I need a piece of luggage that will make it multiple trips all over the world and am willing to pay a decent amount for it. I am considering a rolling duffel by Ogio - it is made of nylon.

Please tell me what kind of material is the best for luggage? I just had three pieces fall apart within three trips this year.

We are going to San Francisco/Santa Cruz and Vallejo during the week we are there. I am just wondering when the best window would be to book the plane tickets?

Do any of you know how to stretch boots out at the top a bit so they fit better?

I bought a five piece set of luggage at Macys last Thanksgiving..and after two trips to Vegas and one trip to Ontario they are worthless. Completely ripped up and a mess.

What is a good piece of luggage? Something that I can pack 7 days worth of clothing, etc. in and that will last for at least three years, and also that will endure going all over the world.

I see that Diane Von Furstenburg luggage gets good ratings, but they are expensive! The more I look the more it seems like I am just going to have to bite the bullet and pay the money.

What about the rolling duffel bag style? Ogio seems to make good ones.

Your opinions on luggage are greatly appreciated!

I am trying to find out what exhibits will be on display when I am in town next week.

Thanks!

I've had the phone for two days, and it keeps just powering down for no apparent reason. The battery is full. I've tried to see if I could find something in the settings to stop this, but can't find anything.....help!

So freakin annoying!!

I haven't played a video game since the first Nintendo came out when I was a kid (yes, that totally dated me!) but my husband and I want one!

I am going to put cheese, cranberry, pecan, etc. in the chicken..and then put some lemon slices and olive oil over the top of it. And add some brussel sprouts and broccoli in the packet.

Do you think this will cook up well on its own, or should I brown the stuffed chicken first? Its been a long time since I've made packet food on the bbq.

I set 16 mouse traps around and so far its worked..but in the older flower beds she dug yesterday (where there aren't any mouse traps). I about killed her...well I wanted to anyways. Some times I swear she can hear rodents scurrying in the soil because she will stare at the dirt and tilt her head like dogs do when they are listening.

Anyways, got any other ideas?

I've been drinking Tanqueray Rangpur Gin for about two years now...and I ordered a gin & tonic from the well at a bar a couple weeks ago and couldn't drink the cr@p! I was shocked, I thought for sure I would like it and didn't think anything of ordering it. It tasted like rubbing alcohol.

So now I guess I am a gin snob. I only like the good stuff. D@mn the good booze, d@mn it!

I am chewing the Strawberry Mint flavor right now and the noise is driving me insane!

The logo is "Just Brushed Clean Feeling" so maybe its "brushing" my teeth. What do you think?

I stopped eating regular cucumbers because I got tired of tasting them all day. But now these ones make me so gassy I can't hardly stand being in the same room with myself!

Just wondering if anyone else has this experience? Is there no such thing as a gas-less cucumber??

And about 3 feet deep at the most.

Thank you!

I just want to fill this pond with some plants and maybe a mosquito eater fish and thats it. Very simple.

I think the pond is a 50-75 gallon pond. Not very big - maybe 2.5 ft deep, 3 feet long and 1.5 wide and the widest.

Also, can I put any plant in the water? - Grasses, Banana Leaf Tree, etc?

I live in Oregon so I need plants that are hearty and that can also live in partial shade.

Thanks for your advice. Please don't give me alot of links without any explanation.

I have stayed on the strip many times and would like to stay somewhere else and get a different experience of Vegas. I am staying at the Winn for three nights in September for work, but my husband and I are coming down three nights ahead of time for pleasure.

What other resorts are there, aside from the two listed above that have great pool areas, a casino and really good eating options. We essentially want to have it all in one spot, so we don't have to go anywhere.

This is the wrong forum, but I know brides generally opt for pedis and mani's the day of their weddings...and I am going to start in a salon again soon, so can you give me your opinion of the following pedicure options and pricing?

I am curious to see if the government is "ahead" on mailing checks out like they are with the deposits.
