    - I'm wondering if a lot of real estate agents and general contractors end up forming symbiotic relationships. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Mar 15, 15:19 2

        From carpet can be difficult. It just sounded like it was a disaster area and for the cleaners to have it put right by 11 AM is pretty good, I think. - Fuzzy Mar 15, 15:11 1

- yes -- nm - Danedukenuuk Mar 15, 14:57
- Prius' probably can't reach 94 mph is probably the first clue. -- nm - Qale Mar 15, 14:51
- with context, I think it's likely he lied. - b. Mar 15, 14:50
- he pressed the brake 200 times in a 20 minute drive? was he trying to make himself puke? - Max Mar 15, 14:47
