    1:05 - Wild grapes are edible, but a bit unpleasant if you're used to grapes from the grocery store. Tough bitter skin, meaty flesh, large seeds. However, they are great for making jelly, my grandmother used to do it every year, she had the purple variety. You can often pick out a whiff of grape scent in the breeze if there's a decent vine nearby, even if it's not currently bearing fruit you can still smell it. We had a vine of our own that was small, yet productive; unfortunately that cursed Oriental Bittersweet killed it off. It's been over ten years since, and we're STILL battling the Oriental Bittersweet.

    One time in my 15 year hvac career, I had a capacitor that was bulged out, I told the customer it was bad. I proceeded to show the customer (with my meter) that it was bad, guess what? It tested perfect! Wth!? It made a liar out of me! I convinced him to change it anyways because I figured it was going to be bad in the near future.

      Ain't this the truth and I gotta start doing this more often because I admit I don't ever really do it. Just the other day, I turned the disconnect breaker off which actually turned the compressor and fan motor off and when I went to pull the connections off the capacitor, thing blew up right in front of me. Sure enough, disconnect was bypassed and I assumed there was no power just because both comp and fan turned off.

    Don’t feel too bad about leaving things. I am certified master in the category! I’ve started using some of the Harbor Freight screwdrivers since they are cheap to replace. Wasn’t too surprised with the bad breaker. QO stands for quits outright! Good job on the fix

    Who in the hell would want an all electric water heater when you can have a bad ass natural gas tankless or a nice big 50-75 gallon natural gas tank or a hybrid? Makes sense sense to go electric on such items. Maybe one of the expensive Heat pump units, but not worth the money.
