What about a Bond ETF? is that what he’s talking about?

Don’t rely on the home inspector! They sometimes technically can’t say “this is wrong or bad”.. they only recommend you have someone look at it. So, they are basically useless. Kind of a waste actually. If they see a hole in the roof, they say “the roof is old, have a roof guy look at it”. So, a lot of time a really…

I tried the local extension and a 'master gardner' site. The local extension told me to just go to HD and ask them (which, of course, was useless). The previous owner put in the wrong kind of grass in the back. The front is just basically dirt with whatever wants to grow. However, there are small patches of grass…

Step 1. Do not live in the SF bay area or NY City...

Well said. As a 20+ UX veteran, a lot of people and companies misunderstand the concept or the skills (and thought process) required. I truly believe good UX designers need the educational foundation of psych or similar. A few UI design classes, because you think it's cool, do not make a UX designer. Oh, and all…

Perfect timing! The door was ordered and coming next week.. Thanks!

Look a little closer. The prices aren't as bad as you think. I think I've read that all the extra 'stuff' like pillow top etc. are not really needed or desirable with an 'air' bed. I think the entry level compares pretty closely to a decent regular mattress now. I like the flexibility that it give me depending on…

I think you summed up what i was thinkign. Your definition is the best so far. Arrogant people "think" they know things and talk about them. Confident people know what they know and don't know and only talk about things they know about.

Great site for the Smokey Mountain... http://www.virtualweberbullet.com/

I personally use the Diet Coke factor. It's been super reliable across the US and in Europe. And, the variance at different locations can tell you how much a vendor at a popular location might be ripping you off.

I still want the black bar back! (not the hack.. that messed up other stuff). Please let me decide how many and what items i want at the top please!

Vinegar did NOT work for us. And, just covered up the smell for a while (with vinegar smell). Doused the area with Nature's Miracle many times too.. no luck there. Oxy, nope. Many shampoos with combinations of the above, nada. What DID work was Fizzion. I swear, this was the only thing I ever tried that actually…

Huge find for me. I don't normally promote products but... for pets (read Cat pee) issues. I've tried everything. Try Fizzion! Nature's Miracle did not work. I 'soaked' things in the stuff and it still didn't really work. Then I tried Fizzion - I think it's promoted by the Cat guy on tv. It actually works!!…

I've been using this since the beta. (6 months or more?). And it's been perfect for what i needed. It was a perfect replacement for "live mesh, foldershare,etc". Some of the beta versions had issues with my company vpn/firewall, but it's been perfect ever since they fixed it. I started used it before BTSync came…

See my comment. When I was a bartender I wanted to see the money (mostly when it was busy). I didn't care if they flashed it in my face. It told me this person knows what they want and are ready to go. I don't want some idiot to ask me what the specials were (they're on the board) or what I recommend, etc.

I don't know. I was a bartender for a few years. The person with their money out is going to get served first. It was a busy bar and I didn't have time to wait for someone to fumble around for money after they get their drink.

I agree.. Location, Location, Location! In housing, that means school districts. When I bought my first place. I picked location over house. I was single with no kids. I chose a (slightly larger) townhouse in a great location over a single family home in an ok neighborhood. Everyone said.. "buy a single family…

One word - Freecycle !

And, for a perfect finish, be sure to wash the roller cover before use to remove any stray fuzz. If using latex, the damp roller really won't be much of an issue.

One thing I did learn from a friend that worked at a "real" running store was that there is a point where the $$ will no longer buy you anything better. I'm not sure what that number is today but a bunch of years ago it was in the $70-$80 range. However, there was a big difference in the technology/materials in…
