I have sorted and stacked all (ALL) the clothes in our house, and since we're at the change of seasons, EVERYTHING (almost) needs washing. I have about 30 loads total including linens (there are 6 of us)
Our Laundromat has
1. Regular machines for $1.75
2. 3 load machines for $2.50
3. Super big 6 load machines for $5.25

I have never used the giant machines...do they clean well? Will they tear up my clothes? How much soap should I use? Liquid or powder?
I need to buy the detergent, since our washer at home takes only HE...can I get cheap liquid, or do I have to buy Tide?
I just want this laundry DONE. If I do it at home, it will take DAYS (a little over an hour a load in my machine at home in a VERY hot 2nd floor laundry room)
So...whadaya think?

My dog has taken a liking to peeing in one area of the back yard by the door. Since I discovered this, I have stopped her from going there. However now I notice that there is a sour smell of dog pee in that area especially on hot humid days. Does anyone have a simple solution that I can make and spray in that area to get rid of the smell?

I was out hanging the laundry up on the line and my garden gnomes were getting mad at me, trying to pick fights. Stupid things. All they do is try to look up my skirts anyway. Sick perverts. Anyway, they were arguing about these purple monsters that are running around my backyard. I told the gnomes that I had nothing to do with it and that they are not doing anything wrong blah blah blah. They kept arguing with me. I got mad, stormed off into the house and slammed the door while I chugged back some more Captain Morgan.

Do your garden gnomes pick fights with you too?

1) Should the government tell a church what to do or say?
If you say that as long as the church follows the law of government, government should not dictate what the church says or teaches - then consider that slavery was once the law.

2) Should the church stand against what is wrong, going against the government? (the catholic church has taken much criticism about not speaking up agianst Hitler).

3) If something is true, is it wrong to say? (don't take the easy escape out with "who decides what is wrong" or "your wrong may not be my wrong" - we all know basic right & wrong i.e. murder, stealing etc).

Serious answers only please because I have seen a lot of people dancing around the issues on other questions today & I really want to hear what your view is. Thank you.

We found out a neighbor on our street was arrested for drugs. We went to the Police Dept. but they won't release the address or name. How do I find out which neighbor it was? We live in CA.

Is there any reason why this would keep happening? The chain can't be too long. I had to stop and put it back on track like 7 times. Time for a new bicycle or can this bike be saved?

The last few months I've heard nothing but great things about the iPhone... unfortunately I also heard nothing bad about MacBook Pro and I bought one which turned out to be a complete pile of sh!t -- we're talking absolutely ZERO ability to play games for $2500. Is the iPhone worth my $$ or just another scam?

I work as a Healthcare assistant at my local hospital. I have known an old lady for quite some time. she has been in hospital for about 6 months. We were quite close and last Tuesday she told me that she wouldn't be here for much longer. She thanked me for everything I had done and told me she would keep in touch.I thought she meant she was going home. Well yesterday I went to work and one of the doctors told me she had died. I was freaked out that she knew she was dying and also upset that she had gone. She left me a note saying she would contact me if she could through a medium and look after me. She was a big believer in this as I am. I am booked to see Colin Fry soon and am scared now. I feel spooked by the whole thing and couldn't sleep last night. Please help.

She is a healthy looking girl at 5'6 and 3/4's (just went to doc), and she weighs in at 140. Her father is a big, well built man, and she inherited that apparent 'german gene'. She is constantly asking me if she is fat, and then dissagreeing when I tell her no. Shes only 13!
She won't wear things that look great on her because she is embarassed. I have even showed her that her BMI is fine!
Help!

I'm moving into an apartment by myself in September and would like a little companion. The pet policy is 25lbs and under. I'm not a fan of puffy coats and high maintenance dogs, I want a dog that will still run with me and get dirty.. like a real dog should! Any suggestions? I was thinking Miniature Australian Shepherd but they would probably be too active for apartment life, and also mayhaps a Miniature Pinscher.

What is all this about the trinity:
God the Father
God the Son
The Holy Spirit

So your saying God is a son, how can that be possible


You say Jesus is the son of god, how is that possible, if God can have a "son", than that makes him equal to us mere humans,

Can anyone explain this issues?

Am getting a Corsa Capitol which is the same as a Corsa Club but with a 'plus pack' included at a good price. The extras are alloys, paint, cruise control, fog lights, which dont come on the basic Club model. However, insurance companies dont have th option for the Corsa Capitol, but the dealers do advertise the car as a Capitol limited ed, so technically its not modified from original spec.... the limited ed car will be clearly worth more than the base model with these extras.. i just dont want to be left out in the cold should the worst happen- *apologies for my ramble- its confusing!* pls help asap :)

I am a single mother and by following the worksheet could claim 6 as head of household, etc. However, my sister says this could cause me to get little refund or even have to pay at the end of the year. I would like to get a substantial refund, but also minimize the amount taken out of each paycheck. Any advice on what I should claim? Thanks!
