[Highland Park] iPad keyboard: Were you looking?
by Thomas Waters 19 Aug '12

19 Aug '12

A week or so, I exchanged emailed with someone looking for a iPad case and/or keyboard with plastic keys. I can't seem to find the emails, but I wanted to alert them that 1)my parter will have an apple bluetooth keyboard to see at a great price, and 2) Brookstone at the mall, has an iPad case with built in keyboard with plastic keys. They didn't have one in stock at McKnight Rd, but the salesman, John was having one sent in from the airport store, and they have more out there. They had plenty of cases for iPad 2's and 3's in stock. If you want one, the salesman John will be moving to the Monroeville store or you just have to ask to have them get you one from the airport store. The iPad 1 cases were on sale. If the apple keyboard is of interest, please contact me. -- Thomas C. Waters 412-400-8777 thomaswaters(a)mac.com http://thomascwaters.com http://QLATB.com twitter: tcwaters

We have a wooden porch swing for sale. It is 3 years old, and only spent 2 years outside (always undercover) as we had taken it down a year ago and have had it stored in the basement. So it is still in very good condition. Purchased from porchswings.com for $250. We are asking $175, and we can also provide you with the chains for hanging it up which we purchased separately. If you are interested please let me know and I can send you a picture. Thanks, Catherine -- www.cutandsewstudio.com

[Highland Park] glowing recommendation for brick work - Larry Karam, Karam Restoration
by Siobhan Vivian 19 Aug '12

19 Aug '12

Hey HP Neighbors, I wanted to write a quick post highly recommending the services of Larry Karam for any brick work you might require on your house. He just finished up a sizable job for us and we couldn't be more pleased. Larry did some repointing, repaired several courses on our chimney, and toothed-in a hole for a sliding glass door installation. His prices were incredibly fair. He was meticulous, communicative throughout the process (from estimate until clean-up), and just a complete pleasure to work with. In fact, our contractor remarked at the level of craftsmanship of Larry's repairs, saying that "Not too many guys do that kind of work anymore." Larry wrote up a contract and required no money from us until the job was 100% finished and we were completely satisfied. That guarantee is a testament to the work he performs. He can be reached at 412.616.3549 Best, Siobhan Vivian

I'm looking for recommendations for a once-a-month housecleaning service — independent contractors preferred, bonding a plus, references a necessity. Must be willing to work around a friendly but slightly neurotic older dog. Thanks in advance.

Hi Neighbors, I have five pairs of Dockers Straight or Slim fit size 30Wx32L pants that my fast growing teenager wore for 9th grade at SciTech last year. Two are dark grey and in almost perfect condition, asking $15 each. The other three (one black, two khaki) each have a worn spot under the front right pocket from carrying keys or pencils; asking $5 each for these. I also have a pair of Nautica dress pants, young mens size 20 in excellent shape (worn for 8th grade graduation) for $15, and a pair of Hollister Khakis size 30x30 that he was able to wear to SciTech last year, these are slightly worn, asking $5. THere is a second pair of 30x30 Hollister Khakis with an ink stain in the front that are free. Let me know if you are interested and you can come by and take a look. Best regards, Caroline
