    Roundup (weed killer)

    FWIW, I have mostly found in my uses that the best situation is if you can have direct sunlight on the undesired weed. If there is no possibility to have direct sunlight, I agree with other folks use of plain old table salt poured into the base of the weed. I'm no expert, just relating what...

    RIP Pugsley

    So sorry for your loss. R.I.P. Pugsley. I know it's so hard to deal with right now but, you simply must go out as soon as possible and get another pal! Trust me, it will do you heart the most good. Maybe adopt one from the Rescue that you mentioned donating to? Feel better soon.

    so apparently a 23% tip wasn't enough...

    I have had this happen to me in the past. It's probably considerable overkill but, when I fill out a cc receipt I always do two things: 1. Make sure the tip line is filled in. 2. I actuall write the total I intend to be charged in cursive words right underneath the total line. (Much like...

    Is Amazon Prime worth it if I don't buy a lot from Amazon?

    One other note to OP: With respects to the E-Books, you must have a Kindle device. The software app for the IPhone will not work with it. Although not a huge thing, I learned this the hard way. All of that said though, I find that Prime is a good value for those like me who just don't have...

    Hot sauce consumption

    In terms of flavor, I personally enjoy the accents that Orange Crush brings to the tase of several different foods. Eggs, Chilli, a light dripping on a freshly grilled Porterhouse, and of course a drop or two in a fresh Bloody Mary...

    Raccoons! How do I get rid of em?

    Had a family of them inhabit my attic a few years back. What worked for us was to call a professional pest (nuisance animal) company. The company bought out a few humane traps baited with marshmallows. The racoons absolutely LOVE marshmallows. The traps were checked for the next few days and...

    Big Bang Theory

    Does anyone else stick around to the very end of the show to read the vanity cards from the Producer? Most are fairly humorous if not downright funny.
