Bathroom floor top!

I like it a lot. I'm more of a dark wood person but it works.

Overall view

I REALLY like that!  That would be perfect!  Is it porcelain, or vinyl?  Where'd you get it from?

[audio-neon 34]

I wish I paid more attention to hgtv. I know they have used that tile a few different times and it comes in a bunch of colors.

[Tirefryr 1,742]

They make anything and everything anymore.  Stone in vinyl, marble in porcelain.  You name it, you can buy it and usually cheaper than the real thing.

[Tirefryr 1,742]

Such as granite.  I am going to tile my counter in granite tile, and once grouted, you can't tell it's not a slab, and granite tile is dirt cheap.

It's from pro source and it is porcelain. Those are 6x24 tiles. I have some leftover. I can send you a sample of you'd like

it looks similar to the tile we used at my old shop when the owner renovated.

I appreciate it, but I will find some.  I actually found a white ash porcelain tile I like, and I am a white freak in the bathroom and kitchen.    Your bathroom looks great!

Thanks Ryan, good luck in your remodeling endeavors

We use that tile here at work.

I paid the extra for slab. I liked the pattern and it was only 20% more or so.

That counter top was very inexpensive from US marble. We were very surprised.

You are making me want to vape.

 

I didn't take you for a smoker. Not that you have to be a smoker to enjoy vaping, but it seems like most vapers are former smokers. They do also offer 0 nicotine liquids. If you do smoke, I highly suggest you at least give it a good try... not just for your health, but for your family.

 

Also on the Vaping topic, I am tempted to look more into them now. Still apprehensive as the BLU sucked, and there is a lot of rumors about people having batteries go BOOM in their face.

Fuck Blu, dude. I was feeling like I was bound to cigs with my Blu experience. I am so glad I got with friends and started learning and trying real ecigs and AVPs. I struggled with the Blus, but really tried my best to stay off cigs. I could not be happier that I did. My service manager's wife is a heavy smoker, and she tried Blus with no success. She decided to try the G6 based on my recommendation and she dropped from 1.5 packs a day down to 2 or 3 cigs within 4 days (she just received her G6 last Tuesday).

 

I am smoke free for 2 weeks and 2 days, and feel better. FWIW I have had some serious trials, consisting of a night of taste testing a buddy's stout and porter home brews, another night of some kick ass chocolate stouts, and of course, quite a bit of whiskey drinking, and I have been having no issues thus far.

 

I also am glad I went with Halo gear. Their ecig (the G6) is, from what I have tried, the best of the bunch. I smoked lights and found their Turkish Tobacco to be a solid liquid for me. I also tried their Torque and Freedom and they tasted like pipes and cigars to me. I can't recall which was which, though, so I would hate to try to guess and mislead. I was so impressed with the G6 that I decided to try an AVP and had to stick with Halo. The Triton is such a good system that I am now looking at a modest mod system (which, sadly, Halo does not really offer outside of the variable voltage Triton battery which I really dig). I have also tried dripping, which is OK but not really something I think I will do regularly as I prefer the simplicity and flavor of the tank systems right now. So I am really getting into it.

 

I am surprised though that I like many juices that are not true tobacco flavors. In fact, I have a bunch of the Turkish and I am not sure if it will get used. I just knew that I would not be a "flavor" kind of guy, but I definitely am. I can't get enough of Halo's Voodoo. I wish you lived closer, I would love to be able to let you try various methods if it meant getting you off the cigs.

Why did you sell the goat?

i wanted something a bit more fierce. The goat was a ton of fun, but this next car is an absolute sleeper thats mean as hell. Just hoping i can get everything ironed out and finalize this deal.

  

To buy an Escalade.  LOL!

oh hell no. I'm know what your thinking. I wouldn't touch that scared piece of shit! Lol

It was all of Sean's talk.

I saw the x6M and wow was it sexy. I have always liked the x5M after the first in person view and the same is with that thing.....

Perfect winder car? Maybe.

Until it breaks. Good luck finding one that isn't shit for less than $60k as well. I want one.

[///M5 2,833]

Looks like a kitchen, but it looks like there are toothbrushes on the counter and a vanity mirror.

Also, is that carpet? Inappropriate for either room IMHO.

We have carpet in my wives "getting ready" space in the bathroom. Instead of having 2 sinks by the shower, hers is on the other side of the closet and is carpeted. In that case I think carpet is better than not.

Speaking of. . . my house is TINY and I'm going to re-carpet the living room, and I want to tile the kitchen, hall and bath in the same tile, but dammit, I can not find anything I would like to flow through from room to room.

Hardwood everywhere and then get a rug.

Curious why you didn't think I was a smoker. Smoked cigarettes from when I was 14 until about 6-8 years ago. I LOVE the act of smoking, just not what it does to my body so I stopped.

[///M5 2,833]

When I joked that quitting is easy I've done it 100 times I was serious. I was great at quiting quiting.

[audio-neon 34]

Sean I started a post about speaker choices in the subwoofer/ speaker forum. Should be right up your alley and I would really appreciate your opinion.

Why do all the turbo kits say "for off road use only".

Okay, I know why they do, but obviously it isn't that big of a deal considering how many are run. Easy here since they don't even emissions test, but I don't understand how a procharger can be CARB and a turbo not.

I realize the tuning will make it pass or not and that is included usually with a Charger setup but is this the only reason?

kb racing & trick make kits for the Esky and in general I think the lag of a centrifugal or turbo will probably benefit my trans if I do it. Obviously the turbo shaves some wear off the motor since it isn't leaching power and actually looks like a cheaper option in particular if I do something different on the motor requiring a complete custom tune anyways.
