Hitler... there was a painter! He could paint an entire apartment in ONE afternoon! TWO coats!

[Calvin Locke]

I once saw Tony Randall on some talk show, mentioning that in one of his NYC apartments moves, the new place was still being painted when he moved in.

Well, it happened to be the Friday of the big Jewish holy day (Atonement?), and as soon as the Sun started to go down, the painters, probably not Jewish with names like William Fitzpatrick and Patrick Fitzwilliam, took off, leaving paint rings on the hardwood floor. Randall said the rings were still on the floor when he moved out. (He covered them with a rug or runner)

So, would AH take advantage of the calendar, or finish the job?
