over & over & over

this is what we tell clients ALL DAY LONG when the temp drops... sigh.... Myth: I will use about 1000 gallons a year I have a 500 gallon tank I need to fill it twice a year I will fill it in the summer when prices are lower Truth: You will use about 1200 gallons a year You will use about 80% (or 960) of those gallons in a 5 mo period (Nov-March) We HIGHLY recommend a 5-6 week KEEP CHECK cycle to ensure you do not run out during that time.

Speaking of cameras...we found one listed on Craigslist... the people returned our call...set up a time to meet... and nothing. They've not returned our calls. So, what....? Did they decide they listed it for too cheap & relisted for more money? WTF? Altho, in all the time we've been using CL, this is the first negative encounter. Wish you could rate the flakes, tho, ya know? Speaking of flakes, work rolls on. Today is not too bad... deposit is done. Bad debt listing still awaits, as well as slogging thru stuff that Boss2 found on Veteran's desk and wants me to verify the status of since the time they ca...
