rubicstrue @rubicstrue (38) • United States 2 Aug 08

I often spill wine, sauce, and all sorts of things on my carpet. What techniques do you use to clean your messes up? I use just plain old water and cloth, but if the need arises, I will go for Oxyclean.

What is your favorite place to have a great burger? I'm not considering the quality of their other foodstuffs, just burgers. My personal favorite is Carl's Junior. It is relativily high quality, but it is also not very pricey.
