It's too warm to make my Thyme and Time Again Slow-Cooker Beef Stew, and I don't have any pictures of it, but I'll hit the high points:

I'm another VZW Galaxy Nexus user. I'll give up my unlimited data when they pry it from my broken arthritis riddled thumbs, even if my I'm pretty sure Galaxy Nexus has a radio pulled out of grandpa's '68 Rambler American.

My question is: If I summon Mr. Mxyzptlk can I sen him away by requesting Kltpzymx?

My favorite type of wine is a white from Central Europe called grüner veltliner I'm sure I've paid more than $20 for a bottle, because it can be hard to find. Now I'm wondering if I could tell the difference between it and the $5 (sometimes as low as $2.50 for a case on sale and with rebate) Rex Goliath Pinot Grigio I…

I was half way through a post correcting you before I saw where you were going with this. [/Slow Clap]

Given the context I'm guessing that the greyhaired guy in the 5th picutre (incluing the top pic) is Sun Wukong, but my first thought was of Monkian from Thundercats.

I can't speak to larger birds, but our cockatiel LOVES "electronic dance music" especially House music. I'll put on one of the old Paul Oakenfold Radio 1 Essential Mix(es), some Timo Maas, or Daft Punk (I have noticed that he prefers Discovery and the Tron: Legacy Soundtrack to Human After All) and he will dance and…

I feel an experiment with a 200 degree oven, a box of Spanglers (http://www.spanglercandy.com/our-brands/candy-canes), and some Dixie cups coming on.

I have an idea for this, I'll try it and let everyone knows how it went tonight:

I was always partial too Speed Walker: Heel, toe, heel, toe!

VOTE: As with cameras, the best one is the one you have with you when you need it. So my vote is for: "Whatever pen happens to be lying around". It could be a Bic, a Papermate, or a Pilot, a MontBlanc or the no name brand with the triangle sides and the advertisement for medication I accidentally stole from the…

I picked up a pack of 12 at the Sam's Club just today. My favorite pens of all time. I prefer the V5 to the bolder V7 myself, but I'd take either one over any pen you'd care to offer. If I have any problem with them at all it's that if I stick them in my jeans pocket with the metal pocket clip outside it will…

Spectrum Brands (formerly Rayovac Inc.) makes Varta batteries so it is probably safe to apply the Varta results to Rayovac batteries. Personally, I am a big fan of Rayovac Platinum rechargeable batteries. They're made with the same process as the ever popular Sanyo Eneloops, but cost quite a bit less.

Like most people I stopped wearing watches (except for formal events) when I got a cellphone, but a couple of months ago I went back to it because I realized I wasn't keeping accurate track of time. Because, at my house, we use our phones or PCs as primary clocks we got rid of most of the regular clocks in the house.…

There are a few factors worth considering that spring to mind: How far do you sit from the monitor(s), what kind of work/play are you doing, and will the second monitor fit in your space?

This sounds fantastic for people where winter gets really cold. Does anyone have suggestions for keeping my Georgia garage from being ridiculously hot?

So you need this one then.

"you can't latch it again unless the battery is placed in the right direction."

Oxo Good Grips locking tongs. I use them so often I had to get a few extra pair so I wouldn't need to stop in the middle of cooking to wash them. I've got a the 16" for my grill, three 12" in the kitchen (Two Nylon and one stainless), and the salad tongs too. If I had to pare down to just one I'd keep the 12" nylon…
