It isn't NECESSARILY awesome. But it's also not necessarily something you could have done differently. Our "refund" is artificially inflated by the child tax credit. We can't opt to not have that withheld.

None of the drawers in our kitchen would work for this, unfortunately.

This hadn't occurred to me, but it makes sense. We already use one Gmail account for our Google Play purchases. So the account's already on our phones and tablets.

That's awesome!

Paint lasts longer if you transition it to smaller containers. You can keep house paint around for a long time if you pour it out of the 1-gallon can into, say, mason jars that seal up tight and have little room for air.

Our oldest is using a 7-year old laptop. It's fine for what he needs. I replaced it with a 3-year-old laptop for myself. It all depends on what you want to do with it and how good it is to begin with.

Top of the line laptops can last more than 5 years for most folks' needs. But you've got to pay the up-front cost if…

This idea makes sense for fish tanks where you don't want to empty the whole thing just to clean the goop of the sides. But a vase or bowl? If it's empty, why not use a bottle washer? This just seems like too much work for too little payoff.

I'm seeing a project before my next camping trip. This'll be fun for the kids, too.

Regarding question 2 - recycled paper egg cartons have a tendency to leak.

I found that it helped to be aware of the problem and to be conscious about it whenever I spoke. It got to a point when I, perhaps subconsciously, started recognizing a pattern, and I learned how to redirect my words to avoid the speech disfluency.

I also learned that, when speaking extemporaneously as when answering…

You can also do this with Tasker, if you already use it. WiFi gets turned on/off when I arrive/leave home or work.

Definitely the "no dishwasher" rule. One of our really nice non-stick pans got damage due to rubbing against the tines in the rack as the water pushed it up and it fell back down.

Also, if your a lady or a guy who happens to have been given a big engagement ring with a really pretty diamond - TAKE IT OFF before…

Meh. Given how royally messy upgrading to Box Sync 4 has been, 50GB isn't necessarily a selling point.

Heh. Point taken.

When did Windows start putting a task bar on each monitor? My version of Windows 7 must be out of date, because only my primary monitor has a taskbar.

Yep.

It's also important to know your vehicle. Toyotas, at least the two we own, use Dexron II transmission fluid in the power steering system.

The same concept can be applied to the number of home screens and widgets on Android. I pretty much settled on 3 home screens and a limited number of apps. Anything else is distraction.

Whether or not you need them for warmth probably depends on where you live. In Minnesota, it was always nice to have the extra layer.

Tasker can be set up to do the same thing as Smart Wifi Toggler - and that's probably what you did. It's what I did.
