I am an industrial engineering graduate from Arizona State University. I worked in IT for several years, and now I am in supply chain for an electronic component distributor. I am an expert in Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint and Word, and other computer-related topics. I bought an old, quirky house a year ago so I have had lots of adventures in repairs and design. I just adopted a dachshund puppy so I will be learning how to take care of a dog for the first time. I've moved around the USA, so I know about different parts of the country, and I've also traveled to Japan on a study abroad program. I am interested in interior design, computers, dogs, real estate, DIY, travel, board games, Japan, Nintendo Wii, green living, business and education, music and TV, and when I'm in a good mood I'll answer questions about religion and relationships. Check out some of my articles and creative writing: http://www.helium.com/search/search?search_query=%22laura+lee+winger%22

1 AnswerPhoenix9 years agoWhat is the movie where a married woman is offered a huge sum of money to spend time with a man?
I don't remember much, but I believe a married woman, struggling with finances, is approached by a wealthy older man. I think he offers her a million dollars or some large sum of money to spend a few nights with him on a boat. She initially turns him down and her and her husband think about it, and she finally agrees. Anyone know the movie?

2 AnswersPhoenix1 decade agoDoes Memorex DKS7102 Disney Carriage Princess Karaoke System play CD+G's.?
The description of the item says it plays CD's, CD-R's and CD-RW's, and it says that it displays the lyrics on the screen, but it does not specify that it plays and recognizes CD+G's which are the typicaly karaoke CD format. Does anyone know if it plays the regular CD+G's? I am thinking about buying this for my niece for Christmas.
1 AnswerMusic & Music Players1 decade agoYahoo! Widgets - can someone create a 3-month calendar display for me?
I don't want to reinvent the wheel, and I like the standard calendar that comes with the starter kit on Yahoo! Widgets, but I would like it to display the month prior and the next month as well as the current month. I would still like to be able to scroll forward and back, but I want to see three months, not just one. Can anyone help me out?
1 AnswerOther - Yahoo Widgets1 decade agoDo you have one switch in your bedroom or two?
Growing up, I always had two light switches in my room, one for the light, one for a socket. I bought an old house, and all the rooms only have one switch! I guess if you have a light in the room, you don't really need a switch for a socket, but I'm still attached to the idea of having a second light switch.
How many switches do you have in your bedroom(s), and if you have more than one, what do you use the extra ones for?
7 AnswersDecorating & Remodeling1 decade agoOn my Kenmore Elite refrigerator, how do I get the grill off the front in order to move it on its wheels?
There's a front piece on the bottom, called the grill (I think), that prevents the fridge from moving. Once removed, it can be tipped on its wheels to move easily. I can't get the thing off and I feel like I'm going to snap it in half. I need to move it to run water to the ice dispenser. Any tips?

I have a rug design in mind for a tiled room, but I just can't find anything I like. Is it possible to get a plain-colored rug and dye it in patterns to make it look how I want?

3 AnswersPhotography1 decade agoIf you have a "Tall Tub" Dishwasher, do you have higher counter tops?
Or do you use the top surface of the dishwasher instead of the counter top?
For example, here is a Standard Tub height dishwasher:
http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet...
Here is a Tall Tub height dishwasher:
http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet...
Both say they are built in, but I measured my counter tops and the Tall Tub wouldn't fit underneath. So my question is if you got a tall tub dishwasher, do you have higher counter tops or is the top of your dishwasher flush with the counter?
2 AnswersDecorating & Remodeling1 decade agoWhat do you use the Internet for? Work? Shopping? Education?
I am mostly interested in what uses of the Internet are making people either smarter or wealthier, i.e. if you read about new technologies or take classes, or if you own a business on eBay or if you work exlcusively from home through the Internet. But I'm curious to see how many people use the Internet for all sorts of things.
List anything and everything. Do you take classes online? Do you download music and movies? Do you create and upload music and/or movies? Do you get paid for anything you do online? Do you sell on eBay? Do you work exclusively from home using the Internet? Did you find your pet online? Did you find your spouse online? What online games do you play? Do you use facebook, myspace, or other online communities? Do you edit Wikipedia? Do you download ebooks or audio books?
15 AnswersPolls & Surveys1 decade agoA question for EVERYONE: Do you know at least the basics of programming? What language(s)?
I am looking for an approximate statistic on how many computer users know at least the basics of programming. If anyone has a link to such a statistic, that would be awesome (and get a best answer).
But I just want to see how many of you know the basics of programming. More details would be helpful to, like what programming language, if you took a class, and why you learned it.
22 AnswersPolls & Surveys1 decade agoMy fridge broke. Is it okay if frozen packages like Lean Pockets and Stouffer's are re-frozen after thawing?
We just bought groceries last night, and then we realized the freezer wasn't really freezing anything. It's cool but not cold. Since we couldn't buy a new fridge last night, we will be buying one tonight. We can keep things in coolers with ice, but I just want to know if its worth it or if the food will be bad if it isn't kept frozen.
Only serious answers please!

3 AnswersEngineering1 decade agoDid they take away Mountain Dew Code Red at your Taco Bell?
They took it away from the one by my work and the one by my house. I don't want to go to Taco Bell anymore because it makes me sad that I can't get my favorite caffeine buzz there anymore.
