[font=century gothic]That medley definitely works. I’d like to commission you and your technologies to create a masterpiece. 

On my end, I’m willing to commit to a transfer of 5 dollars U.S. in order to make this happen.[/font][/quote]

[quote=doubledenim][quote=John McClane]I knew I shouldn't have clicked on that article about billionaires' tax returns. What was I thinking? Where's the blood pressure cuff?! :lol:[/quote]

[font=century gothic]I’m guessing I read that one. Seems like it’s always writing off a lot of investment, not paying taxes on gains that haven’t been realized. What’s the solution? Tax them and have them move their economic engines to another country?

This isn’t directed at you, but there isn’t one of us who wouldn’t use the methods if we were in their position. [/font][/quote]

[quote=doubledenim][font=century gothic]I’m tinkering with the program. Let me know how you feel about watching Ernest Borgnine, but only in [i]Airwolf[/i], in a few minutes.[/font][/quote]

One of my clients, among those routinely featured in such billionaire tax returns lists, complained today that he’s also going to the moon like Elon Musk, and was recently crowned the richest person in the superpower country that he’s from by Forbes, but no one cares. He calls me and says, ‘Why don’t we get more coverage? Why don’t we get coverage like Musk? I’m sending shit to Mars too! What am I doing wrong?’

It took all the self control I have not to say, ‘Mate, get Twitter, run it yourself only when you’re high. That’ll be 700 grand for my time.’

I just commiserated, though.[/quote]

[quote=ynwtf]Also, when is this danged 7-year shoutwar gonna start? I'm REALLY disappointed with all of you.... I had my money on you, Iro. Don't let me down.[/quote]

[quote=ynwtf][quote=Austruck][quote=ynwtf]Well. I finally got an independent contractor to pull up a floor our contracted floorers walked out on yesterday. Yay? Guy was so cool and came by this afternoon. A talker and I needed to do other things but worth the drawn out dialogue. I'm in a better mood and I've had a few beers to celebrate now. Is it sad that I'm celebrating someone just doing what they agree to? And getting a buzz for it? I'm concerned for my 10-year future self. Assuming I get that far![/quote]
We're having that issue with the guy we hired to mow our lawn this season. First time we've ever hired it out... and trying to get him to mow before it gets to be jungle height has been as much work as doing it ourselves. (sigh) 

Maybe time to find someone else, but often once the season starts a lot of folks won't take on new yards. :([/quote]

I'd start calling. Someone wants to make more money. If that guy is so delayed or overwhelmed with other yards, likely it will be the same throughout the season. There's always someone who knows someone trying to get into the lawn care gig down here. May even be cheaper![/quote]
