Somehow I ended up with Bro #1 and #2 for dinner, as well as the four of us, Adopted Son, and Gen.

Steak, pork shank, chicken something or other, baked potatoes, salad (not pictured) and burgers (still on the BBQ at this point):

Yes, I am in great shape ... if round is a shape!
It most certainly is! I have spent the last 67 years perfecting that shape and have finally gotten it to its glorious, majestic place. What's that old saying... "Thin may be in, but, fat is where it's at.":cool:

Another thing to remember is fat fills in wrinkles. Want to look younger have a cheeseburger!

Yes. But a backsplit is a house of staggered levels.

Level #1 (Top level) - 3 bedrooms and a bath. Equivalent to the second storey of a traditional home.

Down 8 steps, as opposed to 13 or 14 to Level #2 - living room, dining room, kitchen, front door. This level is 8 risers above grade. That's why you see so many steps leading to my front porch/front door in my pics.

Down 5 steps to Level #3 - side entry, hallway, bath, huge family room with patio doors to deck. This level is 2 risers above grade, is the exact same size as the bedroom level, and sits directly beneath the top level.

Down 8 steps to Level #4 (first basement level) - rec room, kitchenette, bedroom, laundry/bath. This level sits directly below the kitchen/living room level, and is only about half below grade

Down 4 steps to Level #5 (the basement, completely below grade) - two storage areas, a second rec room, utility room (furnace, water heater), huge walk in closet. This level sits directly below the family room, and has slightly lower headroom.

Levels 1,3, and 5 face north.
Levels 2 and 4 face south.

Levels 1 and 2 roofs are separate, and each has its own attic area and separate access hatches. You cannot access one attic from the other.

In short; yes five storeys, but each is smaller than in a traditional 3-level 2-storey. Yes, four sets of stairs, but only half flights. Split levels, due to their configuration, are difficult to cool.

And thus ends my most boring ever post.

@donaldtoo could probably explain it using American terms, in half as many words.
I've noticed Canadian bungalows and ranches mean something completely different than in the U.S.
I will need a map or blueprint lol. I'm confused. :hilarious:
I only seen these kind of houses when they are hanging on a cliff or a big slope.

Appropriate to a degree, but, one has to show a lack of interest in being manipulated. That is done by explaining which direction to "pi$$ off" in.
another alternative for such kind of problems.. specially when someone is complaining like he owns the place and demands special things.. is :
"Deal with it"

Alternatives:

"You will survive"
"aww so bad!"
"Tough luck buddy"

I wonder if you can successfully say the famous Optimus Prime line and TRULY ROLL OUT with skill ;)
