hausdok Posted January 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 Yep, I just post it when I run into it, I don't control when other pubs take it off the wire and republish it and I'm not going to go back and dig through all of the stuff here to see if it's already been posted.

Chad Fabry Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 It's deja vu all over again First, that line just cracks me up. Second, Joe, I think Mike's tone "sounded" a little snippy. Do you think he "sounded" snippy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inspectorjoe Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 I didnââ¬â¢t realize it either, at least not until I was deep into typing out a reply about that column. I vaguely recalled (no pun intended) reading about it a while ago, so I did a search. Barry Stone is usually dead-on with his answers, but at times, he does seem to miss by a mile. One of these is from January 12, titled "Two Buyers With Hot Water Problems". The buyer bought a bank owned house that didnââ¬â¢t have the gas turned on during an inspection. The inspector didnââ¬â¢t discover that the upstairs bathrooms were supplied with hot water only. The buyer states ââ¬ÅOur plumber says there is a cross-connection of the hot and cold water lines somewhere in the building and that it will be difficult to find where the problem is.â⬠Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inspectorjoe Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 Since I type so slowly, these are out of order. What else is new? Originally posted by Chad Fabry "It's deja vu all over again"First, that line just cracks me up. Me too. That's why it's not the first time I've stolen it. Second, Joe, I think Mike's tone "sounded" a little snippy. Do you think he "sounded" snippy? Technically speaking ..... and ONLY technically speaking, Mike's written words didn't "SOUND" a little snippy. I'm ducking now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hausdok Posted January 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 Snippity huh? I'll give you snippity. Good thing I'm not back on the east coast, I'd be getting in my car for a little jaunt to Rochester and to Nazareth and would bringing a pair of scissors to do a some real snippin'. After that, there'd be a new pair of sopranos singing at the met, doncha know - Chadwina and Josephina. [:-bonc01] OT - OF!!! M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
