    And possibly more information than you really want on vinegar. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinegar
    Cool thanks. I also ran across a book once called 1001 Uses For Vinegar.

    Hi, Naturegal! You're smart to buy vinegar. I buy it in a double-gallon box and do a lot with it, including make cleaning fluid by mixing it with water and lavender oil.
    The Vinegar Institute is my favorite site with info on its many uses.

    Thanks, Crashdive, for that new vinegar link!

    I should write a book on 101 uses for baking powder. That's my all purpose cleaner. I use it everywhere!

    Do people actually do that? Read your posts, I mean?

    Why should I. My fingers know what they want to type. Engaging my brain would just be a waste of good fat cells.

    I washed windows inside and out, upstairs and down, today. You can't stop Pink Fluffy Bunnies if you can't see them.

    No. Mrs. Rick is going to pay EXTRA to read his posts. For the time being, we're only getting paid to be nice to him, remember?

    I really like using baking soda. You can use it in laundry, brush your teeth...and my personal fav is mixing it with water and drinking it when I have heartburn.

    It's great for removing stains from counter tops. It acts as a very mild abrasive. You can clean the sink, the tub just about anything.

    Was talking about guns today with a cutomer. Turns out he had some .357 and .38 ammunition but he no longer had a weapon in that caliber. He said if you want them, their yours for $50. I took em. Just finished going through the ammo can to see what I bought (I didn't open it while at his home) Here's the inventory - .357 JHP 100 rounds, .38 special JHP 200 rounds, .38 special WC 100 rounds, 3 five round speed loaders that fit my Taurus, 1 six round speed loader that fits my Ruger. All in all, not a bad buy.

    Nice Score!!! Did he have anything in size .32? I'm not particular about the color.

    This was the only thing he was parting with - well he was selling some 9mm too. He's the one that bought a pallet of it. He asked me if I still wanted a case - told him that I had gotten lucky when I was in a Walmart and they were just stocking the shelves. He's getting $300 a case from dealers just so they can keep their customers from looking elsewhere.
