The Bucket Bosses work great when you have a small project to do and know what tools you’ll need. Used mine 2 weekends ago when I installed a DVR surveillance system for the house. Keeps everything together when you start to get frustrated and start tossing tools in it because it’s the umpteenth time you’ve had to…

Just an FYI, you may want to wear a mask when handling DE. There is food grade, which I think the graphic is referring to. Industrial grade (which is used in many applications, such as pool filter media) contains a lot of silica dust which is very bad to inhale (was always told that your lungs can’t expel it once…

I’m in FL as well (southern portion). The company is based out of Cocoa Beach, if I recall correctly. It’s possible that they’re direct distribution area (?) might be only the southeast. Walmart.com seems to have a good price on OP products and you may be able to get it shipped to your local store.

+1 for Neutrogena.

I received 2 separate recall notices in the mail, about a month apart, at the beginning of the year. They were for my 2004 Dodge Ram 1500. I’m willing to venture a guess that it contains these airbags (just on the information regarding “high-humidity” environments in the recall notice).

That if I’m doing my job correctly, you shouldn’t even know I was doing it (IT support for a statewide company with multiple offices); That it’s impossible for me to know what your problem is and fix it immediately given the obscurely detailed message you sent (my computer isn’t working. I need it fixed now!); That I…

I pulled my vacuum apart once b/c I accidentally sucked up a gob of hair that got wrapped around the impeller (while doing so I said to myself “oh, good, easy access to the belt”). My dad came by and found me in garage with it apart and asked, “what in the hell are you doing?” I told him fixing the vacuum. His…

Is the $20 Asics men's shoe a mistake? I only see it avaialble for ~$60.

Hell, forget losing the lip balm: I’m guilty of leaving it in my jeans pocket and then letting it make it through an entire laundry cycle. At least the $20 won’t make a mess once it heats up in the dryer. Will definitely try this one out

That mashable link about Amazon Dash just redirected me to a “Computer Support” browser hijack page. Just an FYI ;)

Late 90's techno always did it for me when I was studying or working on labs for my Cisco certs. My personal fave was the original soundtrack from The Saint

I always think I have the same problem. Drives my wife crazy. Something you could try that I do: every time I fix or do something that usually would require someone else to do (paint the house, change the oil in my truck, replace an electrical fixture), I tally up the cost and put that aside. When I want to make that…

Letting my mind wander. By that I don't mean thinking about one thing and then focusing on something else. It's hard to explain, but letting my mind produce what seems like random thoughts (which usually manifest as people speaking randomly in my head). Eventually, I find myself drifting off to sleep...

Agree. I love camping, as it is my vacation away from the stress in my life: everyone else. However, I have to disagree about the best time being anytime. South Florida, Mid-August is not a very good time to be outside...

Again, don't want to come across as one of those that goes around jumping on incorrect information. As for music, I too have that engrained into the brain. Damn shame not one alternative song anywhere in that list.

+1 for HF. I've always used my cordless drill for everything (including drilling into concrete). After the last project, I decided to get a power drill (moreover a hammer drill). For the sporadic amount of work i actually will do, I picked up a cheap one (~$15). If it lasts me a couple of years, it's worth it.

It was actually in September of '97.

I haven't seen it, but if you mean Jason Clarke, you are correct. He was in a short-lived series on FOX called Chicago Code a few years back. I thought a really good series, but ultimately nixed...
