Everyone gets old and eventually has to manage some sort of chronic pain, especially when you're a senior. Then about 5 years ago, I rationalized my view about pain as I watched my dog deal with temporary leg pain as he limped around without complaining:

Nice!

Two things:

Historically, the hearth (fireplace) has been a very important focal point, which you can find in Frank Lloyd Wright's homes. Furniture can be used as a focal point, but if it's small, it's an accessory and no one will focus on it — scale of your focal point matters a great deal.

If you like De La Soul, I sure hope that you got in on all of their free albums on MP3s, last Valentine's Day, and the mixtape — http://goo.gl/xvSQDI — they offered for free.

All of those work lamps with articulating arms, always fail me, as they eventually lose their ability to hold their position and come loose, even when you've tightened the pins.

Coordination is more than just paint. If you want to coordinate, you build a materials palette of the textures of your existing furniture, flooring, carpets and your desired paint and trim.

I use the microwave to produce the crispiest bacon.

So I had to bring this up, since we're on the topic. There is in fact a thing called Pheromone Parties. In this case, you're supposed to sleep in the same shirt for three days, which then gets bagged and members of the opposite sex smell each bag to rate your scent. If both sides agree upon each other, you have a…

Yes...it's called genetics.

They missed one.

Just a pretty graphic on its own. They should make a vinyl wrap of it, so that people can stick it on their fridge door. :D

Interestingly, egg prices began to soar towards the end of the year, and then suddenly they just plunged back to a normal range. Anyone else notice that?

I hardly drive, and my State Farm renewal rate increased yet again. So over a year ago, I switched to MetroMile. Forget saving a little...I saved A LOT.

Primary and secondary school, for the most part, was about thinking inside of the box. English, History, Science and Math were all about structured learning, to see the world in the way it was currently understood. Very few teachers cared to push students to critically collect and analyse information outside of the…

As is noted by the article, if you get the chance, I suggest going to O'ahu for the Honolulu Festival, in early March. It's a cross-cultural festival between Asian countries and Hawaiian culture, so you'll see dozens of Japanese hula clubs doing free performances in several locations. It all ends up with a parade…

I don't know...I've never run out of ink. But I think there's a felt pad on the inside, that is replaceable.

Several years ago, I decided to get a self-inking stamp, instead. I got tired of writing my address down, but I also didn't like the idea of feeling beholden to some charity.

"My point is that with economies of scale, this industry should be able to do this cheaper than I can."

I'm not stopping you from going DIY. When you build your own computer, it's always going to be cheaper, right?
