I am in wired hell, everytime I turn on the breaker it blows when I flip on the switch to one of the lights, not tough, however, at the same time when the breaker is on so is the light. This leaves me to assume that the light switch just acts as a means to blow the breaker. what's going on?!

We realized that a plant that we have, was not draining properly. It is some sort of tree that my wife has had for 20 years. About 3-4 days ago she noticed alot of leaves had fallen off and yesterday she moved it and discovered that it was full of water. A cork pad we had it on had swelled and plugged the drainhole. We removed the pad and water drained out for a few hours. What should we do next? The tree does have alot of new growth and untll very recently it was very healthy.

We live in the Mid-West if that makes a difference. We are growing pretty much a wide variety and it is a fairly large garden. We also have to pay for our water, so I don't want to over water and waste. With living in the mid-west we also have clay soil which does not dry out as quickly as sandy soils do. So can anyone give me a really GOOD AND HONEST ballpark figure? Thanks!

I don't smoke a lot, so I keep my cigs in the frig to keep them from getting stale. My uncle says that doing this causes the cigarettes t o absorb odors, like baking soda, so I shouldn't do that. Is that true?

Please someone tell me. I lived in Texas and was using a new washer. Everything worked great. I then moved to CA and took washer with me. The washed clothes STUNK like a fungus was in there. I was doing everything the same as in Texas. I ended up moving back to Texas and now using the same washer, everything is perfect again. I also know that the contractor who built the CA house is not so honest. My husband thinks the washer was hooked up to sewer water or something like that. Any ideas? Thank you!

It seems to need to be filled with water though I don't know where.

The pipes that come from it, are they supposed to go outside and how without letting in the outside air?

Is there an internet site where I could find the manual?

Well, hes 19 and hes ok but we were in a bamboo garden and he picked up a dead one and started trying to break it. Somehow he got hurt on his finger and elbow. It looks like a bunch of tiny fine little splinters and it made the area welp up like a bee sting. Again, hes ok and DONT SEND ME TREATMENTS. I was just wondering if anyone has ever heard of this.

Hi! I am looking at buying an "as is" house, and in the realtor's photos there is duct tape forming a cross over the kitchen and restroom sink, and the toilet lid is duct taped shut. The kitchen and bath has been recently remodeled, and the home is on a septic/well system. What are potential reasons for duct tape on the sinks?
THANK YOU!
I will choose a best answer!

I've got the design down, but as far as the foundation goes, I'm not sure if I should build the porch on top of a slab or if it'd be ok just on the leveled ground.
