Mark Kliewer,

Thanks for the tip about the laser measurer. I didn't even know these
exist. I ran out this morning and bought a Stanley Tru-Laster from
Home Depot for $99. I measured the square footage of my house, and it
took me no time at all. This is an awesome tool and a great idea!
Thanks again,
