We just purchased the house next door as an investment. The couple that lived there used those hurricane lamps with some sort of fuel for lighting when their power was turned off. To top it off, they were smokers. (I'm not knocking that-I'm a smoker, too). Anyway, back to the subject. They used the lamps 24/7 and WHAT A MESS! The soot was worse than the nicotine, believe me. We repainted the entire 3 bedroom home, shampooed the rugs (4 times mind you to get them clean). I am surprised they didn't burn the house down. God knows what else they were burning in there for heat. Lucky it didn't burn down. When we washed the windows, the insides were far dirtier than the outsides. What a mess and thank goodness we are done. I never saw so much black soot in my life and there were only 2 people living there.

The band is Fuel, the same Hemorrhage he did
was by them. I just wish this stuff would go away. Good Lord there at thousands of things more important like AIDS, world peace, hunger, genocide.
And, you feel the need to comment to add fuel
ROFL! Using sugar to fuel your MT fingers?
I will admit to having a jar of Bit o' Honeys and Hershey kisses on my desk, but I only have one per day. I'm happy right where I am, too. I love working at home. We've got huge windows and a sliding glass door, and I have total control of the thermostat. It's nothing like any of my other jobs where it was always too hot or too cold and we never got to see the daylight.
