I have noticed that the older school buildings are mostly brick with small windows and have some parts of the building with no windows at all. Now, they are being built with floor to ceiling glass walls, glass ceilings, and use much less brick and concrete than before. Is it cheaper to do this glass construction?

My clothes dryer has a 3 pronged cord, what do I need to do to get my dryer to work with this type of outlet?

Powell:
Retired 4 star General
Former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff
Ronald Reagan’s National Security Advisor
Secretary of State
two Presidential Medals of Freedom
the President’s Citizens Medal
the Congressional Gold Medal
the Secretary of State Distinguished Service Medal
the Secretary of Energy Distinguished Service Medal
and the Ronald Reagan Freedom Award
Several schools and other institutions have been named in his honor and he holds honorary degrees from universities and colleges across the country.
Joe:
Unlicensed plumber
Owes back taxes

Is it fair to compair the two?

Also is it fair that he is being called a traitor by the GOP? After them calling many “unamerican” for criticizing in any way John McCain a POW???

An electrican is interviewing for a construction job. “Can you roll your hard hat down your arm and make it pop back on your head? the supervisor asks. “Sure”, he replies, confused. “Can you bounce your screwdriver off the concrete, spin in a sircle and catch it in your tool pouch?” “Yes, sir,” he answers exictedly. “And can you quickdraw your wire stripper twirl it and slip it into your pouch like its a holster?” “Oh I’ve been doing that for years!!”, the electrician said. “In that case, I can’t use you,” the boss says. “I’ve got 15 guys doing that now.”
