I guess the reason I didn't use the screw on the thermostat was I didn't want to have antifreeze come out and make a mess and I was bored and doing other stuff under the hood.
Bored, that's has to be the first time I heard the us of that term used while working on and trying to solve a problem on an engine.

I squeezed the hoze while the coolant was in it while the car was running and it burped my system just fine. I did have to do it a bunch of times, but it worked.

Or we just park the car with the nose uphill and let the air burp out the filler neck of the radiator.

that's just hilarious

Why? If there's air in the radiator, you can't get it out at the thermostat bleeder...
