    Thread necro!
    If you could kick in the pants the person responsible for your problems, you wouldn't be able to sit for a month.

    Did you know that a 4 year student paying $20,000/year who finances their education graduates with over $103,000 in debt to start? But a student who works and pays cash and takes 6 years to graduate ends with $6,300 in their pocket! So much for "getting a head start by financing!"

    I hadn't thought about that. Thanks for reminder...before I decided to try it......

    I use bleach on lots of stuff........including my whites. Love the smell of clothes bleached.
