| |
| According to recent surveys, over 85% of all homes with basements will experience some form of wet basement problems in their lifetime.

At first, the size of the debris was a question to be dealt with. Then there were wet and dry items that needed to be dealt with simultaneously. Extremely hot or corrosive elements were added to the mix and then radioactive debris had to be taken into account. Al (read full article) |

People imagine their family and friends gathered around a fireplace, smiling and laughing.
Despite this, most people just do not have the time or the patience to maintain a wood-burning fireplace. That involves chopping or buying wood, storing wood, and starting the fire. Long after the fire is just a distant memory, you still have the ash and soot to clean (read full article) |

| "Isn't that beautiful corn in those people's front yard?" I asked.
"I will not have corn growing in my front yard," said my husband.
"Corn is a handsome plant. It gives a lush, tropical air."
"I will not have corn growing in my front yard."
So we didn't have corn the next year. Our back yard was shaded, except for one part, and I had decided to grow roses there instead of corn.
