the local contractor/inspectors would only approve a by the code book design
so I had to convince the head guy an actual city employee the code don't work over cat 3
and I wanted stronger better thicker glue and screws not nailed 6 ft laps not butted metal sheets
was not quick cheap or eazy but it is strong and over code




Damn, I can only imagine how that conversation must have gone... I bet it took a long time. I may just try to do it and hope no one notices... hahaha...

You're only concentrating on half the story though. Extremes on either side will cause a reflexive pendulum effect to tha other side.

You're the only person on the left I've heard talk about the grand solar minimum. It's always right wingers because the left wants to use weather to institute more government boots on the neck.

In 5 years let's revisit the yearly temps thing and look at where we land. And let's look at where they're placing the recording devices (near mechanical heat sources, for example) and we'll know more.

The roof sounds pretty excellent, actually.

Communism came and went in "Mother Russia".

When you visit Red Square / The Kremlin nowadays you will probably feel like you're on Hollyweird Boulevard in LA.

Josef Stalin and Vladimir Lenin impersonators hassle tourists for photos at $20 a pop.

I really LOVE the image of ersatz Stalin munching McDonalds fries while Lenin sits with none! LOL





Here are the "Heros of Marxism" dividing up their daily capitalist earnings:



Capitalism has uplifted more human beings from oppression, misery and poverty than any system yet devised by the mind of man.

Lol at the fries comment.

An investment guy pointed out that the uplifting statement about capitalism is true by illustrating that regardless of wealth status most people have access to the same products and food (that the rich have access to). Meaning that most people can afford a car, they drink the same soda and eat very similar foods. In past systems very few people could afford some things and those people had access to much better quality of food, shelter and clothing.
Warren Buffet drinks the same commercial drinks as middle and even lower income America.

Wait wait wait... Did you really say that the Nazi party was just pretending to be Socialist?


You've got to be kidding and I missed the nuance.

You obviously don't know who it was. Tell us who invented the big lie. I guarantee you don't actually know.

Some of us have done that. They just stomped their feet and called us names, then started crying. That's what liberal/socialist/leftists do. Then they burn your house down in the middle of the night, or just key your car.

A Neo- NAZI would also define as a Socialist, as an ethnic national socialist.

OK, I'm not seeing the difference





The only thing I see is that the first group doesn't seem to have any females with them. I wonder why.
