Definitely the best, though pricey. I had one stolen, so got a replacement (an XL). My wife wanted one too, borrowed my XL, then managed to break it somehow. Senz sent me an XXL for free without asking any questions - just had me send them the serial number from the old one. Fantastic customer support.

Any idea how tall these buildings would be if they were real? I suppose if that is the spire at Trinity Church in the shadows in the middle, the buildings would have only been in the 40-story realm, but clustered like that, and with a narrowed perspective, tough to tell.

Chris, do you ever ski resorts anymore? If so, are there any particular areas which hold a place in your heart?

We've been using Glacier as our disaster recovery backup at work for about a year, using Arq as the client. So far, no disasters, so haven't had to test recovery, but at the point where our building has collapsed in the big 'quake, speed of recovery and cost are non issues. We'll (those of us that are alive at…

What?? No Subaru listed? For shame! The Outback wagon is one of the best dog carriers around (Volvo wagon excluded as there is really no better). My '02 WRX wagon comfortably carried two adults, two kids and a dog, or two adults and three dogs.

I MISS MY WRX SO MUCH!!!!!

I bought an '02 WRX Wagon as soon as it hit US shores. It was my first Subaru, and I LOVED it. Last fall I bought a '10 Forester, cause I'm a family guy now and needed a new car. And we love it.

Funny. As a Mac user who has always had iDevices, I've never noticed much to complain about with iTunes. But then, I also like Safari. If they felt like a burden, I wouldn't use them. Fortunately, they're fine for me (most of my music at this point is cloud based anyway.

Goat Renter Guy, we're a lot like you, a little bit different.

Or you could spend $600 and get an amazing vaporizer. Not a work of art, but how many stoners are really buying water pipes to put on a shelf, admire, and discuss what the artist might have meant in the design of their pipe...

Dominic was fantastic, Hardtack pretty cool too. Beautiful death, huh?

That's what happens when you give an 8 year old both an iPad mini and a ukelele.

For my money, these are far closer to being "Nice Sweat Pants" than something which just looks like sweat pants. These trade the sweat pant looks, but don't sacrifice the sweat pant comfort....not even close to cheap though....

Sadly, all of it. And have for the past two years. But I realized this year that I don't like shopping that way much - I just wasn't thrilled with the presents I bought this year. Ease did not help assuage a sense of misfit.

Leaving your house? That sounds like a novel - and slightly painful - idea. I'll stick with doorstep delivery....if I'm going to avoid using a Ma & Pa store, I might as well use something super convenient ;-)

He lives around the corner from some amazing BBQ, a Trader Joes, and the main Mars Hill Church. Also only about 2 blocks from the canal connecting Lake Washington to the Puget Sound. Think his is the only house left in a 4 block deep swath of light industrial that runs from Ballard (where he is) to Fremont. All the…

If you have Amazon Fresh in your neighborhood, you can order a lot of Amazon.com items by midnight on Sunday and have them at your house by 6am Monday. I use it for last minute things all the time. My favorite was ordering a new printer at 11.45pm and hearing the delivery guy dropping it off less than six hours…

Meh. I suppose this is worse, because people have personal shit on their computers/phones/etc, but I remember retail being just this bad 20 years ago. We used to steal/break/fuck with inventory all the time.

If they are able to package it, with a kit lens, for $400, they have something that sells. Otherwise it is just more overpriced junk.

Three reasons for the Roku. The PLEX media client on the Roku is superior to the one on PS3. Um, it's smaller? And it is more energy efficient, therefor "greener". There you go; I never said they were good reasons, but there are three.
