Damn motor went out on the blower fan for my downstairs ac unit. I had a capacitor of the same size and swapped it out. Same result. I don’t have a motor that will fit it. Service guy can’t get here until tomorrow. I had a squirrel cage fan up in my shop, different size, speed, and horsepower but it works. I jury rigged the hell out of it and plugged it in. Redneck as hell, but I’m not sweating my balls off. Why does this always seem to happen on Sundays when a service call costs an arm and a leg?

WTH is up with our HVACs? It's almost like my units have a bet with yours ...

Murphy's Law. What else?
 
Happy belated birthday to my dearly departed friend @CowpokeU. Sorry to hear of your demise, brother!!

Something happened yesterday that made me think of you..... We were at the Walmart (yeah, in the south you HAVE to say The Walmart....not just Walmart) and checked out in the garden section. Walked out through the cage they have there and there was a guy at the final exit that said, "receipt". So, the wife handed him our receipt. Then I heard something along the lines of "I really don't care what you guys have cause I'm too high out here". Thought the dude said he was too hot out here, but I quipped back "too high?" And he's like yeah....hahahaha....too high. I just ate a few edibles because I have a toothache and I'm flying and I really don't give a shit. Wife lamented later in the evening that she didn't ask him where she could get some of said edibles......

HVAC guy is here. ECM blower motor failure. $979.00 for a damn blower motor.

Replying to add… it’s a variable speed motor with a built in control module, not just a simple ac motor. That explains the high cost somewhat, but he said the price at his cost has gone up 30% from last year. Thanks Brandon…

That corn shuckin' feller looks pretty slick, but you disgust me with that orange and blue. :FSU: I hope y'all have a splendiferous time, (yeah I typed that). I've spent a lot of time right there working on paychecks and pu....cats, I'm a cat person.

How's the beach look? I have a lot of time
invested in it after the BP oil spill.

There is nothing better than meeting up with old military buddies. Us submariners still avoid eye contact though.

I only quoted you to see if splendiferous was underlined in red. Freakin impressive. I tip my hat, good sir.
