Dear Peckery,
Are monkey bristle brushes good for painting?
Kassia
ps
my youngest decided to put the flea ridden wombat aside, and have his brother shave his head in a mohawk. except when it is waxed and and you see him from the front , he looks like a kewpi doll. when he forgets to wax it and lets it hang down flacid, he looks like a bare faced Hitler.

Dear Kassia

You should bakini wax the older son and send him down to work the boulevard down north of Disneyland. That way your husband can drop him off aand pick him up on his way to work.
The younger one you should just slap around and say things like "I brought you into this world and I can sure as hell take you out." Children respond well to this kind off love.

Dear Peckery, King of Vice,

It has come to our attention that bits of good advise have drifted into your advice column. This must CEASE, or I will hold my breath until I turn blue! Otherwise, you are doing a SUPERB job of messing with people's minds. biggrin.gif

My Lord,

Thank you for your kind words. I am just a fun loving Peckery that is often misunderstood. I don't remember giving out any GOOD advice though. Where did I slip up??? Drive down to Indy next week. We have a local show for a change. You can stay at Casa Peckery if you are not allergic to dogs or cats!!! So what's it like with a key to the MODS washroom. biggrin.gif

Yes he has landed, looking very dapper in one of the shirts that you got for him. I was just going to compliment him on his taste, when he disclosed where he had gotten them

all brothers in an uproar. I think that they are all 5 years old again ,, except all at the same time.
any suggestions from the great one??

Dear Kassia

Tell the twitbirds to be nice to their older brother. He is going to Korea to protect the world from Kim Jong Puffyhair, after all. Bought him some nice clothes when he visited. Hard finding stylish clothes in XXXL on a military salary.

Dear ASE

When I said sprayer or brush or roller, maybe I should of said restoration quality (brush and roller) or maintenance paint job via sprayer.
The roller and brush job would bid higher reflecting the man hours and amount of paint needed. Spraying only needs one half of the paint of a restoration paint job, but only lasts a third as long.
To spray exterior would take 325 gal of primer @ 200 sf coverage and 325 gal finish coat@ 400sf gallon (two coats) 30 gallons of semi gloss for trim for a total of 680.
This is assuming you want a regular latex base and not an elostomeric. If you want elastomeric finish, multiply finish coat gallons needed by eight.
