I'd pay money for an app that puts the menu on the application window instead of the top of the desktop. This is one of those bad decisions apple made very early in mac development and they haven't fixed it yet :(

Jeri has been a hero of mine for some time. Super smart, Super hot and a little bit crazy.

I climbed on that n900 deal like tiger woods on a cocktail waitress! thanks guys!

@fleebailey33: I second the "ripit" vote for mac users. It is maybe a little slow, but it rips everything out there and is updated pretty regularly. Also the cost is something like $20 or $30 bucks which beats all the commercial windows packages to hell. Here is the url: [thelittleappfactory.com]

Free yachting magazine... because all those yacht owners are having trouble making ends meet.... :P

@PhilFR: Fry's electronics uses a single queue/multi checker setup. It is a huge freaking line, but it moves very fast and noone gets stuck. I much prefer it to other places where I, without fail, get behind someone who wants to count out $10 in nickles, dimes, and pennies

I usually use a pencil so Torado by retro 1951 is great... the 0.9mm pencil lead isn't as thick as it sounds. Failing that I like a pentel p205 0.5mm mechanical.

@XandraMemnon: Mr Rodgers having tats and being a sniper are all hoaxes... see [[urbanlegends.about.com]]

I'm a big fan of welsh rabbit... the tasty alternative to grilled cheese.. I use a sharp chedar on one piece of bread and put it under the broiler... it's basically an open faced grilled cheese. yum...

@prosonik: Canadian? That explains it... Only the country that calls ham bacon would decide it's a good idea to put ketchup on a grilled cheese :(

@fredcadete:

I've got two words for you: "otter pops": the "crack" of summer time foods.

this makes me think of that demi moore film "indecent proposal".

@Digitallysick: I don't think anyone has suggested using just a checksum. Everyone is saying use the MD5 sum which is a cryptographic hash of the image—this can't be forged (at least not with today's technology).

@Greg Diebel: I'm a bit baffled by that remark. I see people taking photos of other people in eating establishments all the time.. nothing wrong with that, and nothing wrong with taking a snapshot of your meal—I often take a quick shot of my meal and send it to a friend—taunting them with what they aren't going to…

@Humbuzz: Yea, I like that rack as well. Where did you get it? Looks like it would be nice to organize my cable modem/router-hub/external hd/etc...

@lina_zav:

"you drop your web login credentials for tools like..." So you are sending login info over non-secure SMS? @_@

@chilie: Same here.. I've been doing this for about 9 years now. Works like a charm... If I get a poluted email address I forward it back to webmaster@sitethatleakedmyaddress.com and let them deal with the torrent of spam they unleashed on me :)

I don't understand all the buzz around chrome. Google had some great ideas but really dropped the ball on the implementation. I still can't get chrome to work/update correctly behind my corp's firewall—and I don't think there is anything exotic about the firewall. Don't read this as an endorsement for IE either.
