Would it affect how much you were approved for?

Guess I'm on a Gilligan's Island kick today. Or what kind of cookie would you like to see with a Gilligan's Island theme?

I have lived here for 7 months but don't really feel like I know enough to just write a lot.

Read in the Atlanta Journal Constitution about week ago (March 7) online that the U.S. Post Office is letting a new online company GovDeals.com, who put in a winning bid somewhere, to soon auction off lost articles that ended up in the Mail Recovery Center. That means, although it could help the post office start operating in the black, or at least more efficiently, that if you lose something you sent in the mail, you would probably now have to locate, bid, and buy your own property back. So I'm trying to decide, 6 months later, how long to keep trying to locate some irreplaceable missing books, including yearbooks, which were probably sold in an auction around December in a book lot to an unknown buyer or buyers in Georgia (and am waiting for insurance claim to be paid, but would still like those yearbooks back).

Shipped 18 boxes of books to New Mexico from Utah last August, and 3 boxes of books were lost in the mail. After filling out paperwork and detailed descriptions and forwarding them to the lost mail department in Atlanta, Georgia, and waiting 4 months, as well as trying to contact them directly, I decided to just put in a claim for the insurance after finally getting ahold of someone live, who said, "Oh, we wouldn't have anything from back in August." But because the books included irreplaceable high school yearbooks, I am thinking if they weren't recycled, isn't there a way to locate them somehow? What might be the best place(s) to advertise such a thing? Would a possible reward of $50 or $100 be enough of an incentive?

The luggage racks I am looking at all seem to be attached to vehicles with 4 doors. But I have a 2-door Honda Civic. How do I go about measuring for a rack and will one even work on a car with 2 doors? This is my first time trying to pack this way.

I am trying to figure out what kind of luggage rack would fit on top if a car has two doors. It's a 2005 Honda Civic. I have a soft-cover cargo carrier.

Would it be enough if a U.S. Senator testified on behalf of it? On regular TV (not cable)?

Would it be enough if 3 major editors in newspapers in 3 different states or countries wrote about it?

Would it be enough if something between 30 and 300 people testified on behalf of it, with photos of the event?

What about if a celebrity of some kind, over the age of 50, were to testify on behalf of it?

Just curious.

Just curious. Does it go back centuries or is it more 20th Century?

Just curious.

This is not homework, it's just for a little coloring book to give to children. I always second-guess my own Spanish translations so it's nice to hear from others, thanks.

Let's say you had $300 to spend in a week (housing and transportation already taken care of). What would you do on that kind of budget?

Plain glazed Krispy Kremes. Also, cherry frosted. But once in a while, it's gotta be chocolate.

Personally, I love these three: the Cornish pixie riding a dragon skeleton like a rider on a bucking bronc to crash to the floor with a "Yee haw!" in Harry Potter 2, and the scene at the beginning of Harry Potter 3 when Harry's aunt gets inflated into a huge balloon (maybe the funniest scene I've watched in years), and also Harry riding Buckbeak over Hogwarts and over the water in Harry Potter 3. Also, they did a fantastic job with the music in those 3 scenes. Now it's your turn!

This is a follow-up to the last question I asked here, but I added a word, "faced" to what the last one was. I'm trying to get this to come out closer to the meaning of the poem.

I need it for the title of a poem. Does "tsuki bihaku" work since I am comparing the moon to a geisha face? I forget which order adjectives go in since it's been about 8 years since I took a basic Japanese class.

Just curious as to your opinion. Say, for example, the previous owner has a tendency to read the Bible a lot, or to put in long hours at work, could that atmosphere affect the mentality of the next home owner? This is sort of a spiritual and psychological question at the same time.
