I have a 3-way light switch in my home. Last night I turned it on and heard a crackling noise. I smelled hot wires , so I shut the switch off. I'm very afraid that this may start a fire in my home. Any ideas as to what's causing this and how can I fix it?

just wanted to know, which do u think is better? pros and cons of each in ur opinion.
cos i used to use pentium and found that AMD was just as good as cheaper without sacrificing preformance, my AMD xp3k+ processor is just as good as most single core prosessors still sold in ireland and it was only the budget one, whereas my dads new pentium cooks itself (not litrally of course but i do get warnings from the temprature moniter software) wen put to full power and is only 200mhz faster

I have a dresser with mirror and two nightstands. Once upon a time, the dresser was a shiny dark wood, and the nightstands were a duller medium wood. They were painted black a few years ago. Can I remove the paint and make them look like wood again, but this time the same wood?

The furniture is about 50 years old and still sturdy. I'm not sure if it's solid real wood, or if it has a veneer or anything.

I hear mice in my attic and walls, where my cats can't get to them...if I put out rat poison will it hurt my cats if they happen to catch one that has eaten the poison? If it will hurt my cats, does anyone have any suggestions for eliminating the mice other than traps...my attic is not that easily accesible.

First off christians please dun interupt this and flag down every individual with bible BS this question is in no way directed toward you or YOUR views on the matter.(quite honestly I have seen enough gay bashin BS answers and questions tonight) Now I am not gay but I do think gays should have the right to get married WITH PREVISIONS! First off in the constitution of the united states of america Matters of religion and church shall remain seperate and equil, The goverment shall not hender, select, or elect one religion over another and shall therein show complete secular beliefs. First off if you want a marrage the goverment CAN NOT deny you that right as marrage is a RELIGIOUS RIGHT and not a GOVERMENT OR STATE RIGHT. So therein They have no choice legally without breaking the constitution but to give u a marrage certificate. Now if u want a marrage in a church I am sorry but the goverment can not force a church to abbide but you have several options open, pagan marrages, -Wait>>

We have been together for 11 years now and we have one child For the past year ide say things that I nver really noticed before are starting to piss me off. We both work 40 hours a week and have a household to keep up. I am really getting fed up with the fact that he doesnt help clean ANYTHING! unless I ask, which by the way i hate doing. If you see it needs to be cleaned damnit clean it. He has recently started going to bed at very late hours , 1 or 2 in the morning. Im not saying that he has to be in bed with me every night, but I feel its important to be in bed with your significant other at least 3 times a week. When does he expect us to have sex??? Im contemplating leaving him or at least taking some time apart. Im not happy anymore and when I express how I feel, he says its just money problems or that i stress too much. Well you know what hes right! I stress for both of us, If he gave half a **** about stuff I wouldnt be holding the bricks on my shoulders.
Not sure what to do

gatesfam@swbell.net, I don't appreciate the sarcasm mate. I am asking a serious question, but my text would not fit into the box. I would like to know who's land the people of Israel are taking and claiming as their own, or is this all just a common anti-american belief?
