Make a collage or put together a photo album of your special times together. Create it with your own tow hands. That would be something very special. Or go to Build-A-Bear! Happy birthday to your friend!

My friend just had a baby what do i get them??

My friend just had a baby and she lives 4 hours away from me we just went up there this weekend to see her and the baby. I want to get her or both of them something such as a gift basket or flowers. Does anyone have any good sites i can use? But it has to be where i can ship it to them. THanks
--------------------
You know what would be amazing? A maid service. There's nothing like taking the pressure off like having someone else clean your house. Another idea is to have a couple meals delivered. Flowers are lovely, but you can't eat them. A meal for a super-tired mom and hungry dad is always appreciated.

a good guy friend of mine is leaving for iraq in a few days, whats a good gift to give him?

hes in the marines and is leaving for training and then going to iraq for a year and i want to get him something to say goodbye. I was thinking that i could make him a big basket of junk food and buy a little journal for him and have our co-workers write something in the beginning of it, and then he could fill the rest of it with his experiences and whatnot.....but i dont know
--------------------
some good ol' american pu$$y. then also get him a leather bound journal. so he can write about the things that he goes through. also have people write some encouragement notes in it so that he has something to remind him of where he came from when ever he needs that moral booster

How can i learn basket weaving on my own?

all tips and useful information welcome..just really want to teach my self to make more of my giffts for holliday gift giving and to broaden my mind basically ..thank you kindly.
--------------------
There are some instructions on the internet. And some old forums that you might get some information from. http://basketmakers.com/topics/patterns/… http://forums.delphiforums.com/basketmak… Weaving baskets means wet wrinkley hands!! Yes, you can learn this on your own. I did, and before I got internet connections for help. Look at the bottom of a basket. Lay the spokes out accordingly, with the weavers well soaked start placing them around in the spokes and pushing thrm to the center. When you want your basket to curve up, just bend the spokes up a little and pull the weavers a little tighter. Have fun!

Does anyone know anything about "Cholesteatoma"?

I'm sorry if that is spelled wrong, I'm a bad speller for being 13 years old. When I was about 4 or 5, my little brother had a major ear surgery in his left ear. He was only 3 years old, which is sad. My mom always said, "He has to get his ear cut open because there is something eating his brain" to me to dumb it down. Today I asked for the real name of it because I was curious again. She said it was Cholesteatoma. I have been searching it on the internet. I was wondering if anyone else knew anything about it. He is also 10 years old now and 20% death in his left ear. He had the surgery 2. once in 2003 and once again in 2004. Also bone reconstruction surgery in his middle ear part if that helps with info. That's basically all I know about the surgery thingy he has had besides the fact he got gift baskets and stuff and had bandages around his head(obvious). So anyone know anything about Cholesteatoma? Anything at all would be helpful. Thanks in advanced.

i have the mother in law from hell. she came to my house n commented on the new etched chrystal glasses i got 80% off n bin. when she left the items were gone, how on earth does someone steal 7 cups n a bin.the brother knows there is no smoking in the house. he stayed over for a week n i found 40 cigarettes in my beautiful spare bedroom. he had stubbed them out in my grandmas china cups that were displayed there. she left them when she passed away. the sister ignores me on facebook but is nice to my face. when i met the mother i bought her a gift cos i wanted to make a good impression, i bought her a lo'occetaine gift basket. i got it on sale with the specials they had n instead of paying $600 it was $180.i added a few things that i got at another shop 2.lo'occetaine is a super expensive brand for really rich people, id never be able to afford it if it wasnt for the special.it was a huge gift basket with gourmet treats, hand cream,face cream, bath oil,reed difuser,3 scented soaps,foot balm,sugar scrub, perfume,3 scented oils, 3 scented candles,incense,relaxation cd,fardoulis chocolates, a bottle of her favourite sparkly etc. it was beautifully gift wrapped. anyway she hated it, she put it to the side like it doesnt matter, didnt really even thank me. 6 months later she has a go at me n said it was inconsiderate of me to buy her a gift like that, i asked her why n she said that i was flashing my money, but i didnt say to her "oh my god this was so expensive".i dont know how someone can change that aorund, the next time i went away i bought her back a gift from overseas, a fine bone china teaset i got a victorias basement they are only maybe 100 anyway n thats not alot for a teaset anyway, she didnt seem intersted, all she said was i wish youd gotten me perfume like you gave to kate (my sis inlaw). she comes over for tea, doesnt comment on the food, i made roast pork,all she said was, i wish youd let me help you, but it was already made when they arrived then she helped me serve.she is so ungrateful. i redecorated our spare bedroom, i bought at auctions online, deceased estates n garage sales n i furnished the whole thing amazingly for 250. i bought beautiful antique furniture that someone thought was worth nothing n sanded it back n laquered it, i went to alot of trouble for this n when she sees it she says nothing, then says to my partner that i offended her by showing her cos shes not good at baragins hopping, my partner also agrees stupid reason to be angry.the brother doesnt flush the toilet, drank out of our milk, (i caught him), picks his nose n eats it, plays with his belly button then smells his finger at the dinner table then wiped the contents on my grannys napkins that she left me.he comes to our house n opened my partners 6 month anniversary pressent, it was a bottle of gentlemen jack.when we first moved to the area nearer to them cos we lived on the other side of the country we bought all new furniture as we sold all our old cos it costs too much to move furniture that wasnt very nice anyway.we saved for a year like crazy. when we got the the area she came with us shopping for furniture then at the end of the day wouldnt speak to me n i didnt know why. my sister in law later tells me that she is upset cos she was eying a $1800 dinig set n i didnt buy it for her, how on earth can she be angry about that, its my money.she came to our house warming n didnt bring a gift. she came to my partners bday n bought a card, shes not even poor thats the funny thing.she rings up my partner all the time saying her psychic intuition told her within 10 minutes of meeting me that i have the devil inside me. im a seventh day adventist so we are super churchy ppl. his sister believes th intuition fromt he start. they even said we have ghosts in our house n evil spirits that want to hurt n kill me. who says that to someone. she said one of the rooms is really cold, but thats cos it has 3 2mx2m windows so its gonna be cold cos windows let out heat n let in cold.shes so nice to my face but says awful thing to everyone else.she says the craziest things like she said to me in a conversation that domestic abuse is normal. whos says that to someone. she manipulates my partner n brings up things like he accidently ran over the brothers cat 12 years ago n she brings it upa llt he time.she even got angry that we shouted the whole family pizza, apparently that was my partner flashing around money but it wasnt, we just didnt want to cook n it was a movie night.im a portly girl n she says to my partner, she will only get bigger, have you seen those ppl on tv that are so fat that they cant walk, she could become that.all because ive gained 8kilos in 18months.she wastes heaps and heaps of her money on lottery tickets, ebay crap that she doesnt need, 4 crap cars in the driveway etc then calls me out on buying pizza. another thing is i really want children some day, like 4 or 5 n my partner does too, i come froma big family n id

Some people are pigs.. meet on neutral ground, put on your gas mask and meet at her place. Her money, she spends it like she wants. Your money, you spend it like you want. House rules. You are the matron, you make the rules. No smoking in the house is a rule. Offer them the back porch. Dining with pigs, meet at a central place like CiCi pizza, cheap and usually bugger pickers will refrain while in public.

This years theme is Going To The Hop, so everything is 50's related, in addition to good food, were having a contest of sorts for anyone dressed most accurately according to the era they will receive a gift basket filled with goodies. I am also in charge of creating the gift basket {which isnt a problem perse because its a fledgling business I'm trying to start}; at any rate I was hoping that someone can help me with some ideas for the basket, so far I have bottles of coke and pez candy dispensers and chesse whiz to put in the basket what else was fun and popular during the 50's that would hold up well in a gift basket. Thank you for your help....

Is "Don't waste your breath talking to me!" direct enough to tell a guy off after he disappointed you??

He asked me to make him something...a gift basket. We're friends so I went ahead to make him happy. I don't usually, but this guy is usually nice. Well now he says he still wants it but acts like he doesn't!!! I'm mad and I want to know how other ppl would handle this situation. I have decided yet whether still being friends is important...so tell me in your statement how to handle it and if still being friends is right or wrong!
--------------------
I dunno if you wanna tell him not to waste his breath because he might take that as you NEVER want to speak to him. It sounds like he is playing mind games with you. Its NOT cool I like people to say what they mean and do as they say. I think the best way to handle this would be to play games right back. Tell him you gave his basket to someone else (You don't really have to do that though) I think that by giving him the basket now when he's acting rude and not showing interest in it, and not picking it up when he said he was going to would be rewarding him for bad behaviour. Men are kind of like kids and most of them are dogs so why not treat them like one. You have to train them just like dogs. When he does something good reward him by giving him the basket or saying something nice to him. When he is bad then don't talk to him or give him any attention, put him in the "doghouse,' figuratively. Hope this helps.

Advertise on internet....?

Does anyone know websites I can go to to advertise a gift basket business.
--------------------
ebay, or try google adwords. Amazon also is definitely an option. Or you can buy email leads and just do the advertising yourself.

Ladies survey: Do you think this was this inconsiderate of me?

I have a sort-of girlfriend; we have been together many years, but I think it's clear to both of us that we won't be together much longer. We still live together as roommates. Today she received a gift basket from a friend that lives back east. This friend she grew up with, and though they have little contact anymore, they remember each other at Christmas. This gift basket had high quality fruit in it, and since I am a vegetarian, fruit is an indulgence for me, especially stuff like this. I just tore into the fruit basket and got at the fruit--I didn't stop to think about maybe her wanting to open the basket herself when she gets home from work---I just wanted that fruit. It occurred to me that maybe she would be mad, but at that point, the gift basket was in shreds, although there's lots left from it, of course. I'm halfway considering hiding it and saying one never showed up. Am I in big trouble? I'm sick from eating all the fruit, too. Was I an inconsiderate jerk?
--------------------
Yes, you are, this time, yes you are. You better show it to her and apologize right away. She will probably be pissed. I would.

--------------------
1. take the greatest common factor of 12 and you get an unsimplifyable amount of 2 shampoo 3 tubes and 5 soaps so your gcf is the answer. 12. 2. take a gcf of 8 out so only 8 teams. and your left with 5 girl and 4 boy and those are your teammates people 5 girls and 4 boys. 3. FIRST OF ALL I DONT UNDERSTAND PART ONE SO THAT WILL NOT BE IN THE ANSWER. Second part's answer is the gcf which is 3. then you have 5 quarters in a group, 10 dimes and 16 nickels and the total money is 3.05 dollars. 4. you take gcf of 9 and you get an unsimplifiable amount so NINE IS YOU ANSWER.

Is this a good christmas idea?

I want to give my boyfriend a gift basket for christmas that I'll put together. I'm thinking about putting in a nice throw blanket, a Zune skin I made him on skinit.com, a candle (He's a big candle guy) The move: Requiem For A Dream And Peppermint bark, cookies, ect. Any other ideas?
--------------------
Sounds awesome already!!! Does he like Coffee or cocoa? You could get him a nice mug. And if he likes either one, you could also get a bag of nice coffee beans or special hot cocoa to go along with it. Another idea, could be a GC to Blockbuster (or another movie place) maybe even a container of popcorn to go along with it. How great is that, you could watch the movie together one cozy night, while snuggling under the throw blanket from the your basket!

Which system of linear inequalities decribes the condition's in this problem?

Jared earns money by making gift baskets for fathers day. He does one basket filled with finishing supplies and another basket with a sports fan theme, He makes a profit of $9.00 on the finishing Supply basket and a profit of $12.50 on the sports fan basket. He only has time to make 100 baskets and needs to earn at least $1,000 to Cover his summer activities. a) 12.5x + 9y < 1000, x + y > 100 b) 12.5x + 9y < 1000, x + y < 100 c) 12.5x + 9y > 1000, x + y < 100 d) 12.5x + 9y > 1000, x + y > 100 ty in advance. easy points or best answer!
--------------------
The correct answer is C. x is representing the number of supply baskets. y are the sports fan baskets. See how they are multiplied against the money he makes for each one? Now, he has to make 'at least' $1000, so technically it should be greater than or equal to 1000, but then the x + 7, again the number of total baskets made has to be less than 100 (technically less than or equal to) to not run out of time.

Present for Uncle who likes golf?

I need help picking a present for my Uncle. He did my taxes this year at his firm and doesn't charge me but I insist on getting him a present. He has just lost 100lbs and is on a VERY restricted diet. I'd like to get him a golf themed gift basket but all of the pre made gift baskets come with food that he cant eat. His daughter said he can have Diet Coke but snickered at her when she suggested he try those 100 Calorie pack treats. I could make my own basket but any ideas on what I would put in it? Any golfers out there? What would you like to receive as a gift. $0 - $80 range.
--------------------
What about a round of golf at his local club? You can get him a gift card for that and if loves golf that's the perfect gift!
