    5 60# buckets of mud and 300 yds of tape oughta do it.
    And yeah, I thought the same thing John. Looks like whomever did the job used the scraps from the rest of the house.

    Believe it or not while living in Nevada there was a house that used baled hay for the wall insulation. Sounds crazy but really a thick wall of hay does keep the heat in during winter and keeps out the 115 summer temps. There was no restrictions in the valley and I saw many strange things. One upstairs house was so out of square you could actually see it from the street. There was an iron worker who built an all steel three story building for a home, as far as I know it was never completed. The most beautiful thing in the valley was a large windmill collection all working and restored, many foreign mills and some large ones that were just plain beautiful.

    And you gotta wonder what things look like underneath of it. What the heck kind of framing is that???

    Other than the fire hazard (and the bugs), I bet hay makes a pretty good insulator.

    At first glance I thought it was perhaps an attic because of the 3 or 4/12 pitch on the right but looking through the door I see a flat ceiling and walls where the drywall looks pretty good.

    It’s gotta be a joke on someone’s wife or contractor or perhaps a happy birthday surprise for the inspector.

    I was in this bar and a guy comes up to me and says "Hi, Dwight".
    "How did you know my name?", I asked.
    "I'm psychic", he says. "Plus, the bartender told me".
    "I'll prove I'm psychic." he says. "Think of a number between 1 and 10,000."
    "42", I say.
    "Your number is 42."
    "Wow, you're amazing!" I exclaimed.
    "Let me ask you this" I said. "My IQ has dropped a lot lately. Can you tell me what it is now?"
    "42", he says.
    I left the bar feeling kind of depressed.

    Writing About the Ocean….

    The things kids say …

    1)- This is a picture of an octopus. It has eight testicles. (Kelly, age 6)

    2) - Oysters' balls are called pearls. (Jerry, age 6)

    3) - If you are surrounded by ocean, you are an island. If you don't
    have ocean all round you, you are incontinent. (Mike, age 7)


    4) - Sharks are ugly and mean, and have big teeth, just like Emily
    Richardson. She's not my friend any more. (Kylie, age 6)


    5) - A dolphin breaths through an arsehole on the top of its head.
    (Billy, age 8)

    6) - My uncle goes out in his boat with 2 other men and a woman and
    pots and comes back with crabs. (Millie, age 6)

    7) - When ships had sails, they used to use the trade winds to cross the
    ocean. Sometimes when the wind didn't blow the sailors would whistle
    to make the wind come. My brother said they would have been better
    off eating beans. (William, age 7)


    8) - Mermaids live in the ocean. I like mermaids. They are beautiful and
    I like their shiny tails, but how on earth do mermaids get pregnant?
    like, really? (Helen, age 6)


    9) - I'm not going to write about the ocean. My baby brother is always crying, my Dad keeps yelling at my Mum, and my big sister has just got pregnant, so I can't think what to write. (Amy, age 6)

    10) - Some fish are dangerous. Jellyfish can sting. Electric eels can
    give you a shock They have to live in caves under the sea where I think
    they have to plug themselves in to chargers. (Christopher, age 7)


    11) - When you go swimming in the ocean, it is very cold, and it makes my
    willy small. (Kevin, age 6)


    12) - Divers have to be safe when they go under the water. Divers can't
    go down alone, so they have to go down on each other. (Becky, age 8)


    13) - On vacation my Mum went water skiing. She fell off when she was going very fast. She says she won't do it again because water fired right up her big fat ass. (Julie, age 7)

    14) - The ocean is made up of water and fish. Why the fish don't drown
    I don't know. (Bobby, age 6)


    15) - My dad was a sailor on the ocean. He knows all about the ocean.
    what he doesn't know is why he quit being a sailor and married my mum.
    (James, age 7)

    Why did the chicken cross the playground?

    To get to the other slide.
