In NYC, it is.  ZING.

Because your apartment is small.

So you get NYC-sized furniture.

Actually apart from my couch set, I have all my SF pieces.

Got a new garage door opener installed yesterday since the old one broke (gears stripped inside the motor or something).  It's a belt-driven unit and almost completely silent, and also I had the guy install a keypad opener on the outside so I can easily go in and out while doing yardwork.

The one weird thing is that I can't get it to sync with my car's homelink button.  The previous garage door synced up in like 10 seconds without any trouble whatsoever.

Does it... slide?

You live in the middle of nowhere, do you really need to close your garage door when you are doing yardwork?

He does if he doesn't want critters in his garage. You ever try and dig possum out of your garage? Fuckers are tough.

[Grey Fox]

That's a good reason.

I've never seen a Possum outside of a zoo. The danger, here,  is to get a wolf in your garage(not really).

With global warming, the range of opossums has just extended northwards to Toronto. The first time I saw one on the street at night, I thought I was hallucinating a gigantic rat. 

[Ed Anger]

Best way to deal with a possum is a .38 round to its head.

[CountDeMoney]

Ed double taps them.  What with the playing dead trick.

[Ed Anger]

Those fuckers are tough. I should have used the shotgun.
