I am not angry although I am in shock.

Roofing contractor called me with estimate to roof my mom's vacant house. Holy **** snacks! :shocked: :shocked:

Okay, steep steep roof. Also a 10x15 flat section in need of rubber roofy. But still, yikes!


I think the crazy high estimates have become the "thanks, but no thanks" of the construction biz...just got an estimate for 2.5X what I expected on a small job here...granted, it would be a PITB little job for someone, but still...

Did some checking online regarding costs and it is high end but factor in the flat roof and steep steep roof and chimney removal (just down through attic) it's maybe not insane. Just never priced this out before. My current roof was all redone and buried in the cost of my big addition/remodel so never priced out a reroof before.
 
He's not exactly dreamy, but those better looking coach t-shirts should work at least with Mad Fran. Of course that would have been safe even if we had hired Robert Strong or the mountain troll in Harry Potter.
 
Sooooo, I've been a little absent for the past several days. Did something bad happen to close III or was it just a size issue? (TWSS)

Also, I'm going to read this new thread title as Random Thoughts IV (like intravenous) since it is the lifeblood of many of us Fanatics.

It was just it's time. Sometimes, when a RTT gets so old, it goes to live on this special farm....

RT III won the triple crown of threads and now is just a stud. RT IV is its first offspring.
 
So I noticed this on BMB's signature:

"2013 2014 Cyclone Fanatic Poster of the Year"

Am I missing something? I thought Rulzzz was the 2014 poster of the year.
 
When the hoopla dies down some I'll start a thread with some old slides I found and scanned from the first season at Hilton. I don't even remember taking them but score board shows us beating the Huskers.
