    Crazy to think of that. I think central heat is standard here in New England. I lived without it for a few years, when my family had a home powered only with a wood burning fire place. Nothing like waking up in the middle of the night to get wood from the pile outside. I'm getting cold just recalling it.

    Now, central air--that, to me, is a luxury I have never had or needed. I love the heat!

    Before we got the electric heaters, we hated to go off and leave the house even during the day because of not being able to run the kerosene.

    I has such a good time with my little girls. We watched some Christmas movies and laughed ourselves silly when some guy dancing the Nutcracker got a cramp in his leg.

    had some electric heaters that look like radiators and they either kept killing the fuse box or ended up dying . it sucks because they were good when they were running but they just didnt run for more than a year.

    It’s a status symbol which can’t be ignored, and the sneaker size matters none since there’s at least someone in their circle of friends whose foot size foot fits the sneakers in question

    not sure what would happen if it was. we have another dispatch center down the road but its not as big. Im sure it could take some slack but train traffic would slow down a bit..

    I have a window next to my light switch next to the back door. And at the moment a cardboard box under the window. Ran into the room reached for the light switch stepped on the box losing my balance. Reached for the wall to brace myself. Instead put my hand through the window.
