It is Italian. I had just watched a contest commercial where a new Lamborghini is one of the prizes.
I'm not fond of EV's. Ford or Chevy pickup truck would be more my style. Driving and hauling all in one.
In our area kit house HOA communities are popping up all over what were formerly family, and even Amish, farms.
My dad's house (which I still live in) was a kitset home. He bought it new off the plans. Most of our street had the same. They are like shotgun houses eg you can walk right in the front door and straight out to the back. But the difference is ours was built of brick, while most everyone else's was built of wood or weatherboard.
Actually it was 24 years old. It was first registered 2001.
Wise man indeed. My home is also brick. The only building material I would ever accept in purchasing a home.
That's sad. I'd imagine one has a twinge of fear from then on, having lost a home that way.
no cats, zoos, maybe a couple of cane corso dogs. sure, servants. no, don't care about owning a record label. my main interest would be to get a band initiated with extremely talented musicians. cobalt blue stoneware are the pottery vessels back in the 1750 to 1900 era of america. the forms were cake, butter, milk crocks, preserve jars, barrel shaped vessels for large amounts of grains, salts, flours, seeds, etc. &liquids. the jars were for liquids solely. they often would have a cobalt blue image of flowers, birds, houses, boats, animals such as deer, landscape scenery, etc. too, there was yellow, red gray clay. gray was the best. blue was the color of the spectrum that lasted the longest thru the kiln process of firing the unit to it's desired density. a restaurant would be possible. the name would be: "Glorious Gourmet"!
Leaky homes have been a disaster in NZ. Once the rot set in, just needs to be condemned. They used softwood pine not properly treated and had stupid designs like no flashings or eaves. Or monolithic cladding, which breaks off when gets wet like cardboard. In a damp rainy climate.Wise man indeed. My home is also brick. The only building material I would ever accept in purchasing a home.
My house is inherited. Third generation build from the early 20th century.
That's sad. I'd imagine one has a twinge of fear from then on, having lost a home that way.
The houses near me were built,finished, in two days! Three if the buyer asked for a basement.
Two by eights,and plyboard,not hardwood.Plyboard is wood shavings and glue formed into plywood sheets about an inch thick.
Glue! Highly flammable.
And they're wrapped in insulation paper labeled,Tyvex.
I think it is a Dupont company product.
In huge red letters printed all over that paper are the words, DO NOT EXPOSE TO HIGH HEAT OR FLAME!
Wrapping an all wooden structure. The majority of which contains glue!
And the blueprint for the HOA community streets was deemed a risk by the fire marshall.
But the developer built them anyway.
I pray none of those houses catch in my lifetime.
Christian rock but if that didn't work, a rock band. with a bit of a hard edge, clean music though, not metal, a bit progressive also.
i don't know how to post pics. the lovely Magenta sent me instructions & there was about 12 things i had to do. i really dislike this kind of soical atmosphere but cc is a fine collection of characters such as you, Magenta, carriepie, godsgirl, tall timbers & others. if someone was here & said, "karlon do this, now do that & so on, i would learn how to post pics. i don't have the equipment Magenta spoke of anyway. i often thought that if i was totally retired from the landscape biz, i would learn. you are adept at posting, all you have to do is search american stoneware pottery, 17th, 18th & 19th centuries.
That's a shame.
what a disastrous situation. hope for better days ahead. get some lawyers & strongmen on your side.That's a shame.
Money! It's all about the the money.
The HOA community near me has houses wrapped in that Tyvex paper before the plyboard/glue boards, could dry after days of rain.
As soon as it stopped raining, if it was early morning when the storm passed,the builder crew would be on site Tyvex wrapping the house. And it isn't treated wood their using either. Because in houses that priced starting in the mid $300's, that would make them costly to build.
So now,there are countless houses across 25 acres of a former family farm with rain soaked wood, wrapped with flammable insulation paper.
And families, totally unaware, paying on a 30 year mortgage.
The first developer lied to potential buyers. Oh,there's going to be a community center,you can pay extra for a fence,which was never installed because he sold the property to a different developer, and on and on.Promise after promise.
All lies.
Because it's all about the money.
And those buyers could opt to buy the house furnished! Furnished!
Because who doesn't want to pay for 30 years for a living room set?
Horrible.
