Iraq was an empire's war — sectarian bloodshed for oil, sold as democracy.

Iran is how America used to fight: one goal, minimal casualties, economy intact, peace as the outcome.
@BarbaraMBoyd on the difference nobody in DC will explain.

Most people make these 7 bathroom design mistakes… and then regret it every single day.

@TheMindScourge It's only the men/women with masculinity issue who think this is effeminate. Think he must be double jointed - makes knee crossing more comfortable.

INSTEAD OF WATCHING AN HOUR OF NETFLIX TONIGHT.

This 1 hour Stanford lecture by Joel Peterson will teach you more about negotiation and getting what you want than most people learn in years.

Bookmark it and give it an hour, no matter what.

@Architectolder It's for burning household trash - before the of prevelance of plastic.

@Architectolder I like the white brick but there are now neighborhoods in Dallas that are 60% painted white brick because of the trend. Also the paints and german schmears damage historic bricks if applied incorrectly. A risky proposition.

@Architectolder Modern architecture needs more porches and overhangs to cool our homes and to connect us with our environment and society

[Art & Culture @BB_Benet]

@Architectolder 19th century architectural art. Wrap around porches and high ceilings/tall windows built for an era with no air conditioning. Cupolas and turrets act as natural chimneys drawing hot air up and out. We must preserve these glorious remnants of our history.

@countrysayingss @tobykeith Love Toby. Forever in my heart. He set patriotism example for all who love America.

Love the stained glass windows. Interestingly/sadly many windows such as these exist in the salvage and second hand stores. I am restoring. The vintage houses get canabalized for parts as the houses are transformed into modern boxes or torn down to make way for newer construction projects.

Experimenting with rehabbing a trashed 1930s Tudor. Adding period touches to include new oak hardwood floors, raised ceilings with exposed beams, banquettes, bed niches in bedrooms, custom range hood and raised hearth fireplace. Fun!

@Architectolder Coffered ceilings are appropriate

@Architectolder Looks like a Smith Carona typewriter.
