Yes, and you have to dig deep in some places to get below the frost with your foundation. In those places a basement makes sense because you're digging that far either way. Texas frosts don't get very deep, so you're able to have a shallower foundation making a basement just an extra cost.

Just generally, you can get a report of your municipal water testing. The biggest safety variable that I would be worried about testing at home for is lead in the pipes between me and the treatment plant. That includes my house/building and the municipal pipes.

Now taste, that's a to each their own situation. Sulfury water is my limit for sure. No thanks!

Yes, and I have been hassled for it (not in Florida). Small town cops are the worst by far. I imagine if you have a nice car you might slip by though.

Way better: 37% of 72 = 72% of 37

(Or any other numbers)

If that's true why aren't the sugar water pools in rainbow order. Folks, let's not get tricked by fake news. The real threat is rainbows and, of course, double rainbows.

To further illustrate your point, most of the men pictured are likely 'obese' by BMI standards

You forgot this part of that claim - "And I didn't get help from nobody neither"

Poach equals lower temp liquid. It can be oil or water type liquid. Boil is maximum temp water type liquid only. Blanching is boiling for a short time with the intention of not cooking all of the way through (eg to get skin off or to prepare for preservation by freezing).

Fry and saute are used interchangably all the time. One person's fried onions is another's sauted onions. Saute should indicate small pieces turned or tossed in a moderate amout of fat. Fry can be small or large pieces and can have moderate to lots of fat as a cooking medium.

Note that this is how normal people in my region and life use these terms and I make no claim that this is 'right' just my experience.

Looks like a recipe for disaster for sure

Penmanship counts

I know this isn't what you want to hear, so just tell me to shut up if you want. But, this feels a little performative. You must know and like movies in all of those catagories. Why not pick your favorites and go with those? I expect you'll enjoy the end result more than 'classics' with no specific meaning to you.

You've just designed a crab. Again.
