Well...this is in response to Jay Allen's request to help raise funds for Renata Guzman. We can't tell you exactly how this will work out yet...you'll just have to trust us that we'll do our best to get some positive results out of this "Building Fund Project". So...check it out won't you please http://www.davidbutler.com/ Posted by Janette Balogh (Member # 192) on :

Shameless heart felt bump! Posted by bill riedel (Member # 607) on :
A great idea Dave, it is especially important now that we do not have as much work for Ray lately. Hoping that Spring will increase our volume. I was an early contributor, before the building was built. Let us make it a sky scraper to be proud of.
Posted by david butler (Member # 591) on :
Well I just knew there would be people out there pulling practical jokes with this building project...but this is just craziness...Mark, I'll give you 24 hours to remove that banner or...or else... http://www.davidbutler.com/highrise.html Posted by Mark Yearwood (Member # 2723) on :
..or else what? You're gonna call the Sign Police? I am an official Deputy of the Sign Police.
It wasn't me. I think it was that guy from Texas. He's the only one I know that can't spell "OKIE". Besides, I always get a permit.
Write that guy up and clear my record!
Posted by Jay Allen (Member # 195) on :
Breaking news... I'm speechless. (That's a first)
This is the first I've seen of this.
David, bless your big ol' Hoosier heart. Great idea.
You don't have to move into the "penthouse" of David's building to feel good about helping. For those who don't have anything to contribute to the auction - or those who are too busy, this is a great chance to give. Antyhing is good. One dollar, five dollars, a million dollars, whatever.
Or maybe you're just waiting for the silent auction. That's cool, too. We'll have some great stuff from some well-known sign artists for you to spend the same money on.
A gift is just that - a gift. But you receive one back when you give one first.

Mark, Thanks for taking down your banner..and it's pretty obvious to us all who the culprit was. Raymond...how about taking down your banner now. Oh and hey Mark...I like the shrubs...nice touch http://www.davidbutler.com/highrise.html Posted by Raymond Chapman (Member # 361) on :
That landlord sure is picky.
Mark, I always knew that he liked you best, anyway. Now, I've got to think of something to do to my place to keep up with the Yearwoods.
Posted by Jay Allen (Member # 195) on :
P.S. - I responded to Robert's request for more info in a private email. So nobody has to explain this on this string.
Thanks to all. It's going well!!
OK - back to the contruction work!!
(And how are those banners getting up there anyway? Who's in charge of permits here?)
Posted by Raymond Chapman (Member # 361) on :
Hey Oakie...seen my flag? That picky landlord made me take my banner down, (something about no permit) but he didn't say anything about flying a flag.
Does Oklahoma have a flag?
You do know that Texas is the only state that can fly our flag at the same height of the Stars and Stripes? Yep, it's true. That flag also represents the NATION of Texas after it won its independence from Mexico. Before joining the United States we were the independent nation of Texas.
So there.

Posted by Jay Allen (Member # 195) on :
“We’ve never been so poor - but never felt so rich”
With that innocent phrase, Ray Guzman innocently set this fundraiser in motion. He did NOT intend to say it as a plea for help. He merely was making a statement about how lucky he and Renata felt for having lived the life they had lived up to that minute - and to not take another day or event - for granted anymore. But I heard something in those words that called me to action.
He and Renata are aware of our collective efforts to raise money to help them through this crisis. What they are unsure of is just how to express their sincere appreciation. Words - to them - seem hollow and lacking the incredible and most sincere gratitude they both feel.
So I’ll say something on their behalf - without getting too revealing or personal - to give you some deeper insights into just what your amazing generosity (and wacky creativity!!) has also accomplished. I’m absolutely sure you’ll hear more from them later.
In talking with Renata the other night she informed me that the strong, brave and kind woman that many of us know, has a weaker side - just like most, if not all of us, do. She felt compelled to conquer those inner demons since she saw that as a requirement in beating the cancer she was afflicted with. She believes that we ALL have the power to make our lives better - or worse - depending largely upon our attitudes and experiences.
How does that relate to what we are doing in raising money to help them through the next 4 months of additional treatments? Simple - though I couldn’t have predicted this since my image of Renata is one of an independent and strong woman - through and through. But she’s human - though for some reason I viewed her as being a little more ‘superhuman’ and able to face anything.
Renata is - in effect - stunned by the outpouring of your generosity to the point that she felt a little unworthy of the efforts being shown. Now she knows differently. Now she can clearly see what her friends in this crazy business really think of her. She is equally amazed at the generosity of those she has not yet met.
As Gary Anderson said to me the other day, “I am constantly amazed at the closeness of this tight-knit group of like-minded and talented individuals. My association with the Letterheads has been one that changed me as a person - for the better”. Granted, if we were neighbors and lived next to each other, we’d probably drive each other nuts - as evidenced by the craziness going on here in the “high-rise” with some of the wacky 'tenants'!!
This whole matter with Renata’s Cancer Fund is more concrete evidence of the generous and giving hearts that we all seem to share as Letterheads. We’ve painted up towns to instill community pride; we’ve donated large sums of money for hospitals (congrats to the Pinheads for your most recent efforts in Milwaukee!!) and we take care of our own.
And your actions here have allowed Renata to see what her friends see in her - and the effort will further hasten the healing process for her. I am so amazingly proud of all of you so much that I have spent more than just a few minutes with tears in my eyes for your amazing, compassionate hearts.
I am a Letterhead. That sets me apart from the mass of humanity - and it is a relationship I will cherish for the entirety of my life.
To David Butler, your creativity and playful nature that created this nutty fundraising effort are the reasons you are held in such high esteem in our craft. God bless you and Susie for your sincerity and involvement.
To Steve and Barb, damn the torpedoes, forget about the infighting and bickering you have to monitor and watch over daily and take pride in allowing this forum to do what it is capable of. Your continued efforts in promoting the Letterheads allowed this all to happen - and we should all say a big thank you - and apologize at the same time for any grief any of us may have given you in the past. It IS about sharing - and your forum should be noted and respected for the good it creates daily.
Little did we know that we could have played a part in helping "save" or strengthen a life.
My sincerest gratitude goes out to each of you who have participated so far. But just you wait for that silent auction in a few short weeks!! You’ll see even more just how incredible this group is.
And maybe, just maybe, you’ll feel a little better about yourself too. I sure do.

Raymond...what can we say about the Englishman...we of course can not take any action without a formal complaint http://www.davidbutler.com/highrise.html Posted by Mark Yearwood (Member # 2723) on :
Jay, that was a very good post and says it all. This crazy bunch really does stick together and that's what life is all about.
Working on this project for Taylor Jordan and his "wish" is another case of people helping people and Letterheads have been tremendous in that case, too. He's not even in this field, yet this community has helped make his life brighter.
I'm proud to be associated with such a tight-knit group and feel blessed to be able to participate in this fundraiser for Ray and Renata. They are in our prayers.
This building project is fun stuff in itself! Thank you David and Susie.
Now, tell that Englishman to get the dirty laundry off the balcony!

Posted by Rick Beisiegel (Member # 3723) on :
I think Mr Chapman has to lodge the complaint. After all, who wants english undies hanging in your window?
Posted by david butler (Member # 591) on :
Still no complaints from the Texan...perhaps he's enjoying the shade from Dave "BROKEN LEGS" Smith's clothes line? And Nettie....what kind of bird's nest is that sitting on your window mounted AC? You may want to do a little bird watching out your window there. Rick...that thing about an association? Susie says that's not going to happen! So sit back folks and enjoy your stay...we're doing our best to make you all feel at home here...okay? One more thing and I'll sign off...Dale claims he saw what he describes as a "flying biscuit" buzz by his head while he was out there painting his wall...anybody else see anything strange like that...give the manager's a call downstairs.
Posted by Raymond Chapman (Member # 361) on :
Hey, I just looked out my window and that crazy guy from England has his laundry everywhere. What kind of place is this anyway? Where's that landlord? But then I've heard that the landlord is one of those guys that lives back in the sticks and probably thinks that everyone airs their dirty laundry in public.
I tried to talk to that English guy but he sounds really funny - not anything like how we talk down in Texas. He even drives on the wrong side of the road.
And I also noticed that Yearwood has his windows all boarded up. Must be something strange going on in there that he doesn't want us to see. I'll bet the landlord doesn't know all this is happening.
So, what do I do now? I guess I'll just sit here and it will come to me.
There is a positive side about living here - there's this really cute young lady that lives down stairs. She laughs all the time, but she has this huge machine in her apartment that I've heard prints money. Is that legal? If you go to see her just watch out for the bird poop.
P.S. Anyone know how to get in touch with that landlord? I've tried calling, but keep getting this message that he's either running around the country or writing a book, or something. When does that guy work?

I can't tell you all of what's going on in all of the apartments Boyd...not nice to gossip about your neighbors. Right now I'm slow smoking some pork, beef and okra (for OP) on my grille - should be ready by dinner time. And I'll have some chocolate fondue for the ladies (they know who I'm talking about.
My only complaints are the guy below me keeps coming out on the balcony in just a red thong...eeewww. And the constant smell of turpentine. Once in a while I hear what sounds like cows mooing around the 22nd floor - none of my business.
Well, gotta run for now...goin to buy a telescope for some star gazing (yeah, right).

What a wierd place! Who's that guy in the flannel shirt and what's he doing standing on the clothes line...or whatever that is.
Are there any building codes in this place. Every time I look out the window there is some guy out there painting up everyone's wall.
I noticed that tall guy has already torn up the sign on the penthouse terrace. Must be the same guy that broke Bill's door.
How did the landlord jack up the building a put a new foyer in the place. And I was only gone for a few days. And how does he add those apartments under me - they were not there when I left Friday. I'm going to have to start staying home on the weekend, this thing is just getting too strange.
Hey, I heard that remark about the short Texan. Listen, my legs may be short but they go all the way to the ground. This place is really changing...must be all those Yankees moving in. But I guess we can all get along together.
Now, I've heard it all. There's a guy in this building from a foreign country. Does he have his green card? Must be smoking something - he has this silly grin on his face all the time. Thinks he's a dragon or something.

I'd check with Gary Godby regarding your package Judy... not that I was looking into his windows or anything.
The greenery seems to be out of control... sort of looks like the landlords beard.
And that package of Bisquick has sprouted wings... I think its the great speckled bird or maybe the flying flapjack!
Oh yeah... and tell the Texan I don't have a green card, but I DO have an artistic licence which trumps a green card any day!
The building seems nice and quiet for now, but then again its past midnightand everybody must be tired from the big shindig of last night... no telling what tomorrow will bring.

The Englishman is losing his laundry all over the place. Isn't there some kinda law against spreading dirty laundry? Call the Sign Police somebody.

The design is something that I put together over time in Corel. It's my dream shop and residence. On a more serious note, and I don't know if it's been suggested yet, but what about offering limited edition prints of the building once everyone's moved in? It would be a nice addition to any shop wall.

Hey Butterfield - quit stealing my Chocolates!! I was saving those to bring to one of Kimberly's Gourmet dinners - wanted to share them for dessert. (Bet ya can't eat just one!). Shoot . . . I'll just hold a "Ladies Only" Chocolate Party cuz I know there won't be any left in your basket. Bomba-Dear

When I went out to get the paper this morning I found Yearwood's ribbon against my front door. What's with that?
Oops...did I go too far and say the wrong thing? My apology Mark...you're still the best in my book.
Posted by Don Coplen (Member # 127) on :
The yellow ribbon on my balcony is for my kid, Josh. He's in "only God knows where", Afghanistan for the next 12-18 months. Prayers for his safe return are appreciated.
This morning, a report of another helicopter goin down in Afghanistan. At least 9 sons dead.
I sure wish I knew where he was, so I wouldn't freak out every time there's a report like this. But he isn't allowed to say, for obvious reasons. The eyes are getting regular flushings these days.
Edited to add;
Coplen, Joshua 212th MP Company APO AE 09354
in case anybody wanted to know.

We will all pray for your son Don. I think everyone is touched in some way by our boys over there or knows someone that has relatives or friends over there. Some of these poor guys have had to go back more than once to serve over there. We all need to remember them ALL in our thoughts! Hang in there, Don!

All this talk about this phantom chocolate! I am doubting it even exists. However, I could be persuaded. How bout I drop a rope with a basket down to you Jackie....can you hook a sign brother up? How much rope do I need for 9 stories anyways?
Posted by Jay Allen (Member # 195) on :
After all that Don's been through this past year, I have to imagine that the nuttiness here in the Renata Building is quite a distraction - and a welcome one at that.
All that's goin' on with him in his life and he still donates time and talents to this cause.
Sometimes I feel woefully inadequate - and damn lucky.
I was always taught 'good begets good - and bad begets bad'. Somehow I think Don doesn't have to worry about his son's safety. His actions here seem to dictate that a spirit will be watching over his son if that old adage holds true.
Three 'whoops' for Don - and one more for his son's safety and well being.
WHOOP WHOOP WHOOP!!
WHOOP!!

I'll bring the dessert - Chocolates - that is, if no one steals 'em before then! Butterfield, I invite you to bring along what's left. I got some great Mousse . . . mmmmmmm. Bomba-Dear
Posted by Judy Pate (Member # 237) on :
Ok Mr. Rick..send my package on up and no peeking inside like Bruce did. Kimberly count me in for dinner but I will bring sweet ice tea for my beverage. I see your cat finally made it back home...looks like he took care of Jill's chocolates. Chocolates or chocolate mousse sounds great for dessert,Jackie. Don, seems there is still a bit of wind down where you live. Praying for your son's safe return. I see the Bisquick birdie has taken flight..watch out below! Judy

Geez, I go away for the weekend to attend a race with my daughter and 150,000 other Nascar nuts and come back to find out I've been cloned!
What kind of a freakish building did I move into.....at least I have good neighbors...well at least some of them???
BTW, which one of you has the cloning machine? And can you possibly whip me up a copy of Halley Barry?
Hey Kim, I think you better cut back on the twinkie treats for your cat....gettin' a bit pudgy there!
I wish I had been here to see what has been going on!
Hey Don, hope your son is safe and far from harm over there!
Kim, can I come to your place to eat? All I have in my place is fish sticks and bulletin enamel....
take care

Hey! I thought Raymond was an honest guy, but I see he has scarfed your ribbon Mark. Did he get your flag too?
If that dude on the roof doesn't share his barbeque he may just end up looking like Kimberly's cat
DId you notice the top half of the building levitating right above my suite.... I don't know how that happened... honest!
I suspect there's a great corn roast coming up soon too!
And I see the landlord finally fixed Bill's window. 'bout time! He needs to get out his hedge clippers soon too.
Its great to see so much support for this great cause!

I would like to know when the high speed elevator is going to be installed. This building is getting so big that it would be easier to climb a mountain than do all those stairs. I was lucky to get in on the lower floor.
Posted by Nevman (Member # 332) on :
Jackie & Kimberly...I think the cat ate all of the chocolate - not Butterfield. Better stock up on some serious kitty litter Kim.
Dan, don't worry about me blowing up, Dale comes by from time-to-time to finish off all of the leftovers from the parties.
Riedel...I like the idea of an elevator but I've been thinking about getting a helicopter for my commute.
I'm gonna be away this weekend so could someone keep an eye on that Bisquick bird...I'm worried about big biscuit bombs on my patio and grille. I'd ask Kimberly to send up her cat to get it, but I think the poor thing might pop!
Don - your boy is in my thoughts and prayers.
Have a good weekend y'all.
Posted by Raymond Chapman (Member # 361) on :
Sorry about the flag. Was that a flag? I just thought it was more of that British guy's laundry that has been flying around. I used it for a paint rag...but you can have it back anytime Mark.
I still don't know the story about the blue ribbon.
Like I've said before, sometimes I have no idea what I'm doing. Maybe I did move the ribbon and just don't remember. Senior moment, you know.
Don, like all the rest of us, I pray the best for your son, and for you. It has to be hard to not know and to not be able to protect him like you did when he was young.
Posted by Kimberly Zanetti (Member # 2546) on :

Catherine, I think my cat's hiding out at your place again. Tell him to get his rather ample butt home.
Posted by Kimberly Zanetti (Member # 2546) on :
I think we'll have dinner in my dining room tonight rather than out on the patio. I'll even use the crystal and china.
Sautéed scallops of veal with mushrooms and shallots in a Vermouth Cream Sauce. Rice pilaf and sautéed zucchini.
Lemon meringue pie for dessert.
Please RSVP as I need to know how much veal to buy. Posted by Duncan Wilkie (Member # 132) on :
I'll be there...I'll bring the Kibbles and a little something for the cat. :>

What is that hanging over my name? And who put it there? Did it fall from the apt. above? Why couldn't it be a box of chocolates? That would be much better. When will we be seeing Jack climbing that giant beanstalk? Is that enough of questions for today?
Posted by Santo (Member # 411) on :
As far as I can tell, those items didn't come from up here, Bill. I'm not missing anything, but whose knows what was in that box on my balcony, before it was opened. Miz Judy, is this yours? Does Roger know about this?
Posted by Judy Pate (Member # 237) on :
Those kittens are not mine,Santo. I believe someone emptied my package somewhere along the line. Bruce, who has the contents of my package? Last time I saw it unopened it was at your place. It seems Kimberly's cat used the empty box to deliver her kittens. I'm with you Bill...I think Jack will be along soon to climb this bean stalk. Judy

Good Morning Tennants, This is Suze.We thought we should post an explaination as to the abscence of the Landlord and his antics.I have him working! Just kidding..he really does work daily.We have some deadlines to meet for the Grand Opening of the Sign Museum which by the way is April 28 05 in Cincinnati.He is doing some glass work that he really does enjoy.We do so enjoy this apartment building project and will return soon. You are the ones that have made this possible and we appreciate your giving ways. We should all learn from you.Thank you so much.He will return soon. Suze
Posted by Kimberly Zanetti (Member # 2546) on :
LOL Suze, My daughter Samantha checks on the apartment first thing when she gets up and usually later in the day...I tried to explain to her that David actually has a job and life! I think I got through to her yesterday but she still keeps checking. :-) :-)
Notice how well behaved we've all been in your absence? Hahahahahahaha
Posted by Raymond Chapman (Member # 361) on :
Suze - tell the Landlord that we miss his presence, but know that he has a lot of things on the fire for the museum. Just like this place, he gives of his abilities very freely...but that is translated into time, a lot of time.
I'm sure the inmates will remain calm, cool, and collected until he can return.

Finally, someone reclaimed their shorts that were hanging over my sign an now there is a package at my door. Could it be the mystery package of Judy Pate's? I hope it isn't a bomb.
Posted by Bruce Bowers (Member # 892) on :
Sorry I have been around... Me and Bicyle got busted lurking in the back of the building, armed with numerous rolls of TP. Sgt. McGillicutty of the LSP nabbed us just as Rick was rearing back to fire the first roll.
Bill said he was going to meet us but I guess his Geritol hadn't kicked in yet and he was running late. Maybe he got a last minute tee time and decided to give us the ditch and go shoot nine at the all-nite executive course down the street.
These cats are driving me nuts. I am going to have get my doggies up there. I would tell you about them but it is Dana's job to bore you all with her dog stories. I sure wouldn't want to steal her thunder, you know?
I have been waiting for Bushie to stop by because he was going to give me lessons in the proper drinking of cases of high grade lagers. Boy, I sure got thirsty sitting there at the cop shop waiting to get bailed out.
Well, I have go and try to snag that box. I truly loved the contents of the last one and if'n this one is as good, it will be a bonanza! Woo hoo!

And there's still time to donate if you'd like to include anything in the auction. Just send me an email and let me know.

Number 3-into that same spray bottle put 1 squeeze of part 2. Number 4- return to your floor and spray entire contents onto the leaves just outside your windows (both sides).
