Today's remodeling lesson, part 2

If you work on your own house ...

and if you use the tack hammer for the house wrap tacking to put a big hole in a piece of your window glass ...

and if that glass is in a window that's as old as your old house ...

it helps if your ancestors were all packrats.

If they were, you can go "out behind the garage" or "up in the barn" or to some other random location (and because your family has evolved the brain that keeps track of this sort of thing, you will remember where to go), and you can get an old piece of glass to match, and you can put it in.

Poof! As good as---- um ... as good as old.
