The flying carpet cleaners all wear jet-packs and use the best high tech steam cleaners for your carpets. They fly around the room while thoroughly cleaning your rugs without one footprint embedded into the luscious pile of your favorite carpet. Then they fly away. You will get the bill in the mail.-- xandram, Jul 17 2007 "Fantasy will set you free" http://www.steppenw...com/lyr/magcca.html [normzone, Jul 17 2007] hope they wiped their feet on the way out.

(My floors are mostly wood and tile.)-- xandram, Jul 18 2007 //what does Eddie Mars have on you?// - Well I don't know how much he knew about me and Carmen, but while he was still on the scene there was always the chance that General Sternwood would find out and pull a number on me. I wanted to get rid of Eddie Mars, but so did his own men and so did xandram - who had been secretly meeting up with Vivien in culture:movie:derived work and selling information about Marlowe. Of course if Vivien had told her father about the falcon and he knew Mars was involved...
