Seeing hot, drunk, naked college women eating each other out on ~$200k boats is worth the brain eating virus. :6

I know how the girls out there like to dance half naked on dirty tree stumps in the middle of the forest and that's really cool because you have no brain eating viruses, but we have the real deal out here. :6

I just found out I'm moving to AZ. Can I stay on your couch for a week or two until I find a place?

for what its worth...my door was doing the same thing and I had a guy come out and look at it. He put some lube on the screw(not a chain) and the rollers. He also noticed that right at the bottom about a foot from the groung the door would make contact with the molding around the door. A little sanding at it has worked ever sinse. Im sure this will halp you none but thats my story...lol good luck. oh BTY it cost me 69.99 for that. The lube he used was 3 bucks at HDepot...lol

Mine is a screw drive and the whole thing looks like it's pretty well lubed. Even when the door isn't hooked up to the drive it does the same ----.

Last night I went out to ---- with it and it was working perfectly. Up and down, no problem. I guess it just doesn't want to work in the daytime. :7

Even if the door is down and -0- sunlight is coming in, it does the same ----. Last night it worked fine. This morning it didn't work. When I got home from work it did work. Now it does not work. :S This thing has a mind of its own. I don't want to buya new one because it seems like this one wants to work sometimes, then something happens and it stops working. :7

BTW, the green lighted one is already in the position to get teh most sunlight. They really don't get much sunlight anyways. This morning at about 8:30am the sun wasn't even close to hitting that side of the house yet and the damn thing still didn't work. :3
