Met 30 years ago at college, we were introduced during the first of 2 "coed weekends" at Niagara University during mid January. We hung out and that was it. Eventually we ended up together on St. Pattys day (she is hugely Irish, one of 15 kids, the Otooles of Long Island). Been married for 27 years now. Not one complaint (so far)

Certainly more complex than brain science

Does he have Chuck Norris on retainer. Chuck could cool the oceans with his icy stare!

Well, the pavers are kiln fired right? How appropriate Seriously, he is awaiting fire on the wesy coast, I am waiting for a hurricane season.....this is why I miss Buffalo

Scary, that may represent 68% of this board.....

I have been a subscriber since 1990 or so, I have the base programming, as low as I can go, everytime I talk to them they say I am one of the earlier NFL package subscribers, but I still cannot get just the ticket, I need the basic subscription.

Snot

Have thought of many times in english, never to be used mainly.

Is it normal to look onto your shoulders and see one the doctors hands on each one during the procedure? Did they have mood lighting? Glad to see you survived!

My issue is I want to just be higher than the houses nearby, not trying to make the flood plain go away. The previous owner passed on the chance to have the town do the re-levelling in the early 90s after a few years of flooding. All, if not most of the houses in my street were given a huge discount for a re-leveling to a higher pitch at the town prices, not at a regular Joe price. The owners (they were owners of this as a rental property) decided to skip the work since it would have cost em maybe 1000 bucks.

We live on a small bay on the south shore of long island. We have a storm sewer that empties into the bay through our bulkhead. When we have storm surges, or extremely high tides (2-3 times a year) water travels up the storm sewer to the street. From the street it starts coming up the driveway to the house. The lower level is a garage that is converted to mixed use (workshop/gameroom). When the water comes up it gets into the workshop/gameroom. In 2005 we got hit pretty bad, 10 inches of standing water, we had to gut the whole lower level. Post 2005, we installed a french drain system with a sump pumping the water to the sewer system. The interior walls were constructed 3 1/2 inches from the foundation walls and divert any water to the french drain system. It has worked for the last few years, but as hurricane season approaches, I constantly wonder if I could improve the grading of the property by raising the concrete around the perimeter, I just didnt want to tear up the existing concrete before trying something like this.

I have a flooding problem and wanted to know if it is possible to pour an additional 3-4 inches of concrete over my existing driveway, walkways around the house. I really wanted to just rent a machine or have a truck deliver ready made concrete into a form I would create around the perimeter of the driveway/walkways. The existing surface is poured concrete. Do I need to break up the existing concrete? Do I need to get a layer of gravel over the existing concrete surface? Is there a minimum depth I need for going over existing concrete? Any help is appreciated

Yes I am in favor of her taking a beating

Nope, I just switched yesterday based on the threads previously posted (and re-posted by Scooby since he is so special) first I checked channel 212 since I just got a new receiver (I've had the original sinve 1997 or so). Then I called direct TV in nuclear mode suggesting that as a loyal customer I was outraged that I wasn't receiving NFL Network. After being put on perma-hold while waiting for the supervisor, I was disconnected. I called in again and when I got the supervisor he gave me the spiel about retention of customers yada yada, Long story short, NFL Network is not loaded for Sunday ticket customers until the beginning of the season. I have basic programming since I only use DTV for the ticket. If you have a higher choice, you may have NFL Network within the package.

The only problem I have is that the Sunday Ticket doesnt kick in till first week of the season, so I don't get NFL Network until then
