In fact your stories here do remind me of a from room I tried to build on a country home once. At that time I was driving a Toyota Tercel and I carried all the lumber in that Tercel. I can still see the car coming down the highway with boards hanging out all the side windows, and I am still laughing. You would have built that front sunroom so much better than I did -- but what fun I had and each day I would sit in my little room and write. I even wrote a newspaper column to describe the nightmare trips with boards hanging out all over:-) Thanks for the smile, Chris! Great site too by the way! Great post and thanks Chris!

It is startling when necessity presents itself what the mind will come up with. How do I transport x with y. Pure comedy is correct. Thanks so much. Thanks for the props Brad.

Oh the stories this industry brings up! I remember once stacking two 24 x 12 sheets of particle board on the roof of my van. Tied on with rope and four of us guys holding it all down while getting it to a work site. Man, it was like a scene out of a comedy. :) Awesome truck mate!
