Mr. Black,
If you're not too busy working on a new Vh1 show, or the new season of your own program, drop me a line. I'd love to have you write my blog for me.
Contact me here.
Sincerely,
Ken

not directly construction related, but kinda...

Admit it, you watch Arrested Development. And actually, it is construction related I suppose.
Hands down, the best show on television since Seinfeld. This crap is so well written, you can watch the same episode ten times and still not catch everything. We got the DVDs on Netflix, and we're watching season two right now.
I'm hoping that in another couple of weeks, I wont have time to watch TV. We'll see. The wait continues.
I may go over to the house and chop down a couple of trees this weekend. We'll see.

SOLD

sold the house. we listed it in the paper for a couple of weeks, and posted on craigslist. we had a couple of open houses. then i broke down and put it on the MLS through a website called redfin.com. sold in three days. actually, the buyer saw it on craigslist so the $600 i spent to put it on the mls didnt do me much good.
i am a believer in the redfin site though. check it out if you get a chance. you can even find old bill gates' home and see how much property tax he pays.
good luck!
as far as the project house goes, the plans are once again with the structural and as soon as they come back, the can go back to the city. we had one review and there were a few changes to be made to accomodate the basement and the excavation.
anyway, now that the other house is sold, i can worry a little more about this one. and we have the money to do it.
