Funniest guy I ever met, Gramps. Catch him if you can, during the depression he couldn’t find work, feed his family, so he posed as a bricklayer and helped build Timberline Lodge. He was a blue collar scrapper.

one time i was at a friend's choir concert and the world's most enthusiastic bricklayer was sitting next to us and he commented on how the building must have been renovated because part of it was structural brick and part of it wasn't

Their collection is a goldmine for architectural historians, historians of technology, design historians, etc. They even have full print runs of science and tech magazines running back to the late 19th c! Yet they've now got one part-time librarian, no new acquisitions budget, open only by appt.

I’ve been watching Physical 100: Mexico, and it is very funny to see the athlete known only as “the Legendary Bricklayer” choose the challenge that is basically racing to carry the materials and then build your own suspension bridge

I still remember going to the work side a couple of times to watch my grandfather, a proud bricklayer in Cleveland, Ohio. I can still remember the melodic slapping of mortar-you know, then bricks-then the trimming, and it was all done w such precision, when I travel, I look for brick buildings walls
Laying bricks looks simple, but a good mason can set 300 to 600 a day while keeping every row level with a string line and 10 mm joints.

Andrzej Wajda’s Man of Marble (1977) helped convince me communism was a failure. Almost Citizen Kane-like, it follows a student investigating a bricklayer turned national hero for laying the most bricks in eight hours. 😂 Propaganda creates heroes, then destroys them. Brilliant film.

One hundred men are indicted for sodomy in the Mexican Inquisi-tion under the Duke of Albuquerque. Fourteen are burned to death. Another, because he was young, was lashed 200 times and sold to a bricklayer.

I wonder if he helped build Maple Leaf Gardens? My grandfather was in WW1 and was a bricklayer. He had a free seat for life and attended every game there. Harold Ballard gave everyone that worked on it one of the cheap seats...nose bleeds and in the corners where some of the ice was blocked

I'm afraid you've got me there! As much as I like Kai Ryssdal and the way he prounounces "Marketplace" like an expert bricklayer applying mortar with a trowel, I think I stopped listening a few years ago because I wasn't hearing poverty economics enough then, and I wasn't following Kai Ryssdal yet.
