What's a good substitute for leather dressing? Oil, maybe?
Everything in the county's closed up for the moment.
You might try visiting on the weekend as well as during the week at rush hour. There's generally a lot of traffic both ways, since the south side of I-435 is totally built up. Still the edge to the downtown commuters.
Our traffic pattern is busy during the week during working hours and Saturday morning but nothing to speak of after that. It is really quite on holidays, 'everyone' goes to the The Lake.
Definitely avoid the flood insurance thing. Earth quake insurance is quite reasonable though.
Earthquake? EEeek!
Ummm....
Not sure how to answer that.
I just know that, in my life, an air of self-confidence (even feigned) solved a lot of problems and opened a lot of doors. Being an introverted, clumsy, geeky gal myself, the path to that realization was long and unplesant.
well, some acceptable substitutes could include neat's foot oil, lanolin, castor oil, vaseline petroleum jelly aka "the medicine chest in a jar". Don't use mineral oil or linseed oil.
How about motor oil? It also repels mosquitos. Don't ask me how I know this.
I like!
Argh. That part of your post just didn't register. Sorry.
Well, the New Madrid Fault isn't all that far away. :-)
Don't know about that one, but just don't think so. Thanks for the good tip on the skeeters though, didn't know that.

'sokay :)
Here it is!
Bush's visit to CR. I just got back.

Have just spent the last two hours hideously debugging code, only to find that the IDIOTIC program randomly didn't save bits. Don't ask me. I HATE this program.
'Zat your Java compiler?
I don't really have much in the way of adventures planned for this weekend. Just house hunting. And I suppose I should try to get the license plates changed. Hope the bolts aren't stuck.
Might start on my NaNoWriMo story planning.....I have a hard time plotting my way out of a paper bag.
Very cool pics!
Yes, it's the Java. I can't go adventuring unless it's done. Hopefully I can wrap this up by tomorrow afternoon.
My NaNoWriMo plot has a vague idea, one phrase, and eight characters. Good thing we've still got two months, huh?
A pawnshop, Guido, a dead guy, and an evil toaster. Nothing's coming yet...
