  • How to find out about author's personal appearances?

    I'm not looking for a specific author, just when someone from the genres that I'm interested in will be in Western North Carolina or Eastern Tennessee. None of the book companies websites have anything like this, and none of the chain bookstores have store specific newsletters.

  • Where can I find who's on the ballot in my area? ?

    I know who's running for president, and I've already made up my mind who to vote for. But I have no idea who's running for what on the state level and on the local level. I went to vote411.org and let's just say lacking info is just the half of it. So, here I am actually wanting to research the issues instead of just picking names and no one will provide me with the names to start with.

  • Step-by-Step: How do you lay a floor?

    The entire floor needs to be replaced, and we are arguing over how many layers of sub-floor needs to go down and the thicknesses. It seems a simple process, rip out the old, check out the levelness of the joists, shim where it's uneven, cut the subfloor where it can be nailed down on the joists, then level it out with self leveling compound then install your floor on top. Am I missing some steps or what?

  • What kind of mouse pad for a laser mouse can I write on?

    Fabric doesn't allow the pad to glide, and a plain table top slows it down. right now I'm using a piece of paper and that works fine. But I'd like something I can reuse, I feel bad about throwing the paper away when it gets dirty or ripped. I do like the fact that I can write on my mouse pad.

  • How much would an architect charge me for blueprints?

    I have a 1901 house that wasn't much to begin with, and after the "modern" remodel. It's a generic looking box. I found a picture of a 1901 three story house that I think my home could become. I don't know when I'd actually do the remodel, but I'd like to have drawings to show the contractors when I do.

  • Why is nudity thought to be a statement of sex?

    I'm a nudist, not an exhibitionist. I don't get a sexual thrill from displaying my body I just don't happen to like clothes very much. Yet, I have people assuming that because I'm comfortable with my body that I'm free with my sexual favors. Or they assume that I'm flirting with them or their boyfriends. Why? I'm rude and don't like people staring at me, so it's not my behavior that's considered a turn on. I'm fat, so it's not like I'm an escapee from playboy. But I'm not going to wear clothes to make others feel good when they are invading my private space. I've only been nude in public once, the rest of the time I'm just living my life as I see fit. I don't understand the preoccupation with my naked body, people see naked bodies all the time on tv, in magazines, and etc. You'd think people would be indifferent to the whole thing.

  • How much should design consultation cost?

    My house was built in 1901, and I'd like to give a nod to that in every room in the house and the landscape as well. I'd like to have a designer come up with some drawings that I can look toward as I furnish and remodel the house myself a little at a time. I have no intention of undertaking a massive debt to fund a remodeling project, so can I pay a designer for basically their drawings and story board of my house.

  • What does a 1901 home look like?

    It's a mill house built in the same style as about 100 others on my road, but it's been renovated to where it looks like a new home. I want to add some period details with a nod to the time period, but something still in keeping with the open airy feeling it has now. So could someone clue me into what home decor movements were going on?

  • Can anyone give me a cheap non-toxic way to get rid of fleas in the house and off a sensitive dog?

    He's allergic to flea shampoo, allergic to the flea bites, and is suffering. The vet put him on Frontline and a hypo-allergenic shampoo, but it wasn't affective. He would still get bitten, and his reaction would start all over again. We've treated our yard, flea bombed the house, and shampooed our other dog, but somehow they still find him. We need a way to kill them before they bite, preferably something to put around the house and on him. We've spent hundreds of dollars on things that don't work, and I don't mind the expense but it's kind of a pinch to bomb, treat the yard, shampoo him with special shampoo, shampoo the other dog, treat them both with Frontline, and so on every time he has an outbreak. So would someone please tell me what gets rid of fleas.

  • Do you think a prejudiced man should be in congress?

    As part of the Pagan Unity Campaign, I sent out letters stating that I

    was pagan and a voter to my government representatives. I got this

    e-mail in response and I'm calling to all pagans and atheists to get

    this man out of NC Congress. Because frankly if you can't at least act

    tolerant you shouldn't be in a position of power.

    Stephanie,

    Jesus is the only answer.
