One line of the osng, if I remember it correctly, goes something like..<BR/><B>"Mayor Richard Dalry built McCormick Place twice, because once was noit good enough"</B><BR/><BR/>That pretty much summarizes my home repair philosophy. I gutted and re-did our bathroom a few years back, when idealism was still an option. I then re-did the bathrooms few years later, specifically the floor...which was gutted to the joists, re-built, ceramic tiled the first time. It looks fine...now. Sorry that I can't offer you advice if you just want to do that bathroom project once.<BR/>But if you have plans on doing it twice...I'm your man. At the worst, I can offer a tapestry of Croatian cursing, a necessary on the job tool that's quite effective at clearing out the "I-would-have-done-it-this-way" folks that will stalk you like vultures on road-kill.DarkoVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11572734667248592785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329706.post-1130510485337637272005-10-28T10:41:00.000-04:002005-10-28T10:41:00.000-04:00Thanks for the encouragement, CP.
