  1. Not to worry B Cliff it's the heart and thought that makes you the man that you are. While you will miss this year I am sure that other's will step forth and pick up the load you have carried......I hope that in the future you can come back and again find yourself at the head of the train again.

  2. I can ad my .02 cents here also.... I have ordered shirts, books and cd's from Jen and Pete and have had nothing but great service from them. The only bad thing is the lucky hat that Pete sent me still hasn't brought me a musky........I might have to go over to the darkside and see if Marc can scare one up for me since Pete...........

  3. For the Moen, I kept all the paperwork, unscrew the handle, pull the "E" clip and then the cartridge should pull out, I'll have to emphasize SHOULD, if I pulled any harder, the whole chitten faucet would have come up through the counter top. Took the whole unit out, and finally in a 6 inch bench vise and wrecking bar it came out, bad molding or whatever, but never another Moen.

     

     

    Their are a few tools made to get the stuck cartridges out with out harming the faucet Any of the Moen faucets that are made after 1996 use a 1225 cartridge that is plastic and stopped the issue of the cartridge bonding between the brass units. If you have any issues in the future with the moens made after 1996 and you are the original owner they have a lifetime warrentee that actually means something. You can call them at 1-800 buy-moen While this sounds like a commercial for them I am just a plumber that appreciates a good product and great support.

     

    A word of note as far as the black in the delta the cups : The rubber is deteriorating but it is far from needing service until it actually leaks. The little bit of discoloredness does not indicate that they are close to failing just oxidized.

  5. While I grew up the rule was until I was responsible enough to marry then I was not allowed to do the married life in my parents house. Even after I left home and visited with my fiance we slept in separate rooms. After he is at the point that he has the ability to financially and emotionally support another person and is in his own house then he needs to respect your rules. I am not saying that I did not have relationships with ladies till I was married but I did not thrust it into the lime light of the family's world out of respect for their beliefs and feelings. I think you also might think about counseling with both of you at the meeting so a mutual agreement can be reached with a 3rd party moderating the discussion.
