Quote from: TheVikingFunny, I can still remember walking up St Josephs St. in South Bend to school in the 2nd grade in the snow. Then moved to Az and saw no snow at all.
Why O Why would you ever leave South Bend!!! Ive spent many a Saturday there watching the Irish crush opponents.....(we'll OK not this year :mad: )..and even though I claim to know the city I seem to get lost there at least 2 or three times a year. Well, actually I dont get lost...its my family that cant navigate....Like I tell them, I cant read the signs at this speed so you do it for me.....

I know a guy who puts up lights for people.  Just a basic job, outline the house type thing.  

He buys all the lights, uses reusable gutter clips, etc.  When the season is done he comes out and packs it all up into a tupperware tub and it's ready for next season.  He supplies the extension cords and all...

He uses a bucket truck.  I don't remember what he charges to do it, but he makes a pretty penny doing it (since with the truck he can do a house per hour).

I've had alot of people ask me to do their house or business. I do mine for fun, if i did it for money i think it would take the fun out of it for me. I dont need the money, so i'll just do mine for the fun of it....... :XMas
