Look at some of the richer gentlemen and look at their wives/girlfriends, money talks there is no other explanation. In particular if you look at some of their personalities. Can you say Donald Trump...

"If you can be with the one you love — Love the one your with" eh?

As long as it's not a roaring flame you won't have a problem. As a scout leader for 20 years, I've eaten many many brown bag breakfasts. You can also pop corn in a brown bag in a microwave btw. The bacon grease soaks the paper, but brown lunch sacks have additives in the paper that keep it strong and solid when grease…

Been a prime member for several years. I buy dozen's of items off amazon, subscribe & save stuff, etc. I bought a queen size mattress and it was delivered in 2 days for no extra charge. I have a kindle & kindle fire - use them all the time and read lots of books that are free to prime members. My LCD TV & several…

Automating your life if fine if you have spare cash. I can guarantee you that you are paying a significant premium for all that Amazon stuff. Some of it is ok .. but some of it very costly compared to local.

Told a story — reminded me of one of my favorite combat sci-fi series - Hammer's Slammers. The good guy usually (but not always won), not everyone survived, characters changed, evolved, it has a storyline that didn't depend on TIME TRAVEL to save everyone (though it did show on occasion). It never solved the…

Weird thing is there are multiple sides to this story. Compounding Pharmacies aren't governed by FDA but local state pharma boards.. but they fought FED regulation too. Then again there are a several stories about drug shortages because big pharma can't make obscene profits on them, alleviated by compounding…

current or discontinued? — These are are not around any more, but I built a ton of systems with Thermaltake Tsunami Dream cases — best I've ever used for capacity, cooling, each of use, built like a tank.

I cycle about 300 different photos, but this is my favorite - from NG collection

You & Steve are dead on right... I have screwed the pooch hundreds of times, if you haven't you are never going to succeed because you never try. You can't go through life afraid. I feel I am one of the best at what I do, but I've been a scout leader for 15+ years (a true and rewarding passion) and I always preach the…

Not to pick on Apple, every company has bugs on a new device, but wouldn't you think Wi-Fi on the biggest carrier in US would be something they would test extensively?? Additionally they would test in multiple geographical locations around wherever they were going to sell it. Just another (non-apple specific gripe)…

As a boy scout leader, I get this constantly from my scouts.. "Why do I have to learn how to read a map and use a compass, my phone has GPS" — one of my scout dad's has the perfect reply. He is ex-army and he explained, you learn to use a map because, while GPS is great, a map works with a bullet hole in it most GPS's…

Amen — buy my stuff from Amazon - organic fair trade - papa new guinea — 5lbs at a time. Separate out into quart bags, vacuum seal and freeze. Each quart lasts about a week stored in an air-tight ceramic container.. Grind and brew each time in a vacuum pot. Aeropress or other methods don't make enough.. I drink a lot…

I use 1/3 lb and press twixt 2-6" plates to make perfect round 1/2" thick patty... then put a small dent in middle w/your thumb to allow for swelling as it cooks. No smashing necessary.

He saved maybe 100$ bucks by getting the pallets(basically saved the 2x4's studding the walls), he spent 50$ of that on the hardware and had to drill a bunch of holes and make some pieces. Doesn't really make sense but then he got the pallets for free so he saved a little and kept them out the dump. As to strength —…

I am a IT service tech, so I do a lot of support work in the car when I am on the road. In the car I use a Bluetooth S4 Ant hands free speaker phone. Works good, other folks say they can tell I am in the car but sound fine. At home my cell phone can rings my desk/remote wireless phones via bluetooth or I can use it…

Amen — been doing that too since the late 80's .. all you got to do is make sure they are dry. I dishwash w/o the dry cycle, shake them out good and just let set a day or 2... works every single time.

I worry 'bout their sanity while I have to listen to their dings from each email that comes in, while the play their voice mail over their speakers, yell out their cell phone conversations, talk on speaker phone all the time because they are to busy surfing the web and on and on .... my KB is no doubt the real…

Amen Brother ... accept no substitute...

By far the most interesting and thoughtful article on this site in months or years. I feel heartbroken for these parents and it does put this world into a much more realistic perspective.
