I did that at my MIL's house this summer, and frantically worked to get it up without her finding out. I actually poured nail polish remover on the carpet, in small quantities, and scrubbed with a cloth over and over. She must have had some good quality carpet (albeit old), because it came up without a noticeable mark. I finished it up by using some carpet shampoo to get out the nail polish remover and smell. Guess you could spot test on a section of the carpet.

A Polish man moved to the USA and married an American girl.

The lawyer said that getting a divorce would depend on the circumstances, and asked him the following questions: L: Have you any grounds? P: Yes, an acre and half and nice little home.

Anybody Use Butter Nail Polish?Nov 23, 2013
Any opinions on Butter nail polish?  Not about the price, but the performance.   I see good reviews on Amazon, but also a few bad ones.  One that has me concerned is a claim that it weirdly peels off like aluminum foil in a day.  That happened when I topped one brand with another, but never one brand alone. There is also a comment that it smells like vinegar 48 hours later.   I am interested in the "top and tails" set, specifically.   Thanks.   ...

What Is The Best Remedy For Mange In A Dog?Apr 11, 2011
My son brought home a little stray dog he found.  She looks to be some sort of rat terrier mixed.  Very small, black and tan, small pointed snout.  Very cute.  Anyway, she has what I believe to be mites or mange on one side of her face and a bald, scaly red spot on her back near the tail.  I'm between pay checks right now, so I can't make an appointment with the vet until next week, but I want to make her more comfortable.  In my research, I saw a home rem ...

The Oil SpillJun 14, 2010
This is an email forward I received today.

Now they're saying 200,000 gallons a day. That's over a million gallons of crude oil a week! I'm an engineer with 25 years of experience. I've worked on some big projects with big machines. Maybe that's why this mess is so clear to m ...

BP Oil Spill Becoming PoliticalMay 26, 2010
I never saw James Carville so furious and I don't blame him. This is oil spill is absolutely unforgiveable. The marshlands are being destroyed and probably the whole fishing industry for a few years, if not more than decades. I was reading other reports yesterday and I always read the poster's comments. Some say stop depending on oil and depend on nuclear, solar, and wind. That's easier said than done. Solar and wind are expensive and not a guarantee for northern climates. N ...

But we have to face where our addiction to oil has taken us—and this photo brings that home: (Click here if you can't see the image) The disaster in the Gulf of Mexico is heartbreaking—but if an image like this can do anything, it can sear into our minds the fact that we need a real plan to get ...

I was protesting Senator Lisa Murkowski's refusal to make BP pay for the disaster that is devastating shrimping communities across the Gulf Coast. Just imagine this: BP can get away with pouring millions of gallons of oil in our seas and I get arrested f ...

For all those strict adherents to the Constitution, take note of Section 4: Section. 4. The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned.  It would seem this brings into question the fundamental constitutionality of the imposition of a debt ceiling statute, which naturally is trumped by the Constitution.  Look for th ...

BP buys Google, Yahoo oil spill search terms By Hibah Yousuf, staff reporterJune 7, 2010: 6:37 PM ET NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- As BP continues to try to stop the oil gushing into the Gulf of Mexico, the energy giant is also dealing with a public relations nightmare.

I think our President needs to move his office and staff to a boat and park it next to the gusher. Hopefully, that will make people happy. I guess Republicans have forgotten how many days Bush spent at his Texas ranch. Last week, it was an ad. This time, it's a statement from the GOP chairman. O ...

Spread a little mustard on it, then place a piece of ham (or turkey), lettuce and cheese--I use Swiss or Provolone--and roll up and cut into pinwheels. I put the lettuce in between the cold cuts and the cheese. It makes them less slippery and messy. These a ...
