From buns to plumbing codes

This week so far I've gone from the complexities of choosing the right hot dog bun to looking up the code for plumbing and air admittance valves. Yeh, in retrospect I wish I had all the money in the world to hire people to do things for me but at least I can say now that I know what the code is for floor drains and hand sinks..... Just in case I decide to (later on in life) go into commercial plumbing. I'm on to the exciting world of french fries tomorrow and hopefully a full day of ordering furniture and fixtures.Things are coming along at Po Dog - we've got a great looking wall framed and a couple of awesome bathrooms also framed. The sandblasting came out amazing! If anyone ever needs a referral for a great sand blaster, do let me know. We are now in full speed ahead mode.A few road blocks (I have expected these to come up, but some were a surprise to me):I know nothing about plumbing. When I hired a commercial plumber I can't say that I really expected to have to look up city codes for them. Man, do I respect plumbers, contractors, electricians and painters alike but there is a reason you won't find me trying to measure out where the hole for a toilet should go. Do you even need a hole for a toilet? I wouldn't know.Convincing a small number of people that everyone eats hot dogs; children, grandparents, male and female and that by no way does a sketch of someone enjoying a Po Dog have a hidden double meaning. I have a really amazing artist that has come up with a great rendering for our mural on the back wall but all has been stopped due to someone or some group of people thinking that an abstract picture of a person eating a hot dog is somehow going to come off as a sexual innuendo. Yeh, there is no way of really pleasing the world in this situation. I love Capitol Hill and I value and respect the love it has for great artists. To those of you who find offense in seeing people eat hot dogs... I hope you can at least enjoy some of our french fries and maybe a beer to make peace.
