Anthems and Protests ---
While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible.
With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it.
Thank you for understanding.

Every time I work on one of my vehicles something breaks! Then autozone switches up the rules on you every year. Now to get the core on a brake caliper you need to bring the bracket as well! Then when you go to remove the bracket a bolt breaks! Story of my life....
It's because they usually include the bracket with the caliper now, which is stupid as hell. All they're going to do is reman your caliper and clean your old bracket for resale. So, like in your case, you wound up with a spindle that has a bolt snapped off in it. Now you need a spindle. If it's a spindle with a press in wheel bearing, then you might as well buy the loaded one, and take it up the rear. Places like Auto Zone, O'Reiley's, and Advance have hilarious core charges on top of it. I like when you rent tools from them, and the employee who received them last didn't inspect them. Now you've got a broken tool that you can't use, and you're going to have to convince them that you're not the one who broke it in order to get your money back. This is exactly what happened to me at Auto Zone last year when I had to change a head gasket on my Caterpillar 950. The torque wrench I got from them would break loose at like 15lbs. lol. That's probably not going to seat a head gasket on an industrial front end loader.
I very much dislike the heat. I look at it like this... when it's cold you can layer up and try to stay warm. Blankets. Hoodies... etc... but when it's hot there is only so much you can take off before... ... well... no one wants to see "this" in it's birthday suit.....
We're going to 107 today and flirting with 100 all weekend into the weekend. Luckily I'm headed camping near the coast where it's supposed to be mid 70's. First trip with the new pup!!
I'll take the heat 10 times out of 10. Sun tan. Burn fat. Can actually work in it. All you gotta do is hydrate. Cold, on the other hand? Everything's frozen to the ground. Can't find anything. Have to condition your hands, which sucks worse and worse as you get older. Have so much on that you can barely work on anything. Everything mechanical stops working. Come down with a cold that doesn't go away for a week. It's a no brainer for me.

I fully understand where you're coming from.

I'm always the one to bump the complaint thread it seems, but it was raining in my house last night. We had this huge storm in July that forced us to have to replace our roof. The roofers who showed up didn't finish the job, as of yet, ran out of materials ... keep waking up in the morning thinking this will be the day they show up to finish our roof ... Big storm again last night...Even before we replaced our roof, we didn't have leaks like last night ...

My bedroom isn't a bedroom, it's a train station with a bed in it. People come and go at will. I have no privacy, no knocking. It's just "Come right in, forget all about what I want."

You ever think of charging for an entrance ticket? Have a sign outside your door saying "Welcome Aboard - Only $5".....or whatever you feel is a worthy price.

One more thing....maybe charge $6 to enter, with a $1 rebate when they exit. Give them an incentive to not stick around! (hmmmm, now I think I understand why I've been getting cash whenever I leave places.)
