Tie ball game. Elimination game. Bases loaded, 2 outs. Comeback groundball to the pitcher. HE THROWS HOME AND HITS THE BACKSTOP! WTF? Game over. Season over.
Well at least the Eagles won.....No wait.
Well at least the Flyers won their opening .....No wait.
Anyone have any tips for removing boogered up lug nuts? 19mm hex, but the socket won't slip on, and the next size up I only have in 12-point, and it slips around the hex.

19mm is exactly 3/4 in standard. I’d try a 13/16 or 11/16 if you have one. Or like Shawn said, if nothing else you can drive one on.
If it don’t bother me, it don’t bother me. Just leave me alone.
I tried 13/16, but too loose. I don't have a 20mm, either. I started to hammer the 19 and 3/4 sockets on, but backed off on that idea because I decided it needed new lugs, and there's no point in doing things twice. I worked at the troublesome lugs this morning with a file and a dremel, and have them at the point where I think I can pretty easily hammer the socket on. New lugs should be here Tuesday. Hopefully no flat tires in the next two days.

Do you have to pay capital gains tax on the difference between what you get for it and the cost basis?
I have no idea, and I am not actually going to trade it because of lug nuts, but from what I have just read from the IRS website, I think my cost basis is the Fair Market Value, or the adjusted cost basis, to the prior owner at the time of gifting, so in that case, no.
I also wonder whether it would be a Capital Gain if it is used to decrease the cost of another like purchase, similar to selling a primary residence and using the equity toward the purchase of a more expensive residence.

Gotta love Philadelphia ......
This is what my wife gets for ordering a bathroom shelf from a chinese website
Kinda works, i can store some tobacco in the toilet bowl, or use it for ash
If you set a cigar down while going to the bathroom, would it fall out? Looks kinda small.
It's only for your fat ash.
I may have forgot novas hockey bag in the box
But I hopped out as pre wash went by and grabbed it lol
Not the Hockey bag, but then again if you ever had kids that played, 5 minutes in the locker room would make you want to leave it outside
10 pm …still at the lounge watching the mariner’s game… top of 15th
A good cigar and the open road solve most problems.

Found these today while packing up
I don't have problems, just more work to do.
This weekend's theme is Octoberfest.
Jeez, I'da never guessed.
My daughter wasn't able to make it to the Ren Faire, but she's at the Kagurazaka Bakeneko Festival in Tokyo now.

Hammer the tight socket on is what I usually do.

Just drive it to the dealer and trade it in on a new car. Easy peasy.
True. I only paid $1 for this one, so whatever trade value they would give would be an astronomical ROI.
Sounds like we have an answer

All depends on the state how it’s figured. Check your state’s tax laws. The IRS will always find a way to say you owe them something.
