Ok, so first, that is not what the man said. Don't get me wrong, I don't agree with Beck on video games. I figure crazy always finds a way and for some, their vehicle of crazy is video games. If it was not that, it would have been something else.

And I still have the disks.

If there is a magic bullet to being a landlord, it is in qualifying your tenants. Sadly, it is also the area where landlords spend too little time. Do full background checks and manually go through their rental application and call on all their references and previous landlords. For each call made, try to get the…

I was once a huge fan of Adam and the Mythbusters. Not so much since their Xfinity/Comcast commercial. I hope they got a high price for their souls. http://www.ispot.tv/ad/7T7Q/xfinit…

Or maybe they could pretty much stick anyone in that role and nobody would care. I doubt I would have even noticed one way or another.

I love when The Tech can help to set someone free from their limitations in the real world.

Please tell me that none of my tax dollars went to paying for this. So after raising 3 sons, let me suggest you A) educate and demonstrate the proper use of eating utensils and B) model proper eating behavior for your children whenever they misbehave in a culinary fashion. In my experience, cutting up the food for the…

"... like a weasel with paint-thinner on its nipples."

Start talking to her. If she does not punch you in the mouth, keep talking. If you then find you should pause to allow her to speak/answer/ask a question, shut up and listen. Rinse and repeat until one of you realizes what a horrible mistake it was to start talking in the first place or decide you would like to never…

I love lamp.

There are lots of reasons why buying a home can make sense. However, one of the biggest that so many folks seem to not mention is locking in your housing costs. Rents can rise, tenants can get evicted. If you can buy a home and lock in a payment you are comfortable with - then that is an expense ( a huge one for most…

Yeah. Its an interesting thing to go back and read something your wrote way back and wonder how the hell you even thought those words deserved to be in the same sentence. lol.. yeah, don't judge Scrivener by what I produce.

Yeah... I am a HUGE fan of Scrivener as well. I have used it for research, documentation and novel writing (heavy on the writing, not so much on the publishing) and it is fantastic.

Ok, flash mob idea. We all head to a starbucks, get in line and just start doing this.

Electrovoice RE20. Sounds amazing even in a room that has not been set up for broadcasting. Not great for a "Desktop" I suppose tho. While I have connected it directly to my desktop system and got ok performance, I use a mixer normally. So maybe not. If you want a born to be on the desktop Mic, the Samson C01U I had…

10 pounds of awesome in a 5 pound bag.

Somewhere on that list is checking the lifehacker feed. So theres that.

I think this is one of those situations where you have to find what works for you. In my case, I go with the idea on the premise that getting *something* started is better than over analyzing or delaying in trying to make progress. Do I sometimes find I have to back off and approach a problem in a different way or…

Totally... completely... with you. As others have said, Schulz was not a fan of his work being adapted in this way. Despite that, I am hot to see it done - right.

I think this might be not so much a case of cosplay, but rather a case of "I have been knocked into a dumpster by a half open bag of flour and this is the crap that stuck to me when I got out."
