I can use a framing square to figure roof pitch and lay out a 16 center frame wall. Greatest tool ever! Brian Williams obviously never used a framing square. Comes in handy to cut staircase supports when you need to figure rise and run cuts. Carpenters are fantastic with math.

ROFL!!!!!
Well that was their cut! :)
nobody’s held back from making a lot of $$ in this country.
Like that line from Citizen Kane “”Well, it’s no trick to make a lot of money. if all you want to do is make a lot of money”

> Michael Bloomberg could have used the $500 million ad budget on his failed presidential bid to give every American $1 million. <
As usual, everybody is wrong here except me.
Bloomberg spent $500 million. The population of the U.S. is 327 million. Now, give means the same thing as add. So Bloomberg could have given every American 827 million dollars.

Sorry I said 87 5/8. Should be 82 5/8. You can lay out stair risers with a framing square. Old carpenters are pretty sharp. Cabinet making is an art form. Its the little marks on the ruler that screw you up but buildings stay we just pass along. You pay for the carpenters tools, you just rent his brain. Trumps a builder the rest are occupiers. I M H O.
To: right way right
For $500 billion.
1 billion = 1000 million, so each person could get around $(5/3.5) thousand say around $1500.

Trumps a builder the rest are occupiers. Absolutely true, another reason why I respect Donald Trump. Carpentry is a hobby of mine, I built the cabinets in my kitchen when I remodeled it. Also did furniture for my daughters. But wouldn't consider building a home (a couple relatives are carpenters that do that), let alone imagine building a tower like Donald Trump has done. Brian Williams and leftists mock President Trump, but are clueless about actually building anything with their hands unless it's making a pile of sh*t.

You would need 327 quadrillion dollars to give everyone in America a million dollars. That’s a lot of dough. I don’t think there’s enough paper and ink to print that up.

Sister Margarita and Sister Anina. I swear some of them were sadists. But some of them were very good teachers.
