    Not worth a new thread, so posting it here.

    Paradigmsearch gets to live...

    Been having ~100 degree heat here and no A/C of any sort. More of same to come.

    Waiting list before A/C guy shows up with the freon.

    Swamp cooler totally broken and a rusting hulk.

    Paradigmsearch doomed...

    Not!

    Punched hole through front of rusting, falling-apart swamp cooler. Nothing to lose; thing was already toast and needs to be replaced. I'm soon to be on a waiting list for that as well.

    Fished around and found hose leading to top of swamp cooler. This is the hose that trickles the water down over the filters.Yanked the hose out through the hole.

    Introduced it to the garden hose with Mr. Duct Tape and a couple hose clamps.

    Turned water on low pressure. Water happily soaking the filters.

    Back inside the house. Put fan in front of swamp cooler. Turned it on full blast, sucking the air right through the soaked filters.

    Nice cool air...

        I thought of that, but it's not exactly a how-to that's much in demand. And as for CW, we all know how those go... big_smile

    And btw, I've written 4, 500 word articles today, wrote a hub and have painted a fish. Unfortunately, before I published the hub I didn't check to see whether I'd saved the last couple of paragraphs.( you know when you keep getting the *save draft* message?) Anyway, published and hadn't saved- Passed QAP though, so will finish tomorrow. lol

      My only claim to fame today is 2 hub updates. That's where I stumbled across the Thai and Russian women. http://hubpages.com/forum/topic/113367

    Yes I saw this, although it left me with some unanswered questions. How are these *girls* women verified, and by whom???

    PDS, you may have, inadvertently, had a digital lady boy experience!

      I had to look that up. I wished I hadn't. I wonder what kind of ads Google is going to start showing me now... lol

        Probably the same ones as you're seeing now! lol

        Maths, verified women and lady boys! Now that's a conundrum, what is the connection?

        *the mind boggles*
