Copy of letter sent to Remodeling Contractor

Awwwww, looks like mean old Mr troll has acquired rent free accommodations inside your tiny cranial cavity, snowflake. Dry your eyes, put on your big girl panties and post your nonexistent fantasy spreadsheet wherever your tender heart desires. Reclaim your man-card!

OT ... PC upgrade

Replaced it with Win2K and never had any bother after that (until I bought a new graphics card and had to upgrade to XP, which is also trouble- free). And Win 7 is considerably better than Fista. -- Halmyre

Cancel Guarduan Subscription

Give credit card details. First fortnight free. BUT after a few days I decided it was not for me so wanted to cancel before the fortnight free ended. Big problem. In reply to my request I get an email telling me I have to phone them. After 2 x 15 mins on hold I've given up.

OT: offline maps for android?

You can get most of Europe on a 2 Gig card. I don't know what the maps are like, though, as my mobile runs WM 6.5. There is also Mapfactor's Navigator Free, which runs in Windows Mobile, and uses the Open Street Map mapping. It's not the best, but it's free in both senses.

Woodwork or wood turning course

This isn't the answer you were looking for, but I would check local schools that have shop classes. They might have evening classes for adults. That is how I started.

Menards - good? bad? just another box?

I would recommend that you stay as far away from their "Tool Shop" brand of tools as possible too. YMMV
