gint hype is bad. gimp hype is worse though

[Derick]

breaker is not gfci. the breaker box is only a couple years old, wiring is all new, is solidly connected. everything is grounded very well, including all the junction boxes. everything is sealed very well. I don't expect any trouble.

I think they have GFCI breakers you can buy and put in the box, in place of normal ones.

they have both gfi outlets and gfi breakers, anytime your dealing with electricity in a wet environment you want to have a gfi on the first outlet in the circuit (Either the first outlet or breaker, not both). you also want to protect the outlet in a sealed box.

It doesn't get wet here. Pretty sure the code here doesn't require GFCI. Just recently they changed it to be mandatory in bathrooms, but thats it I think. I need an updated book.

those are minimum codes. you want to protect it. be smart use a gfi. I know you can afford to buy one.

The Super Bowl is going to suck, i"m not sure I'm even going to watch. I don't give a Funk or a Wagnall about either team other than I don't like the Giants. Also I realize yesterday I have far too many Giants fans as Facebook friends. I may have to start unfriending them...

I thought the Giant's Niners game was awful. I thought both teams played terrible (3 and out followed by another 3 and out) so I think Brady and the Pat's end up with another ring.

The only good thing about this superbowl is that I dont know anyone either friend or family who is a NE Pats fan so if they win I dont lose any sleep over it. On the other hand....GO PATRIOTS!!!!

JDubb, you sounds like you're still bitter from the packers loss last week. I would be too. I was pulling for the 49ers to win but I'll pull for the Giants to beat NE.

Yeah probably... But I don't like the Giants and don't care about the Pat's, meh.

don't unfriend them. Do what I do, when there is an annoying person, just block their posts

Even better, categorized them as "Giants Fan" and then you can just block their posts til after the hype dies away.

Your joking right? cause if the gints win then the hype will never die, trust me.

That's why I think I need to unfriend them :grin:

I'm speaking in regards to JDubb's FB pals. He can just block himself from seeing their posts until things quiet down.

it will get GFCI. I have a dozen of the GFCI outlets, just didn't have the weather proof cover yet.

[LeNeve]

I did have a seal and weather proof cover for the regular two plug outlet thing though. so thats what I went with temporarily.

I don't blame you. When the Vikings lost the 2009 NFC Championship game I was so disgusted I didn't watch the Super Bowl at all that year.

Truckers say GFCIs are for pussies.

[Donginator]

I thought the first meeting between the Giants/Pats in 2008 was one of the best, so I hope we get another game like 2008

[Beckster]

While I feel for what this kid went through. This little girl is pretty damn brave.

I hate the one on our house, it pops too damn easily.

It's better than getting electrocuted.

you might want to check to see if you have 2 of them on the same circuit. They should not pop. Possible that you have an undersided breaker in the box
