Happy Birthday Jason!

I went to a surprise birthday party (lots of those going on this year) for a friend who is turning 40! And he’s having his first child, at least the first one I know about. Fun again!

I went to a home show today, and it was cheesy. I only recognized two companies at the show, and there was only one other vendor that I trusted (an artist selling metal sculpture.) The rest was gimmicky cleaners/knives/etc and some really horrible looking siding and roofing. Even the big names of local contracting, like Neil Kelly, were absent from the show. I knew there was something wrong when there was only one company selling windows. And the “Gutter Helmet” people wouldn’t quote an estimated price per linear foot, or a price of materials. Good thing my friend got the tickets for free.
