We did have to move the shelves around a bit, into the two uppermost slots. It was actually easier to fit the gallon jug into the new fridge vs. other mini-fridges, because there's nothing poking out from the door, and you don't lose any space to a freezer compartment. Other times we've had to...

My husband and I had a two night stay at the Yacht Club last week. We reserved a garden view and I requested upper floor on the online check-in (hoping for a renovated room); I didn't feel like calling in a request for a king bed for our short stay. We got room 4098, which had two queens, a...

Google has a ton of odd stuff labeled around that area. I just did a search for "disney world" at http://maps.google.com/ and noticed that along with Disney's Persian Resort, there's a marker for Disney's Asian Resort over at the Grand Floridian. There's also markers for the swan boats, If You...

I stayed in a BCV studio in October and used the free laundry. I had to ask at the front desk to find it - I can't remember if it was on the second floor or the fourth floor but it was near the main elevators. I'm pretty sure the room had two washers and two dryers.

I sent you an email message. I'm not sure if the use year would work with the timeframe I'm looking at (late October 2010).

Sent you a PM.

I had the same thing happen a couple weeks ago - electric dryer, push the start button and nothing happens. I looked up information for my dryer online and figured out how to open it up. There's really not much going on in an electric dryer - there's a motor that turns the drum, the heater, and...

I have a really nice map that I downloaded from somewhere (had it on my computer for a while now). I can't find the original link (the map says www.disneyworld.ca) so I uploaded the file I have: http://www.whpress.com/wdwmap.pdf Note that it's a moderately large PDF (about 1 MB).

This Snopes article (http://www.snopes.com/business/redeem/pulltabs.asp) discusses the history of the pull-tab myth. The upshot is that the charities simply get the scrap aluminum value of the tabs which is pretty much nothing - the article says about $427 per million tabs collected. It would be...

This article (http://www.slate.com/id/2166475) is from a year ago but it explains why you won't save any money using the forever stamps. Basically, increases in stamp cost will never be more than inflation so buying stamps at 41 cents today is more expensive than the cost of the stamps in the...

If you find a used copy but it's scratched (which might mean you can get it cheap), you can get a brand new replacement from Disney for $6.95 (http://disney.go.com/disneyvideos/dvdsupport/faq.html). You will need the original packaging which sometimes the discs from Gamestop don't come with. I...

You can play GameBoy Advance games on the Nintendo DS without needing any kind of adapter. You cannot play older GameBoy games on the DS. For the Gamecube, there's the GameBoy Player. It lets you play GameBoy, GameBoy Color, and GameBoy Advance games on your Gamecube. You can't play DS games...

Maybe I'm missing something but the plural of leaf is leaves. :confused:

You're right! They changed the rules for 2007 (www.irs.gov/publications/p553/ch01.html#d0e1626). Very cool on the increased contribution amount. The whole eligiblility for past months assuming you have the same plan for the next year is kind of odd (it wouldn't be the tax code if it weren't :))...

And if we're talking about multiple theives and their guns, it would be "The theives' guns were concealed." For an easy to remember rule, never use an apostrophe when pluralizing a word. (There are a few contrary cases but not many.) Here (www.angryflower.com/bobsqu.gif) is a very cranky...

Free4Life11, I'm assuming you have individual coverage (the required deductible is higher for family coverage). Also, the maximum you can contribute is limited to the lesser of your deductible or $2850, prorated for the number of months that you are covered by a high-deductible insurance policy...

I went through the process of creating a budget for the first time a few months ago so I'll share what I did. First, I sat down and made a list of all the things we spend money on in the sparklemint household; it was easy for the monthly bills but I had to think a bit to remember the occasional...

Most of the things labeled as "flaming" on the DIS boards wouldn't even get a second look on other boards I've been on (or Usenet for that matter). So I'd say that you haven't been flamed. It can't really be flaming unless someone has called into question your intelligence, heritage, and sexual...

One thing to keep in mind about the Commerce Department's savings rate is that it is for all Americans - including retired people. According to an article at Bankrate (can't post the URL since I don't have enough posts yet :teeth: ), the savings rate among working Americans is 6 percent...
