I have coworkers who cancel Comcast TV service, go to stream only mode and then come back because they constantly go over the data caps or slow speeds on the lower cost Internet only offerings. For me it is simpler to eat the slightly higher costs of using the hated Comcast but get everything I want on one remote and…

buy a generic case and leave it in your suitcase. It should remind you as you pack to grab your mouth guard.

To each his own. I have three cast iron skillets. One only ever has cornbread in it, the other only eggs, the third is everything else that is not the first two or boiled. All started their life in my home by cooking only bacon for months.

I have been in Uber’s with charging cables and bottles of water. Even if I don’t use them, it is an upgrade to the experience. I rode an Uber for an hour south of DC last month and it would have been nice to have a full charge upon arrival at my hotel. Upgrades get tips, because they go over and above. I pay for a…

Two quick things - Denny’s is a crappy restaurant - NOT a diner, I have never heard that Over Easy means the egg whites are cooked. If so, then they all need to go back. I see people quite often with over easy eggs and must quell the retching reflex as the not set egg whites spill over their plates. When I was a diner…

We disagree what “a lot” means. I see plenty of articles about three ingredient drinks or will it sous-vide, but not “a lot” about real news. FWIW I get real news from other sites - here I look for Life Hacks.

This may be the whole what colour is this dress thing. To my palate, and many coworkers - yeah, I went and asked - Coke Zero and Diet Coke do not taste the same. IMO Diet Coke is vile and Coke Zero actually tastes like Coke.

Glad you, like so many others, enjoy your Sonos experience. I purchased two Play1's to get some audio in my room when watching TV. Had to purchase a Playbar to make that happen. I quickly grew weary of it losing its connection to my iPhone several times per day. When it worked, it was beautiful and I could see me…

FWIW I only use Apple Maps because of CarPlay. I vastly prefer Google Maps. I expect in another year or two, Apple Maps will have the features that Google Maps has now.

I enjoyed Sports Night and its brief run. I don’t watch much TV anymore. If I do, I will not watch anything until it has been on for three seasons. I am tired of watching (what I consider good) TV shows and not know how it was supposed to end.

I made many Sonic runs after work for my wife. One day she told me not to go. I was rather freaked out by this. I go home and found one of these on the counter birthing its first batch of ice. I don’t get it, she likes it. She’s happy, I am happy. Money well spent.

What is five hours of your time worth? Double that for the inconvenience maybe.

I have heard some good things about Sonos. Bought the Play1's last week. I am not understanding it. I cannot use all the apps on my phone that play audio, they do not hook up to my TV (without casting via my iPhone to my Apple TV). And the app loses the connection to my speakers. I don’t see my dropping another $700…
