What, you don’t think I could find a pavement engineer to give me the go-ahead?
Oh it’s real. The sad part is, after I read it, laughed for ten minutes, and sent to me team and several friends, I left it pretty much as is 'cause it’s grammatically correct and the audience would understand it. [sigh]
If I have that song stuck in my head the rest of the day, you are going to get such a knurling, young lady…
One of Jeopardy’s finest moments!!!
We just got some cheap, knock-off Breathe Right strips at Target. Having never used anything like them before, my husband read the instructions. Our favorite line:
“Ensure that the strip is tangent to the nasal flare.”
My daughter once informed me that she wouldn’t be eating vegetables any more because she wasn’t a vegetarian.
Of course I asked her what she was instead and she proudly proclaimed herself a meatitarian.
You just can’t argue with logic like that.
Oddly enough I understand this.
Bull floating should be done before bleeding occurs because otherwise the surface of the concrete will be rocky like a sidewalk, not smooth like a garage floor.
A darby should be run across the edges to apply a nice round surface so the edges do not chip.
If a fresno is used before bleeding is complete the groove will be rough and jagged.
And, if the load is expected to be quite heavy then the concrete should not be jitterbugged as this will make it very brittle and subject to cracking (but smooth as glass), only the pavement engineer would know for sure.

And that’s why I left it as it was, even if it gave me the giggles.
:eek: (you mean I was right? or close even?) :eek:
Damned if I know, but I figured the audience would know, so I left it. You shouldn’t have said anything. We’d have all thought you knew what you were talkng about.
