Of Blogging Contests (and a humble request or two)
As scary as it sounds I remember when blogs where originally called V Logs or weblogs and the idea of them actually being anything more than just entertaining or sad was almost ludicrous. Nowadays it seems like almost every site out there has a “blog” and if it doesn’t the marketing &/or SEO folks are […]
A Contractors Oversight… the conclusion
Just as a reminder, this is the second part of a guest piece by Jay Preston on: A contractor’s oversight turns into my first big project? When we left off last week, the dreaded while we are it disease kicked in & besides rerunning the vent line, he had also decided to swap out a […]
A Contractors Oversight Turns Into My First Big Project?
The next two weeks we have a guest blogger joining us for an interesting spin on a DIY project. While we generally don’t do articles like this, he agreed to let us use his project to help draw a few lessons out as it relates to industry standards & codes. The guest blogger is Jay […]
Looking Back, Forward & a call for help?
Sometimes looking back is good for the soul & necessary, but looking forward is how one moves in that direction. With that I thought we would take a quick stroll down memory lane, take a look at where we are headed & ask you all for a little help. Today marks the start of my […]

Guest Post: 106 Yards Later part Deux
Last week I did a guest post on Building Moxie where I gave a “semi-interview,” (aka I interviewed myself) mostly as my way of saying thanks & to answer a few popular questions. Well while I was at the Remodeling Show & Deck Expo, JB & Barry did a real one with me which went […]
Guest Post: 106 Yards Later
What’s this, another logo change for Building Moxie? Well no not exactly but it sure is an interesting story. As you may recall I originally met JB at the Remodeling & Deck Expo back in 2010 which was being held in Baltimore. The next year the show was in Chicago & the Building Moxie crew […]

Founded in 2007, Blog Action Day brings together bloggers from different countries, interests and languages to blog about one important global topic on the same day. This will be […]
Faceoff – The “Energy” Plans
It really is quite amazing listening to people describe the two different “energy” plans. Leaving all the vitriolic comments aside how about we actually compare them side by side. The Romney/Ryan plan is called “For A Stronger Middle Class: ENERGY INDEPENDENCE” while the Obama/Biden plan is called “ALL of the ABOVE.” I really can’t stress […]
