That's what my buddy said to me as I was up on a ladder and he told me to look out the window at the adjacent house...not an optical illusion! Just an old house in downtown Charleston. I would hate to have to install cabinets in it!

I knew a kid in school that had a small addition on the back of their house. It had the kitchen on the first floor and a another bathroom and closet on the second floor. The addition had sunk so much that water wouldn't drain from the sinks/tub. |

The funny/crazy thing is, it looks like they installed those window bars level... so they are very noticeably crooked.

That was my first thought until I saw how well the window lined up with the brick wall below. |

Isn't anyone curious as to what's going on inside the owners heads? Sinking house, bars on windows and a blatant peeping tom across the street. Maybe this was one of those episodes of Renovation Realities - homeowners + jackhammer + recip saw =  |

I don't get the "Democratic house" joke. I'm pretty out of touch, so please explain so I can laugh, too.

I like everything plumb, square and level. No conflicts with gravity that way.
