Blinds are usually hung at the top of a window and then pulled down. However I want a bling which rises so that sometimes I can have the top of the window open (to let in light) but the bottom obscured (for privacy). But I cannot find such a thing anywhere. Do they exist?

There's a plate in my fridge filled with some viscous goo and anything i put into it dissolves in a few minutes! it doesn't really have a smell and i don't want to touch it more than i have to and it seems to be moving around at night because it is never in the same place in the morning. i hope it grows more because this thing strips paint, removes grease and stuck on stains like they were nothing! i could make a lot of money selling this at my local mom & pop store! this stuff is simply astonishing! but should i be worried? i yelled and taunted it once and it started popping and hissing, and more grew from out of nowhere and it was going at a decent rate too... do you think i need to find some scientists?

My daughter had a sausage egg biscuit for breakfast and I noticed a stain on her shirt as she was leaving for Pre-school. I grabbed our new Tide pen and used that on it but it was definitely still there when she came home. It has not been laundered. Is there anything I can do to save this new sweet shirt!! Thank you in advance!!

Any idea where it might have been made, or what it's worth? How would you describe it if you had to sell it in a classified ad?

Is there a way to tell if a heat tape is thermostatically controlled by looking at it. Should it be labeled as such. I had heat tape installed on my copper pipes last year and specified I wanted thermostatically controlled heat tape. I am not sure if it is or not and wanted to have it put on new pex pipes. Someone told me that if it were thermostatically controlled, it would have a dial near the plug. I'm confused. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks

There is a huge tree that grows along the property line between our properties. The neighbor insists it is his, but the damn thing leans into my yard, and sheds in my yard three times a year. I hate the tree. He gets no leaves, but it provides shade for him. I want to cut it down. Should I just go ahead and do it??
