Just responded to an insult

O shit I'm sorry did I say something bad about your orange god? If I did too ******* bad. Every word I said was true and if you are too stupid to realize that than I would think that you are the idiot.

Goddammit, you guys will never admit to the fact that Trump is only looking out for himself. The only thing that he ever wants is what can get him more money, power (which is money ),or keep his name in the news. He willkeep scamming til the day he dies. There are two reasons he keeps teasing...

If there is a buck to scam Trump is your man.

Don't know, my point was that there were lead water pipes in the street. They are doing it smart, if you already have the street tore up replace everything so you don't have to do it again if something fails in a few years. Most of these lines are 60 to90 years old. They will fail eventually.

You won't find many lead pipes inside a house. Mostly they are the supply lines under the street and up to the house. Our small town is slowly redoing the older streets and putting in new water and sewer lines. Finding lots of lead water lines in the oldest parts of town.

OK Einstein, when you slide the small pipe into the expanded end of the pipe it can only go in 1-1.5 inches and then it stops because it butts up to the necked down expansion. If the end of the small pipe is square, there will be a hairline opening .001" or less. The solder does not enter the...

its the concerned guy that I was asking ,, and youre right the water touchs the solder,,, Sorry, got confused with the quote stream

how does it make it water tight if it never touches the water?? OK I'll make it really simple. You have a sweat joint with say a straight pipe and an elbow. You clean the outside of the pipe and the inside of the elbow, then you slide the elbow onto the pipe. Fits kinda snug but is not water...

How many copper pipes have you soldered? None, didn't think so. I made my living working with just that medium. The configuration of the soldered joint never allows the water to contact the solder. The solder just holds the pipe in place. Just STFU, you don't know shit. If you aren't smart...

It's not my job to rebuild after a hurricane that happened 1200 miles from me but we seem to bail out FL and TX quite a lot. You guys forget we are a country, 50 united States. That means that we help each other out when someone needs it.

I don't think solder ever comes in contact with the water on a copper pipe joint if it is done right. So that is a non-issue as well. The solder is what makes the joints watertight, of course it comes into contact with the water. That's why they banned it.

Agree 100% As Barney Fife used to say you have to" nip.. it in the bud." Get on top of it or spend a lot of time trying to catch up.

I've never had any luck with those no kill traps, use the old fashioned spring traps. If your objective is to catch this mouse and release it outside don't bother. Now that it knows how nice it is in the house (warm, food,water,no predators )it will never stay outside. Kill it with a trap or...

Get rid of that mouse as fast as you can. Trust me on this. One mouse just leads to more ,the mice outside can smell this one and will find a way in. Just because you have things in a plastic tote they are not safe, mice can chew through the steel on a grain bin, so plastic won't even slow it...
