so i was 11 hours 59 minutes late with yesterdays dd-- i got sidetracked-  i wrote it and mailoed it to  myself aS I DO JUST IN CASE IT  SCREWS UP , I HAVE SOMEWHERE FROM WHICH I MIGHT COPY AND PASTE..  SOMETHIGN MUST HAVE HAPPENED AT THAT POINT AND I FORGOT TO PROPERLY POST AND SEND... CAN'T WIN HTEM ALL... I WAS "WORKING" -- I HAD TO SIT AND GUARD THE LAST 1/2 OF THE WALLS IN THAT BARN- AND A GOOD THING I DID...  AS OF LAST NIGHT THEY  WERE GOPING TO NAIL THE BARNS SHUT-- PARTY IS OVER UNLESS I GET HOLD OF " THE GUY IN THE WHITE TRUCK"  FOR ANYTHING SPECCIAL...  LIKE THOSE DOORS....   THIS COUDL BE A VERY LONG DD WITH  2 BASIUC CONCEPTS "IS COLLEGE A WISE ECONOMIC CHIOCE?" AND "WHAT DETERMINES THE PRICE OF LUMBER"   SHOULD BE VERY UNINTERESTING  TO 99% OF HUMANS ( AND POSSIBLEY NOT 100% CORRECT) **** COLLEGE.... I HAD THE TOOLS... ALL I NEEDED WAS A COUPLE STRONG BODIES--- I DID NOT GO TO HOME DEPOT AT 6 AM AND HIRE  WHOEVER IS STANDING THERE  WITH OR WITHOUT THEIR GREEN CARDS....AND I ASKED "AROUND" -- THE ONLY ONE I COULD FIND WHO COULD TAKE DOWNTHOSE STALLS AND LOAD THEM FOR ME WAS AT JANINE'S  CUTTING DOWNT BRUSH AND TREES-- CRITICAL PART.... HE IS FROM RHODE ISLAND    HE IS $40 PER HOUR AND HAS MORE WORK THAN HE CAN POSSIBLY HANDLE- INSTEAD OF COLLEGE,   HE DID AN INTERNSHIP WITH ELECTRICAL AND PLUMBING AND NOW HAS A BUNCH OF PHD 'S WORKING FOR  HIM FOR $25 / HOUR- HE JUST GETS THAT CREW GOING AND GOES ON TO THE NEXT...  IN MY CASE HE LEFT 2  DIGGING POST HOLES AND CAME OVER  WITH ANOTEHR AND TOOK DOWN THE 6 WALLS IN RECORD TIME.  SO FOR $240  I THINK I HAVE $1500 WORTH OF LUMBER THAT I NEED-- I NEED ONLY IF I MAKE A DECIENT  "RUN IN SHED " OF THAT TANNERS BUILDING. AND MR. RHODE ISLAND.... SITTING THERE DRINKING COFFEE ON HIS PHONE IN HIS NEW TRUCK WAS LINING UP  MORE JOBS IN THIS  AREA MAKING  OVER $200 PER HOUR THAT I KNEW OF BECAUSE OF ALL THESE COLLEGE GRADS THAT WERE HAPPY TO HAVE A JOB AT ALL. HIS COMMETITION AROUND HERE IS A LOCAL GUY WHO CHARGES $95 AN HOUR AND  IS NOT CAPABLE  OF MUCH MORE THAN CHANGING LIGHT BULBS. THIS GUY HAS SOME EQUIPMENT  BUT RENTS TEH REST FROM HOME DEPOT.  SO NOW......---  I HAVE 2 STALL DOORS TO  EXPIREMENT WITH AND MAYBE MAKE INTO THOSE LITTLE DOGGIE DOOR "RAIN PROTECTORS"  THAT ARE  ON EACH KENNEL--- I WILL TRY THOSE TODAY.... *** SO WHAT IS IT WORTH? THIS COMES FROM MY LONG AGO MEMORY-- LUMBER IS BASICALLY SOLD BY THE BOARD FOOT-  THAT IS A 1" THICK piece of wood  ONE FOOT SQUARE---JUST TO GET GOING... A 1 INCH" BOARD"   STARTS OUT-- ROUGH SAWED--  ONE INCH.. AND THEN THEY  PLANE IT  SMOOTH-- SO IT IS NOW 3/4 INCH THICK-- THIS IS WHY A  2 X 4 IS REAlly 1.5 x 3.5 inches thick. CALCULATOR READY?? FOR THIS SOUTHERN YELLOW PINE........TOUGH WOOD.... HOME DEPOT HAS A 2 X 4 BY 4 FEET LONG FOR $4.06 SO A 2 X 4 X 12 WOULD BE  $12.18 BUT..... THESE ARE  2 X 6"   OR 1/2 AGAIN AS BIG AS THE 2 X 4'S    SO ADDING $6 THESE 12 FOOTERS ARE CLOSE TO $20 EACH  EACH WALL WAS ABOUT 7 FEET TALL  OR  84 INCHES DIVIDED BY TEH 5.5 BOARD IS 15 BOARDS PER WALL-- AT $20 EACH IS $300??? NOW  6 WALLS GETS SERIOUS... $$$$$ AND WE DID BOTH SIDES THE BARN....  12 WALLS???? THEY MAY HAVE LEFT A BOARD OR TWO THAT WAS BROKEN-- OR THE BOTTOM BOARD MESSY.. I FORGOT  TO POST THE DD BUT WE HAVE AN EXPENSIVE PILE OF LUMBER.... AND WE HAVE 2 DOORS... I NEVER WOULD HAE BUILT THEM-- BUT BEING FREEEEEEE.......  I THINK THEY ARE  TEH SAME SYP  AND LINED WIT 1/2 INCH PLYWOOD... PROBABLY 4' X 4'  CAPPED WITH METAL( FOR NO CHEW)-- BIG HEAVY HINGE.... IF I CAN GET THEM INTO  A TRIANGLE- THEY WOULD BE INTERESTING  AND EFFECTIFVE RELLACEMET FOR TH E LITTLE DOOGIE HOUSES THAT KEEP THE RAIN/ SNOW FROM FALLING OFF THE ROOF  ON THE DOGS INHIBITING THEM FROM GOING OUT TO PEE IF IT IS RAINING.  THERE ARE A BUNCH-- FREE FOR THE TAKING. THAT IS TODAY'S JOB. AND REMEMBERING TO POST THIS CORRECTLY..
