  1. Well the good news is we have a decent sized tractor with a bucket and blade so I will survive fine. The bad news is Daplumma and Bec's with Mom and Pops are all sitting on the beach in Costa Rica laughing at me I am sure. I'm off to get some extra fuel for the tractor before it starts that nasty white stuff falling from the sky. Art
  2. Well the storm is almost here and the forcast is set for 18" to 24" before it is all over with. It seems it would be rain except for Canadas generous donation of the cold air.... So in the same spirit that you gave the cold air to us. We ( The Southern Contingency) Have officially decided to not send any Warm air up North till you stop your unwanted cold air attack... Feel free to Email this note to all of your friends since we are working on a limited budget here at the Contingency Thank you for your attention to this note. Leader of the Southern Contingency Art

  9. Being so far away I won't be able to join in on the Tyler Event like I would like too. The online auctions while fun it seems in the past they had a few bad elements that Our fearless leader begrudgingly had to bring to light. So I figured it was a good way to help a cause that I have helped in the past. So yes I will send my almost worthless American dollars to Canada before they run out of any value. The good news is every time one of them blood sucking mosquitoes goes to bite me I will show her how I had one of her sisters mounted that should slow the buggers down. Art
  10. To Tylers Parents Chris (Spiel) was kind enough to tie a special fly for me and would not take payment so I decided to send it to you all in his name. Please send me a paypal notice for $50.00 to [email protected] If that is not possible send me an address that I can mail a check to. Art

  15. Hey Lew As you know I am a plumber so I install quite a few countertops and get to see them a few years later as I visit the houses for other plumbing issues. I am not against natural stones but I have found if you can find a pattern you like in the solid Dupont materials then they have my vote hands down. The weight of the natural stones sometimes means the cabinets need to be reinforced (not a big deal but something to ask the installer about). Islands that have overhangs so you can put a chair under are not well supported and will find any pressure cracks in natural stone. The corners on stone unless rounded are tough on the hips when you run into them. While Corian is not any softer the ability to work an edge is easier and cheaper. The seams are the weakest point in naturals and are dictated by the size of the stone but also the weight of the stone so you will have more exposed joints in the project. The solid surfaces Dupont use the same resin they are made of to make the joints so you have no visible lines and they are as strong as the top. Any of your average damage that is done with a knife cut or other can usually be sanded/buffed out the damage to stone is permanent unless you have it professionally buffed out. The ability of naturals and Corian to resist damage is greater than the effort it takes to damage the laminate tops. Hope this all helps and good luck on your choices. Art
  16. soooo can you tie me a mosquito? I need it to lure the real ones away from my ass while I am up North this summer. art
  17. Dawg you in here yet?? Sure is quiet tonight feels like I am the only one in here. Art
  18. both good choices but I choose the Nissan because I have a Titan and they have been quick to make sure I am happy on any issues and recalls they have. Both minimum. Art
  19. send me a p.m. for my next step bud. Art
  20. Car dealerships are funny about the credit card thing. I wanted to buy A Mini Cooper and was going to pay for it using the card so I got a 1% discount back. They informed me that I could only charge $3000.00 max the rest could be a personal check... go figure. I guess that they can't absorb the percentage or don't want the risk of it being a bad card? Art
