I remember playing O'Neill in football in high school.

I am kind of a Jack of all trades, master of none. I have done everything from Maintenance work to Youth counseling. Painting houses to wrenching on cars.

BUT, honestly, the job isn't as important as finding the right house. Looking to rent and want something in the country. No idea where to start with that.

Is that where everyone dresses up in yellow and black and pretends that they are relevant? Oh, wait.... sorry, was thinking of game day in Iowa City. :frog:

Is there a newspaper or a shopper for that area? Searched an O'Neill paper but the classifieds were empty.

I'm not sure. O'Neill is a decent sized town for this area though, so I would think so.

We have Norfolk where I'm located, so I usually don't travel out westward en sech

Don't give yourself too much credit, it's just a pamplet. Not like you're on the front of the building or anything.

LOL -- RA

the whole town is nuttin but Irish and filled taverns and what not

I have some property about 30 miles from there. Straight shot down the tar. Most of the people in that area use O'neill labor if it's better than what they got. They have no choice but to get their concrete from there, then find someone to finish it.
