Water heater question?
My plumber wants to charge me $185 to run 2 lines from the output of my water heater. (This is not a minimum charge, it's added onto a $315 water heater install price) This seems excessive? Isn't it just a matter of inserting a "Y" connector?
(One line goes to sink, one line goes to washing machine. Old water heater was set up same way)

3 AnswersMaintenance & Repairs1 decade agoWhat band has this tour bus?
Today I saw a very expensive looking tour bus on the freeway. I'm curious what band it was, the back had some unkown squigly line design, and there was a license plate that said " Do you wanna get rocked?"
I don't think it was AC/DC. Hmmm....
1 AnswerOther - Music1 decade agoRowe v. Wade. A good thing? ?
Just wondering how you all feel about a lawyer making millions while laughing at niave supporters.
Is slaughtering innocent children really helping women's rights? It's frightening when you think about how the wool has been thrusted over many people's eyes.
Does it matter that "Rowe" has nightmares every night about the hell that she's imposed on America, and since has also changed her views on pre-birth murder 180 degrees?

5 AnswersPersonal Finance1 decade agoDo liberals automatically consider all Republicans "Bush Clones"? ?
Bush = Wealthy silver-spoon baby who helps rich oil tycoons.
McCain= Senile old man who can't decide if he's Rep or Dem.
Palin = Religious Right Wacko
Schwarzanegger = my main man, awesome dude who holds bureaucrats accountable by force.
(Half way kidding)
What do these people have in common ? I say nothing.
Should liberals learn what conservative values are before tagging such a broad stereotype to all Republicans?
11 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoWould Vince McMahon be dumb not to sign "Joe the Plumber" for WWE? ?
Just wondering, he already looks like a pro wrestler. I wonder how long it will take the WWE to pick up on this. I can see it now, wearing overalls with a plunger over his shoulder strutting towards the ring.
Announcer:
"Here comes Joe the Plumber, and you know he practices without a license folks!"
9 AnswersWrestling1 decade agoWhy do Femenists agree with abortion, yet want to abolish the death penalty?
They want to murder innocent life, and protect criminal life.
Can anyone unravel this hypocracy and explain why "Feminist" automatically equals Liberal? It seems that most liberals take advantage of females and exploit them under false pretenses.

He's done a great job in California IMO, making state government accountable. Should he fight to overturn the "Must be born in USA to be president" law?
9 AnswersElections1 decade agoQuestion for Air Force about Military transport aircraft?
Today I was at an Air Force base and heard some very large window-less aircraft taking off. They were extremely loud (Louder than commercial aircraft), and had a very distinct buzzing/humming sound coming from the turbines. This sound was very unusual. What kind of aircraft is this?
Also, what causes this sound?

I'm pretty good with computers, but I have very little knowledge with video handling.
How would I go about transfering old VHS home movies to my computer for editing? Are there any good/free video editing software available.
I just want to make a small video collage on DVD, and quality isn't that important.
3 AnswersCamcorders1 decade agoIs Nancy Grace making a career off of a missing child? ?
Does anyone else see this? Do you think she is doing it to get attention, or to genuinely help find a child?
The part that bugs me, is that she's giving airtime to scum-bags like the bountyhunter. What would be her motivation for agreeing to having people like this on the show? Curious.
5 AnswersMedia & Journalism1 decade agoWhat do you think about US Mexicans flying the Mexican flag from their vehicles? ?
Seems to pretty much seal their allegiance to another country. Today I witnessed someone flying two Mexican flags from their brand new SUV. Hmmm, I wonder if they'd be driving that SUV if they still lived in the country that they have blind allegiance to.
I have no problem with someone flying a Mexican flag, next to, or occompanied by an American flag...but what I was witness to today was a shame.
We Americans have our own flag, thanks.
What do you think about immigrants who come to this country, and have no respect or allegiance to old glory?
BTW.. I Said immigrants, NOT Mexicans, i would like to believe that most Mexicans are not like this.

4 AnswersElections1 decade agoIn attempt to understand liberals? ?
I'm at a loss where liberals love large governments.
I'm of the persuasion that government should be as small as possible. Take DMV for example. These people hate their jobs, hate us (The consumer), and get paid vastly above what they are worth.
The entire DMV *could* be taken care of online. However, liberals seem to think that the DMV "Creates Jobs" and etc, etc. This is just one miniscule example of the thousands of ways that our government squanders our dollar on every whim.
Then, when they run out of money because of dumb policy, they just raise taxes!!!
Why would anyone think that larger burocracies would solve anything"?
12 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoWould a small "Build your own PC" company survive with competition like Dell etc?
Would it be totally impossible to start a small computer company nowadays? Especially with companies like Dell...that make computers to order. And HP that make computers dirt cheap.
What would be a few selling points that would convince people to buy "Computer X" instead of buying from a big company?
