Criptic Website

If you are into puzzles (and I am not) forget picking up the Sunday crossword or that Sokukko Duko or whatever it is. Instead, for a real brainteaser challenge, try this:

Go to www.lowes.com and try to find drywall. Sounds simple, but I assure you it is not.

If you look at building materials, you see no heading that it readily fits under.  Don't try Walls or Wall Panels, I'll save you some time there.

A search of drywall will give you: drywall screws, drywall screwdrivers, drywall respirators, drywall hammers, drywall glue, drywall knives, drywall tape, drywall squares, drywall trowels and even something called a drywall giant beam circle.

But what you won't find is drywallI know they sell it, it is stacked to the ceiling at the local store.  Guess some web geek that builds their website likes games.

Guess I'll check Home Depot.

    I ran into the same problem when I was looking for a furnace. I would rather just go to the store, but I'm not as lazy as you are.

      While I am indeed lazy, in this case I am looking for the best price and don't want to drive around 3 counties looking for the best deal.  Since we are talking about 140 sheets of 12 foot, I will be having it delivered unless you would like to help me go shopping.
