How many ways?

Had a conversation with some friends over the weekend about how ineffective communication is today at times and how many ways we have to get a hold of someone. The winner in our pack had 18 ways to get a hold of him:

1) Office phone

2) Personal Mobile phone

3) Work mobile phone

4) Home phone

5) personal email

6) work email

7) secret yahoo email

8) another gmail account

9) an eFAX account

10) a fax machine

11) a SKYPE Instant Message account

12) a Yahoo Instant Message account

13) a user membership on a business message board

14) a user membership on an adult message board

15) a user membership on a sport message board

16) you could mail him at his office

17) you could mail him at his home

18) you could mail him to his personal PO box

And what we laughed about is that you can never reach the guy.

So are all these communication portals making it easier to get a hold of people or making it easier for us to hide from contact?

Would like to hear if anyone has over 18 ways to get a hold of them - I thought this was crazy. I had 8 ways.

Don't forget the latest craze, text messaging. That would add 3 more way. One to each of his cell phones.

And then the old fashion way - ring the door bell.

      Mounting Signs On EIFS

      By Rocco · Posted

      It depends on what's under the EIFS.   If it's plywood under the foam, then toggles are fine for a lightweight sign.  If masonry, we've come to like the titen HD (simpson strong tie brand) anchors or long wedge anchors.   The Titen HD screws are more user friendly than tapcons IMO.   They come in a variety of sizes, sometimes even at the big home centers.   Just check to see if it's densglass (fiberglass wall panels) under the foam.  Engineeners have told us that densglass isn't "structural" and that things need to be thru-bolted with uni-strut (or equal) sleepers across studs inside the wall.  A few years back, we were called out for an emergency call where someone had installed some large raceway channel letter signs to an EIFS wall that had densglass behind.  They used lag screws.  These held for a while but a heavy snow caused them to fail.   And toggles should work with Densglass but again not for any heavy loads.    In any case don't compress the foam too much.  A sleeve (mentioned above) would be needed for whatever the depth of the foam might be, though probably not needed for something light like an ACM panel.   if it's a really small sign, then appropriate exterior screws are usually OK going into plywood.

      Are there any recommendations for the best types of anchors to use for lightweight signs on EIFS?  <a href=" https://www.phoenixstuccocontractor.com/"> Phoenix Stucco Contractors</a>

      Pepsi logo vinyl colors

      By Rocco · Posted

      Hi   Can anyone tell me the right color red and blue translucent vinyl for the "new" Pepsi logo?  We have a local ice cream spot that recently changed from Coke to Pepsi and we have to replace the graphics on a couple of lit cabinets.   The customer sent me the logo in various formats but it didn't specify the correct colors.   I've searched but keep getting CYMK, etc. for the older logo - 2022 or so.   Thanks!
