[Highland Park] Need help with sewing machine
by CKulk44＠aol.com 28 Nov '08

28 Nov '08

Hi, I inherited an old (1970s?) sewing machine from my mother a number of years ago. Obviously, I'm not a sewer -- I've never used it! But I'm thinking it would be nice to use it for simple things, like making curtains. My question is: does anyone know someone who (1) could give it a "tune-up" and (2) show me the basics of how to get started using it? Thanks, Claudette **************Life should be easier.

[Highland Park] got a silver VW or Audi?
by Helen Blier 28 Nov '08

28 Nov '08

Hi neighbors - If you have a reflex silver (that's the light silver) VW or Audi, then I've got a paint touch-up set for you. I purchased it from the dealer (yikes, it was pricey!) and I used it once on my silver Jetta, which I no longer have. Interested? drop me an email at pacem1(a)gmail.com and I'll make sure it gets to you. No charge - you're doing me the favor of helping with my pre-holiday purge of stuff I don't need! Helen

I have a cat who has an injury and needs to be isolated from our other cat while he heals. It would be very helpful to have (for about two weeks) a large crate he can stay in part of the time. Please email me if you can help. Best regards, Michelle Belan michelle(a)belancreative.com

[Highland Park] Looking for one-day carpool road trip to the Inauguration
by Eliza Littleton 26 Nov '08

26 Nov '08

Dear Highland Park, After emailing, calling, and googling everyone I can think of, I cannot find a group of folks going to the Inauguration on a one-day road trip. Do you know of anyone? I am not asking for myself. I am asking for a deserving friend who was there in 1963 to hear Martin Luther King, Jr.'s "I Have A Dream" speech at the Lincoln Memorial in D.C. There must be other Pittsburghers like him out there. Going to the free Inauguration events--or just being there in the city--seems to me like the matching bookend in this gentleman's life. He has told me a bit about the 1963 event and what the speeches and the gathering (which he described as surprisingly quiet and attentive for that many people) meant to him personally, as an African-American. However, he cannot drive himself that distance, and I intuit that he is on a fixed income, so with the prices they're charging now to stay even 2-3 hours outside of D.C., he can only afford to go there and back in a day. Charter buses and hired drivers can't drive longer than 10 hours without a 9-hour rest (so, overnight stay); Amtrak can't get him there in time for the speeches and parade and then back home the same day. So, I am now asking you: do you know anyone going there and back in a day? -Eliza
