  • swing on child's swingset where the kids face each other and push with their feet, what is that called?

    I'm looking for an adult size of that swing to purchase or build for my backyard.

    I don't know if they have a name... I cannot find it. I've tried glider swing, etc.

    I know I had the most fun as a child on my swing relaxing while pushing with my feet on the pedestal.

    Thanks!

  • Christian response to Ishmael by Daniel Quinn?

    I've never read this book; thanks (not) to summer reading I suppose I will have to. My high school son has it for required reading over the break.

    What I've read about it online leads me to believe it's a bunch of nonsense and almost mocking God.

    Please don't start a religious debate with me...go elsewhere. There are plenty of people on here who want that.

    I'm interested in getting a Christian perspective (perhaps a rebuttal) to this book.

  • Hotel at Las Colinas, Dallas Texas?

    My family stayed at a hotel in Las Colinas a couple of years ago and I cannot remember the name...It was really nice, I think it was the Marriot but the photos didn't match the place. It had balconys staggered off the back that were protruding from the building making at least the back side sloped. I think it was stucco........it wasn't the Four Seasons.......we stayed there a different year. If you can help, thanks! I would like to stay there again this summer.......the suites were the best we've found for a family.

  • Is there a cell service that lets parents restrict kids phones?

    I know there is the Firefly phone. But I hear that one doesn't get good reception. Anyone know about the reception? We have ATT for one more year. I want to know if any cell companies are set up to allow parents to limit who can call and text in and out? If not, that needs to happen for the older kids, but not responsibly enough to have unlimited access to calls from anyone.

  • Sick Oscar...water got too hot....please help...?

    Something malfunctioned with a tank heater in our 55 gallon tank with two large Oscars in it (those were the only two fish). I'm feeling guilty because I didn't notice it until the water started turning green (which happened very rapidly). My husband immediately took the fish out and put them in another 55 gallon tank we have some Cichlids in until we get the original tank in proper order... The smaller Oscar is really sick. We don't know how sick he was before we moved him... SO we don't know if the tank water getting too hot hurt him, or if he has something else wrong with him. He is laying around on the bottom of the tank. His color is just about gone and he looks pasty. There are no signs of ick or any skin problems other than the loss of his color and his skin looking dehydrated for lack of a better word. I read lots of other answers here and saw someone talking about Pop Eye and some other sickness's. I need help for this fish quick, and don't know where to start.

  • What are Gold's Gym membership fees?

    We have an appointment Friday to go hear their salespitch. I want to go in eyes wide open and some knowledge of their best offers before I commit to a membership. The guy wouldn't give me any prices over the phone, but said that they would wave the sign-up fees. We're in Martinsburg, WV if that makes any difference. I think they charge per person? My hubbys company is paying his membership, so that can be a year membership...however, for me and our 4 kids we'll have to pay it out monthly. Any suggestions on negotiations with them? (our kids are 17, 14, 12, and 9) I'm guessing only our 17 year old will want to work out. Thanks for any tips.

  • How can I find a Yorkie puppy breeder in Pennsylvania area? I've looked online till I can't see straight!

    Don't send me hate mail....but I've visited so many shelters and can't find a small puppy or adult dog and I've looked at so many rescue groups charging breeder prices for dogs that THEY got from the shelters which makes me mad because I can't network like they can...If I'm going to pay breeder prices, then I want a puppy from a breeder. I'm looking in PA because someone told me that it's a haven for puppy breeders. I'm in WV and will drive. I want a female Yorkie (not to breed, I have a 9lb Shih Tzu female who is fixed and want another small dog) If anyone knows someone, please feel free to contact me privately. If you have any suggestions, please let me know. I don't care if the dog has papers, is perfect or what...but I can't go over $350 and would prefer a half breed or one without papers for cheaper. I have a great home for a dog, but am not going to pay $600 for a dog. I'll be patient till the right one comes along! Thanks!

  • Can I have Zune and iTunes software on the same computer successfully? any suggestions?

    I am not all that computer literate. I'm trying! I made the mistake of buying on kid a Zune last year and another got an iPod for Christmas. I'm loading the Zune on my computer and already have iTunes. I'm hoping that they will work individually and not mess with each others systems. I appreciate any helpful advice or tips. Thanks!

  • I need to make a spiral lampshade, any ideas? Or where to buy just the shade?

    I've looked on ebay and a few other sites. I need to replace a shade for a lamp that takes a spiral shade. The ones that were so very popular just a couple of years ago and were showing up everywhere. It's a circle at the top attached to the lamp with fabric in a V-shape hanging down...usually with a tassel at the bottom. I have an idea of how to make one, but not sure about it...especially attaching it safely to the lamp base. If I could buy just the shade, I'd prefer that. Thanks!

I want to put album skins onto old songs I have that the Ipod store doesn't recognize.

  • what is the tool that an esthetician uses to do the extractions with?

    I went for a facial, and I don't know why I didn't ask, but what are the tools they use for extractions? Can I buy them? I did buy a round blackhead remover, but I can't imagine that would be the same thing. What the esthetician used felt like a needle and it worked great, unlike that cheap thing I bought.

  • Can an interest rate, once "locked in" be changed (lowered)?

    We are in the first stages of getting an FHA mortgage and our broker with Prosperity Mortgage is saying that she can't lower our rate to reflect todays lower interest rates because she had "locked in" the rates last week. Not sure if I trust her and have been told that they are like used car salesmen! I'm starting to believe it.

  • Whats your favorite brand/manufacturer of laminate floor and why?

    Shopping around for laminate floors and it's very confusing. Do I buy cheap and suffer later? Is there an inexpensive laminate floor solution that is good quality? Two of my relatives put in the brand from Costco and they love it, but I wonder how long it will hold up.
