My house has been infested with flys, what causes this, and what can i do to get rid of the problem?

By: admin
Published: November 29th, 2009

I have just moved from Vegas to Texas. I bought a house. I’ve always had apartments, that took care of any unwanted insect problems. So anyway, it’s early winter and every room in the house seems to be infested with flying insects. I think that they are your typical flys, but dont they dye when it gets cold? Why are they thriving, even when Ive bought and used sprays, and fly paper. They look like nats, but only bigger. Help me please!

I live in Texas too. Hang up zip lock bags of water around the House. I don’t know why it works, but it does. No chemicals and messes! Try it !

What type of house will withstand a volcanic eruption?

By: admin
Published: November 29th, 2009

In school, I have to create and ‘sell’ a house that will withstand a natural disaster. I got the natural disaster Volcanoes. So I was wondering, will a granite wall melt because of the heat? I was also wondering what other specifications Iwould need to create such a house.

PS I was also wondering if fire resistant paint would keep a House from burning from the heat.

Depends on how big the eruption is and how far from it you are.
As a rule of thumb, no house will withstand one of these. The house will get either buried, burnt or blown apart (alliteration, fancy that). Suggest you find another disaster or specify some factors you want considered.

What authority is given to congress in the constitution over Health Care?

By: admin
Published: November 29th, 2009

Where in the constitution does it give Congress the power to interfere in healthcare and assume control over another 8% of the economy?

False assumptions. The insurance companies are free to continue doing business, and you can keep your doctor and your insurance.

The health care bill merely extends medicare. Nothing in the Constitution makes Medicare illegal.

@Erick: read the 16th Amendment plus tax code section 3111

@H2O: post a link. I await your "proof" with bated breath. But do you know the difference between regulation and "takeover"?

@Erick: read the tax code section 3111. Hint: look at the part that says "Old-age, survivors, and disability insurance"

Note: Erick began by claiming the 10th Amendment made Medicare illegal. When people challenged his claims, Erick erased his substantive comments and replaced them with a mild ad hominem.

@h20: OK, it’s been over 3 days and you have held your silence. You have no evidence to back up your claim. Your "proof" is phony.

What would we do if Congress did decide to give illegal immigrants amnesty?

By: admin
Published: November 29th, 2009

I am against amnesty, and the majority of Americans are against amnesty, but what would we do, if Congress did give it to them? I don’t think they will, some people on here seem to think so though, so I was just curious what we would do, if they voted to give it to them… I’m sure it will be on the table at some point again.

Simple replace Congress. We the people have the power. They speak for and serve us not the other way around.
