Time To Run An Ad

ring! ring! ring!

Hello?

Hi Drew, this is Mrs. G. Nancy gave me your number. Can you do my windows?

Ok, I’ll be right over.

What, you can do them right now? Today?

Sure, if you’re going to be around, why not?

Great! I’ll see you in 10 minutes!



I love doing the windows on the condos here. It’s not at all hard, none of them are more than 2 minutes away, and the pay is actually almost double what I get per hour to do a big house. $90, including a nice tip. 5 sliders, a storm door, and a french paned door. No screens, no ladder work. And I was done in just over 2 1/2 hours, which includes doing 2 of them twice cuz they were super grubby. I wasn’t doing anything today anyway. And the customer is overjoyed with my work. Excellent.

I think it’s high time I ran ads in the condo association paper. And in the condo park on the other side of town. And the condo park the next town over. It’s easy money, and it’s fast money. No, it isn’t big money, but there are lots of condos around here ... probably 800 units altogether. And everybody knows somebody, or has a relative with a house in the area ... 10-15 of these a week would be nice.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
