@Bubble181 wallpaper is out. Go with paint.

If it has more than two bedrooms then use a semi gloss paint - easy to clean and a three bedroom often has children or pets.

Generally unless you're an interior designer you should go with fairly neutral light paints. Going with color can put some buyers off even if they are chosen perfectly, and lighter paints can make rooms appear more open and spacious.

More expensive paints often only need one coat, and as long as the current wall isn't too dark or dirty and is matte you often don't need primer with the better paints. Check the labels carefully.
 
We went with bold colours when we built our house. Our living room and dining room have brick red walls and our room is midnight blue. We have white trim and light wood floors.

Salesperson tried to email a 1 gig zip file monday.

When it didn't go through, she created a new e-mail, reattached the 1 gig zip file, and sent that, too.

When that didn't work, she finally just put it on a flash drive and took it where it needed to be in person.

But left those two e-mails in her outbox.

So then, all the e-mails she tried to send since monday just piled up behind the 1 gig attachment e-mails, because those cause the send/receive process to time out and give up.

She doesn't say anything about it to me until today at 5pm, which is her last day working here.

She has often done dumb crap like this. I've actually said on more than one occasion, to her face, while fixing something she messed up, that it was a good thing she's pretty.

(She is, though, she's really pretty. But she does have her blonde moments.)
 
I am uncomfortable with how easily I am able to navigate through Ikea.
Since I have gotten my own apartment last summer, I have been so often at Ikea for random stuff, that I know two of the cashiers by name and know all of the shortcuts.

Hamburg,Germany has as far as I know the first Ikea Store that is smack dab inside the city and it takes me a 15 minute bus ride from doorstep to doorstep.

Anyone in Michigan that wants to watch channel 7 news in a little bit, this story is about me:

 
I wonder if there are any factory spec DeLoreans out there? Or have they all been modified to look like the one from BTTF?

It's already been mentioned that DMC Houston has the inventory, but I wanted to add that yes, there are factory spec DeLoreans out there, and you can even buy one "new" from the factory, they'll build you one using the remaining inventory, complete with 1983 Vin number

I only went to the two other stores in Hamburg (Hamburg Schnelsen and Hamburg Moorburg) but never to the new one. Is there a huge difference?

I'm seriously thinking about getting a small business loan, quitting my job, and starting a VR Arcade. I have a place scouted out that would be about $3000 a month and has a lot of foot traffic in a growing part of town that caters to 18-24 year old college kids. I'm writing up the business plan now to present to the bank.
 
So, one of the parking lots at work (let's say we have 4, although an argument could be made there are 5, or only 3) gets awfully full when the afternoon shift people show up, to the point where it is completely full.

There are some people who show up nearly an hour early to find a spot in this lot, rather than park in the massive one where there's plenty of space, because they don't want to walk the extra five minutes it would take them to cross the street and walk through to the back of the building. :confused:

These would be the real go-getters, the ones with their eyes on getting that corner office, and who will probably end up in the cardiac ward by age 55.
