My wife is from the east side suburbs of Cleveland and I lived in Pittsburgh for 8 years (college and grad school). For us a trip to Cleveland is not complete without a stop at Corky and Lenny's.

I still can't believe the deal you got on that Cobra.
I just read that the Mustang is the world's best selling car. Wonder if that's accurate.

During an acquisition by my current employer I was based in the Beachwood area for 2.5 months staying at the Hampton Inn on 271. Love Corky & Lenny's, ate there at least once/week then and when work takes me back to that area I always make it a point to stop. Didn't get there this time around as we were staying with friends in the North Royalton/Strongsville area.
I did my undergrad (Pitt) here as well, born and raised here too.
That is very impressive, especially since Camarones usually sells more in the U.S.

We had a family wedding at Heinz Chapel a few weeks ago so we went down a little early and showed the kids the Cathedral of Learning, Schenley Plaza, etc....gotta start them while they're young

Funny...Mrs. Carnaught is going there this week when she returns for a reunion.

FWIW, dry wall is installed horizontally, so at the most only the first sheet off the floor has to be replaced. And you don't not necessarily even have to replace all of that. Only the wet part has to be cut out and replaced.
Maybe you should get a quote from another guy who knows how to repair and not just replace.

Next time you leave for an extended period of time, in addition to shutting off the main water supply, at least flush the toilet(s) until the tank(s) are empty.
I would say shut off the water supply to the toilet, but I had a pretty bad experience doing that.
2017 MB E400 , 2015 MB GLK350, 2014 MB C250
You are correct, the wet areas do have to be cut out as soon as possible. The vanity will have to be replaced because it has to be ripped out and the base absorbed wzter....that still isn't a big deal. Still, what a stupid thing to happen!

Flushing the toilet until empty sounds like the logical thing to do, but, our understanding is you don't want to do that. That water keeps noxious gasses from entering the home. In fact, because of evaporation we put a layer of Saran wrap on the water so evaporation won't happen. We also fill traps in bathtub, shower and all sinks so water remains in the traps.
Florida has its own unique problems, water is extremely hard and along with heat rubber decorates quickly, so seals and flapper traps can breakdown. The next toilet will not have a trap system.
Take note though, don't empty the toilet or leave any trap dry....from what I understand.
2017 MB E400 , 2015 MB GLK350, 2014 MB C250
OF....damn.....that looks great. I love the profile....and the color!!!!! You deserve another 6 pack!
Emptying the tank, does not still leaves water in the trap. Also there is still enough water in the tank that the stopper won't dry out.
Overall, it was just some bad luck.
Another thing I do is turn the water heater down to the vacation setting or the lowest heat setting if it isn't marked "vacation". Years ago I was so paranoid that I even shut off the gas at the meter. Got to be an expert re-lighting the pilot for the water heater and the furnace as soon as we got home but I don't shut off the gas anymore. I'll take my chances just like the rest of the world does.
I have trained both of my sons to do what I do. Water leaks when you are gone for days WILL destroy a house.
You rich guys with 2 homes have all the luck.

bad news today though. caught a rock on the highway. Big divot with some crack lines. I will stop at glass shop tomorrow, but pretty sure not repairable. And last thing I felt like doing was paying for a new windshield this late in the game!

Bad luck for both of you!! Really sucks
You guys with all the clean cars.... I hate you all!!
Most of my weekend was spent doing chores and cleaning out my shed. I have to move it with the addition going onto my house.
It is 10x10 Rubbermaid type with a wood base I made for it. I'm hoping 5 or 6 of us can pick it up and move it the 20' it has to go. I remember when I bought it, it came in two boxes and two of us easily handled each one. Guess l will know soon enough. If I can't do it myself I guess I'll just have the contractor add that in.

A plastic one, if it looked nice, would be an interesting option.

It's been solid. I put it in 10 years ago and it still looks great and doesn't leak a drop.
I built a wooden base out of 2x4s and plywood and leveled it on bricks. Built it up from there. Did it myself in a day, just needed a pair of hands to finish up the roof.
Here is the one I have (same model, they never changed it). Oh and I was mistaken, 10x8

Speaking of hard water drops...
The X1 has some on each of the side view mirrors. I've tried invisible glass, vinegar and magic eraser without any success. Any tips for removing them?

I haven't had the problem but this is what Google says:

Come to think of it, I have heard the one about the toothpaste.

Not to be snarky but do A4 come in any other color? In my area I never seem to see anything else.

Once I cleared the snow I noticed he had knocked a tooth out of the grill. Luckily I found the piece and glued it back in. About a month later the sun was hitting the windshild just right and I notice a small crack in the windshield coming from the edge of the glass and ending behind the inspection sticker. Great! Just when I had decided to sell it in a few months.
Wasn't going to put a $300 windshild in a $1000 car so I just got a couple of those chip repair kits and shot some resin into it. Stopped it from spreading.
Was never sure it was from son's friend hitting me until a little while ago when I happened to be looking at the front of his car and saw the outling of my grill etched in his bumper. How he managed to acelerate enough on a snowy driveway to crack my windshield I'll never know but it must have required a special level of stupid.

Try using newspaper instead of paper towels. Evidently this is an old timers trick I never knew about until recently but it does work.

@driver100 - The car is a pseudo garage queen, it only has 23,600 miles on it despite being 3 years old. I have the benefit of taking public transportation to work so the car sits for the most part during the week. Also doesn't hurt that it's a manual and the wife can't drive it. The replacement will likely be an auto so it gets more use.
@oldfarmer50 - The main colors I see for the A4 around here are silver and black. My first choice was white on black or tan leather but I had to take what was available if I wanted a manual. As for the shine I don't think I do anything particularly special. I wash it with Meguiar's soap and dry with microfiber towels with a Meguiar's quick wax. I have the car fully detailed every spring as well. It helps that it's been almost continuously garaged in the time I've had it.
