Are bungee cords allowed? I'll nally have a use for the 200-300 bungee cords my dad le for me. Victoria S. A perfect solution would be to install a couple of zip lines.

If you are the first correct guess chosen at random, you will win! JANIE HAUGHN Please call Monica in the Admin. Oce for your special prize. From Courtney, the publisher: I had the same printer in my office for over 15 years. It was a workhorse, printing hundreds of pages of proofs for magazines, copying documents, and spitting out "DO YOU NEED A NEW ROOF?" faxes three times a day. It sat in the corner and aside from needing ink and paper (and dusting), it didn't ask for much. Then a couple months ago, the cyan stopped working. The ink cartridge was full but it didn't want to print that color. Skies became green and lakes looked like swamps. I ran tests and pushed all the buttons I could find and nothing helped. The Lifestyles Committee commented during proofing that the blue text they normally proofed was green and they liked it better. But I knew I had to let the printer go and get a new one. I ordered the latest and greatest from Amazon and the giant box sat on a shelf next to the old printer for another month. Maybe I did that on purpose to scare the old printer into getting its act together and printing blue again. But it didn't work and I finally unpacked the new printer and hooked it up, putting the old printer in my car and driving it to a recycling center. When I unloaded it onto a cart, I felt a wave of sadness. It hadn't been outside ever. All it knew was the quiet, cool corner of my quiet office. Now it was going to live in a field with broken bicycles and rusted wheelbarrows. "I'm sorry," I whispered. Then I thought, "What is wrong with me?" I was feeling sad for a thing. A thing that didn't work. I collected $2.25 for it and drove home. I started looking around and realized I was hanging on to a lot of things that I, as an adult, I should be able to let go. The nightstands in my guest room were two ends of a desk I sawed apart in college and have lugged around with me since. I deserve new nightstands. Hello Wayfair. Ten minutes later, two new nightstands were on their way to my guest room. There was also an old hutch that my parents bought in 1964 when they were first married. It's ugly and has a hole sawed in the back (we enjoy sawing in my family) so cords from a long forgotten stereo could go through. Wayfair to the rescue again and a midcentury modern sideboard was being loaded on a truck that night. I have a few more pieces of furniture I need to break up with (the 1950s TV cabinet I thought would be great for puppet shows I never organized and some chairs from a dining room set that is gone) but I think I've made a good start. I just hope my old printer doesn't miss me too much.. I found the joke!
