I think it's just the downtown businesses lighting up for the holiday season, followed by fireworks(?)\\

Considered going down to see it, but I'm not up for dealing with the traffic.

Maybe try a scrap-metal dealer? The part of a piano that holds the strings is, I think, usually made of a big honking piece of cast iron. A metals dealer might be willing to haul it away to get at the iron.

I was thinking of torching it, and then whatever doesnt burn, just taking to the scrap yard. Ideally though, I don't want to move it. It weighs a literal TON

$88 for an oil change? I'm glad that it's only once every 10,000 miles.

I almost considered taking it somewhere else, but Audi is the only is the only place that can reset the service timer.

Considered going down to see it, but I’m not up for dealing with the traffic.

Bands, carriage rides, a parade, visits with Santa, tree lightings, ice skating, unveiling of the Macy’s holiday windows, and fireworks, to give a partial list of events:

http://www.downtownpittsburgh.com/play/ ... night-2012

Also, there’s tons of traffic and massive, choking crowds, including oblivious families pushing giant strollers that block the entire ****ing sidewalk so you can’t get past them without walking in the ****ing street and risking being run over by a ****ing bus. Lady, your precious little offspring isn’t even two years old and is never gonna remember this **** anyway, so how about you stay home, or leave the brat home, and get out of my ****ing way?

To bleed them get something like a cup to hold water and open the bleeder valve and let the air out until water starts to run, then close the valve and you're done, there's nothing else to do it's good to go, and I'm sure you can figure out the hand test. Touch them, if they're all around the same temp good, if one is noticeably colder then bleed it.

I'm always curious about people who come up with freaky things like that. First of all, it must require so much practice that I'd just say to hell with it. It's a gimmick that's extremely impressive and fun, yet in the end useless. I guess he could work in a circus.

Sorry, but this is BS. While he is in time with the song for the most part, the keys he's hitting are not right with the notes at all. It's impressive that he can bounce the balls in time with the music, though.

Sorry to hear that Froggy.

My random contribution:

I often fall asleep with Cartoon Network on and don't use the sleep timer b/c my 3 month old gets us up frequently. I discovered that around 5 AM, there is a show called Assy McGee. It is a set of legs with a butt that is a cop. Just legs and butt. He does anything you and I would do... like swish mouthwash... in his b-hole. Who the hell comes up with that? And who the hell watches it enough to validate it being an actual TV show?

Probably people who leave their TV on sleep until 5 AM (or the EST equivalent) :pop:

As of 5am this morning, yes. So weird. I'd say it semi makes sense for someone totally high or messed up on drugs like Aqua Teen Hunger Force, but it's on at a time where that doesn't even make sense.

I'm also weirded out by the show on Adult Swim starring John C Reiley. Also ungodly weird and not at all funny/amusing.
