I live in South Carolina. Where do you all get these snow tires? We have an inch of snow outside right now - the biggest snow so far this year ( we got a half inch one day last week) The roads are fine - maybe a bit of glaze in a few places. But it will all be gone this afternoon. And that too fast for conditions law…

1. Figure out what kind of company you want to work for and what geographic region you want to live in FIRST!

I shave in the shower - as I have a beard, just my neck and maybe twice a week. I have been using a cheap dollar store suction cup holder for years (Yep, it actually cost a dollar) - I don't remember it ever falling, or the razor ever accidentally being knocked out of the holder - I suspect part of the reason is my…

Spend less than you make. Sounds simple doesn't it? But I see people every day who are whining about how they just can't save any money, while driving a new car, wearing new clothes, going out to eat or to a bar 4 or more times a week and having the latest electronic gadgets. But if you try to show them where their…

Contrary to what most advertising says - most of the time you really don't have a choice - you get what your employer gives you. Whatever that is. The insurance companies are for profit companies and pay as little on your medical bills as they can get away with while charging as much as they can for premiums.

Another big win for the terrorists.

My watching of NFL has dropped way off since they started forcing cable only. I don't have cable - and Watch what little TV I do see OTA. It looks like pro football is going to go the way of pro baseball for me. I was once a big baseball fan, but quit watching ( I didn't even watch the world series this year) after…

Completely misrepresented title - The article was absolutely not about what women think of men wearing fedoras, but about men affecting outlandish exaggerated chivalry - whether they wear a fedora or any other kind of hat is irrelevant to that discussion. Maybe some kind of perceived 'fedora personality" affected by…

I worked at a company where they brought 25 Engineers to South Carolina from Vermont. ( great guys, loved working with them) We had a 2 inch snowfall and they laughed at us - but two of them ended up in a ditch coming to work. In Vermont, they have these things called snow plows, and they salt the roads to cut down on…

1. Atlanta & Birmingham's problems were ICE not snow. Many Yankees don't understand that it usually rains, then freezes and then there is a thin layer of snow on top of the ice. During the day, it warms up and the snow melts then refreezes into black ice. Just because you THINK you know how to drive in snow (when it's…

I like it - the motor driven feature is a fun addition, but not really needed for those that just want a simple secret compartment.

I knew a Bengals cheerleader - she worked as a waitress in a place I hung out. Very good looking and vivacious personality. But the cheerleading is way underpaid and way too demanding for what they get. She quit after 2 seasons because she said it was costing her more than she was making. How do the teams justify…

How to cook in self defense. Someday, you may have to actually cook a real meal, not just heat something in the microwave. Learn at least one full meal that you can actually cook well to impress someone with. Mine is cheap, easy and delicious and takes just a half hour to make. - cube steak, rice with homemade gravy…

Secret compartment FTW

I am a homeowner. My home is not an investment it is my home. I live here. I spend a lot of time here. I want to look nice and to function properly. I make improvements based on what I want and not on what some investment guru says will improve it's value. I like to believe it is worth more now than when I bought it,…

Whenever I hear, "No offense intended, but..." I know that they do intend to offend with what they are about to say. And they know it and are trying to weasel out of taking responsibility for their own words.

The video is from Parts Express. These guys know speakers as they have been in the speaker business for many many years.

I keep a half inch wide natural fiber paint brush in the cup with my pens and pencils - for brushing between the keys on my keyboard.

They make it confusing on purpose. They can make more money if you really don't know the ins and outs of each plan.

Better still, bypass the recruiter and HR people altogether if you can. Instead, find a way to get your resume directly into the hands of the person who will be your direct boss at the company you want to work at. He never sees most resumes because they are filtered by people who really don't know what he actually…
