Those things everyone's been posting are pretty terrible things (minus the bike) but are they really all things homeowners want to see in the basement? This is a tough question, Saint- I'll get back to you...

Out of all the entries so far, PAC's is the best, though I would have gone with BigPiney but for the fact that the snake was in the garage.
Yeah, it should have been "doesn't want" but I didn't notice my mistake until after I hit the submit button.Originally posted by Commando View PostThose things everyone's been posting are pretty terrible things (minus the bike) but are they really all things homeowners want to see in the basement?

Great minds.... It's funny that from the thousands of Sandusky pics available online, we chose the same one. I did so because it looked like it was taken in a basement, and as if he's wearing some kind of creepy smock or lab coat.Originally posted by SoCalCoug View PostDangit!

When I was first married and living in a small one level, one bedroom apt, I got a bill from a plumber. On the bill, it said it was for taking a cast iron tub out of the upstairs.Originally posted by HuskyFreeNorthwest View PostIt would be pretty bad to find out 7 years in that I have a basement.
I told them that I would GLADLY pay the bill if they would come and show me where my upstairs was. Could've used some more room...

“There is a great deal of difference in believing something still, and believing it again.”

"God made the angels to show His splendour - as He made animals for innocence and plants for their simplicity. But men and women He made to serve Him wittily, in the tangle of their minds."

Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!
For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

As I was putting my son to bed, I went to grab something off the floor and noticed the carpet was damp. Just in the corner of his (basement) room behind his bookshelf and extending along the wall a little bit. I also notice the baseboards have watermarks on them. It doesn't smell mildewy, but it's definitely damp. Because it's behind the bookshelf, I have no idea how long it's been there. We've had some really heavy afternoon rainshowers these last few weeks with flash flood warnings in the area, so maybe it's just from that, but the corner of the house where his room is is the one I've always been paranoid about having water issues--there's an outdoor faucet that leaks, the hot tub is there and sometimes gets standing water on the cover that spills when it's opened and it's the lowest point of our back yard. The landscaper put several drains in that area per my request, and acted like it was excessive.
Anyway...What do I do now? Is a little dampness not a big deal? Do I pull up the carpet?At least the Big Ten went after a big-time addition in Nebraska; the Pac-10 wanted a game so badly, it added Utah
