I cost $30/day and DH costs $35/day, because he still commutes.

Impossible to answer. There's are many levels of living costs between
my present living standard and taking my place under the overpass.
A better question might be - what did you spend per person per day
last year? And where could you cut?
I guess if I gave up all forms of insurance, car, sat in the dark,
rented something squalid and lived on beans, I could get by pretty
cheaply.

The toilet paper costs would kill you, what with all those beans and
not being able to see in the dark.

Living on beans would certainly set you apart from your friends.

Despite having just completed my daily browsing of various news-oriented web
sites, I'm unsure about which of "today's events" triggered your question.
Are you referring to the 300-point rise in the Dow and if so how does that
lead to the "minimum cost of living" question? You're surely not implying
that you think the global economy is on the verge of collapse, I hope.

Make 15k in 30 Days!!!! As seen on Oprah
and 20/20!!!
That's Right 15,000 dollars in your PayPal account - That's all it
takes...
FIRST, PRINT THIS OUT TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS EASIER!
. PAYPAL MAGIC!!!
. TURN $6.00 INTO $15,000 IN ONLY 30 DAYS...HERES HOW!
This is Not a Scam!!!
How to Turn $6.00 into $15,000 in 30 Days with PayPal.
AS SEEN ON OPRAH!!
PAYPAL VERIFIES THAT THIS $6 INVESTMENT
IS 100% LEGAL AND IS A BIG HIT THIS YEAR
SEE THEIR NOTE BELOW OR ASK THEM DIRECTLY...
THIS MIGHT TAKE 15-30 MINUTES AND JUST $6,
BUT IT IS 100% WORTH IT TO MAKE THOUSANDS SO
QUICKLY.
From PayPal:
"Dear Member, it has come to our attention that there
is a PayPal scheme floating around at the moment you
may have heard or seen the $6 scheme. You may have
even taken part in it well we have been asked a lot of
questions about this scheme the answer is yes it does
work and yes it is safe to use providing you follow the
rules it is legal and has made a big hit on the internet
this year. If you would like to take part in this scheme
or would like a bit more information then please see the
attached file that was kindly donated to us. Thank you for
using PayPal!" This Really Works Keep in mind that everything stated
below is 100% legal as stated by the U.S. Post Office
(1-800-725-2161).
Now honestly,what is six Dollars, especially out of a Paypal account.
In exchange you will make thousands in the first few months. You then
place your
own name and email address in the bottom of the list at #6, and post
the article in at least 200 newsgroups. (There are thousands of
newsgroups)
I sent out my measly $6.00 to the six people on the list. Within 7
days, I started: getting $$$$$ in my account!
I was shocked! I figured it would end soon, but the CASH just kept
coming in. In my first week, I made about $25.00.By the end of the
second week I had made a total of over $1,000.00! In the third week I
had over $15,060.00 and it's still growing.This is now my fourth week
and I have made a total of just over $26,000.00 and it's still coming
in rapidly. It's certainly worth $6.00 and 6 minutes to send it out.
This program WORKS. Put in message boards or send as emails.
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Login to PayPal and click the "Send Money" tab near top of
screen
In the "Recipient's Email" field type: the email address

legal)
In the "subject" field type: "EMAIL LIST",
In the "message" field type: "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR EMAIL LIST".
Finally, click on the "Continue" button to complete the payment.
Repeat these steps for each of the 6 email addresses. that's it!
Below are the emails that you transfer the money into:
Paypal accounts to send 1 Dollar to:
The Email List:
1. Jcmabrey85@aol.com

3. rickreineke@hotmail.com
4. hawki336@hughes.net
5. diane_hansen1@yahoo.com
6. jbuhay3@yahoo.com
2.After sending the money to the first 6 people on the list, you can
remove the name next to the #1 on the list and move the rest of the
names up one position (#2 becomes #1, #3 becomes #2, etc?) Then place
your name in the #6 position. Then save it.
3. When you have completed the instructions, take this letter and
then
go to (Google, Yahoo,...) and type in (Making Money Message board,
Money Message Board, Money
Forum, Free money Forum, or anything along those lines that are
forums)
and start posting your copy of this message at least 200 times, to as
many unique message boards as you can, or more. The more times you

What is Gucci?
Gucci is an Italian fashion and leather goods label, and it was
founded by Guccio Gucci in Florence in 1921. A turnaround of the
company which occurred in the late 1980s made Gucci one of the world'
s most influential fashion houses, and in the early 1990s, Gucci
underwent what is now recognized as the poorest time in the company' s
history. This company is most well known for its watches, clothing
lines, and handbags.

From: kevincniven@gmail.com
I'm not certain if this is the correct place to ask this, but I
noticed past threads on this topic in misc.consumers*.
I am trying to help a friend think about debt consolidation. I'm
running into a problem, though, and that is that searching for debt
consolidation companies online turns up a lot of rather fishy looking
enterprises. I'm suspecting that a lot of these companies are
predatory and of questionable legality (or worse).
Does anyone know of a website where I could find reliable information
about debt consolidation companies? The Better Business Bureau's site
was of no help whatsoever. I know she can get debt consolidation
services through reputable major banks (e.g., BofA, Wells Fargo), but
I also guess that there deals may not be as competitive as companies
that specialize in DC.
Thanks,
Kevin

Start with your friend's current bank or credit union. Expand to other local
banks and credit unions.
Another place to start is your local Consumer Credit Counseling Service
(http://www.cccservices.com/).
"Debt consolidation" is not magic, though it is only part of the picture. That
part of it is simply finding a loan at the lowest possible interest rate and
best repayment terms, so you can pay off your higher-interest debt with the
proceeds. Your friend may need help getting into a position to qualify for such
a loan or to find a willing lender; that is where CCCS or similar may help.

I would never put my personal or business calendars online but in this
instance it is limited to functions relating to the group I belong to.
Since we already have each others contact details the calendar will
simply say (names of people) are meeting to discuss (topic) at (time and
place). It would be interesting to see an outsider try to identify us at
the lunch,dinner or whatever and then try to explain their uninvited
presence.
Oh, the calendar will also have such valuable private information as
the list of members speaking at upcoming meetings.
As I said, fine in this case but not in other instances.
Speaking of google a poster in another group has been trying to
hijack that group by flooding it with messages from his sock puppets.
Most of us are ignoring him so he started a google group on the same
topic as the group.He is bragging about how he "owns" the google group
and is bragging that we need his permission to join this group.

I've got a Canon fax/printer/scanner/thing...
I almost never print in color (once a year maybe?).
It keeps using color ink even when I print B&W...
So... Today, it told me I needed cyan ink. I removed the old cartridge and
didn't install a new one. Closed the trap doors and set it free. It thinks
there is plenty of ink, prints in B&W just fine and hasn't given me a
problem yet.
If it's a bad idea, someone will probably come along shortly to tell me
so... But it seems like I can just run it without color cartridges if I
only do B&W... Someone already told me that if the inlet for the ink dries
up, the printer has no mechanism to clean it up... So I may lose color
capabilities forever... Which is fine for me.
Thoughts?

The light did not go out because you left the cart out. It went out
because the open vent you created allowed all remaining ink to drain
down. Very soon it will actually be totally empty and the light/
message should come back. All you will have accomplished is drying out
the print head. Carts are easily refilled with cheap aftermarket ink.
I've been lucky enough to find ink at the dollar store. I stocked up
while it was there and now it's gone. Still, online sources of cheap
ink are available. As a hack, you might consider filling the unused
carts with a mixture of water and alcohol 50/50 to fool the printer.
If it's one of the printers that mixes color to create black, you
won't get black with water or empty as you are now. I love to
experiment, but I always keep several backup printers and quarts of
ink to use in them. You can find many of the answers to these simple
questions on the printer peripheral site. Sometimes it's better to
learn by the mistakes of others.

You may be right... However, I got the idea from an old Cannon printer
(probably 8 years old) that has been running cartridge-less for about a
year... I didn't think to try it on teh new machine.
So what you are saying is that once the resivoir drys up, it'll probably
clog and then I'll have otehr problems?
This is where I get my ink dirt cheap:

So You Want to be a Work at Home Mom?
But Where do you Start?
Right Here!!!!
#1 Plan
Before you sign up for anything, buy anything, do anything, you must
plan. Ask yourself the important questions, like what do you want out
of this and what are you passionate about.
#2 Prioritize
Many of us jump into things that we really can't handle. Don't get me
wrong, we are all Super Mom!!! However, we need to know what is the
most important to us, and how to fit all of the pieces together.
#3 Budget
Similar to time prioritizing, except with money. It is easy to spend
all of your money at the beginning not thinking of this venture as
long term. Or make the mistake of spending money you simply just don't
have. Let's not forget why you are doing this. It is to make money, to
contribute to your family, not to break to bank trying.
#4 Research
Before investing in something, whether it is time, money, or both, you
must know what you are investing in. Flashy websites, big promises,
and dollar signs can distract you away from the real issue at hand.
You want an opportunity that fits your needs, not one that simply
looks good.
In addition, in order to create an accurate budget you will need to
know how much start up, promotion, and maintenance will cost. When
researching an opportunity those are the three things you will want to
find out.
There are basically two routes to go. You can either join a pre-
existing opportunity, or if you have a completely new idea, start a
new eBiz.
#5 Discuss
A confidant is a wonderful person to bounce off ideas. Share your
priorities and plans with your friend/spouse. Allow them to be
objective about whether the opportunity you have chosen fits with what
you want. I recommend have two or three choices in mind.
#6 Sleep
Any good salesperson will tell you, that the biggest part of a sale is
made based on the emotion evoked by the product and the environment
surrounding it, not truly how good the product is. If the opportunity
is as good today as it was yesterday, than you have probably

Index the websites and search engines to help you to find the value of your

I have this very warm 100% thick wool shirt that I need to clean. I
know you can't wash wool in the washer but is there a simple cheap way
to clean this without having to pay a dry cleaner?

Wash it by hand. The recommendations I've seen are to use dish
detergent, not soap. Google around for various suggestions.

I have no earthly idea who you're talking about. The closest name
I recognize to Kudlow is Lisa Kudrow, from "Friends", but obviously
that's not the same thing.
Also, I don't think GW is worthy of praise for how he's handled
the economy. As I said before, and despite your apparent attempts
to ignore reality, I don't like GW. I just think that the
difference in price between the stock market today and the price
when GW was elected is not a meaningful number (due to the
extenuating circumstance of the dot-com bubble).
It is not part of my agenda to defend George Bush. I just really
hate poor analysis of the facts. Especially when it amounts to
"our side is great, look how much the other side sucks in every
possible way" cheerleading rhetoric. For the record, in case you
mistake what I'm saying, I hate that when it comes from any side.
