Vent, I have to vent

I知 amazed, I am running a add on Craig痴 list giving away a house that someone could ether move or tear down for the materials. People have been coming out of the woodwork telling me anything from if you rent all the equipment I値l supply the labor for X dollars. To asking if they can rent it. Just makes you wonder if people are really that stupid or if they are just asking to see if the add is real.

dont you just love CL???

A buddy at work tore down an old barn and gave the wood to another guy at work. finally, after a couple months of come get your wood, he loaded it on a trailer and hauled it to the other guys house and dumped it in his front yard.
The only thing that amazes me more than what people will steal is what you cant give away.

I致e actually had one call and ask what a pier and beam house was, and could he move it like a mobile home. I told him if he needed to ask then I would not let him have the house GO AWAY. He has not called back.

Havent had the CL experience yet but will be trying them out in the next year to dispose of some items. Sounds like it could be interesting.
