Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
And you just don't want to piss off the people fixing your major appliances.
You can really be at their mercy. It's scary. This is a good guy, though. I just knew I was going to get the lecture about the air return.
I just try and pick up information whenever I can, because the more you learn about the way these things work, the better you can deal with the next repair guy. (Bit of knowledge for today: the air compressor has a starting side and a running side.)

See, and here I would have assumed this was a prelude to a "...better go catch it!" joke.
I'm fooling around at the Avery site, making up variations on a business card, which alas, I'm pretty much going to need in the near future.
Theo, you can also go to VistaPrint.com, which has a lot of free cards, as well as inexpensive ones. The free ones have Vista Print.com on the back, but so what?
I just got a lovely vistaprint card handed to me yesterday. I know, and have used the service many, many times...but if I didn't, I'm not sure I'd even have noticed their logo on the back.

It was actually a prelude to a lecture about how the starter on the starting side was broken. There were a lot of lectures today.

Dear Repair Dude,
If we all knew everything there was to know about A/C units, we wouldn't need you. You'd be unemployed and living in a van down by the river.
I'm not really here because I'm on a group pc while they do something to my unix account and my god is it a pain in the ass to adapt tasks done on a unix desktop to doing them on a pc. Especially since I don't use pcs much.
But I got to "feed" the jukeboxes today because I'm the only one here. It was very 2001. Um. In 2007. Um.
I also thankfully know how to delete cookies.
I just have to get the Avery business card blanks to print them out with, though -- and if I decide to change my design/text, I can do it in batches of ten.
Right now, in place of a company name, I have
application architecting * workflow designing * info managing * db wrangling
... which is either too precious or just enough to be accurate yet tantalizing in a sea of otherwise ordinary business cards given to prospective networkers, et cetera.
(Edited to add: it all fits on one line, across the width of the card....)
In non air-conditioning news, is anyone watching the Tour de France? amych?
