I believe the blue label version has some 60 year old Scotch in it! JW does not have an age statement because it is blended Scotch. Usually only single malts will have an age.

I don't find one to be better than the other. They are quite different, and can be equally good, depending on what you are consuming them with. Pepsi is very sweet; Coke is dry and spicy.

We are beginning to renovate our basement. It was finished by the previous owner probably about 20-25 years ago. I removed the wood paneling and was delighted to find that the walls were fully framed...

UPDATE: I stopped by Home Depot a few weeks ago to get a rough service bulb. The clerk showed me a bulb that was labeled as having a shatterproof coating on it. Instead, I found a garage door...

Thanks to all! I'm leaning towards vibration from the front door. It's a very heavy, solid wood slab, and seems to slam very easily (especially since I replaced the warped sweep). Not to mention...

Thanks for your input. I have not noticed the brightness changing, but have not spent much time out there looking for that.

I have actually tried a couple of CFL bulbs in this location, but they...

Hello, and thanks in advance for any help that is offered.

The bulb in the light fixture over our front porch burns out frequently, approximately twice per month. It happens year-round, so it's...

Thank you for the response.

We did have the mastic tested and it does not contain asbestos.

Removing it is a last-ditch opiton, because it's a big floor, approximately 1200 sf. Plus, we'd like...

Last year we had vinyl/asbestos tile removed from our basement.
The cement floor now has a thick residue of mastic, which was mostly cured, but does get a little sticky at times. We are thinking of...

Here is a timeline to help explain. The problem occurs at #9

1. Last month I opened my Trane 1200XL compressor to clean out dead leaves, etc.
2. After cleaning and closing up, I reinserted the...

We have a lamp post in our front yard that we find unsightly. I would like to remove it. The light fixture is fed by an underground conduit that climbs the post, and it is controlled by a switch in...

Thanks! What does it mean to "rod" the main line?
I have access to a clean out in the "Y" joint where the basement toilet joins the main drain.
Should I "rod" that? Should I call Roto-Rooter or...

I've been noticing puddles of water in the basement on 2 mornings this week. Finally realized the basement toilet has been overflowing after we use the first floor bathroom.

Today I noticed after...

We've had 3-4 estimates for exterior painting, but I have decided to do it myself. All the estimates specified (after prep work) applying one coat of oil-based primer and one coat of latex paint.

I recently attempted to update a basic 3-prong outlet to a GFCI outlet (so that I could connect a do-it-yourself, low-voltage, exterior lighting kit to this outlet). It seemed to work for the most...

I just bought a flush mount light fixture to replace the old one on the foyer ceiling. There is a warning label on the fixture that reads "For supply connections use wire rated for at least 90...

Hi - I'm replacing the light fixture on our bedroom ceiling.

When I removed the old fixture I found a red wire from the house connected to the black leads on the old fixture, a white wire from the...

Hi - we have baseboard hot water heat. When we go to bed at night we turn down the temperature on the thermostat, so the system shuts off for a bit as it cools down.

After a few minutes we start...

Thanks for the help, folks. We had the oil company come take a look. They replaced the mixing valve and things seem better now.

The first switch is a three-way switch connected to an interior ceiling fixture containing a 75 watt bulb; the middle switch is connected to an external motion sensor light with 2 light bulbs (unsure...

Hello again, and thank you for your continud help. I'm very sorry, but I gave you the wrong model number. It's actually the EJ500. The install manual is here:

Thanks! It's an Intermatic 15 Amp, 120/240/277, 7-day Programmable Time Switch, model #SS8C.

Hi - I recently installed a timer switch for my front porch light. It seems to be working fine. However, after installing it I noticed the package said "for use in double gang box." I have it...

Oftentimes some of the capabilities of these cable or sat receivers are disabled. You can try calling your service provider and asking.

Otherwise, you could buy a switcher. You can connect 2-4...

You just need to connect the DVD player to one of the available inputs on the back of the television. If available on your DVD player use a "component" connection, which requires connecting three...

Our house has an EverHot tankless hot water system that feeds off our oil-fired boiler (we have forced hot water baseboards). It looks like an older type of hot water system to me, but maybe not. ...

Hi - My washing machine drains into a pipe in the basement floor. A utility sink drains into the same pipe a few inches "down stream" from the washing machine. When the washing machine drains, the...
