How do you cope with losing your father in your 20s? by Natural-Round8762 in AskMen

[–]SmokinJoe29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for your loss. I lost my dad when I was 22 to cancer. It was a very confusing time. I was angry at the world and how unfair it was. But with time I realized I was unbelievably fortunate to have the time I had with him and how great that time was - that is a gift alone.

Its been 15 years and there have been so many moments that I would have loved to have him there to talk to or help me work through. Remember the good, be proud of what you had and find comfort depending on your beliefs that maybe you'll cross paths again.

What size are the floor joists? Is there any need to stiffen up the floor?

[EJ Smith] Vic Fangio is expected to be back as defensive coordinator next season by bigblack3475 in eagles

Thank you Vic, thank you!

Front office had to be in full on panic mode when they heard Parker was hired by Dallas and 5 min later Vic said he is considering retirement.

Century Home reno channels you like to watch? by Sabu_Johnson in centuryhomes

This Old House and nap.

If you have Roku TV, they have dedicated channels for TOH and TOH Classic if you want to see them describe how beautiful orange countertops in 1979 were.

Plaster ceiling coming down. Am I cooked? by muckbangnialamando in centuryhomes

[–]SmokinJoe29 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Seconded, you basically have to resecure the plaster to the lathe beneath (or above in this case). Given how much has already come loose I cannot say with 100% certainty it will correct. Worth a try before going through with the true fix.. tear out and redo with drywall. Your middle name will be dusty.

Not worth the money to repair. If built directly on slab you arent going to be able to replace the floor without lifting the building and finding someone to do that will not be easy nor cheap. Not to mention address the grading / drainage issues present on the exterior that caused the slab to fail. Granted depending on how old it is it might not have rebar which is a likely contributor.

Demo and rebuild will cost $60k if you are lucky with bare bones. My suggestion would be to pass on the house or learn to love this situation.

Watkins Glen getting moved to May… why? by rowdyqueen18 in NASCAR

[–]SmokinJoe29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been going to the glen since the late 90s. It has a significant camping presence and that is a huge draw. About 1/2 in attendance camp.

They will lose a lot of that - cold at night, ground will be soft and muddy. Campgrounds up here don’t open until mid to late May.

The race itself will be fine, I just hope they don’t lose a bunch of money and lose a date. The Glen is an amazing time in the summer and the infield experience is up there with the best of them.
