    Could it be you ran it for awhile with the valve closed, and the pump worked so hard it superheated? Leave it off for an hour, check the temp on it before you turn it back on. If it is cool, fire the pump back up and check it every 5-10 minutes or so. If it continues to superheat and the jets...

    Grilled potatoes

    This is an easy one, and is a big hit with everyone I've fed it to. Get new potatoes or red potatoes, and cut them into bite sized peices. Put the potatoes on heavy aluminum foil, large enough to make as flat a pouch as you can. If you are making lots of potatoes, make serveral pouches. They...

    Calculating how many gallons my pool is.

    I've got a larger in ground vynil lined pool. I just changed the liner, and had it converted to SWCG. My question is how many gallons it holds. It's 40'x18', 8' deep at the deep end, 3' deep at the shallow, it has an accent curve at the shallow end bowing out another 30", and a contured...
