I do low rise buildings (mostly wood), foundations, and quite a bit of mixed metal jobs. Granted I got my SE before the current NCEES SE exam was out, I'm quite glad that I got it. (Yeah, I had to take four (4) 8 hour tests.) If anyone is on the fence about trying for getting their SE or not...

I seem to remember that we had a digital seal topic a few years ago. I will say that it isn't an issue at my company. The digital signature company that we use locks down a PDF pretty good. Other people can stamp the document without invalidating the original signature. It sure beats signing a...

No, just the blackouts for MLB. I have a MLB.tv subscription for this season (it was free) and every Twins game is a blackout for me. It looks like I'm going to have to get a VPN. Either that or I'm going to be a Yankees fan.

All I can say is that blackouts suck. That's all.

I watched Dune on HBO Max last weekend. Overall, it was not bad. The visual effects were really good. I didn't really understand what was going on for the first hour of the movie though. Then again, I never read the book and I vaguely remember the older Dune movie with Sting in it.

It's an extra cup of coffee kind of day today.......

You need some support on that PVC. My old sump pump was just a 1/3 hp and it would move a bit when it was working. My current setup is a 1/2 hp for the AC main sump. Before, it would really move when it pumped. So much I would need to tighten the check valve every now and then. Is that concrete...

I've got one of those Barracuda sump pump setups. It's pretty slick but you'll need a deep cycle battery for it. I bought a 100 amp hour ones and that sucker is heavy. You'll only need one check valve for water going out. They already have a check valve in the backup DC sump pump. Just make...

Didn't even watch it at all.

Well, that groundhog saw his shadow today. Thank god he's only right 40% of the time.

Well, hell has frozen over. The Bengals are in it! All I can say is F the Rams!

-20 degrees this morning in the Twin Cities. 🥶

I had it a few times when it first came out. It was more of a novelty I suppose. Since I hardly ever drink soda anymore, I wouldn't really care of they bought it back.

I thought Enchanto was good as well. I watched the new Venom movie and it was terrible. I also watched the new Matrix movie. It's just so so.

Watching National Lampoon's Xmas Vacation with the family.
