It’s that time of year where we hopefully think of others and be thankful for our friends and family. I myself am just happy to get all the lights lit on the tree! (Oops I spoke too soon!)
-However, the thing I’m most thankful for is the slow ebbing down of the great suck we’ve all been living through. Work this year is has been a little better than last year where I was mostly in the red. This year I mostly broke even and next year is looking better still. My question is has things gotten any better for you? Even just a little bit.

Would You buy this House?
Well Neither would I!
Allowing a home to get to this state does no one any good. It wouldn’t likely be sold; it lowers the value of other homes around it, and invites unwelcome residents into the neighborhood (On both 4 feet and 2!) My question to you is: Who should be held responsible for homes left to decay and how should they be maintained?

I’ve rejoined the Better Business Bureau and still have my A+ rating. My question to you is does a company belonging to the BBB with a A+ rating mean anything to you? Please let me know!

This is it!
Linked to this posting is Newsday’s report on the new lead rule.
The fact of the mater is the people who don’t care, and the fly-by-nighters stand to do well, until they’re caught.
It well cost me and my clients extra to comply. Anyone who want to skirt the issue will out bid me on jobs.
Maybe I can get a Job with the EPA, cause I don’t know if doing home improvements will work out now. I guess we’ll see

Here’s an update on the new EPA RRP Lead law. I got a Mailer from Hofstra University. They are offering the course starting March 26th; however the law takes effect on the 22, but better late than never I guess! They’re charging less than what I paid for the course and its easier to get to. Plus the area is a bit nicer (over in Bed-sty we were told for lunch not to stray too far! You needed to get buzzed in to the building, besides one fast food joint was a pizza place that didn’t sell pizza, and don’t get me started about the parking. )
Still not too many people know about what’s going on with this whole lead thing. I was talking to a cabinet sales woman in the Home Depot the other day. Her Hubby works for a big improvement outfit running a crew. Work is slow and he’s doing the handyman thing to put cash in the pocket and they haven’t heard anything about this. Why isn’t anybody banging the gong about this?

I’ve been bad! Not posting for almost a YEAR!
I’m so far behind, I’m just now committing to a New Year’s Resolution!
Here goes it: Be a better bloger, and get more work.
But enough of this.
Does anyone out there know anything about the new EPA Lead Laws?
Does anyone Care?
If Not and Don’t, then Think again!
We’re talking Big $ finds and time in the slammer!!
I’m certified as of Monday, and it looks like we’re in for a real pain in the butt with this.
As I see it, this is just the tip of a big iceberg.
And No It’s Not Just You Have to Hand Out Pamphlets!
Send me comments on what you think. I have a link to the EPA web site for your viewing pleasure.

Entry for March 09, 2009
New Fax/Office Phone Number (631)320-9409
I ran down to Radio Shack and Picked up one of them Magic Jack module. It took a little work with some internet tec. to set up, but I seem to be up and running. The sound is good, I can fax out well, But my fax machine isn’t working well. I had problems before, I think it maybe a problem with low black ink. I’ve been using this “Low Ink” cartridge for months now and it’s still printing (go figure). So far, the biggest draw back is; I must enter the area code to make a out going call, But hay, for 20 bucks a year I think I can learn to live with it!
