@ArleenCabango: Because that is an everyday occurrence like dinner. Use your brain. There are circumstances where taking a call, under emergency circumstances is understandable, but you better make sure the people you're with understand that.

It is never acceptable to put your attention anywhere other than the people you're currently with. This is at dinner and other events. Sitting with someone else and texting/email or even just taking phone calls is just rude. Turn off your phone for an hour. The world will not end because you were out of touch.

ServiceMagic gives you at least three contractors to get estimates from. Great resource.

She made 5 recipes with one chicken and had 17 servings total. Depending on your household size... YMMV

@gt0163c: If you own property your family will have to get rid of when you're dead, you might want to have enough life insurance to cover the mortgage. You should also have enough to cover funeral expenses and perpetual care on a gravesite if you're not scattered ashes. Make sure your funeral arrangements are…

A daily dose of Alavert does the trick for me.

Be aware, if you do this and share Google Reader articles with anyone, you'll have to re-add them.

This can be very dangerous with certain medications so you should definitely talk to your doctor first!

@OrganizedFellow: We're already getting 15% off our family plan for my husband's company (Starbucks). The point is not to change from a shared $100 plan to a single $70 plan for the discount. It will end up costing us $40/mo more than what we pay currently (average) and cost an additional $960 over 2 years. No…

@Yanguang: @RayKinStL: It's very tempting but it's behind a couple of other things on the purchase list, including a new roof. Damn responsibility.

I'm currently on a family plan with a MyTouch and G1 between the two of us for approximately $100/mo for both. I'm not willing to give up my rate plan for the phone and I'm not spending $530 for the privilege of keeping my current plan either. We'll see which lasts longer, my G1 or the $530 price unsubsidized, or if…

@AtomFury: Lifehacker effect. Oops.

I call it using your brain. Most of those roads have signs including 'Not plowed' or 'Closed October - April' That might be a hint not to go down that road, no matter what the little computer on the dashboard thinks.

@NorwoodIsMyHero: iTunes for Windows. You can run it on Linux, but only with WINE, which kind of sucks.

You forgot the link to the hack?

And where would we get this information? I don't think I even know who invited me to Gmail or how long ago my account was created
