I had errands to run Wednesday. When I got back home the furnace had quit working. Did a bit of trouble shooting and found that the fuse in the disconnect switch had opened. Grabbed a replacement from the “Misc. ’Lectric” box, and replaced the dud.
Elapsed repair time: About 10 minutes.
Price of fuse: $0
Cost of repair: —$200 ($200 saved from avoided house call by furnace man; @ 1/6th hour, works out to $1200/hr rate.)
Moral: Paddle your own boat when you can. And don’t throw anything away, willy-nilly.

If it’s 25% off but you don’t need it, do you save anything?

Wearing clothes like those, she’ll be the belle of the ball. And after she takes them off, she’ll be the belle of his ball.

I had a girlfriend like this. I found out it’s possible to spend $300 on nails. I also found out I was powerless to resist a very busty blonde.
