Seinfeld reverse peephole episode Jerry: But then anyone can just look in and see you. Kramer: Our policy is, we're comfortable with our bodies. You know, if someone wants to help themselves to an eyeful, well, we say "Enjoy the show!"

If the worst thing he did was take a dumb video and let it get out, it's hardly the worst judgment or decision making to come from a 19 yr old, especially one as scrutinized and under pressure as him. He's no Tim Duncan, but so far he's not any worse than many stars that have come before him...

Straight fwd layout. Seems efficient. Nothing strange or out of place. No bedrms over the garage, but a bonus room instead. Quiet nice!

It's one of those wrought iron and crystal chandeliers. Several hundred lbs a bit of an exaggeration. Is just shy of 200 lbs but that doesn't include the chain. Standard jbox only supports about 90 lbs.

I don't put it all on D'Angelo. Think of it this way, parents obsessed with their kids will put them in productive situations, like taking them to art class or an organized youth soccer league after school where they're surrounded by discipline, organization, and other sensible kids and parents...

Yikes that home is unlivable until you get window treatments in the master bathroom!

Good to know. I admittedly didn't shop around much since I've been using the same insr agent for years. But did raise eyebrows. I think it's because OH is closer to more active fault lines, in particular the El Modena fault. http://maps.conservation.ca.gov/cgs/fam/

The transition in the bottom pic is very elegant. Like it! And the choice of both tiles works because they're both fairly neutral. Given you're looking to sell though I just wouldn't pay up on design choices in case it turns off any potential buyers. Having said that, what you're talking about...

Anyone install something wide enough for a CA room that still managed to be elegant looking? Surprised builders don't offer it and making a killing on the markup. The CA room looks great in model form but in practice, bugs and sun damage to the nice furniture you'd put there is a problem.

This story last year in the New Yorker on Seattle is a great read. It's like a geological thriller. Scared the shizzles out of me. http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2015/07/20/the-really-big-one

For those in Orchard Hills, are your EQ premiums much higher than other parts of Irvine? I was surprised at how much higher my quote was compared to prior neighborhoods I was in.

Anyone have a good recommendation on someone that specializes in heavy lighting fixtures? I'm talking about several hundred lbs so I don't trust any ordinary handyman or electrician to do it. Builder won't touch it. They referred me to an electrician who said he could do it but I was confident...

If its a powder room or a common bathroom attached to main living areas, I think matching the flooring to the common areas looks nicer. Especially for the sake of selling you probably want something that just looks decent and has wider appeal instead of overdesigning.

Love RH Modern. The good/bad about RH is their business is really suffering. Too much competition. You can find replicas of their designs easily on Ballard, One Kings Lane, Wayfair, etc. But that means constant markdowns and now this 25% off members club. We went a bit overboard with RH on our...

When was the last time a reclamation project worked out? Who a player becomes by Yr 3 or 4 is pretty much who they're going to be. Devastating injuries are the exception but too many teams think they'll be able to fix bad personalities, poor work ethic, or incomplete skill sets. When have...

Biggest raises and promotions come with either leaving or having another offer in hand. ABC! You're selling your company's products and services, but don't forget to be selling yourself. That means keeping yourself relevant and marketable.

I guess it's about reading the crowd. In general I would say long vacations can't hurt, unless you know for a fact that mgmt is particularly unfavorable towards it. My wife started a new job last yr at a shop that offered unlimited vacation. She had one staffer who told her that he didn't get...

Long vacations is probably one of the best things for an employee. At my co, if you don't take your vacation, you'll be required to use half of it by yr end. There are some depts here that can be a grind, but by the latter part of the yr if you haven't taken time off, especially the more junior...

I looked at office-using employment growth (i.e. gains in white collar employment) for ATL since 1990. It grew at an annual rate of 2.5% which is impressive. National avg is 1.7%. Consider a market like Dallas has grown at 3% and a laggard like Chicago 0.9%. So ATL was better than I expected...

It's been hard to match the quality of the first few seasons. I think straying from the source material has really hurt the overall writing because now you have storylines that go nowhere. Bravos, Dorne, even the siege of Riverrun ultimately had no purpose except to give Jamie something to do...
