    Laptop bit the dust

    Wife's Compaq Presario went belly up too! Pretty sure its the motherboard after 5 years. Shopping for a new one now and think I'll be stopping at Best Buy tomorrow. The Gateway they have in the Sunday ad looks good enough for $599.

    Weekend's over... A tale of miles, mods, and that new car smell!

    How sweet it is! My brother traded in his 01 Cobra for an 07 GT convertible this week and brought it over to show me. He let me drive it and it is AWESOME! Considering I just finished traffic school (did 36 in a 25 zone), I hear your cousin on #2! Congrats on the new ride!:D:D:D

    Universal remotes for Home Theater/AV systems

    Hey Jack I bought a Harmon Kardon TC 30 which is really a Logitech (looks like a 550 Advance but with a full color LCD screen). Absolutely love it. Load software on your computer, connect online and go through a simple set-up to load up your components rather than having to individually...

    Brand of Rotors

    Love those Power Slots! They are slotted only; I didn't go with drilled since I was advised the drilled can't be turned.

    Cordless tool opinions

    After having Ryobi (the battery died too) and Makita, I went with Bosch. I opted for the 24v combo with a drill driver, 7" circular saw and flashlight (whoopee!). I love its power and smooth and quiet operation but the 24v batteries get heavy, especially when driving screws in the ceiling. I...

    O.T.: Refrigerator RANT

    Not to dampen your day any more, you might prepare yourself for a repair that could take longer. We have a built-in 42 inch Kitchen Aid that stopped chilling after 4 years. A factory authorized tech came out, found a leak in the refrigerant lines, soldered it and recharched. A week later it...

    OT: Home Alarm Systems

    I pay $24.95 per month with Alarm Center for my house. Someone once advised me to go with a smaller company since the big ones like ADT get a high volume of activity at their central alarm station since they sell so many accounts. Alarm Center calls within 2 minutes of a false alarm and calls...

    Tonneau cover lock

    Hey Todd Z, Any suggestions/procedure to removing the old cable assembly? I've bought a replacement from Rusty but too chicken to just twist off the old one. Yes definitely stretched since I have about 3/8" slack at both ends. I've been opening the tonneau by sticking my thumbs into the...

    Home/Office Network Printing Question

    I have an HP 6110 print copy scan fax and love it. The newer models have Bluetooth (no cable to print) and wish I could have waited.

    anyone with kids: Carseat question in sport trac

    My 7 year old doesn't need the booster anymore, the 3 month old in a Graco Snugfit and mommy in the middle since they want the company back there. The 73 lb mutt sits in the bed with half the tonneau open when its dry but next to me in the front on towels in a harness when it rains.

    Who do we have that is a Lawyer? Have a question if you have a moment please.

    I opted in to a Special Rates Settlement for a rate dispute from 20 years ago when the Reagan Administration thought engineers and architects did not deserve higher rates than General Schedule and stopped step increases until salaries were equalized. The Court felt otherwise and ordered the...

    Hey---Is Arizona all dirt & cactus or??????

    I had two projects that kept me commuting to Phoenix for 7 years. My client had a second office in Prescott and a good friend was attending Embry Riddle Aeronutical University there. While it is a slower pace than Phoenix, its a good 20 degrees cooler. Conrads pic is says a lot but I also...
