I'm a senior on a fixed income so I stay broke. I have to actually count slices of bread to make sure I can stretch the loaf out as long as possible.
I tried calling FedEx 800 number looking for a package and never could get past the automated to actually talk to someone.
Many are for term policies that end at age 80. You live longer than that and all the money you paid in is lost.

Their is no existing ground rod and wire in the back of the house. The only existing ground rod is on the side of the house where the house electric panel is located. About 50' or so away.

Grounding outdoor antenna

Posted by justjoe906 on 4/17/25 at 7:58 pm
Installed a new outdoor antenna at the back of the house. This location is away from the existing electrical boxes that enter the house. I've tried reading up on it but a little confused.
I was hoping to be able to drive a ground rod at the back of the house then attach a ground wire from the antenna and one from the coax cable to the ground rod.
Reading up on the NEC code the ground rod must be bonded to the house. They suggest using the existing house ground system at the incoming panel to the house.
My plan was to drive an 8' copper rod into the ground and attach the coax and antenna grounds to that. They say if you do that it must be bonded to the house, not sure how to achieve that.
I don't use X so I guess I'll find out whatever they're trying to tell me when I don't get my direct deposit.

re: Is congress doing anything?

I'm a Republican but for the life of me can't understand why they can never get anything done in Congress. They have 2 years before mid-terms and chances are the Democrats will take over after that. Therefore Trumps last 2 years will be spent fighting Impeachments that they will sure go after.
The Republican Congress is a total disaster.

Anybody but South Carolina due to Dawn Staley.
Perhaps a few but mostly not especially with some of these countries paying such low wages compared to American worker salaries.
They're $5.33 a dozen for large at WalMart Baton Rouge, why so cheap there?
I use my horn now more than ever trying to get people to put their phones down and go when the light changes.

My neighbor and her obsession with the leaf blower. She's outside no later than 5:45 every morning 7 days a week. It's very noisy and she's blowing off the carport, driveway, patio, vehicles etc. This goes on for at least 45 minutes.

I started over and was able to get it up and running and have a few questions.
Is this legit? I don't want big brother to come and knock on my door. Also, what is the difference between this version and the pay version?

I tried but they're asking for a donation. Am I on the right track or did I do something wrong?
