Other - Home & Garden - September 2007

I'm moving within the next 2 months to South Carolina and have been focusing on Hilton Head. Today I thought to just scope out the area of Myrtle Beach online and I realized how much cheaper it is... Does that reflect the quality of the area?? I'm young, so I don't mind if it's more fast paced, etc. But I do want to be living in a NICE area. Any input would be helpful, since I've never been to either area. Thanks so much!

I always try to keep my bedroom tidy but I'm on tour at the moment and whenever I come home I dump a bag on my bedroom floor, and any letters and books, clothes, accessories and general bits of paper, end up all over my dressing table, and floor (because I'll lay it all out on my bed with the intention of sorting it then shove it all on my floor for sleep). There MUST be a system to avoid getting a build-up of crap and I know the easy solution is to tidy as I go but whenever I'm at home it's only for a few days before I'm off touring again and I'd rather not spend my time hanging clothes and filing!
Help!

Whenever we watch a British programme, we've noticed that the door locks seem to be about shoulder height, while here in Canada, the locks are just above the door handle (which is about waist high).

What's the reason for the height?

Thanks to everyone who answers:)

i recall planting a carrot top in my garden before and it sprang roots and started to grow, but died a little later when some worms started to eat the decaying portion under the ground.

but would it work? i.e. would they grow into more carrots

I can possibly get some for free. But it's been sitting in a tank in a basement for a decade. Is it still good, or should I pass on the opportunity to save $600? FYI, we have a 50 year old Burnham Boiler, which we use for heat and domestic hot water.
P.S. I have been told that diesel fuel can be substituted for #2 in a pinch, as they are essentially the same. So if any one knows about diesel fuel, that information may be useful.

My wife just moved into a new apartment and there are mice. We never dealt with mice before.

They are too smart for traps; they don't work.

I figured the mice would be scared if they picked up the scent of a larger animal in the house.

So I put some of my feces in the corner behind the refrigerator.

My wife smelled it, moved the fridge and saw what I did.

Needless to say, she didn't agree with my theory.

How can I explain this theory to her?

Have you moved into a house and discovered anything valuable or left behind.

It's funny on those movie shows that show old homes, people discover photos, irons, or a few pieces of old money, but don't they ever show if a resident found gold/expensive jewelry, or really valuable things, but perhaps don't want it publicized? Wondering?

I've done the news paper, the kindling, fire lighters, set it going lovely, put the coal on and it still doesn't work. It works for a bit, but not what you'd call a long lasting flame for the evening. It's an open fire, as aposed to the glass shut door type. Maybe I need wood?
