2. I regret it now. I have tried to get it back, but short of shaving my head...
I was a blond for the summer. Now, as of two weeks ago, I have dark red hair

3. I deer hunt. I have killed 4 deer from 1990- 1995 and they are mounted on my Dad's living room wall. And before you ask, yes I can skin a deer and cook it too.

4. I've never had a speeding ticket. Never got caught anyway...:-\"

:burnout:

5. I Love My Boys!! Period.

** I was told at the age of 19 that I would never have kids. I had been date raped two weeks prior, and there was a lot of damage.:angry7:
please, don't feel sorry for me. The Ba$tard is in jail for the next 50 years**

But, at age 29 I found out I was going to have Gregory. Then, 5 years later, Luke arrived.
God gave my these wonderful gifts when He knew I was ready.

Same here, I have looked at many hospital hall ways that was never ending :angry7:
I kept my helper busy mixing thin set and grout, I never had a good helper that could spread and sponge it down or wipe it down :angry7:
Mud bed's for shower floors and quarry tile was the worst :angry7: Broken tile floors take forever and mixing acid, water and sawdust :angry7:
Glad that part of my life is over.
 
I didn't know you were and old tile setter memike.8)

That's some nice work there homecloned.:cheers: I love the look of a job on the 45 degree but I hate doing it. ;)
 
1. I want desperately to work for myself. I hate the corporate BS.

2. I used to think the worst thing that could happen to me would be to lose my family. Then I lost my wife to divorce and son to a bike wreck. I was right. It is the worst thing that can happen to you.
I wish I had spent more time with my kids when they were little. I truly would trade all my tomorrows for one single yesterday.

3. I grew up dirt poor but I wouldnt trade the experience for anything. It taught me to appreciate what I have and to work for what I dont have.

4. My first car was a Chevy. My second car was a Duster. That is why I am a Mopar man.

5. I am scared for the future of our country. I love America and do not want to see it harmed or changed in any way.


BTW, good thread. I enjoyed reading it.

Thanks 55, I kind of spoiled myself after doing one job on the 45 and just said WOW. Oh yeah 16" or bigger are a must.
That top pic was an older couples house that I did a 45 continuous run through the whole house. Fun cuts around the walls. Especially with porcelain tile. Give me travertine anyday.

It makes the cuts a lot more "fun" when doing a diagonal layout. I charge quite a bit extra to do 45's because of all the extra cutting involved. I don't much care for working with any kind of natural stones though. I'd much rather work with ceramic or porcelan myself.

Sorry to get off topic here gang.
