Hey man, several years ago we contracted to replace about 1500 sq ft. of tile, in kitchen, dining, family, livingroom, and hallway. Them suckers brought in jackhammers for three days of the removal stage (we vacated to a local hotel), and I swear we were a full year getting all the dust cleaned from their work...... I mean there was thinset and tile dust in places one would not imagine.... Yes, that's a very dirty and tough job.................... BTW, I later tackled retiling of the two baths where I simply laid the new tile over the old (after all the recommended prep, of course). That was ten years ago and so far nothing has come undone.Quote:

Charles, I've never managed a forum but in the past I have been web master of three separate web sites where the general public seemed to have constant bitches and gripes. It is a thankless chore in that role, as I'm sure it is in yours' to try to keep everyone happy. l have the utmost of respect for what you do. Thanks, and keep up the good work.
Just so it's clear. What you are saying is you don't care and you've never cared to maintain any sense of decorum, fairness, or civility on the forum, correct? If that's the case, I stand corrected and I'm OK with it and will conduct myself accordingly. I just want to be clear that the Rules of the Forum are that, with the exception of bots and spammers, there are No Rules?Quote:

So, maybe you are in one of those neighborhoods where you will be subject to that new Google service.
Is anyone paying attention to Syria and U.S. involvement? Sounds like we could be sending in ground troops and more military planes? WW3 is coming soon!
Your tile will be on forever as long as tile under is solid and not loose
I concur with SI Charles. This is a good site and you do good work here. In addition i might add...I really appreciate your belief in free speech and how you let it play out here rather than ban, suspend, etc for the smallest of infractions. Yes you suspended me as you should have. I really left you no choice, i was an extreme case. Suspending me was the right thing to do. Free speech is not always perfect...but it sure beats the hell out of censorship. As you have suggested before members have a way of working things out among themselves. I hope that has finally happened. We have some real solid guys here...I hope they stick around.
I admit i have obviously been part of the problem for the past year but that was only to call out mainly one person and the way that one person conducted himself here. Unfortunately while doing so true members (not aliases) had to endure a lot of bs and for that i do apologize to them but other than that i have zero regrets.
Today has been a good day here. Minimal bs. Almost like the way it was before last October. Hopefully we are back on track now and it can remain that way.
Thanks Charles.
I don't know what is worse, removing the tile or the thin set. All i know is everything hurts. I feel like it was me against the New England Patriots and I WON but in serious painage.
Charles... I am all for suspending forum members when they call you derogatory names or posting pornographic images. Other than that, I love this forum. It's definitely nothing like BM's, it's better. You're a good man Charlie Brown!!! :)
Heck... I will go as far as charging people $100-$200 annually to use your forum. I would pay you. Think about it!
Just so you understand, I know every single person that posts in my favor. We are all friends from the Satwaves days. We were friends long before whats his name came along. There are no aliases here but we do know there was one for whats his name.
You can definitely tell where they used a lot of thin set versus very little. Some tiles popped right up and others held their ground.

It sounds interesting but I am huge AT&T shareholder. It just wouldn't make sense for me to unsubscribe from U-Verse and go to Google. I own close to 60K shares of AT&T. I get a $1.88 per share annually which is .47 cents every quarter, that's $28,200 every quarter. They have a long, long history of raising their dividend annually by .04 cents to. It's like getting a nice pay raise every year. :)

Edit: guess i shouldn't read to much into it....just the pessimist in me.
The guess is as good as any though IMO the amounts are not very large 2 mn, 200k, 100k. They never end up re buying the shares they sell. It is more part of their compensation than anything. At some point they will exercise and sell more at higher conversion prices. Joan Lordi Amble still has exercisable options at .09. What a deal:money: I used to get all caught up in the Form 4 especially when Mel was bailing on his stock to the tune of 200 mn shares or so. Think the SP actually went up during the time frame of those sells. If I remember correctly Liberty was still buying at the time to get to control.Quote:

Just checking in to see whats up. Great close today.
Glad to see it was friendly day on the board. I don't mind the back and forth though you can count me in the DM Denco camp regarding the pre-Oct 14 stuff. Anyway I have to say that this is my favorite post of all time. F-ing classic! But who drinks vodka OJ with steak!
