Replaced with what? Aluminum lasts as long as copper... were Kootchi
intelligent he'd have had white Aluminum gutters installed, he'd have
saved thousand$ and they'd be a better match on that house. Actually
wooden gutters would have been more esthetically pleasing on that
style/age house... and of the right wood could last 100s of years...
years ago gutters and down spouts were made of the same oak used for
sailing ships and wine barrels.

I have no idea. It just seems in keeping with his other decisions.

Most importantly: wait until your roof is finished, like Gary said.

lol. I knew that but gave it a try anyway. Knock yourself out.
 
Interesting how you are spending a fortune to do your
roof "right," yet you are fine half-assing your interior
work. oh well

I'm sure if he were physically capable of doing the work, he would have
half-assed his roof.

In all seriousness, he's sitting on a gold mine. Contact the
right
people and start a new reality show. I suspect he would get
paid very well for "The Daily Adventures of John Kuthe."
 
I would watch it. ;)

Probably Sanitas... usta be used in bathrooms and kitchens when real
plaster and lath were used.

All part of his narssism... only improves and even goes overboard on
the things that strangers passing by can see.

Physically and mentally capable. . . were he mentally capable he'd
realize that copper gutters were only used prior to the advent of
refining aluminum. Copper gutters were used by the poor riff raff...
the rich, Rich, RICH used solid gold gutters.

How about:
 
Garlicholics Anonymous
Adreno Reno
Bipole Moments
 
The theme of the show starts out with the music him and Bryan made
together when they were friends, played out at full volume on all that
audio equipment in his basement. (This section could be recorded once and
re-played each episode.)
 
Next, we have current events. If there's any news about the environment,
crow about being a vegetarian. Don't forget to emphasize the importance
of using electricity no matter how it is being generated.
 
Next, we have the cooking section, where he shows how to make his
signature garlic potatoes. (This section could be recorded once and re-
played each episode.)
 
Next, we do the job search on the Internet using obsolete computers.
 
Next, we check out anything new around the house regarding paid
construction work, home repair, and renovation. Be sure to either mention
how this helps with renewing his 'occupancy permit' or if it is expensive.
 
Next, the silly section where he shows boring things around the house for
no apparent reason, like a puddle in the driveway because it just rained,
etc.
 
Finish with the same music, but at a lower volume. Perhaps find a tune
not played during the opening. For video, use a timed montage of stills
he has posted over the years, i.e. scratched fenders, church roof
ornament, etc.

Yeah. But they need to be aluminum foil pyjamas.
 
Of course, they'll still know what you're wearing.

I forgot about the towel warmer. Too funny.
 
I just did an image search. I'm surprised that someone
invented such a thing. Even more surprised that someone
would buy one.
 
Maybe that was helpful to your wife though so I'll stop.

The city of Toronto expanded its bike lane program for the pandemic. It
is going to be reviewed at some point. It is a great idea for the
summer but Toronto's climate is not conducive to year round cycling. It
isn't a lot of fun bicycling in the snow.

PFfft. You call *that* snow?
 
Get a snow bike then. NOT the motorized ones, but the pedalized ones with
really wide tires. (8")
 
Note: If you do a web search for "Snow Bike", you will instead get
pictures of the ones with motors that look a lot like a dirt motorbike
but with a fat back wheel & ski at front. Some even replace the tire with
a tread.
 
I suspect though, that one would need to adjust the 'standard' method
used with a normal snowmobile to cross ice that is not thick enough to
support the weight of the snowmobile plus operator.

No hole in the ground here. Goat barns operate on one floor.

Swiss chard is one of the easiest vegetables to grow and harvest...
just keep picking off the large outter leaves from each plant and
they'll keep growing more. Buying chard already harvesteed is not
nearly so good as freshly harvested. Most produce departments don't
sell shard as once harvested has a very short shelf life. Chard is
botanically the same plant as beets... beets are grown for their
bulbous root, chard produces more/better leaves but no bulbous root.
Chard is very close in taste and texture to spinach but is far easier
to grow and not full of sand like spinach. Like spinach chard is very
good eaten raw in salads, just snip off the thick stems as they can be
tough and fiberous.

10 houses on my street and none on the actual circular portion. I'd
guess at 4 to 6 cars a day pass my house at the end.

My thought is that to get to inland Austin, it came there
either live or frozen. Only other choice would be a
pasteurized whole lobster in the shell. Never heard of
that but it could be true. I can buy cooked, picked,
and pasteurized crab here in season.
 
If the store cooked it for him, that's a live lobster that
he asked to be cooked.
 
Or it could have come frozen and he saw it in the seafood
showcase, now thawed and on ice to simulate fresh.
They do that with shrimp here.
 
I'm hoping for a straight answer this time and no more games.
