People from Craigslist never cease to amaze me. I put our old TV on CL for free on Sat. night. I was VERY specific that it was downstairs and weighted 180 lbs. I explicitly said bring a couple guys with. I repeated it in the e-mail that I sent to him. So .. Sunday evening a dumbazz shows up to pick up the TV. I went outside to meet him (showed up an hour late) and asked if he brought anyone else with. No. Just me and my Fiance. I was already irritated that he was an hour late. I told him AGAIN that it was 180 lbs and had to be brought up the stairs and that he needed to bring a couple people.

So he called a buddy and the two of them came back. About halfway up the stairs, he goes "geez .. I thought you were kidding." WTF?

At least it's gone and I don't have to pay the $90 to recycle the thing.

Warm enough that the ladies had to back up a couple of times to cool down.

I need to move that chrome tip out just a bit I think. It really rumbles under the truck. Unless there is an exhaust leak at those clamps.
