Are speakeasys a thing now or is that a local deal?

Are speakeasys a thing now or is that a local deal?

They seem less popular now that prohibition ended.

Still the best place to meet a dame IMO

God doesn't want me to go to derbyhole.

Its one thing for me not to go to my FIL's 90th birthday, it another thing to go to the derby instead.

Wife is kind of anti-FBGs now that her membership got denied by the powers that be. She thinks other FBG wives are allowed and thinks she's being discriminated against. Any civil rights attorneys in the house?

My Mrs. TF alias doesn't work anymore

 

[El Floppo]

Anybody do quartz countertops? Thoughts good or bad?

Silestone. They look great and the Mrs. is very happy. Have had them for 11 years now with no problems.

We have that as well. Love it besides for some slight chipping on the edges from use. If you're going to get that, get an corner/edge that isn't a 90-degree right angle.

if I remember correctly we paid a bit extra to get a "double ogee edge". I'll have to look it up to be sure. At any rate not a single crack or chip, and no stains or burns, though Mrs. DW sets hot stuff on it frequently.

Cool. We found a green color we like (wife likes) and will go this route. Countertops + stainless steel sink (install and all) = $3,660. Not too too bad. Cabinets another $3,900.

Keep in mind Home Depot wanted to resurface/reface our existing cabinets, put in quartz countertops and a back splash for $23,000.

we almost went with quartz and was around the same price. We found a nice granite we liked. So far so good

I need to do some projects for normal 99% people again. I don't know what's more strange- the prices on my projects, or that I've gotten so used to the prices that I see 23k and can't imagine doing even part of a kitchen for that.

eta: meanwhile, I'm essentially living paycheck to paycheck while I design kitchens that cost more than most people's homes.

 

[belljr]

Lol... i meant our quartz price was quoted around 4k

I put in all new hardwood, carpet, island, backspalsh, new tile upstairs bath, new vanity, downstairs backspaksh, granite, new appliances and think I spent 30k total

I feel like I've been shovelling #### for the last month. I shovel and shovel, but more keeps coming in. When I have some perspective later to look back, I'm going to have to figure out how in the hell it got this point. but it feels like every step along the way where I've had to let go of some decisions for later (which typically get resolved on their own), every single one of them is coming back to punish me. It's like every decision I've made has been wrong, and now when I need to be wrapping up what I've still got in front of me, I'm having to spend all my time fixing the things that didn't go right previously. #### upon ####. #### begets ####. I'm in ####### #### and feeling... ####ty. Can't remember feeling this buried and hopeless... ugh... in a long time. maybe karma for renegging on the wonderful job opportunity offered me earlier.

There was a time when I created about 3 aliases a day via proxy and freeby email. And a certain mod would shut them down within a few hours.

I'm not kidding when I say there must have been about 30.

How much money is bentley committing suicide by bike for?

Right now it's $425. And none of it actually goes to me. And the spandex doesn't leave much to the imagination. I'm going to see things I can't unsee spending two days on the road (and sleeping in a big tent) with a group of coworkers.

And your route doesn't go through Giddings, so you can't even stop at City Meat Market for a brisket sandwich to go.
