Oh, that ad. I have it ad blocked so I can't see it here. But I did see that somewhere else. What? Just because a sight is called GardenWeb, us guys don't exist here? Um, what about all the guys in the trades from plumbing to tiling and everything in between? Or how about the lawn and lawn tractors? That's what drew me to GW in the first place. I don't think it's that big a deal, given the non-fictional subject matter.

Urlee, my printer prints fine, I just want to use up the last of the ink in the color cartridge so I can replace them both, color/bl at same time due to a printing job I am working on, don't want the black to be dark and the colors faded, as they are seeming to be lighter, and would like the whole print job to be about the same quality if possible. Taking the last of the color ink and using it shouldn't be a problem, I can use it for any odds and ends jobs, just would like to know how to get most of it out before I go ahead and replace both IF possible. Is there such a short cut/hint out there from someone?

The strength aspect is one concern, for sure. I don't knead that often but still the downward pushing would be a concern. Never thought about the sliding back and forth thing, either. Don't these fancy pants slides have stops built in to help offset the tendency to 'glide' when you are working on them? But man, Beagles and a2's look sturdy. So, a2gemini: would you feel like your pull out would be strong enough to stand up to some rolling out of cookies or kneading of bread dough? Williamsem: that table is kind of neat. The price, though. eek. DH would no doubt bring up the question of how much bread we could buy for 500.00. donaleen: good link, thanks. I'm going to check that out more later. Right now we're FINISHING OUR POWDER ROOM!! WOOHOO! The first room to be completed in this place. 15 months since the gutting began.

LindaKathy, I'd be more impressed with that link if it didn't contain some grammar mistakes and typos. Nodakgal, yes, that's how I learned about this toxic mess they're dumping into our drinking water in the guise of "dental health." Yuck and double yuck. I called a couple bottled water companies and learned that even their products contain small amounts of fluoride. I'd like to buy a filter but am having trouble finding a filter that removes the lion's share of fluoride. Apparently, it's a hard compound to eliminate from the water supply. How I wish the city wouldn't dump that mess into our water supply. It *is* a case of being medicated without our consent. I've removed high fructoce corn syrup from my diet and aspartame and artificial sweeteners and the only thing left to drink is occasional fruit juice and water. BTW, scientists at EPA demand that the bottled water in their offices be fluoride free. What does that tell you? Rose
