How do I convince my dad to let me get a gerbil?

buy Lyrical dance costumes online What are the ups and downs? I know that they rarely bite and they don’t poop as much as other animals do. And they don’t smell and are very clean. But he doesn’t belive me. Any site I can show him and some facts about him? And also store I should visit in case he says yes? Anything near Redwood City, California
If I wait till I’m on my own, that would be 5 years
It is illegal to purchase, import or keep a gerbil as a pet in the U.S. State of California.

What sofa should I get to go with redwood floors?

I just moved into a 1940’s cottage that has white walls and real, beautiful redwood floors. The rest of my furniture is dark brown metal and glass.

I need to buy a sofa but don’t know what color/style/fabric would go well. I think a simple pure white fabric couch ala Pottery Barn would look best but am scared it will stain too much. If anyone can provide links to sofa ideas, I would be most appreciated!

Thanks!

I want to construct some raised planters to grow vegetables in. What type of wood should I use?

Since I have two big dogs I want to construct a couple of planters that sit 2-3 feet off the ground. My only only thing is I am trying to figure out what type of wood to use. My choices are redwood, pressure treated, and standard pine lumber. I would prefer something that I don’t have to treat with stain but will if I have to.

What is a safe alternative to using pressure treated lumber for vegetable garden beds?

I’m making raised beds for my vegetable garden and for obvious reasons can’t use pressure treated lumber. I was thinking of using 1x10s, but cedar or redwood are not in my price range. does anyone know of anything I could do to treat pine that won’t leach into the soil and kill me? also, I have a ton of the original siding from my house (built in 1948) up in my attic. it’s about 1" thick and 8" wide and I have it in lengths of 8-10′ long. It’s been painted on one side, and I’m not sure what kind of wood it is. does anyone know if old siding is historically treated w/ anything nasty to make it fire resistant or age better? and would the paint pose a potential problem? the wood is in good shape, but I’m not sure how safe it would be to use. any thoughts?

Good Reception Sites in Ventura County and Santa Barbara?

I am getting married Summer 2010 and am running out of ideas for reception sites! We are considering the Four Seasons Biltmore in Santa Barbara as well as Spanish Hills in Camarillo. Something in Ventura County would be better than Santa Barbara, as we will have elderly relatives attending who have a hard time traveling.

However, my fiance and I really have our hearts set on finding a ballroom (or banquet room) with multiple sets of french doors that open onto a garden patio.

We have looked at the Westlake Village Inn, Sterling Hills, Los Robles Greens, Calamiguas Ranch in the Malibu Hills, Malibou Lake Mountain Club, the Vineyards in Simi Valley, two other golf courses in Simi Valley, the Four Seasons in Westlake … and more that I cannot think of right now, I’m sure.

Any suggestions of more places to go see?

What stain does the manufacturer apply to Rainbow swing-sets?

My 2 year old Rainbow swing-set has a lot of graying from sunbleaching or weathering. I want to re-stain the gray areas but I do not know what stain the manufacturer applied. I know the wood is redwood. I tried redwood stain and immediately knew that was the wrong color.
