Just talked to the restoration superintendent, and he said that once we get an estimate for all the work that needs to be done to put Humpty Dumpty back together again he could have all new subfloors and floors back in our house in about 10 days. He'll be out early next week to put together an estimate and scope of work.

I also just spoke with a plumber, because while the floors are out we might as well have all the 100 year old pipes updated.

Buy a house, they said.

Fuck them and the horse they rode in on.

Rofl. The irony of a bar that only plays women's sports being owned by a woman named Jillian Hiscock. :rofl:

Related/unrelated, I've been watching most of the WNBA games through the season and now the finals. The WNBA app is the only "TV" service we pay for because S wanted it (former Division 1 BB player).

he didn't specify what structure this septum was bridging, after all

cloacal septum is my guess
OH WE TALKING CLOACAL SEPTUM:


The first dinosaur butthole ever discovered is shedding light where the sun don't shine. The discovery reveals how dinosaurs used this multipurpose opening — scientifically known as a cloacal vent — for pooping, peeing, breeding and egg laying.

The dinosaur's derrière is so well preserved, researchers could see the remnants of two small bulges by its "back door," which might have housed musky scent glands that the reptile possibly used during courtship — an anatomical quirk also seen in living crocodilians, said scientists who studied the specimen.

Although this dinosaur's caboose shares some characteristics with the backsides of some living creatures, it's also a one-of-a-kind opening, the researchers found. "The anatomy is unique," study lead researcher Jakob Vinther, a paleobiologist at the University of Bristol in the United Kingdom, told Live Science. It doesn't quite look like the opening on birds, which are the closest living relatives of dinosaurs. It does look a bit like the back opening on a crocodile, he said, but it's different in some ways
. "It's its own cloaca, shaped in its perfect, unique way,"

Girlfriend's thumb was swelling up on Sunday, midday.

She just got back from urgent care, where xrays show that she broke it. Not sure how.....but that sucks.

Perfect time to just do the electrical, insulation, a new roof, and a second story.
I mean, why not?
:D
Im fairness, there are some pretty generous benefits this year for making energy efficient upgrades. Insulation, induction ranges, etc. Worth looking into while the patient is open on the table.

When I was remodeling my house before we moved in, I realized I had about 3/4 of the plumbing exposed and it was all copper. So I bit the bullet and exposed the rest and called a plumber to re plumb everything!

I hear you. We are doing that to this house too. Got caught on the wrong end of the abode modernization cycle.
We definitely called it ‘peeling the onion’.
When we took off all of the paneling (not even drywall), 90% of the outlets HD visible burn marks, some even with char on the 1.5” x 3” studs.
And that is no joke: the Boise cascade prefabs were built this way to reduce weight For transit.
