None of this is to say the house is done or somehow complete. The code violations were all of the exterior variety. The interior remains only semi-habitable. Point being we are now in compliance with code requirements and so shouldn't find ourselves in Akron's version of environmental court.

I'm so excited about this! My wife and I wanted to see this show in Brooklyn but didn't get there. Now we've got a long weekend in Chicago planned for later this month.

In sports, you have coaches that can help players improve their performance. Athletes can also review game and match films and look for mistakes. There's no really practical way to do that sort of thing for drivers. People are just out there making the same mistakes over and over again.
