I own a home which is over 50 years old. So you can imagine some of the “home improvements” required each year. Last year I took some nasty old outdoor carpet off our side porch. What I didn’t know was the carpet was keeping the old concrete from crumbling off.
I guess it got to the point I thought it was a hazard and the wife pointed out how trashy it looked. So I bought a sledgehammer at the old home depot which ended up being too small for the job. Even with the 20 pound sledge I borrowed from the neighbor. I have still only put a small dent in the excessively thick concrete.
Then comes the realization I have been sitting in front of a computer far too long and my body is prtesting greatly.
I then started to daydream about finding money buried underneath I could use to pay someone to finished the job for me. Then is progressed to maybe finding a dead body under the porch. Then the city could finish the job for me. Is that weird?
So the score stands, Porch 1 Tyler 0.
Stay tuned for more entertainment as Tyler attempts to talk trash to the porch in order to break it’s will.
Also if anyone has access to a jackhammer or small explosives let me know.

Jackhammer? No.
Jackrabbit? Yes.
You could also resort to face melting acid …
Nah, best stick to trash talk! Or, just cover the darn thing up with a small jungle, or a toilet seat (model XXXL), or a scouting magazine poster …
