    MAGA Gas Prices

    Chevron dropped to $3.20 😱 They've always been the highest in town. We have 3 Chevrons. $3.20 s a 29 cent drop since the day after the election. One station in town is $3.10 and I haven't checked the cheapest station yet, it's 6 miles away. It's always lower than everyone else.

    Thought of the day .

    Must have a flooring place on Faceplant. There never were a lot of installers on flooring sites because unlike most of us, they had no questions.... they know EVERYTHING! 😁 The ones you mentioned and others just disappeared from the planet.....it's not like there are a half a dozen other...

    Thought of the day .

    Saves time. While at the job last week fitting transitions, there wasn't time to start the stairs and get just two done and leave for a week. I have one day and it must be on a Friday. It's over 1/2 hour from town and in addition to the carpeted stairs I have two LVP stair nose transitions to...

    Discussing politics and religion

    I'll wait for the hearings to decide if I agree on Trump's appointments. I think Kennedy will be good, ....I mean 10 minutes after his appointment had been announced, big pharma stock started a nose dive. Maybe the end of personal handshakes between the House, Senate and big pharma..... It...

    Homan? Man O man is he crystal clear with zero need for followup questions. He don't play word games, not even slightly. He was the right guy then and will be the right guy again for the job.

    What did you do today?

    We even do specialty end returns at Randy's Specialty Flooring Trims and Election Meddling. 😁 I secured the return using Super glue, then mixed up some JB Weld Quick and packed it down inside the cavity of the trim to make the joint solid so I can do the finish cuts without worrying about it...

    What did you do today?

    That pipe that came loose and dropped probably needed a strap on it somewhere. Those plastic compression joints are aimed at sealing, not so much handling weight. Maybe the fitting just wasn't tight enough.

    Don't use the sink actually means use the sink soon. 😁

    What did you do today?

    Homeowner has spent months in his spare time doing the install. It looks to be the whole house. .....Looks good. ....dogs, kids, wife and possibly the old man there too.

    Does butterfly season ever end in the east? Seems a bit late.

    I spent a month and a half working for a fellow that's sold birds for probably 65 years and he was explaining how smart they are, especially their memories. That fella knows you pretty well.

    What did you do today?

    No absolute rules where to start and stop a reducer in a door way. The reducers I installed were 2" wide, so if I had been the one I stalling the floor in the bathroom, I would have the molding start here at the yellow line, about 1/8 inch back from where I did here. I'd let the reducer flow...

    Discussing politics and religion

    We all have our faults. I live with mine, but I'm not changing them. If I did, I'd be depressed that Trump wiped Hollywood and media's faces in their little pet doggies piles of lawn 💩. .....no, I'm not depressed one bit because I've accepted my faults rather than stress over them. See how easy...

    I'm measuring a room and don't stairs tomorrow 30 miles from town. They had carpet installed by Lowes (140 miles away) The carpet was installed 3 times, each time a failure. They ended up refunding her money.... So she got the carpet job for free. Still doesn't like it, but it's been on for 2...

    Discussing politics and religion

    She has zero balance in her argument. She hates Trump and makes an argument against Trump and none else to make a point in perceived psychology. Trump in no way shape or form wanted a band of random, unorganized ***** supporters to damage the capitol and achieve absolutely nothing. If he...

    "Will no one relieve me of this meddlesome priest?" "A group of loyal knights, regarding his angry outburst as a call to action, assassinated Becket—in the very cathedral over which he presided. Ummmmm. I absolutely agree. 😉 "I want to tell you, Justice Kavanaugh and Justice Gorsuch, you have...

    What did you do today?

    Tire shop sounded pretty fair. Your dad and I had different skill sets. Making mechanical motion into reality makes my brain smoke. That's more of an engineering thing. I'm more about measuring and fitting with a twist of problem solving. .....and OCD helps in that process. or I'm just nuts. 😁

    What did you do today?

    Thanks....to my hack saw and a couple of strokes from a file. 😁 I did cut the maximum width angles on my 1996 Makita chop saw. Using the template, I cut, or traced all my lines into the trim with a utility knife..... Pencil lines are way to fat no matter how sharp. This was upstairs, so I didn't...

    Thought of the day .

    I'm glad it only did this for 45 seconds. It did this about 2 1/2 or hours ago. I drove to the warehouse to pre-cut some pad and tackstrip for Fridays job. It's 3 miles away. My brother asked for a ride to the market. It's 2 miles away and he walks there on a fairly regular basis for...
