Panzade is correct. I guess I ought to hire him to accounting and bookkeeping.
I would love to have the whole crew over to Dys and Diane's for coffee and discussion of the Roper appliances we intend to install. Just can't get away right now.
Petunias and tigerlillies are the best bet for a yard such as they have, trust me.

Throughout my career, I have been known as mr Fix it. If there is a big problem, the senior people always came looking for the prince.

I do charge a lot for it though + expenses Twisted Evil

To quote the Music Man:
"Welcome to the picnic
Where you can eat all the food you bring yourself."

We offer no incentives, insurance, operating costs, etc. All persons are required to sign a contractor's contract before beginning work on Dys n Diane's home.

I'm not so good at fixing things but won't you need business cards and advertising? You'll probably need a designer for these things. I can do that.

Every job site needs a dreamer. I'll apply for that post. I'll just stand around all day, restin' on my shovel, starin' at the sky and pointing out the obvious. :wink:


Nah, I kid. I've been doing reno's since I was knee high to a grasshopper. Ha! But I don't do insulation.

Yer both hired. Where's all the customers?

By the way, if you have low flow toilets in your home, never put the globs of blue stuff in the tank. It will cause the toilet to no longer flush.

Be sure to wash the dryer filter with warm soapy water every month or two. Try a simple test. Run water on the filter (at the sink, not in the dryer). Chances are water can't pass through. Hence the need to wash them.

But Edgar, most of the conservatives on a2k are convinced we are growing peyote and marijuana in our back yard. Those innocent petunias and tigerlilies will ruin our provocative reputations.
How about datura? It's beautiful but it smells pretty awful.

BTW, I'll provide the brownies, hee, hee, hee.

Brownies for pay? Sounds like a bargain to me. I hope the Prince is amenable.

The Prince should come just to add his own style and elan to the group. I can hardly wait to meet him in London.

Anyone know much about dryers ? Mine is on the fritz. It tumbles and gets hot and blows, but doesn't dry the clothes. I'm thinking maybe a clogged air line somewhere. ?

Petunias do well where I live now - lusciously spilling from hanging baskets and over low walls.

Check the vent, it is probably clogged up also check the wall cap and make sure there is a screen. If not animals will get in where it is warm.

Yeah, I checked all that stuff. The problem seems to be internal.
Littlek, not to fear . No baked critters.
Yet.
