  1. I didn't think he got him in the back
  2. most hospitals (if large enough) don't really sell their bills to collections companies. they have their own in house collection agencies with names that don't sound like the hospital, rather like a collection agency. If this is one of those situations, you will likely have better than average luck working through the issue with the hospital.
  3. I don't recall the exact size, but it was barely big enough to accommodate a syringe looking tip like that hornforlife's post above. I did it in the darker places on the floor (light grey) and most were near joints. Several were in the middle of a plank when that is where it sounded the most hollow. after time, the holes seemed to blend some.
  4. i've drilled holes and injected glue to further secure wood to the concrete subfloor. it worked. I had an installer I ran into tell me that this is what he would try as a first resort. He's the only reason I tried it. Again, it worked.
  5. i've experienced something similar, but with a different provider. I called and spoke with a rep and told them that I was not advised of a service charge and that it was needed for me to receive services I paid for and necessary due to their equipment failing. They hemmed and hawed....we tell everyone about the service fee.......... I then asked for a recording of that call. They said they would have a supervisor listen and call me back. Two days later I got a call to say the fee was being removed from my bill.
  6. @rage-a-holic I am interested in your internets. Any insight on something that will project games for backyard viewing?
  7. catpfish is right. there are issues with the size of your appliances and whether they need venting. you may end up with an AC system that is oversized given the change in needs - meaning it may nto run long enough and cause issues with humidity in the home. Be sure and consult with a HVAC company in conjunction with the insulation. I will say that the difference in my new construction home was substantial when compared to the 5 year old home with blown in insulation.
  8. In the San Antonio area, thats about the going rate. Maybe a little high. A good small local builder can beat that price and probably provide you a better overall product. There is a lot of truth to the statements above. adding easy square footage allows you to get better return on your initial investment (think bonus room over the garage). While that sq ft is not free, it is cheaper sq ft than the lower level and helps you on resale (assuming that is a true concern of yours). the overall cost of the home is, obviously, greater. I can't tell if your concern is with the overall cost of the home or the comparables
  9. I would get another quote or two. That seems really high. ITs been about 10 years, but I previously built my own deck and pergola. About 600 sq ft for each. It was less than half those quotes. Understanding inflation and cost of labor.......still seems high. If the third quote is in the same range, then I guess I am totally oblivious of modern day pricing (wouldn't shock me).
  10. Given the recent Supreme Court decision, does it matter? Hornian may be the poster child for taking the Austin ordinance up the chain. https://www.texastribune.org/2018/05/25/airbnb-homeaway-texas-supreme-court-ken-paxton-austin-ordinance/
  11. I keep reading that. But the garbled sound is on the att phone. Am I misunderstanding the issue with the advanced calling features?
  12. It's a mixed bag for who is hosting. The last two, I was the host.
  13. Understood and I'd expect nothing less from you.
  14. Any of you smart sons of bitches ever have trouble with poor call quality on three way calls? My boss and I often talk while he is on the road and when the call is two party there are no issues with call quality. He has AT&T and I have verizon. As soon as we add a third party to the line, his line goes to pot. There are often periods of clipping or other poor quality where it makes the call almost incomprehensible. When HE is talking only. not just for me, but for the other participant. I have no issues hearing the other participant and they have no issues hearing me. He recently upgraded from Iphone 6 to 8plus. The issue stopped for about a week. It is now back. Does anyone have any ideas? why would it only happen on three way calls? The other attorney in our office has verizon and she hears it too (proving that I am not totally nuts).
  15. does anyone happen to keep "score" for the horns on gamechanger? I saw a team that appears to be the horns on the app, but they haven't been scored in a while (last game noted to be April 29).
