still safe and Tiger Plaza was probably the nicest apt complex in town. Drinking age was 18 and Tiger Burger had great burgers. Brewbachers was a rare treat because we were broke and meal plans kept us from starving. Parents didn't know what we were doing on day to day ba...

re: 20 years of 401k and now this?

Posted by ed3303 on 6/20/22 at 8:55 pm

You said that too few people took advantage of their 401k offerings. Can you imagine if social security was elective and not mandatory?? The educated few would participate, the shiny toy crowd would not (just like their 401k's) and they would be absolutely destitute when too old to work. As bad a...

re: Suggestions for two pond problems

Posted by ed3303 on 5/31/22 at 10:31 pm

And I am planting cypress around my pond. Funny how everyone has their own thing. For the weeds, purchase a trimmer head with the 3 metal blades that swing freely back and forth. You can probably find one that is compatible with your trimmer. It does a great job and turns the backbreaking cho...

Make SURE your subfloor is clean and level. Spend 20.00 on installation kit with spacers and block. Use the block to tap each plank where the planks will lock together. All in all it is very easy and the job goes quickly....

re: Possibly getting away from neighborhood life

I bought a similar albeit smaller place (4 acres) with pond, pool, shop etc. I have absolutely loved having the space and the therapy that working outside provides. Like you, my pond is older and the dam is now leaking and in need of repair in order to keep the pond at full stage. I don't have any...

Great memories there in the late 80's early 90's. We used to eat at TigerBurger damn near every night because it was 50 feet from our front door and he would take our worthless checks. He did eventually cut us off... Sports, Freds, The Tiger, Fountainhead Apt Kegs on Thursdays. I hope the kids...
