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

Not really as enlightening though..... Who knew that stuff even existed??

I'm all for the Canadian golf experience, but with the the passport requirements it may get to be a little troublesome for some of the participants, and as for tailgate shopping, from what I have heard, you aren't allowed to bring the strippers back to the states with you.

I hope you didn't mean that in the Najeh Davenport kinda way

If I am in town in time, I would love to play. I just haven't firmed up any plans yet. Do you have a location and tentative time?

Duffs, Sheridan and Millersport Hwy

2 - xl mens for me please

I will be there

Travis was there too, except is was just a picture on the wall, in the "Top 10 List"

I also have a few for sale (2 for the game 2 for the ceremony)

What about pre-induction tailgating activies?

Was Buddy asking?

Thats bullsh&t a cow can't give consent

Cut the man some slack...He is getting up there in years, Ralph has been doing that for at least the last 3 years,

Try the Seaport for some casual stuff. Irish pub Ohara's 1 block south of ground zero Papoos around 41 Broadway Suspenders just off Broadway 1 block south east of ground zero Or a quick walk or subway to Canal street for Chinatown or Little Italy, great stuff there

She is shy about this

John, I have read through this a few times, I understand you are devastated that his football playing days may be over, and this also may have been an opportunity for Brett to get a chance at higher education, and for that I am truely sorry. The one thing we haven't heard from you.... how is Brett reacting? We have spent 7 pages of discussion regarding how John should deal with the son's lost football opportunities, and compared parenting techniques and stories. We have had psycological assesments of John and Brett, but we really haven't heard about Brett and his current feelings. Is he pissed? Dissapointed? Relieved?

Ummm, yeah, he looks pretty geeky to me, but I will bet being a pro tennis player, even with a face like that, he can get macking with some hot looking babes in a Miami nightclub.

Yeah, that biotch can't do any work on her own, always using us to google stuff for her. She hit the well once too often and she was hammerred for it. She just regurgitates whatever she reads and posts it before the games, she's a hack......Oh wait

The professor had a secret crush on the Skipper, and allowing the group to be rescued would thwart his plan to sneak his "little buddy" into the skippers poopdeck. Carole Brady had a well known gay husband, she was secretly dating/molesting her stepson Greg and needed to be available for him and wanted to be ready in case Sam the butcher made an unannounced "delivery" Grannnie needed to get her funk on, and "California is the place to be", Jethro was also in a conundrum about his sexuality and the Tenneseeans would never understand. Mrs. Garret was running a brothel, pay was fair, bouncers were bigger "schlemiel, schlimazel, hasenpfeffer" Loosely translated is "Spank me, Slap me, make me whine" My question, WHy didn't Jeanie just throw a spell on Capt whatsisname to make him hers?
