I use one of the spare trash can liners that's stored at the bottom of most trash cans in hotels.

I saw this version of the Green Monster back in the sixties:

I don't need to, it's working just fine.

Having more than one cat is a sign of mental illness.

I remember that all the "oh, so superior" people from Thinking Machines got the day off to go to the premiere.

Where I live, laundry chutes fall into the same safety category as elevators. When I remodeled a bathroom, we had to take a basic laundry chute out because it would have been so expensive to get it up to code.

Let me count the ways...Comcast just upgraded me to 60mb for no extra money, my phone service is now far more reliable than Verizon ever was, and I just enjoyed the best Winter Olympics coverage I can remember.

How do you get to the internet?

Amazon Prime has Perfect Bacon Bowls for $11.50! Too bad they didn't have that deal going for Valentine's Day!

It reminds me of what would happen to the Tin Man if the Flying Monkeys got him alone for five minutes.

That's what I said, he was a terrific huckster.

No, credit where credit is due. The people who started the desktop revolution should be recognized. Steve Jobs is deified and really, he was just a great huckster.

Ha! Me too. I cried once during a movie but it was because a dog died. Maybe I just don't like most people?

Wikipedia says, "The Boss 429 is arguably one of the rarest and most valued muscle cars to date." I have no idea what my father was thinking, but I learned to drive in a 1969 429 Mustang.

He's not unbreakable, the safety systems of the interior of the car were pretty well engineered though.

Easier than setting up a dual boot is just running Vmware's Vmware Player. You can load pretty much anything you want onto a virtual machine on the Vmware Player and the virtual and the physical machine can even share a folder so you can copy files back and forth.

He reminds me of Lee Harvey Oswald. I'm guessing the Russians are going to get tired of him in a couple of years and throw him back.

Personally, I'd kick up the price point to $600 to $700 and just get the best deal on the biggest laptop I can get from Dell. I've got two kids and I have bought six Dells over the last five years and they've all been very reliable. My kids throw their laptops in their backpacks most days too. I figure if I can…

or not...Use Google to search for "usb audio pops". Your mileage may vary but my Dell laptop, running Windows 7, creates loud "pops" every ten seconds or so when I try to use a USB port for audio. I started to look for fixes and quickly came to the conclusion that sending audio over USB is just a bad idea.

The really odd thing about email is that a lot of college age kids don't use it. College professors have to make a point of telling their students that they will be sending out notices via email and that everyone should check their email every day.
