He's going back to college part time for his second masters so he ordered a KindleDX.

I was given the job of making sure it was delivered today as promised, and opening the box and plugging it in.

I should have never touched it.

What a neat device!! Huge screen, super fast page turn, and the 5way thingy is super easy to get used to after using my scroll bar....pretty intuitive to learn.

ANYWAY, other than it being a little to heavy for my tastes, it seems to be a great reader. Since he ordered it from Amazon, he was already registered when it got here, and I was able to get the text books he had ordered using K4PC loaded immediately....

'sigh. And still my K1 keeps on going and going and going....................
Donna, Ever heard of Pandora?

The K3 in Oz is looking very tempting now.

I will not succumb, I will not succumb,.........Help!

Cheers.

I'd rather not be smelling our skunk-sprayed dog! (even after several washes and a treatment with hydrogen peroxide & baking soda solution)

use douche!!!!

true story... back in Colorado we had a doggie door and 2 Newfoundlands. one night they went dashing out at odarkthirty raising hell! they found a skunk in the backyard that they manage to chase IN the doggie door, cornered it under the dining room table and it let loose right in my big male dog's face, the female got a heavy dose on the side. I had JUST returned from a Search and Rescue Academy, with dogs the month previous, and we were told about using concentrated massengill douche!

my husband went to the grocery store (this is about 3 in the morning keep in mind) and bought 10 boxes of concentrated douche and nothing else. he said the kid at the cash register just stared at him and he could see "I'm not gonna ask, I'm not gonna ask... probably safer not to know...." going across his face.

anyway, the douche worked wonders on the dogs and they sure smelled better than the house and the carpets for a long time!

You just use it in it's concentrated form?
I think this skunk had hid itself under our deck ! Do you have any suggestions for getting him out from under there, before this happens again?

Did you use it on the carpets too? Not that we have any carpet, but I think she laid on her dog bed before we could figure what the horrid smell was! Driving around I can smell skunk easily, but in the house we thought that something was burning! We were running around smelling all of our electrical appliances & mechanicals!

Thanks for the idea! Were you the one that helped me out with the nettle I got into too?

yep, use it in the concentrated form. the one thing that saved us with the carpet was that it was a pretty good quality oriental. we took it outside, soaked it, made a baking soda solution swept it into the rug, got a couple of gallons of lemon scented dishsoap, invited all the neighborhood kids over to play "slip and slide (fortunately the front lawn was a bit of a hill) and kept this up for about 3 days then just let it dry in the sun. if you have wall to wall carpet the best I can come up with is brush baking soda into the dry carpet and vacuum a couple of times, then see about carpet shampooing and use as much febreeze as possible.

yep! I had the nettle answer aswell!
