I had a terrible fly problem a few weeks ago, and bought one and put it in my house. It was popping every few seconds for a couple days, but now maybe once a day, and I havent seen a fly in days either.
wow maybe i should get one.

I'm a good swimmer because I've been doing it for so long and someone trained me, basically. If you're doing backstroke for 35 minutes that's good enough to get a real pair of swimming goggles. You'll notice a difference.
How much do you pay, you prefer tyr? Like amazon? Personally got the regularly 30 buck vanquisher 3.0 for 20 bucks. Maybe i should open it now and keep it. I meant the speedo vanq....

Pretty effective though it's more of an area control. Basically the bugs are attracted to the light. Inside is live wiring, which will shock anything that make contact(ppl as well). I have a small one for indoors to deal with mosquitoes when they get in. Always clears them out of the house.
Oh like mosquitoes and flies are both super super attracted to bright lights? Does the lantern get lots of flies?

They don't wear out that fast I just feel like buying a new one every year. I think you'll notice a big difference between dollar store junk and real ones. It depends what you're doing. Are you going to be doing a real swimming workout - get a real pair. Are you just lounging around in a pool - it probably doesn't matter then.
I swim in like an la fitness 25 foot swimming pool for like 35 mins every few days. Never tried super premium swim goggles . The dollar tree ones were surprisingly good like much much better than a pair for 6 bucks from menards. The dollar tree ones had no elastic band though. The band could not stretch at all around your head, elastic. But even like this no elastic it could keep out water. You swim like a whole whole lot, are you really good swimmer? I can only do the backstroke.

I swim for real. Tyr and speedo are both good for goggles. I buy a new pair every year and basically just buy them at random and have no problem. I wouldn't buy cheap walmart ones though. Get speedo or tyr, they haven't let me down in like 15 years.
You buy a new tyr, one every year, they wear out that fast? Never tried like 40 buck swimming googles. Actually bought a dollar tree one for 1.25 plus tax, was useable , a litte more than useable.

Or you swim a lot? Has like tyr easily surpassed speedo, in sales and quality? like 25 yrs ago speedo might have easily been king. Iirc most olympians now wear tyr. Another thing, are these goggles that are like 35 bucks much much better than like 15 buck walmart ones?

I watched when it aired, im rewatching it from the beginning along with Talk Ville Podcast.

Why that annoys me is that it reduces their characters and making them shallow. I know it gets better, and I know this was the style back then, especially on WB/CW. S2 Chloe/Lana/Clark love triangle was so bad.

Anyway on episode 11 on S3, forgot how dark it gets for Lex, I feel so bad for him.
I'm forgetting episode 11, season 3? Love this show , like have every episode on disc. So underrated, underappreciated imo. I kinda liked season 2. Let me ask you something, did you consider smallville to have more relationship stuff and romance in it than most tv shows? Do you kinda dislike this sort of thing though? I kind of like this stuff though. I know that interstingly enough that the creator of this show said he doubts that this show could have been made , today, he said this like a few yrs ago though. Kinda sad in my opinion.

On s3 now on Smallville. Still enjoying it but what annoys me is whenever Chloe and Lana are in a scene with eachother they only talk about Clark. I know this was pretty much how female characters were written and still are. But yeh.

S2 Finale and S3 opening was really great tho.
why did that irritate you, they only talk about......? Yeah the smallville makers said they tried especially hard to make the 1st and last episodes of the season really really great. Makes sense why they would do that. This show absolutely deserved to top the weekly nielsen ratings , top viewed shows in the u.s. every week. Iirc it was usually around the 100th most viewed show of the week iirc.
You are just now starting to watch any smallville episodes? The show first came out like 20 or over 25 yrs ago or something like that?

Very occasionally. Couldnt get into it but theres some good stuff.

I listened to it in the mid to late 2000s. That and Love Line with Adam Corolla and Dr. Drew.

Howard's voice is very distinct and that's gotta help in radio. I've always liked it.
Yeah good pt , distinct helps. I think his height helped a lot imo, if he was 5 8... Iirc he is like not considered conventionally attractive though...., like very handsome . Not sure if you agree . Have heard that before.

Havent watched this show since it early 2000.

Still on s1 and its fun to watch.

And then watching TalkVille Podcast with Michael Rosenbaum and Tom Welling talking about every episode. They have guests sometimes too like Kristin Kreuk, creators of the show.

Its nice to get some insight on the production ans why they made some choices.

Worst part is that its gonna double my watchtime since the podcast episodes are 1 hour.
Yeah the podcast seems really cool. Welling looks like he aged more much more so than rosenbaum, sadly. Smallville was great. Easily the best tv show i've ever watched. Doesn't seem to be too popular on this site though. And it never got big ratings. Idk....
