    My grandmother had a Pekingese, later a Shi-Tzu, both were terrified of fireworks. My black lab just snoozes through it all :) Such low maintenance.

    What Pleases You?

    N Nice to know, of course way to late now. My racks are always sticky and a pain to move in and out, didn't know the cleaning caused it. It's 35 years old, so might shop for a new one and get rid of the old one. Being extremely lazy. I'd bring in my BBQ grates and put them in during the...

    Yes, that's why mine has a locking mechanism. You can't open it while it's running, temp is so high. I'll have to start using the baking pan solution, way to obvious. :eek:

    Yeah, I used a spray years ago in an apartment. Disgusting. I had to wipe it out with damp cloths 4-5 times before I finally got rid of the film it left on everything. I'll try your solution. Self cleaning ovens are wonderful, just a tablespoon of ash to wipe up. I'm going to try searching for...

    What Pleases You?

    Self cleaning oven, but the knob broke and I can't find a replacement anywhere in this country. You have to push it in, lock the oven and set the timer, but missing the main knob, no way to do it. Back to manual cleaning rather than just wiping out some ash :(

    What Pleases You?

    The local convenience store, owned by a Punjabi family. They're very nice but hard to understand when speaking. They ordered my favorite beer just for me. Actually cheaper than the local Safeway so I get a lot of the basics from them.

    What Pleases You?

    Never knew they were called "leaf" antennas. Mine faced east, they said the best reception would be if it faced south, but I didn't want 60 feet of dual coax running through the house, hanging over doors, etc. so gave up. I've been with Dish for years, great service, but this attempt bombed...

    What Pleases You?

    Dish Network offered an over the air option last year, I would save $20 a month. I think they knew it sucked, but they installed it anyway. Had them back two days later to restore things to the way they were. Worked for about three hours and died. They just gave me all the leftover equipment...

    I've never seen it actually enforced, except maybe a security guard at the bus station. I think people are polite, decent and understand the rules.

    What Pleases You?

    Not bad, but no Bourbon or Cigars. A good Ale, but nothing with smoke, I literally will get sick. 25 foot limit around public buildings here and thankfully all smoking inside is banned. I'll get a breath of fresh air, hold it and walk through the smokers. :D What pleases me is HTF. Been here...

    What Pleases You?

    Having a wonderful black lab. She never leaves me. Sleeps with me (major bed hog). If I'm watching TV she's on a chair next to me. So comforting to have a buddy like her. :dancing-banana-04:

    What Pleases You?

    I experience that a lot. Sometimes i'd swear I just breathe on my laptop and it does what it wants to do. Thank goodness for "control z", which usually recovers lost text. On the positive side, people who stop for me when crossing a street. Guess I live in a nice city where people care about...
