    The most dangerous words you can think during a remodeling project are "as long as we're here, we might as well..."

    So true. The very same thought turned a 10-minute repair into a five-hour ordeal on my back underneath the eveaporative cooler on my roof last weekend.

    The next most dangerous words are, "That can't be too hard. It might even be fun."
