    Softplan vs. Chief Architect

    I am currently in the process of buying either Softplan or Chief Architect. I need some input on which one to choose. I will be designing blueprints for single family housing and maybe some light commercial. If anyone has any experience with either please send me some feedback. Thanks!

    Real Estate question

    Well I put an offer in and it was $136,000 plus closing costs. We will see what happens in the next 24 hrs. My realtor told me that this is the first offer in on the house since its been on the market. Its been on the market since last April so I'm hoping that she owes less than that and just...

    Real Estate question

    Well looked at the two places and were really interested in one of them. The house right next door sold last year for about $74/sq ft. This place is for sale for $159,900. If I went by the sq ft price it would be about $115000. I know that it is worth more than that because the entire first...

    Real Estate question

    We are looking for a new home in our town. There are two we are going to look at today and on their web site they both say MAKE ME AN OFFER. The one house has been on the market for almost a year and the other one two years. The realtor I'm working with (who is also a good friend) has told me...

    Composite vs. vinyl decking

    I would go with a vinyl deck. I have a feeling in the next couple of years composite decks are going to be a thing of the past. Look at most composite companies (Timbertech, Trex, etc) atleast half of their products are now a full PVC product or a composite core with a PVC cover on it. I work...

    Drinking beer in the shower?

    Love shower beers. It's been a while since I've done it though. The last time was at about 9 A.M. getting ready for state bowling. Lets just say this the day entailed bowling and then stuffing 12 guys in a van to party in the parking lot afterwards. Getting kicked out of a BWW at 3 in the...

    Another Cyclone added to the world

    This is very true. We had our first baby 7/3 and the advice was just flowing from everyone and there wasn't hardly any that worked like the advice givers said. Every situation is different and just go with the flow. Babies are quite the life changer. Idk if this is lack of sleep making me...

    Crab cakes in Eastern Iowa?

    I've never lived on the east coast or have ever been there so I don't even really know what good seafood is, so I won't be too hard to please. I think I might check out Smugglers Wharf. My wife has said that place is pretty good and I've never been there so it sounds like the perfect place to go.

    Crab cakes in Eastern Iowa?

    I've got tomorrow off for my birthday and I am looking for somewhere that has good crab cakes. I've had a craving for them and I just don't know where to go. I'm looking at either Cedar Rapids or Dubuque. I'm willing to go a little further if someone has a good suggestion. Thanks.

    Roof Workers Question

    You serious, Clark? If its any metro area it is very common. Who knows if they are legal (most likely not). But, as long as the roof is done and the workmanship is good who cares. Find a book to read and forget about it.

    Sitting here waiting

    In the hospital my wife is being induced today and were just waiting for everything to get rolling. I am excited to see our newest addition to our family. But, the waiting is killing me. I have a feeling today is going to be a long day. They haven't started with the potosin yet so just...

    Parenting magazine for dads...

    Parenting is the magazine I was looking at. I also checked the front with all of the contributors and all of them except 4-5 were all female. I guess with it being so girly I found it very hard to get interested in what was being said. I just think that if something like this was available it...

    Parenting magazine for dads...

    Does anyone know of one? My wife is going to be having our first baby in a couple of weeks and we were at a doctors appointment today and the magazines they had there sucked. Just the fonts and all of the ads were very female friendly. I tried to look through it to find something to read and it...

    Century Link

    I've got Century Link and its been great. The wireless router you have to use doesn't seem to have the range of some of the top of the line ones you can get but the reason I have problems with it is because the router is in one corner of the house and my ps3 is in the basement on the opposite...

    ***Official Friday Confessions Thread***

    My boss took the day off and the two ladies I work with are making it known that they don't want to be here today or tomorrow. For me I don't really care and I'm making it worse by disappearing for 15 mins at a time and pretty much just messing around. I will be doing this all day today and...
