American Home Journal: February 2012
http://americanhomejournal.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 5, 2012. Then, Now and Later. The answer is : Because we keep planning such stupidly expensive houses! The questions are :. How did American homes get so expensive? How did we get in this mess? How can we get out of it? What happened next, nationally, was an attitude shift from patiently cultivating prosperity to. From individuals to corporate mega-companies, everyone was in on it. The house and garden television industry seized the obvious opportunity to script shows and create advertis...

Thursday, February 23, 2012. The Neighborhood Arms Race. It’s Thanksgiving. Be thankful you don’t live in this neighborhood. But, if you do, then never mind. In a rural, upscale housing development two neighbors share a passion for yard care. Bill pounces like a tiger on anything that lands in his crystal clear swimming pool. Zino fanatically scouts his lawn for any blemish to the putting-green surface. The next day Bill was supervising his son’s pellet rifle target practice. A bird flew across...8221; h...

RAISING THE ROOF: Letter from the Builder Beast
http://andybozemanraisingtheroof.blogspot.com/2012/02/letter-from-builder-beast.html
Thursday, February 23, 2012. Letter from the Builder Beast. This is not a question and answer column, but I have to share the following letter:. Dear Andy Bozeman,. I really liked your last column about the sliding cat rug, especially the part about the expanding tile. That has happened to me. I am a builder and since you seem so smart I am hoping you can clear up a question for me. Why don’t my customers like me after I build their house? There’s the time I left out an expensive floor beam that th...

RAISING THE ROOF: Workmanlike Manner - Defined
http://andybozemanraisingtheroof.blogspot.com/2012/08/workmanlike-manner-defined.html
Wednesday, August 22, 2012. Workmanlike Manner - Defined. Every construction contract I’ve ever seen has contained a phrase like this : “All work shall be completed in a workmanlike manner.”. The problem with this phrase is that no one really knows how to interpret it. To the customer it means everything should be perfect or nearly perfect. To the contractor it refers only to his workmanlike efforts to control a project, no matter how it turns out. But the word workmanlike? What does it mean? It doesn...

RAISING THE ROOF: TV DINNER CHRISTMAS
http://andybozemanraisingtheroof.blogspot.com/2012/02/tv-dinner-christmas.html
Thursday, February 23, 2012. Ned (never his real name) was anxious to finish building. His family’s most recent Thanksgiving dinner had been served from little, toaster-oven heated, foil pans divided into small basins, each holding a single element of the season’s traditional feast. Turkey, dressing, gravy, and green peas were all separated by metallic barriers. He only had to order the wood flooring, kitchen appliances, shrubs and topsoil, and just install everything. That was almost nothing. Oak planks...
