    Several methods have been suggested. #1 is stop walking your dog in the desert. Women do not hang out in deserts. I got 2 words for you my chaste friend ... dog park.

    Ginormous wusses need jobs too, ya know. All I know is that it was a good thing for me that the door frames were set out of plumb. Fixing that is time consuming and it means you carry and screw fewer sheets. If the sheets had been 10's and the work was straight forward I would be hurtin' for certain.

    I want all you guys who post from work to have a nice day ... no ... really.

    I sympathize Buddy! I've only done drywall as DIY for myself and friends. It's not what I would call "fun". I just can't decide which part I like least - hauling and hanging, or mudding.

    I want all you guys who post from work to have a nice day ... no ... really.
    Why, thank-you! You have yourself a great day too! If it wasn't for work, I don't know where I'd find the time to post at all!

    Wahoo! Just scored some free tickets to Zappa plays Zappa from my favorite local radio station.

    Going August 3rd in Burlington VT. Nice little birthday present albeit a couple of days after.

    Always been a FZ fan but was not able to see him when he was alive. Next best thing is to see and hear his son's interpretation of his music.

    I love hanging rock. It's my favorite part of the construction process. Plumbing doors would be one of my least. That's probably why out of 9 doors in my basement, only 2 are plumb. The rest I gave up on and said "good enough".

    I wish that I was going to your bars. I was already accounting for that...
