The Waters Wake Up Call with Mike Waters · Fri May 16, 2025

Good morning!

Hey!

I visited you the other day.

I don't know if you remember that, but it was... what day was it?

Like, Tuesday?

Tuesday?

No, it's Tuesday.

No, I think it was... I think... What day of the week's today?

I don't know.

It was yesterday.

It had to be yesterday.

Yes.

No, it was two days ago.

Two

days ago.

It was Wednesday.

Wednesday, I believe

it was Wednesday.

Okay.

I have done so much this week.

I just...

It's been a crazy week.

Right?

Kind of.

Thank goodness, today's Friday.

I know.

What's that?

TGTF.

TGTF, everybody.

Thank goodness.

Today's Friday.

That's a new thing now, coined by My Lakes Complete Auto Care Zone.

Right.

Yes.

Yeah.

But it was good to see your place and to see.

So much going on.

I mean, everybody was busy and they were just, you could tell they were focused.

It was a great day for you to come in.

We had two

older

cars and they're getting worked on.

So you got to see some really cool cars.

Right.

Yeah.

An old muscle car and there was a commuter.

A

commuter.

An old commuter.

That thing's so cool.

And you got to meet

Jake.

That's

the most important.

I met Jake.

I hung out with Jake when I first got there.

And then when I was sitting waiting for my car, he came over and we were just kind of hanging out because I was sitting in the waiting room.

Yes.

He said, oh, I want to go see that new guy.

So he came over and

it's kind

of like

the therapy dog.

He comes and says, hey, it's all going to be all right.

Yeah.

Well, it's wonderful.

Yeah.

He's 13.

Yes.

He's just a sweetheart.

Yeah.

Gentle as a lamb.

Oh my gosh.

Yes.

He must be half lamb.

He might get a

little gray, so maybe.

Yeah, maybe that's it.

But I seriously recommend you go into Mile X, complete auto care on Sylvia Avenue, because these people work hard, they're focused, they do a great job, and you can get all the stuff done before next weekend hits.

And next weekend, by the way, Memorial Day weekend, a lot of people saying, I can't believe next week is Memorial Day weekend.

Well, it is.

A lot of people planning on car trips and...

Yeah.

And it's going to be a hot day today.

I hope your air conditioning is working, and especially Memorial Day when you do kind of a longer drive.

Right.

So to make sure AC is working, come on over, bring it to us.

We offer a free AC check.

We'll check your AC, make sure it's working.

If it's not quite working right, then we'll get you on the way to get it fixed so that way it is working correctly.

Very important.

I've had some, you know, just some things to help keep your air conditioning cool if it is working properly to keep it as cold as ice as you can.

And me being the hot man that I am, I certainly would love to hear these tips, Jen.

I prefer to have ice cubes blowing out at me.

I want my AC to be as cold as it can be.

Yeah.

I'm not a hot weather fan, believe it or not.

I'm not either.

No way.

No, I'm just not.

But

I think I'm going to come back.

When I die, I'm going to come back as a sweater.

Because I am a sweater now.

I appreciate the AC.

Right.

Get your AC done over at the MileX Complete AutoCare and then you come to me and I'll give you the DC and we'll crank tunes the rest of the day.

Absolutely.

Yeah.

Partners right here.

How many people do you see come in and they've waited too long?

It's a hot day and they don't have air conditioning.

We've seen quite a few now that is starting to get warm.

The air conditioning system is a closed loop system.

Okay.

Some people go to the storm by those can air.

The problem is when you do those, you don't know the pressures.

It's a very sensitive system.

Essentially what the system is doing is it's compressing and decompressing refrigerant.

And

that's how

it takes the warm air and turns it into cold air and recycles it back through the cold air, the cool air makes it colder.

So it's always

just looping around.

If you are not having cold air, a couple of things could be happening.

You either have a leak in the system, which is losing the refrigerant.

And when I'm talking refrigerant,

refrigerant,

refrigerant,

if I can spit that out today.

It's a crazy word.

A lot of people think of freon.

The technical name is refrigerant.

And it might

just be that you need a recharge of the system.

And then we'll find out if it's leaking.

And if it's leaking, then we'll take care of fixing the problem.

What

is

the problem?

We'll fix it.

Again, the million dollar word of the morning are two words.

air conditioning make sure it's working

yes

maintenance

let us take a look at it and like i said we offer that free ac check so we'll get you up and running and getting cool breezes as soon as we possibly can

and on your way to mylex if you get way too hot because the ac isn't working just stop by like kasey's go into the cooler grab a couple of bags of ice

And then when you get to the car, you rip open the bags and just scatter the ice all over your car, and that'll keep you cool, at least until you get to my likes to get it all fixed.

Don't worry,

it'll never melt.

You know, that's what we need next is unmeltable ice.

Oh, it's kind of scary, though, isn't it?

Yeah, there'd be some chemicals in there, but still, we'd be cool.

We would.

And I'm cool with that.

All right, I'll write a letter to my congressman.

It's my answer to everything, although it never solves anything.

I'll write a letter.

I remember back when I was a kid and we'd be driving the old...

station wagon down the road, and for some reason, my dad would not put on the air conditioner.

We didn't have air conditioning in the car.

I mean, we had air conditioning in the car.

But he didn't run it.

Yeah.

Money.

Right.

And then there was the house, the air conditioning.

Money.

I said, well, use my college fund.

Do whatever you need to do.

But please.

You keep it cool in here, dad.

Right?

It's

amazing, isn't it?

Yeah, it's amazing.

And thank you, thank you, thank you for keeping our cars cool.
