    Don't get too upset, that's just standard Craigslist communication. Like someone says they are learning Spanish and the person they are talking to automatically says Comó estás?

    The problem is that it'd be a transition strip between two sections of identical flooring, which kind of shouts, "I'm bad at flooring!"

    Meh. Just make it a wide strip with a different tint if it is in a door area. Then you meant to do it.

    Fortunately it is in a door area. I'm going to call the manufacturer tomorrow to see if they have T-molding in the same color as my floor. If they do, I'm going to get crazy with my attempt to integrate with the safety net of having the strip available. Kind of funny because my other option is pretty much the same thing, but without the safety net.

    I feel like I should have been done with this yesterday, but because my house is stupid, everything continues to take forever, even as I get better at dealing with it. In this case it is steel door jams that go all the way down to the concrete, so instead of a simple cut and sliding under, I am spending the time to cut around every corner. It will look fine once I caulk everything when I'm finished.

    Thanks Jim. The manufacturer makes T mold, just need to make sure it is the right color.

    I would reply and say that I have other interested parties so they need to overnight their check ... and they would! At one time I had more than 60 bogus checks from these dirt bags. Just to mess with the more persistent ones I would tell them that I had not received the check, they should cancel it and overnight me another. And they would!!! It has to cost them something to send me a check overnight.

    Then my wife made me stop because all of the phony checks were piling up on the dining room table. I once received over 30 checks in a three day period.

    I should do this and give them my neighbor's address. He's been kind of a dick lately. Well, always was a dick really, but now he's being blatantly dickish.
