NWI INGO General Post - Part 8

[KLB]

Yeah people don't understand the whole "don't drive into water"thing. Last year we had to pull a co-worker's ford exploder out after she drove into water halfway up her door. Needless to say that car never ran again.

No way. We all know SUVs are amphibious! Right?

As long as they're not fords.

That appears to be too manly for him.

No, bad sump pumps suck.

Good sump pumps suck, bad ones don't.

I stand corrected.

My JEEP never had any problems with water.... had mud and water all the way to the bottom of the door windows before and no snorkel kit on it either.... Haven't tried that with my Suburban yet....

BillB for the win on that one....

Love my DISH network.... took it with me on 15 of my 22 trips to cali.....

Put in a request for my birthday off so wife and I could do something.

Got scheduled 12 hour nights last night, and 12 hour days tomorrow. Guess technically I got the day off, but now I need to sleep most of the day away, wake up feeling crappy, try to sleep at night to go back to work in the morning.

Ditched my craptastic noname cheapo for a Zoeller and will never go back. I'm sure this pump will outlast my occupancy in this house.

WTB: universal lawn tractor snow plow. If you know one for sale, let me know please.

Is there such thing as a universal?

I have a plow in my shed, haven't a clue what it'd bolt to.

Lawn tractors suck at plowing btw.

 

[cyprant]

In have seen a few listed as universal. My tractor is a craftsman. How wide is your blade? Is it made for a tractor?

 

[aclark]

All dry in Crown Point today. I'm well above the flood zone, and I don't think my sump ever turned on last night

After living all my life in two houses that had wet basements, I'm SO freaking happy that this time we chose a house without a basement.

I want this

So even if the zombies come I'll be ok.
So tired of water in basement/crawlspace issues!

I had an alero that I swamped coming home from work after midnight years back. The intake was about as low as they could have engineered it. Unlike most people with broken down cars between here and work, I got out and pushed it to a parking spot.

Its an old heavy blade for a garden tractor. Was going to try to fab a mount for my John Deere 210 but never did.

I can grab some pictures when I go out to the shed next.

 

[cyprant]

Cool thanks. Are there no mounting brackets included with it as it sits? Is it only a blade?

 

[danmdevries]

Didn't remember how big this thing is. Doubtful any Craftsman mower could hold it.

Highlighted the mounting brackets that are there.

Ready for another episode of INGO missed connections?

Yeah me neither, but here goes.

So, I'm sitting in Schoop's with my wife eating my burger and mindlessly looking out the window. Suddenly some guy taps on the glass and looks me dead in the eye. He points at me and makes a scolding "No-no" gesture with his fingers. I have no clue who this guy is or what i did to tick him off. So i schrug apologetically and he walks away.

 

[Ericpwp]

I think you were eating your burger wrong.
