Had a client up in the Canadian Rockies...a hotel resort that required internet. The satellite connection was like $300 per month back in 2001.

Nothing like driving my CL-S up in that area back then in the dead of winter.


Best fun I ever had was taking it out to the frozen lake...

...of course, the GM of the resort came barreling out of his office waving frantically for me to get off the ice before the park rangers saw. It's like a $2000 fine. Oopsh.

Whew... I've been spared a certain disastrous death.

Apparently ejaculating 1-2 twice a day does not appear to lower testosterone levels. I was being told by some guy it was in my best interest to stop cumming, if I'm looking to beef up. Turns out, that's not exactly true. If anything, there's a lack of scientific evidence to say outright what the truth is, but it seems to lean towards being ok. Long time (1 month +) with out sex is even worse for T levels. Hey, at least now I know I don't have to stop flogging the bishop.

My thoughts exactly on electric pressure washers but it's highly rated, over 2000 psi supposedly
and only 130 bucks.

2000psi isn't that high... I think my el cheapo Ryobi gas pressure washer pushes 2600 or 2700... and I got that on sale for under $200 CAN. I wish it had more powah though. I'd rather have more and scale back the pressure, rather than not have enough.

what I really want is the Subaru pressure washer, from Costco. That thing looks badass, for the price. I might upgrade to it next year, if they still have it.

Ive yet to use an electric pressure washer that was as good as the cheapest gas powered washers. But maybe it's just my limited experience with them. They seem cheap as fuck.

Sure, that would explain why I'm not a hulking person. But, yeah...don't care for the stuff.

2000 psi can strip paint.. more is better for certain things, but not all.

Strip clothes too? So, if I pointed it at someone, it'd strip off their clothes?

Agreed. You don't always need more. But it's nice to have it when you need it.

I assume youre betting 2000psi if you're using the laser nozzle. Anything else (the wide spraying nozzles) and I get the feeling the pressure levels drop. It's the difference between stripping the paint off your deck in 1 hour, vs 2 hours. Efficiency is never a bad thing.

or am I just making shit up?

Just bought the 2000 psi Ryobi Electric Pressure Washer. Did a great job on my front step and walk... Haven't tried it on my patio yet. Cleans the siding well too! $183 or so after taxes.
