I am going to list quite a few knitting books on Ebay, and I thought I would check here to see if anyone was interested beforehand. I don't want to take the time to make a list of authors, titles, etc if there is no interest in them. Some of the books were expensive, some weren't. I am...

Food stuff is the one thing that is under control, however, the non-food stuff has, it seems, always been out of control! So far, I've "uncovered" 10 hair conditioners, 2 shampoos, 6 bar soaps (2 are being used to make my drawer smell good. :D), 2 toothpastes, 1 dental floss, 3 pairs of...

My wife and I had a mutual fund that was heavily invested in stocks. Since we are doing a complete over-haul of our financial stuff, I cashed it out while it was up. I want to keep it in something that can be readily accessed in the event of an actual emergency, yet in something that earns...
