   He might have a point if his work was better.

   I watched 2-3 of his other videos. The tuckpointing one is classic. "What do I need a mask for? It's just dust". I expected to see him hack up some blood right after that just for shiggles and gits.http://www.quittintime.com/      View Image

   The shaky camera work is a real bonus. Makes you feel like you're in a 14' boat in the middle of a hurricane.And that guy's heavy breathing? About half of the videos I'm fully expecting that he's just going to drop over dead.'Man who say it cannot be done should not interrupt man doing it' ~ Chinese proverb

   He's got one about muriatic acid. So there he is, up maybe 20' on scaffolding, ready to acid wash the mortar on a brick chimney. While looking through the camcorder's viewfinder he starts pouring acid into a drywall bucket containing water...you can see droplets splashing up and getting on the camcorder lens.He starts scrubbing away on the chimney with acid spray going everywhere...and all the while it looks like the homeowner is underneath the scaffolding, weeding her garden, looking up at her mason, trying to figure out what the heck he's yelling about, and what is that burning mist that's descending down from above and burning my eyes?He's a classic. Letterman has to get this guy on his show.

   The thing that caught my eye was the downspout dumping right on top to the electrical service. The meter base had a big old rusty streak running down the face.

   That's not a downspout - it's the conduit for the feed to the box.

   He's so full of it with the safety issues about the mud ball in your bare hands all day, but I love his attitude.

   His work looks about like I would expect it to.

   I've worked with dozens of guys like that and they are a hoot. But...

   I'm the one with healthy lungs and no pin holes in my hands.

   Whatever.
