Silly Roofers!

Not a week goes by without a roofing contractor stopping in and asking if we need a new roof put on the old place. They always make it sound like they’re the very first ones to notice too… I can’t imagine why they would think we need a new roof, do you? Just because the tarps are so old they constantly flap in the breeze and there’s a huge hole in the back where the oak tree fell on it, naaa, we don’t need a new roof. We like that it leaks in about 5 different places.

Needs a new roof?

Yes, I took this photo today, it will be 2 years this coming August since Katrina blew thru here and we’re still waiting on FEMA to decide whether or not the house will be repaired or demolished. Don’t you just love governmental bureaucracy at it’s finest?

Bastards…

    I can just imagine the conversation…

    “Excuse me Mr. Se7en, did you by chance notice you need a new roof?”

    *snorts*

    Do you go after them with slingshots or bb guns? ;-)

    Stupid FEMA. Perhaps you should handle this the New York way and have someone “pay these guys a visit” if you know what I’m sayin.

    @$$wipes.

    I really just can not believe that FEMA has let these homes go this long. By the time they get around to making a decision, a house would have to be condemed because of water damage, even if it could have been salvaged in the first place. Its a disgusting shame.

    Wow, that FEMA’s right on top of things.

    Don’t worry about it, Se7en. “Good Job Brownie” will be right there.

  13. Dirty Bitch Society Said:

    That’s a damn shame. Roofing works so hot, better get it done now, huh?BTW, I love my newest template.

  14. Julie Said:

    I hate this administration and everyone connected with it.

    But I heart the Worf gravatars. :)

  15. Linda Said:

    So are they waiting on the next hurricane to come through and make the decision for them or what??

    Excellent post. Honestly, it would be great if it was just you (well, not for you), but it’s the other coupl’a hundred thousand who’re still waiting for such things that makes it a *real* bummer.
