George, did you really mean to say that the city carries around a chipper every single week, purportedly for the use of the public...? Who gets to keep the chips? Is there a charge? Can one also chop the wood into certain lengths, tie it in bundles, and leave it at the curb? Another question, not intended to be flippant, but how do you break apart a quart of frozen onions, when the time comes? At home, I break up a bag of frozen ice cubes by slamming it on the floor (closed, of course <g>), and do the same with a quart of cooked rice (flat-packed in a Ziplock bag) -- works like a charm. But out in St.Louis where I was just visiting, my daughter would not allow me to threaten her sister's stone floor with the ice cubes, and so I beat the tar out of the bag with a wooden mixing spoon, instead. Broke the ice, but busted the spoon. Penny, NY . ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO! Juno offers FREE or PREMIUM Internet access for less!
