Handy Man

Thought I would show some of the home projects I'm especially proud of . I use these same talents when I work on the Monty!

Requires MS PowerPoint or viewer

Darn it Brad, you never told me that you were coming to West Virginia on a photo essay. That doesn't look like a Colorado stick house!!!

So, Brad, when are you moving to (insert any state name) and setting up a home improvement shop?

Now I know why the information on this forum is invaluable, just look at the quality!

So Brad we are getting the stick built ready to sell so we can go full time. Can you stop by and do some minor repairs for us so we can get it sold. Inspection, what inspection?

Brad,

Down here in the south we got a lot better use for them rad-di-a-tors! Ya gotta condense that corn licker in somethin'. An' on that new 3400, if'n you don't hook those drain pipes to anythin', you don't gotta go to no dumpstation. Just let'er fly! You ain't never seen no pipes in a out house have ye? Bubba don't put no cover on the 'lectric box so he can fetch those critters for dinner. Who needs one-a-them microwave contraptions? Fri-ca-seed critter, it don't get no better than that. Ya'll come on down now, ya hear!!
