John, I did, but perhaps it didn't post? I didn't get an email or

Our daughter is running in the Race for the Cure on May 20th in Columbus,
Ohio and has done so for the past 7 years. We have also been making
donations to the Susan Komen fund for the past 20 or so years. I assume all
donations for breast cancer research are funneled to that fund

I am sorry to hear about your daughter John and hope that she conquers this
disease. But please do not assume that folks are not supporting the funding
of the research because they have not responding to your request.

My prayers are with your daughter.

$10, John? What's that these days? Two gallons of gas? I think most
of the people here can afford to spend at least twice that much and not
miss a penny of it.

I am asked for donations of one kind or another all the time. These,
more personal, donations are a no-brainer.

Keep slugging, you should get 100% from these boaters, heck it cost more

I made my donation anonymously also, I want to know how did he know it was
me. to send me the thank you note. ; )

Reminds me of an old joke,

Two (fill in favorite ethnic groups) were looking at a Thermos. One guy
said to the other. This thing is a miricle bottle, it keeps cold things
cold, and hot things hot.

The other guy pondered this for awhile and asked "How does it know the
difference?"

He's smart. I could have designed the site so that donations would show up
there, like the top 50 donors or whatever. As I didn't do that, the
'anonymous' stuff is redundant. All of them are anonymous, except to me of
course. How else could I send pictures of my azaleas to everyone?

That sounds like an old Army Ranger joke I heard once. Are 'they' an ethnic
group? (I hope there's no Rangers here. They can be cruel buggers!)

Made mine anonymously, so must be I don't get a picture of your
azaleas!!!! I did, however, get a reciept.

Go check your email, Mr. Anonymous!

Those are some damn fine azaleas!! You should be here this time of
year. In Georgia azaleas grow so hardily they are almost pests! A week
or so ago, we posted the second highest pollen count ever recorded
anywhere!! I hate the taste of that ****!

We're getting an overly heavy dose of pollen also. Most of it is from oak
trees.

Luckily, the stuff doesn't bother me.

It doesn't bother me much, just have to clean it off of everything! It
comes at the perfect time of year for me to open my pool, and the stuff
lies on the water like an oil slick!


Lucky me. No pool!

Oh, I love the pool, it was my idea! It's really not much bother if you
learn the PROPER way to maintain it!


I found, while living in California, that the PROPER way to maintain a pool
is to say, "What a great pool." as you jump in the one owned by your
neighbor!

I'm not absolutely sure, but I have a very strong suspicion that's the
proper way to maintain a boat, as well.

Very likely. My pool is being redone as we wait for rains to subside. Been
ready for plaster for 2 months, but requires 10 days of no rain before they
plaster. When the pool was built in the early 70's was probably $5500.
$20k to rebuild.

Mine's the newer stainless steel walls, vinyl liner. Costs $1500 to
replace the liner, and it has a 15 year warranty. If yours isn't
freeform, ie it's a common shape, you can put in a vinyl liner over the
plaster. That's what most people are doing. Is the plaster flaking off
due to the water leaching calcium from it? That will happen if you
don't keep your calcium levels up. The pool store people really don't
know crap. For instance, once in awhile I'll take a water sample in to
see if I am on track with my testing. They ALWAYS tell me I need
several pounds of calcium because there isn't any. Well, it's vinyl, I
don't NEED it. They'll give some bull**** about why I do, but I don't.

Maybe you should through in a couple Tums every now and then. Might reduce
everyone's heartburn a bit, and keep the calcium levels up!

JohnH,

I recieved my reciept from richmondrace.org, but have not recieved a copy of
your pictures, you cheap ******* you.

Keep slugging, you should get 100% from these boaters, heck it cost more
than $20 to drive to the lake/bay/ocean and run your boat for 10 min.

It is a Gunite in ground pool. Had a crack in the plaster fixed in 1990
from the 1980 Greenville Fault quake. Was a crappy jop and rust stains from
a rebar to close to the surface. So all paster removed, new tile and coping
and new filter and equipment. Replace some copper lines and added a couple
of more returns for better circulation. Is a Free form kidney shaped pool.

Damn! If it's a regular kidney shape, they will make a custom liner for
it. You give them the dimensions, and they ship it to you. But, sounds
like you're too far into it to reinvent the wheel. My neighbor just
ordered a liner for his rectangular pool, with deep end for $700.

The pool lasted 30 years, and should be good for another 30 years. By then,
me at 93 years old, will not worry about it.
