When I woke up yesterday to the ultimate black-screen-of-death on my PC, I was completely stressed out. I would push the power button and there was not so much as a whir, or even a purr, nary an inkling of life. While that is NEVER a good thing, thanks to RE PC, it wasn't a bad thing either. After an hour or so on the phone, we determined that the internal power supply needed to be replaced. Sounds scary! And I was going to have to wait 48 hours for a tech to come out, then pay a whole lot of money for parts and labor. BUT, someone suggested that I go to RE PC. Well, that was a very good idea. Although they tried to find a used Power Supply for $2.95, we couldn't. That said, I was thrilled that for $24.95 I was able to buy a new one, and they helped guide me through the process of replacing it myself. (They couldn't touch it unless I actually paid them to fix it, but it was both helpful and empowering to have them guide me through it.) Long story short, for $24.95, I was using my computer by dinner time, and am no longer scared of anything, at least not anything inside my computer's tower.

Being an avid party thrower, I have come to love and appreciate Home Cake Decorating Supply CO. Every single time I have been in there - the owner has been immensly helpful.
She always gives me helpful tips and helps me figure out just how to create whatever it is I'm trying to accomplish. They stock everything you could ever want in the area of cake decorating and the quality is SO much better than anywhere else!!

Noises in the attic...We had gotten another pest service to come out and give us a quote and were frankly horrified by what we heard: Many rats and we would need at least a years service agreement plus rat proofing of the house to take care of the problem, which was all quoted at $$$$$$$$. We called Eagle after reading the above reviews and Mitch arrived on time, spent almost an hour going over the entire house (roof, crawl space, garden) and gave us some helpful hints, how to's and left. No charge and no giant rat problem (some old evidence but nothing like we were originally told). Amazing service, honesty, and free advice. All qualities that are hard to find these days. I will be referring them to anyone with a critter problem.

Packaging Specialties is such a great store. They have TONS of ribbon, wrap, cards, and other packaging items. As a small business owner I appreciate their selection of cello bags, ribbon etc. They have a wide selection of Midori ribbon, which is high-quality and comes in a whole array of colors and finishes.

Seattle Lighting may be busy at times, but I can honestly understand why. The staff is friendly and smart and they helped me light my entire home one room at a time. They even have a free parking lot downtown!

Rats are clever and persistant. If you're going to get them out of your house and keep them out, you have to do all the work Redi National recommends, especially to find and close up entry points. Redi trapped five rats in our house in short order. That was two years ago. We've not had another rat in the house. The bait boxes show lots of activity -- there are plenty of wild rats ready to move in if we let down our guard. The techs have been great: polite, punctual, and effective.

I had limited time to run into Morgan's and pick out a wide spread faucet. The Morgan's salesman immediately asked the type I wanted and my budget. I said old-timey chrome and he took me to their sale section which actually had what I wanted. Score!

I told someone from California that in Seattle we sometimes see a "glowing-ball thing," yellowish in color, that somehow turns the ordinarily gray sky a bluish color. It appears to be about three miles across and about 50 miles above the earth, climbing in the Eastern sky in the early part of the day and gradually making its evening descent somewhere in the West. "Do you mean 'the Sun'?" was the reply. In Seattle, we don't get a lot of that glowing-ball thing in our diet and sometimes need a supplement, and the Indoor Sun Shoppe http://www.indoorsun.com/ has many props that will help interested parties to stage the illusion that we really live in the tropics. Full Spectrum Lights may help the SAD http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seasonal_affective_disorder sufferers to not feel like hibernating. The exotic plants, decor and insects to go with them will help to complete the illusion.

This place has decent deals and is one of the less sketchy places. I hate to say it but the only serious safe places to buy computer parts are the bug stores like best buy. This place is one of the better smaller shops though, they offer guarentees on their items! Wow hard to believe. So you are a lot better off here then the other hole in the wall stores.
