Cutting a Circular Window: Part Deux

Posted 10/20/2007 at 05:42:55pm

I would recommend that attempt to use the Dremel "Circle Cutter." It is a relatively cheap attachment & does a superior job compared to that done with a cutting wheel. http://www.dremel.com/en-us/attachments-and-accessories/attachment-accessory-detail.htm?H=188575&G=69679&I=69820

Recent ADVENT of Cable? on
A La Carte Cable

Posted 09/26/2007 at 05:46:32pm

Windowrattler: "When cable companies go to an all digital platform then ala carte would be possible. It seems that this lawsuit is jumping the gun a bit." It is my feeling that cable has been around long enough to visit these issues. Perhap, it may be do to a lack of competition. Interesting, ATT&T has resently requested permission to enter the "cable market" in SW Florida - previous, the exclusive domain of Comcast Cable.

Hotel Options on
A La Carte Cable

Posted 09/24/2007 at 06:01:08pm

Although I was under the assumption that this issue had been resolved, apparently, it has not. Hotels get a special deal - basic cable + HBO. In order for the average consumer to obtain a "premium" movie chanel,e.g., HBO, one MUST upgrade from "basic" cable to "digital" service & opt for the "premium" channel(s) package(s). Discrimination you say! Yes, I agree.

Is Wiring Your Home Worth It?

Posted 09/07/2007 at 05:54:46pm

In SW Florida, we don't have to worry about crawl spaces. We have none. At 10 ---> 11 feet above sea level - maximum in SW Florida. There are no cellars or crawl spaces. At this time of the year, our attics are ~130+ degrees - function of the time of day. "Is Wiring Your Home Worth It?" I think NOT!
