Jennifer,
Unless you can identify the source of the mosquitos and
eliminate that problem you might just as well invite them to
the house warming because they are going to be around for a
while.
I would be particularly leery of both Mosquitos because of
West Nile virus concerns and their natural
I don't know about a combo unit to hang on the wall, but I recently purchased a
little flat screen television that can be used for tv or computer monitor. It
is light enough to carry in one hand, can be set on the stand that came with it
or hung on a wall. It has jacks for connecting other
OK,
Thanks.
I am trying to get my hands on one of the Oregon Scientific ones but can't
order it from Amazon.com and they don't carry it on Amazon.ca and in addition
to the price there is customs. I am trying to chase one down on Ebay but so far
they aren't any cheaper than Amazon and when you
That is a good point!
Just plug the VCR or DVD into a decent boom box with remotes.
I'll think about that. I think I even have a unit which doesn't play tape or
DVD for some reason but should receive television signals well enough.

Do you have access to Barnes n Noble up there? I know they offer it online for
$53.plus, and less if you join their membership.
Does Canada add much for customs?

Trouble with customs is that you never know. I suppose there is a way to
estimate, there is a Web site with classifications of equipment but it depends
if the customs agent classifies say as cooking equipment, electronic device,
maybe scientific or calibration equipment, I am making this up
If you only have to remove 1/64 of an inch, use sandpaper with a sanding block.
It shouldn't take to long and you will have a nicer looking job.

robert,
I think you're likely to damage the blade more than the door.
get a sanding block, hand type, and some coarse paper and just
do it by hand.
Much better controll and less danger of broken blades flying about.

How about you spend a few dollars on some really coarse aggressive sand paper,
40 grit or 60 grit and a good block. I have a rather nice plastic one here with
a handle on it about 8 by 3 inches. You could clamp a straight edge to gauge
your progress and have at it until you get close then go to
There are course files made to use on wood. They are called wood rasps.

So, why do people paint over brick? Isn't one of the good things about brick
that you do not have to paint it? I don't mean inside like on fireplace
bricks, that I can understand for the purposes of decorating even if I would
not do it myself.
Has anyone here ever done this? Is there a
Mike,
Thanks for your thoughts on this. As it happens, I agree with you.
Unfortunately, our baby is going to be having a cochlear
implant put in very soon. Once that is turned on he will need to see his
audiologist and speech therapist a couple of times a week or more for several
weeks.
a draw knife is a really handy old fashioned hand tool that is really
inexpensive and could do this job very well. it looks like a letter u,
with handles on the uprights and a blade along the trough.
you pull the handles towards you. i think noah used it to make the ark.

Dear Robert and list members:
I bought a low-end powered hand planer from Black and Decker for less than
fifty bucks, and it quickly became my tool of choice when trimming the edge of
any lumber or wooden doors. If you buy one, I would suggest buying a
two-by-four for practicing. You
That makes perfect sense and I agree.
As for growing things in the yard, there are many applications that will enrich
the ground so you can plant things so maybe it will work out for you guys, good

Thank you all for your good ideas.
I borrowed a rasp from my neighbor and just filed on the top of the door I
did not take it off the hinges so I need to vacuum. Now the problem is that
the door will not stay closed because the striker plate is too low so I will
need to take care of that. I think
I just received two of these devices from the brailleSuperstore.com. They are
priced at under 13 bucks U.S. and they ship Articles for the Blind. They are
listed differently on Ebay. They are located in Abbotsford British Columbia.
Anyway, I thought some of you might be interested. The first
