Default Today's Inspection

The house was a piece of s**t ($1.5 mil), but it had a million dollar view (literally - they bought it for the view).

Looking East over the San Fernando Valley from West Hills. . .

Nice pics Jeff. Although if I remember right, you only get to see those hills a few days a year when the winds are right.

Yep. 70 mph gusts over the last few days. Today was the first day of calm in over a week.

I want to take this occasion to pass on the
prestigious JEFF HOOPY SPELLING AWARD
to Mr Pope.

Any member of this board that wins this
spelling award is required to pass it on to
the next HOOPY spelling champion for
poorly spelled words and goofy bloopers.

I held this award for my last spelling
boo boo for too long. I am relieved to
now pass it on to you... Mr. Pope.

Well done...

That is a nice view. Is it a re-model?

And thus begins the journey to the end of time...a Jeff Pope inspection that does not include a photo of a Zinsco panel.

But, wait! Could it be??!! Is that a Zinsco-made tranformer on the pole???

Maybe it is not yet to worry...

I think that was their intention, but I believe it will require massive reconstruction or a complete tear-down.

No Zinsco Jae, but it had this. . .

I think you need to have a Kawphy .

I think this is the only word that every letter is incorrect and every one knows what it says.
