I posted on Angi yesterday, looking for some estimates to do my basement waterproofing job. Planning to do it myself but some estimates are always useful. This way I know how much I am saving, and maybe get some good ideas.

I got a call from a spray foam insulation place. That sounds like a good idea instead of using tar and membrane. It's a poured concrete basement, but 60 years old so I'm sure it's not perfectly smooth any more. I also won't use that black corrugated plastic pipe, but PVC instead.

Got the first looker at my Honda coming in about an hour,....and THEN I can get stoned!! And I think the fair started today...I am already thinking "junk food"....I know Jeff isn't going to share that cheesecake! ;-)

If they are digging near a home, it means there's plenty of others in the area, usually not their first choice for a burrow.

There's too many. And they tend to stay away from my garden but every once in a while one needs to be taken care of. I'm not killing them for fun. I've come home to a trashed garden a few times. It's a lot of work, time and money.

Not only that. They fuck up the yard big time. I have a shipping container that is probably 8" out of level side to side because of them. You know how much it costs to rent a excavator to reset that?

Well the Honda motorcycle is sold! I was nice and held it for the first guy that called...Guess where that got me? Nice guys finish last, he low balled me after riding it, raving about the condition, etc....He offered me $500 less because it's "cash money"... I said cash is the only thing I will accept, so, um, goodbye!!

Then sold it to caller number 2, an old fart like me from Rochester! Well apparently not like me, he can still ride!! And I have a backup if that deal falls through for any reason.

So yes, the motorcycle market IS hot!! Take a look on your local Craigslist or Facebook, and you may be shocked! Old bikes are priced for more than they sold for new.

At my previous house we had groundhogs ad infinitum.


We live trapped and relocated 8, in one season, before acquiescing to acceptance.

Living within city limits prevents sniper activities.

It took great self control not to go all Carl Spackler on them.

Are there any peculiar orders in the air?
