    Re: Gas Grill Struggle

    Re: Gas Grill Struggle

    Yeah, and I'm shocked we need computers to run the engine of our car, apply the brakes, or brush our teeth but that is the way of the world.

    Bird, It wasn't a wear issue or a time to failure issue. Both of the units that were defective had handling problems. One unit had potential MFG problems but handling problems too. In one case...

    Re: Gas Grill Struggle

    I'm not familiar with "Evening scented Nightstalks" and Google didn't help. If you still refer to night blooming jasmine then partially burying the pot will not save the plant from our cold weather....
