In my current house the builder ran the dryer vent from the front of the house to the back...... it takes two full spins to dry anything and relocating it is going to be very very difficult because of the floor joists. Stop right there. You have to run your dryer on two cycles just to do shit? FUUU...

Looks pretty :notbad: but I am a bit concerned with a CD mount because I'm kind of a brute with jamming the phone in and out of the holder..... I've had no issues in the 3-4 years that I've had mine. :iono: If you don't clamp those 2 side holders down too tightly and remove the phone with one hand ...

It's obviously an old and stupid argument, but whatever.

It will be fine. No the art won’t be restored. They will replace it with new and the cycle will restart. The Munich Glockenspiel (city hall) with essentially a giant cuckoo clock was leveled in WWII. It was rebuilt to exactly what it was before and it’s still amazing. If anything it’s even more imp...

Thoughts and prayers.

That does suck. They'll rebuild it.
Maybe? But a building this old...there's things burning that can't be rebuilt. This is really sad.
Not to mention all the lost priceless art..... there is no getting that back.....
