Sorry Ladies and Gentleman (I mean Gentlemen). I am used to Gerry backing me up if I get tied up and don’t post a QOD. I did not even check back to realize it had not happened. I will try to not let it happen again. I think Gerry has been having some computer problems. Anyway, here goes

I would consider this advertising.
Not allowed in a residential neighborhood.
If you were in Dublin, Ohio (where Jack holds the Muirfield Tourney) the sign MUST be brown. And yes all for sale signs (real estate) must be brown and white. They also have a landscape police. Not kidding.
The State of Ohio "tried" (under a federal law) to get those own barns that had a Mail Pouch ad on them to pay a permit fee to keep them.

Thanks Kevin, I was trying to figure out what he meant.
The "correct" answer to this QOD, only in my opinion, but I wrote it, is that C is the correct answer. The reasoning for this, instead of "a" is that since I was not there when then house was built I don't know when the back doors were put on, so that could have been that way from the beginning. "C" is the correct answer because as inspectors for us to say what caused it could put us in a position of being incorrect which may lead to being second guessed. Simply stating that the missing brick would/could lead to water penetration and damage to structure covers the same thing without giving an opinion as to what the cause was.

Dave,
While I don't disagree with you much, I just have to on this one. I would never answer C in this type of situation. If water penetration is your concern with a large cantilever like that, you have bigger problems than the missing brick work.
Did you take the cantilever into account when the answer to this question was written?
