  1. I ordered two relatively cheap downstreamers from espec, and the first one I have tried ROCKS! I haven't tested the draw rate, but it beats any downstreamer I've tried thus far!

    Mike,

    When you say "espec" do you mean Envirospec? Looking at their website I am only seeing Chemicals and no hardware. I did order a catalog though.

    Thanks,

    Keth


  2. I agree with you 100% Jeff. Some may say I am not patriotic when I say I don't support the president but I consider myself a great patriot when I can think for myself and realize that the best thing we can do as Americans is insist that the young boys who we are sending to die every day in Iraq come home as soon as possible.

    We have now killed about 30k innocent Iraqi women and children trying to quash this uprising. Some say up to 100k due to death by disease and malnourishment due to the war. Think of how many people lost a son or daughter over there who will have a deep hatred of us for the rest of their lives. No amount of soldiers are going to fix this problem and we now stand in the middle of a vicious civil war that we created.

    I think this current administration will go down in history as the worst ever.


  3. Thanks Ken.

    Back on topic. Just out of curiosity I checked my fiberglass screens on my screened in porch as they are about 7 years old as well. In the areas that are hit by the sun the most I see the degradation the worst with whitish patches throughout. I have a few holes that look like what you show in the area where my children play and I presume that is from the random toy being thrown into the screen.

    The most interesting part I found was the same exact damage along the edges in one panel. It is a panel that contains the screen material looser than the others and it is on the side of the house that would get buffeted the most from the prevailing wind. It appears that it flapping in the breeze causes the edges to break down at the transition. This is just a theory but it may explain what you are seeing.

    Then there is the big gaping hole in the metal screen on the door that was caused when my son decided to put a golf club to a use other than hitting a ball.......

  4. Had a job last year where I put down 9 yards of mulch in one day and it was as hot as today is and it was brutal. I drank so much water and gatorade and never had to pee once. The owner was nice enough to set a big commercial fan in the driveway and I would take frequent breaks, hose down, drink gatorade while standing in front of the fan. I don't think I would have made it without that fan that day. Never understood why the owner had one but it was a godsend. Today I am just hunkered in the AC and ordering some stuff online.

    Relief is on the way for you northerners soon. We will be like this for weeks on end.


  5. Jeff,

    Once you have Quickbooks set up properly it is easy to use and will save you hours of work.

    Here is what you should try. Go to the local community college and find out who teaches the Quickbooks class. Almost all of the community colleges have the class offered. Find out the name and the number of the instructor. I have yet to meet an instructor that doesn't work on the side setting up businesses.

    Hire them for a few days to get Quickbooks all set up to run your business and teach you how to enter stuff at the end of each day or week. Once set up you will be shocked at how easy your bookeeping becomes.

    Hope this helps.
