    Painting contractor concerns

    Understandable. However if you do get your painter back out to caulk with a colored caulk suitable for wet locations, know it isn't a permanent solution. I am a remodeling and painting contractor, and drywall isn't something that will last in a wet location. It absorbs water and will swell...

    Painting contractor concerns

    Your painter should have caulked to the counter top after all the painting was done in a colored caulk suitable for wet locations. If I were you I would rather have a proper back splash being it is a wet location, and caulking will fail over time. Tile or the same material as your counter top...

    Mitt Romneys tax plan for America

    Its still 5% across the board. That means less taxes for everyone. So what if the rich get to keep more of their money?

    Harry Reid: "Bain source says Romney paid no taxes for 10 years"

    Or its someone who knows the extra taxes they would pay will be wasted on stupid crap. Why not waste it yourself instead? Spending ones money has been proven to stimulate the economy. I think more people should do just that. Also the IRS should basically be collecting sales tax and nothing...

    New PC Build For Photography

    Unless you really need all that storage space get a large ssd or two. You would see more performance for your dollar invested. I have had various raids over the years even fast dedicated controllers, but access time rules on SSD.

    GW Bush Calls Kanye West '05 Remark “Disgusting”, considered dropping "Vader" Cheney

    I agree, and Cheney is an evil genius. Any man that can shoot a judge in the face and have him apologize is scary.

    will the republicans put their money where their mouth is? Debt ceiling.

    So you want to cut the only thing that isn't a handout? Medicare is what is killing us and it getting more expensive every second. You know that thing that Bush increased the spending on with Medicare D, or should I say taken from the tax payer and given to pharma.

    AT&T is going to send me 2 phones I don't want, then charge me $35 each restock fee

    What sucks is you don't have a say in being moved to AT&T. I can't believe that you aren't given a choice to stay with Verizon.

    For Republicans and Tea Party folk, how to solve the US debt problem:

    Or just cut spending more and let me keep the money I make. I promise I will use it to build my business or buy stuff. No need to raise taxes, most of us that pay them are giving plenty of our income. I would start with the big 3 and kill every social program there is. This is America, get a...

    Christine O'Donnel lulz

    As I said before this "story" just proves she is more normal than I originally thought. It makes me cringe when politicians run on family values. I am a pretty strong fiscal conservative, but there is no place for the government to tell us what our social morals should be.

    Christine O'Donnel lulz

    I wouldn't want to vote for anyone who didn't have at least one story like this. What normal person hasn't done something similar in their lifetime? I concur.

    Nicotine is one hell of a drug

    I agree like Denis Leary said about smoking taking 10 years off your life. Those are the bad years, pooping your pants and not knowing who you are. Who the hell cares about those years. :sneaky:

    Call of Duty: Black Ops

    I think default cvars for servers had them set at 6 at a time, two or three waves, and it took 4 or more shots to kill them. They were a pita, and they would spawn in crazy spots. Camp, get enough kills get dogs, die, respawn, send in dogs, dogs get enough kills for more dogs, repeat.

    Wow. Guy I know got owned on his father's will.

    I guess I don't understand people. No matter how big an a hold the man was he is still your father. Barring physical or sexual abuse I would always let my father know I love him.

    Official "Marijuana is legal in CA" Countdown Thread ***UPDATE: California Sucks***

    Because if its taxed to death nothing will change. The black market will still thrive. Killing the income of drug dealers would be the only reason I would vote for something like this.

    Google 2.4% Rate Shows How $60 Billion Lost to Tax Loopholes

    Its not retarded. Its true if the company can simply add it to the cost of the goods or services they sell which most can do. That is called math. Only way to get everyone to pay their share is a consumption tax, and removing income tax.

    Google 2.4% Rate Shows How $60 Billion Lost to Tax Loopholes

    No they don't pay any taxes in most cases. You and I do when we purchase their goods or services, because its just another overhead added to their costs. Might as well be 0% here as well.
