Haven't we all asked ourselves that question at least once in our life and I'd say if it asked was only once you might have lived in the duldrums and on the overly cautious side of the fence? We cannot live our lives in caution. For caution does not bring about experience and whelps. And as my father once told me "experience and whelps build character," and we all need character. No? Yes! So cast caution into the wind and keep a good eye on it. Sometimes experience swoops down upon us without warning and the result is whelps. And the subsequent result is character.

You don't have to slip or trip to raise said roof or bring a house down. You don't have to molest the integrity of a structure to raise or bring down. No quaker needed nor demolition crew contracted.Anyways...I stray. The query at hand: Is it better to raise the roof or bring down the house?
