I'd love to have a deeper Billy bookcase with doors so I could put all the stereo equipment, cable box, etc in it. It would go along with the four Billy bookshelves we already have in the living room—full of books.

Since you regurgitated teabag talking points, you're not really in a position to point fingers.

Funny thing how the dim bulbs who say "like a business" think that cutting the "business's" income and massively increasing its outgo is the way to prosperity.

I've only lived in a house with a/c twice in my life (for a total of 8 years out of 60). Here are some of the things we do to stay cool:

Too many people say government should be "run like a business." It should be run like a government. Two entirely different concepts.

What business would you suggest the government emulate? Enron?

San Onofre, so prominently featured in the Naked Gun movie.

Nope, everyone.

Amazon made the really sleazy move of cutting off all its ad associates in California, so they could claim not to have any retail business in the state. Not that I ever made any money off their ads, but I still think it was a slimy way to do business.

You can save the queue by selecting it on the page (click and drag), copy-paste it into a Word document, or Print -> Selection.

Easy enough to get a laptop to use on a trip and then take it back and get your money back. I'm sure it seemed like an excellent idea to the customer, but the salesperson would…

Fry's return policy on laptops and memory is only 15 days.

It'd take a lot more than 99¢ to find an app that'd make my deadbeat relatives pay up.

Our house is entirely decent and has one bathroom. If the guests want their own they'll have to provide it.

Who the heck has a guest bathroom? In our house it's one for all and all for one, and the TP is stored on a shelf in an alcove that was once a standalone shower stall (people did things differently in 1930).

Make sure the wrench is set securely on the lug nut (this is important). Then very carefully put one foot on the wrench handle (this works with the single-handle wrenches, I've never tried it with the X shaped ones) and put your weight on it. For most people this will get the nut loosened up enough that you can then…
