    Not so sure we made the best decision...

    Did you install a trailer brake controller in the van yet? I believe dodge requires trailer brakes over 1k lbs.

    Internet Providers

    Try complaining on their Face book page. With Comcast, it elevates the case to some one that can actually do something.

    Wet basement - tips or advice?

    Is the concrete slab in cracked or if you can't see all of the slab, is the floor unlevel? This could indicate the foundation has shifted causing the brick work to crack, thus letting water in.

    New Twist on a 5th Vessel

    As long as the dock can handle the draft and beam, the stern can extend past the end of the dock. I don't see DCL filling or adding new ships with out expanding to different itineraries. So new home ports or destinations would be needed.

    Wet basement - tips or advice?

    It sounds like you need to figure out why/ how the water is getting in. Also, the insulation and the back of the drywall is developing mold as we speak. You realy need to work on preventing water from getting into the house. Does the outside the ground should slope away from the house. Is the...

    "How's my driving? Call 1-XXX-XXX-XXXX"

    I have called as well, but I even call the company to report excellent driving. Example: avoiding accidents caused by stupid car drivers. Or to report that the accident happened because the car swerved in between the truck and the trailer and the driver is not at fault. (Think National Lampoons...

    New Twist on a 5th Vessel

    I am thinking long term, 5-10years out. Also the longer and shorter ships would be more stable. It would be interesting for DCL to have normal trans Atlantic cruises. The current ones are just for repositioning the fleet. I am also assuming that Cast Away Cay was built to handle the new...

    Cutting heating/hot water costs UPDATE- FOUND GAS LEAK!

    Check your attic insulation and add another layer running 90deg from the existing direction.

    New Twist on a 5th Vessel

    One thing to keep in mind, the longer the hull of displacement ships the faster it can go for a given amount of drag. So, if DCL wants to go to places farther away in less time, the ships will get bigger to save on fuel. I suspect the new ships will meet the New Panamax sizes. Max ship size to...

    Anyone had to buy new Central air/heat pump

    Just to reinforce Ginny Favers post, the technician can make or break the instillation.

    Two new Disney Cruise Line ships could be coming in 2015 & 2016

    For the NY/Baltimore to FL and the return route to avoid taxes, it would have to stop at 2 foreign ports. But it would not be that hard to stop at Castaway Cay and some other Bahamas Island. I know I would enjoy not having to start my vacation with a body cavity search.

    2 1/2 Yearl Olds Going Through Security...talk me through it.

    When we went with my 18month old, he walked thru by his self. Grandma went first and I told him to go to grandma. With so much going on at security, he didn't even know what was going on and we made it into a game. If you keep calm and relaxed, he will be calm and relaxed. It is the monkey...

    Looking forward to camping season!!

    It is a tail as old as time. My wife was 6months along and was really having a craving for smores. She likes her marshmallows toasted but with burned edges. So she preceded to toast hers then towards the end when the marshmallow is really hot and sticky he quickly runs it thru the flames and...

    Update: Disney lobbies for ticket law changes - Bill Passed

    Well if you bought the tickets thru one of the ticket resellers/ scalpers like Stubhub then the tickets would be verified. I think Disney is not seeing the big picture. If ticket sales could only happen at the ticket office, and no 3rd party sales period, then some of this might go away. Look...

    Update: Disney lobbies for ticket law changes - Bill Passed

    Actually this is a good thing, because I would only be paying the Maryland taxes and not the FL taxes. (about 1/2 of FL)

    Update: Disney lobbies for ticket law changes - Bill Passed

    I don't have anything at my desk right now to verify but I believe the terminology is "Not Labled for Individual sale." This is in relation to ingredients and nutrition labeling. As long as the Twinkies are labeled, nothing is stopping me from reselling them.

    Update: Disney lobbies for ticket law changes - Bill Passed

    Maryland is going after taxes for any purchase where the transaction is taking place inside Maryland. Example: I book a a 1 week stay at POFQ from my computer at home in MD. Maryland wants to collect the taxes on the stay because the purchase happened in Maryland.

    Update: Disney lobbies for ticket law changes - Bill Passed

    I am curios about internet ticket sales. Part of the premis of the recent federal/ state sales tax laws is that the purchase happens as the location of the purchaser. Example: I am on a computer in Maryland and purchase WDW tickets. Maryland deemed the purchase happened in Maryland and therefor...
