I'm a college student, and when I'm not in college I bring all my stuff back home. I literally have years and years worth of clutter that I need to sort through. It literally looks like a tornado went through there. I can barely walk through my room. I don't know how it got so bad! You'd of thought someone had broken into the house by the way my room looks! I guess I just let it build up, and even though I have a storage facility, I don't know how to even start dealing with all the junk.

Ok so this is the problem: Every year we put up christmas lights outside and plug them into a GFCI, which trips every time it rains or snows, and the lights do not work. Every year we tape all connections and make sure all boxes are covered, plastic covers...Why does this keep happening?? Also suppose I was to plug the lights into the front room of my house, with no GFCI, how great is the risk of getting electricuted? In other house we have done with out one and nobody has ever gotten electricuted...
Other INFO: GFCI replace august 07 by electrician 15 amp circuit, and we have about 12 amps of lights...

How do you tell if the floors are hardwood, or, laminate? We just bought a place and are not sure. We cannot contact the seller, so, please do not suggest that. (he has made himself unavailable since we closed).

Also, is the care & cleaning of laminate different from hardwood? If so, how do you clean laminate?

I'm using 12 foot pt 6x6's as the vertical supports for a footbridge over a stream and because of the slope of the ground, one of the supports has come up about 3 feet short of requirement.

The 6x6 in question fully supports the deck portion of the bridge, but only extends about 30 inches above the deck level. I want to extend the 6x6 by another 48 inches to that it will in turn support an angled roof, kind of covered bridge style.

Backing out the 6x6 at this point would be a real pain in the butt. Could I use a dowel or large screw embeded in the existing 6x6 and then screw into the new 6x6?

Thanks for any idea's.

The entire space between the liner and the bath is filled with water and it is starting to pull away from the wall on two sides. We are going to be redoing the bathroom within 2 months, but in the meantime how can we get the water out and still use the bathtub?
