You can set your temp accordingly when you are going to be home and when at work.
It works. I have seen a modest improvement in energy costs when I installed one in our house. They are inexpensive and easy to install.

I have used them and their baskets are very nice. My grandmother, who isn't often forthcoming with compliments, received one of these in 2007. She was impressed enough to comment on the pears that were part of the basket.
This was my first introduction to the asian pear. An outstanding peice of fruit.

Thanksgiving came early.
I saw something today that was heartwarming but odd. Odd in the sense that it was impulsive. Here is what I saw.
At the exit from 35N onto Admiral Blvd, there are often homeless folks with their hands out. Not a threatening sight. See them often, but not everyday.

As of this morning, the whales are out of site and believed to have made their way into the Pacific ocean. Fine! It's over.It is my lowly opinion that we are doing the whale population a disservice by assiting these fish ("Mammals!") back into the ocean.Craighttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07249641248964981457noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1348441.post-12303704110361823372007-02-26T13:09:00.000-06:002007-02-26T13:15:34.647-06:00Wow!

I have a tip for everyone. Don't skimp on anything you use everyday. This philosophy can be applied to many things but for now now let's focus on the coffee maker.Coffee drinkers use this appliance every day and sometimes twice a day. Don't waste your time on the $15 wal-mart Mr. Coffee. It will work for awhile but over time, it will break down.

Using my 8 wt fly rod and some small #10 shrimp flies (K&K Flyfishers in Kansas), I got into some small Jacks. They fought pretty tough. They have small stout bodies and very strong.
