My room is so blah, and I can't paint it because next year i get the basement. But for now, i want my room to be cool! I used to have tons of posters, but i didn't like that. I have a bulliten board with pics of my friends, and i have a desk, a book shelf, two closets, a tv, dresser, and bunk bed. oh, and there's a window in my room. anything i could do to those areas or something? i've got a few windchimes and a bamboo plant, also. but basically, i don't really want to spend money!

It can not only be good for the environment ~t can be good for the mind, it can be a "therapeutic" motion.

Some people are against it because of the way it dries certain garments, others complain about the birds.... others who leave their clothes out over night run into other problems with the settling dew. I personally like to hang clothes out mainly for the environmental reason....even if half the nations power wasn't being generated in "un-environmentally-safe ways"(coal etc), I think I would still like to hange the clothes out when I had the chance, rather than spin the dryer.

I have a Charbroil Gas grill and the tank ran empty. Hooked up a new tank within 5 minutes and couldn't hear any gas flow and couldn't light the grill. Checked all of the connections and used soapy water to check for hose leaks...everything appears normal. I thought it might be the tank so I got another one and the problem still existed. Is there anything else I can do? Thanks for all of your help!

When getting a roof done and the tar paper is put down correctly and it ends up raining before the shingles are put down. Can water leak through the tar paper?
