 | Spin off toilet numb legs thread...... - ruzil on 4/29/13 at 2:10 pm This thread got my creative juices flowing. Those first few steps after a long number two session have me looking like Lebron being helped off the court with his epic cramps.
How about a toilet/recliner combo. The leg rests and angle of the chair will take the pressure off the legs and [b]elimina...

 | Tree removal services in Baton Rouge - ruzil on 4/14/13 at 12:49 pm Just purchased a house in the Goodwood neighborhood. Apparently, the former owner was a serious tree hugger and let the yard get pretty overgrown over the years.
I plan on leasing out the propery, for 6 months to a year while I sell my current house and design the new house. In the mean time I ...

The curb divider in front of the new Alexander's Market is going to get someone killed. They re...

 | Thinking about building a lighted bocce ball court in my backyard - ruzil on 1/31/13 at 7:55 am Do I have to pull any permits to do this? Since there is only vacant land next to my property, if I build it without the hassle and expense of the permits, could there be any problems in the future?
My family really enjoys playing bocce ball, and with the mild BR weather, I could see us playing ...

 | Chicken spaghetti - ruzil on 1/22/13 at 10:00 pm In the late '80s when I used to be a drug rep I had the teaching centers in Jackson MS as part of my territory. I used to bring lunches frequently to the residents and would have it catered.
Frequently, the residents would request a specific caterer called My Favorite Speghetti. They had this ch...

Anyone here ever had a house moved and knows of any local compani...

 | Massive gov agency ammo buy thoughts..... - ruzil on 1/11/13 at 8:23 pm What if all of this extreme buying of ammo by the gov is just a way to track them to the end user.
They buy ammo, affix RFD's on the packages, get them back into the market, and then they can locate the purchasers ammo chache.
Sounds familiar, doesn't it. Hmmmmmmm.......... :blackheli: ...
