Kudos for a well-presented video that should be clear for many of the non-technically minded. I've taught aspects of computing off and on since the 1980's, and there is always a need to have clear easy instructions and media in your arsenal, as you never know what level of instruction you will have to give.

πόλλ' οἶδ' ἀλώπηξ, ἀλλ' ἐχῖνος ἓν μέγα ("the fox knows many little things, but the hedgehog knows one big thing") -Archilocus, ancient greek poet, and popularized by philosopher Isaiah Berlin.

Diatomaceous earth. Many of the commercial companies that go organic use this product. If food grade, it is safe to put even where children and pets are present. We used it last year, and while it took a few weeks for all the ants to disappear from within the finished basement, we have not had any since.

For some people, the debt problem arose because they couldn't handle their cash flow when they had it. While we all have different predispositions, we have to get a handle on what cash flow we can handle without making bad decisions (like the post-paycheque "party").

You don't have glasses, do you? If I put mine across the room, I might not be able to find them in the morning.

The Signature idea is great! I'll implement.

My wife stages houses and gets rid of all kinds of smells (paint, must, etc) by using a large bowl of water with onion halves in it. Never failed yet, and the onion smell does not linger at all, even 5 minutes before the open house.

No problems ever with RBTray on both Win7 and XP. So I'll stick with it until something happens.

Rats, I was waiting a generation to see if the rice in salt thing would become an "old-wives' tale" where many people did it, but had forgotten why.

My local Goodwill store or church rummage sale almost always has a dry air popper for sale at $3 or so. They work excellently, use bulk popcorn., so the cost is way down.

I was having a bit of fun. I've heard too many people assume it had to be "eat all the hay first", then the water, or vice versa.

Or, you can nibble the hay, come back to the water to wash it down, rest, groom, eat, drink, etc.

Lorem Ipsum is a convention used to add a placeholder to a document, before the text is there. For example, if you know you will be putting in a sidebar with some information, you would create the text box to the eventual size, choose the font and type style, and instead of filling it with a draft, you would choose

Works well for floating floors (laminate) as well. After renters, I discovered that they had broken a chesterfield caster, and put a number of gouges and scratches into the laminate.

Shortcuts that I automatically delete

I started installing apps to c:\apps because I hated the length of "Program Files" (and the space in it). So my programs are always categorized by function. I also know htat some apps are so registry-heavy and I'll never move them (like MS products), so they stay in Program Files, and I never have to look at them.

Why solving the controlling the phone in your pocket thing is important for guys:

I had to send it back—My loonies got stuck! (Canada)

"The fox knows many little things, but the hedgehog knows one big thing" - Isaiah Berlin, from Archilochus.

I use my hottub almost every day (thank you, says my spine), and I love to read there, so while I'll likely wait til the price comes down a bit, the concept is very good.
