@Frisbee: i see what you did there with the crack. nice :)

the blooper with the trolling motor was hilarious. made me LOL at work, which is a bad thing to do when it's so quiet in our room.

@gibson_se: well, it's hard to find enough road to get up to 88mph. That and plutonium is a little hard to come by.

@TekWarren: I agree. Everyone has a sense of entitlement. TSA doesn't need more headache, especially that kind.

@savage3006: aw man. I haven't put on my grammar police cap in a long time, but I have to do it...

World Vision is a great organization.

@DarCowAlways: hmm, maybe he should have chosen C2 as the successor to cherry then. pretty interesting observation. i wonder if there's any merit to it!

is there an easy way to convert my dvds to mp4 for iphone? easy as in 1 click conversion for the lazy people? Right now i'm able to convert .avi to .mp4 with encodehd.

@b0bcat: how long to tubes generally last?

I want one! Wish they would have chosen non-chinese roman font for the volume though. And they could have skipped the "Tube Amplifier" text since the tubes are prominently displayed.

@infmom: use crashplan to backup your stuff! It's great. been using the free version for half a year.. bought their online 3year unlimited on the 31st.

@Zinger314: well, it was ok in college. I had the imac girl as my wallpaper for a while.

@mediaphile: thanks for the olive oil tip! Will try it out next time.

glad to hear we have level headed, efficient, GTD people serving our country! Thank you Mr. Halloran

@Jason: my sentiments, too.

don't forget about the GoGoStand! [gogostand.com] wallet sized iphone/ipod/droid stand.

@Terry Trent: very nice!

@envador: update... just downloaded. great app! already downloaded the malls we frequent so they'll be ready. the missus knows her way around the malls like the back of her hand (cry) but I don't, so this is great for me.

It'd be nice if they could do the you-are-here for outdoor malls that could get GPS reception.

Thanks for the post LH! been looking for a wow-i-learned-something-cool-today tidbit of info all day.
