If Russia attacked Turkey from the rear would Greece help?

Watched the tail end of a program on the rectifying of Morgan University's fight against systemic administrative discrimination by the State of Maryland. Was inspiring. Searched Google to find how gay men were doing at Morehouse College in Atlanta. Their recognition and limited acceptance is pretty nascent, especially in comparison to other colleges, but progress nonetheless. Also inspiring.

Several thoughts come to mind.

First, the idea of a courtyard returning to Western home designs is a welcome one and dovetails with the trend to create outdoor furnished spaces.

However, the exaggerated roof lines seem a catastrophic mistake. In both warm and cold climes, precipitation would be a real threat. For rain, dumping all the water to the center of the house creates a certain problem eventually. For snow, the accumulation in the worst possible place, the entrance, is also a fail.

And if in a dry clime, it would have to be far north, like Spokane or some other place with cooler temps, as that long roofline will absorb a ton of heat in summer.

If the roof is fixed, it would seem desirable to have privacy doors at the front, much like a Chinese mansion, to keep the courtyard from being public.

That’s the only thing you took from that?

I couldn’t help but notice the lack of toilets and sinks in the bathrooms, and why do you need 2 bathrooms downstairs? One room looks like it might be a bedroom and one a tv room, and with the stairs and roof line, I’m taking that there’s an upstairs not shown.

Absolutely. I only have 2-3 thoughts a day, and I share everything I think in posts.

There, feel superior enough?

2.5 baths, actually. Maybe you didn't notice the half bath under the staircase to . . . nowhere . . . in the upper left hand corner. The roof/ceiling is too low to provide any usable space. There can only be a downstairs.

You haved to have a toilet for the service people. It would be unsanitary if they used your family's facilities.

I not only saw it, but noticed the commode was under the landing of the stairs, with the stairs only being one story shown. That means the clearance on the front wall where the toilet sits must only be a few fee tall, as the stairs are clearly not steep.

Also, both baths in the ells have showers, although, like the closets, not to scale (for depth).

That might very well be the intention, as each wing would be for a separate bedroom, but with only one shared toilet downstairs.

On another note, there appears to be no laundry. No one would go upstairs to do it.

That shrub at the end of the sofa seems to be thriving?

I can't think about that today. I've already used up my 2-3 thoughts.

But do carry on with the insults. I miss sophomoric humor.

Only 4 sentences? You couldn’t come up without your 14 paragraphs of whining like usual?

Now, now. If you continue attacking, a mod will break it out as its own thread. After all, it's not for the heck of it. You have a purpose. Your malice is showing.

Does getting laid make you so . . . sociable?

I think you should reread my post about the house because I don’t know what you’re getting so pissed about. You should also reread yours because you’re the own throwing insults. You’ve really become a bully lately. Bullying rareboy, bullying the mods, bullying me. Good day sir, you’re back on my ignore list.
