Oops! Bathroom miscalculation

Not in using it, but in the stuff we got to put in to Darlene’s bathroom. Since the new light is a bit taller (it extends above and below the base), the medicine cabinet (which is the same size as the old one) won’t fir in the space the old one used to. The top […]

Star Wars!

There are probably spoilers contained within… I saw it at the 12:01AM show, and the 5 regular shows the next day starting at 9AM. The first show was pretty good, but felt lacking in a number of areas. When I saw it the next morning with the small non-rowdy audience it was a MUCH better […]

Property suckiness!

The Hulsey property next to ours has been put on the market with a target towards contractors who might want to split up the property and build multiple units. They have 18000 sq. ft. so they could easily put 4 houses on there. We need to get out of here fast or figure out some […]

More destruction

Last night we pulled the carpet from 2/3 of the master bedroom. That used to be high quality carpet and I learned that then the installation isn’t too old that it’s pretty easy to remove carpet tack strips in mostly one piece. The floors in the master bedroom are in really good shape over all. […]

Foryou, it is most certainly okay to kill an evilperson, if it is for justice and peace. Youalso don’t belive in mourning all the time andthink that once […]

Are there any techno big bands?

I’m talking about 5, 10, 15, 20 DJs on a stage each with their own set up spinning simultaneously. I’m thinking they could each have their own focus like drums or melodic or backing. Maybe have 2 DJs for each “part” so they can trade and line stuff up. Would you need a director to […]
