My insulation projects featured in The San Diego Union

My first year at Mira Mesa High School I made friends with Mark Holland.  He was a newspaper carrier and he recruited me into the business.  My first official job was delivering newspapers for The San Diego Union.  Each day I’d get up around 4am to put rubber bands around each paper, load the papers into a basket on the front of my bike as well as saddle bags on my back bike rack.  Then I’d peddle around the neighborhood and try to toss each paper onto my customer’s porches.  When I had time I’d read my copy of the newspaper.  I never expected to see myself on the front page in the future.

  1. Awesome, congrats!

  2. Great article about you and your projects! Congratulations!

  3. How cool Soo! Pun intended lol. Congrats on the article and hopefully helping a few folks in the process, who can get helpful tips from all your lessons learned!

    1. Thanks! They can spend the money they save on food which is also very expensive now.

  4. Liked your article & cost savings! I hang a fan in the window, facing outside, with one open window somewhere across the house. It pulls cool air in through the open window, and cools all the rooms on the way out of the house, like a chimney effect. You can shut any doors that aren’t necessary in the path of cool night air.

    1. Thanks! I’m curious why you don’t have the fan facing inside to pull the air in and force the air out the other open window?
