You know what i hate?

Here on I-80 just west of where it intersects with I-39 there was a two-year road job. When the west was opened up I was like halleluiah, then they started on the east, another year. One narrow interstate lane, including a bridge and curves. Didn't scare me, I was so used to it, the semis made holes fast, I knew where to swerve. As soon as it opened to two lanes I hammered the pedal to get ahead of the uninformed vehicles and semis. It was a messy and crumby road for two years, the route to the dispo and vet. I hate that they start those merge signs two exits early. From my house it's 2 minutes to the on-ramp, there are three exits in the first 5 miles, including the shopping zone exit - WalMart/Home Depot/Menards/Kohls/Auto dealerships/Mall/Motels/chain restaurants - an exit lane I like to avoid.
 
golfnrl I hate it too. alltatup Gen Z'ers are more into voting, protesting ... reminds me of 'Nam. My nephew: b.1975, Gen X? Many are Gamers glued to the screen, rarely out in social places, i.e. bars, concerts, etc., don't care much about voting or politics except to complain about things they don't know much about, very cynical. Boomers kill me: from Frank Sinatra to Buddy Holly to The Beatles, in one lump. We are not all the same. 1955 here. I can associate with 75-80 year olds and late 20 to 30's, the same as people my own age. Age means little to me, it's the person, regardless of their age. Did they even tag generations before the Boomers? It's nice to hear of younger people I know who are in the trades: electricians, plumbing ... They have nice homes, family oriented, mom can stay home to raise the kids if she wants. Like when we were young.
 
3Berries Thanks! Sometimes when it gets very cold outside I hear this big loud boom. I can't imagine deck boards sounding that loud for whatever reason. Does that sound like a furnace thing?
 
My floor furnace acted that way, it was a loose connection on a thermal sensor, I just bent the spade terminal so it would be tighter. So far thats fixed it. good luck Puglover1
 
The loud boom maybe be the ductwork popping? And the power vent sensor is an air flow sensor that may get the small air tube clogged with dust or pug hair!
 
3Berries Will delaying calling someone be detrimental? Like burn out something else? This morning as it was waiting to fire up seemed like I heard some air noise as I passed the basement door. Also, little warmer today, didn't take long later ... it seems to take longest when it's coldest outside. Does that make sense? Is this a definite HVAC tech call, or a handyman that might be cheaper? Not as cold today, maybe they're not as busy as the two weeks in December. TY!
 
If it's the duct work it would happen just as the fan comes on. If that's not the case then you may have some sort of mini expolsion going on when it's trying to light.

You really need to watch it as it tries to fire up. Usually there is a led on the control board that flashes a code or shows what stage things are in on the start cycle. You'll have to look in the manual for the furnace to interpret what it's showing.

The usual starting sequence is the exhaust dampener opening and a fan coming on to purge any fumes out of the combustion chamber and exhaust, then a gas solenoid will open along with the igniter. Once the flame is established then it runs off the thermostat. There's also some sort of optical eye or other sensor that see the flames to keep it all running.
 
Greta Thunberg getting arrested. Seriously. Who the Friar Tuck cares?
Not seeing my new neighbors after a few days of banging and outside husband yelling, and wife crying every time I saw her.
Finding out my Doc Martins are not waterproof.
Sweeping and hairing dog hairs every day and picking up hairballs as the day goes on.
Rain days for drying drugs.
 
Check out the BBC online. TV BBC is fine for news until you have to see and listen to people you would rather not see or hear. Online lets you filter the turds from the soup.
I have done and will do nothing more than see the headline and picture of earth's greatest warrior getting carried away by helmeted people. She's smiling and staring at the ass of the helmeted person carrying her feet. Ain't never kissed a boy but loves the manhandling helmets, I guess.
 
I hate when you see a picture that reminds you of someone, but you can't quite figure out who. Any ideas?
