Q: Please tell me where I can find Keogh’s Blue Cheese potato chips in any local store. They are super crunchy with a tasty blue cheese flavor that’s not too strong. These might be the best chips I’ve ever had. Help. — Hal Roberts, email

Q: I have sliding glass doors covered by wooden blinds. Something is wrong with the drawcord, and they won’t open or close unless I do it manually. I have contacted many companies that sell shades, shutters and blinds, but they only want to sell me something and will not fix them. Please give me the name of a company that will make a house call. — Ann Olim, email
