  3. We had a similar experience with our current house. The sellers threw in a home warranty, and after the first winter, the furnace died. The company sent a repair guy who said the parts he needed weren't made anymore, but he could "rig something up" for us. I said, "If they don't make the parts to repair it, then it should be replaced." The home warranty company didn't see it that way. Eventually, they gave us the amount the guy quoted to "fix" it, which we applied to a new furnace. A few months later, they contacted us to ask if we planned to renew. We got a good laugh out of that.
  4. I thought it came from cricket. Turns out, we're both right. https://www.history.com/news/who-invented-baseball
  5. She found out that he has a goulfriend on the side.
  6. They've found artifacts too, but it's still questionable whether the jars in question constituted voltaic cells or were just used as storage vessels. So far, there's no evidence of them having powered anything or having been strung together to increase their voltage.
  7. In the misty morning fog with Our, our hearts a-thumping and you My brown-eyed girl And you, my brown-eyed girl
  8. I can agree that Mahomes seems to be better than Allen, but if he could single-handedly compensate for a porous O-line and a defense that chokes in the playoffs, then he'd have three or four rings instead of two. The question is whether Mahomes is truly better than Allen, or if he simply benefits from solid protection and throwing to the best TE in the league right now. If Mahomes had to carry the team on his shoulders, would he play hero ball and throw more picks the way Josh does? Conversely, if Josh had KC's line and offensive weapons, would he be more calm and methodical in the pocket?
  9. Mahomes got eaten alive by the Bucs defense in the SB a few years ago. They responded by beefing up their O-line, and it showed last night. I agree with the OP - improve the O-line and the rest falls into place.
  10. You're a rich girl, and you've gone too far 'Cause you know it don't matter anyway You can rely on the old man's money You can rely on the old man's money
  11. That commercial also said that Canada invented the battery. Well, a Canadian did invent the alkaline cell, but the battery was invented by Alessandro Volta in Italy. You could argue that Canada made the first commercially-viable battery, in the same way that Edison created the first commercially-viable light bulb, although he didn't invent the light bulb itself. True, but James Naismith was a Canadian.
  12. Based on the number of points scored, both teams should fire their DCs. And the Eagles should fire their Special Teams Coordinator because of that punt return. That's how this works, right?
  13. It won't take long for me to tell you who I am Well you hear this voice right now well that's pretty much all I am I'm bailing on my life Cause I'm wailing on my life So please, just gimme a kiss

  18. In general, extended warranties are good for the company, not for the consumer, otherwise, the company wouldn't offer them. Statistically, if a product is going to fail, it usually does so during the standard warranty period. If it doesn't fail by then, it'll probably outlast the extended warranty too. A good rule of thumb: If the extended warranty is more than 10% of the product price, then it's a rip-off.
  19. I’ve lost a few more hairs; I think I’m going bald
