My grandpa used to say that a good drying is always better than a bad wash..

Possibly the saddest ending to any movie out there..

@OB1: The poster is right, though Guy-Manuel is indeed spelled wrong.

Nice writeup. If it ever snowed in Oregon I'd be rolling snow tires. So far though, an inch or two of snow a year does not justify spending a grand on snow tires on an already capable audi quattro for that one day. I'll just stay home if needed.

@CUL8R: I had a phone, Palm Treo running Windows Mobile, that did not have an "off". There was an "airplane mode" and that's it. I always thought the "airplane mode" was sufficient as there was not signals being sent. At this point it was basically the same as a digital watch. We don't need to turn those off..

I have some sort of an OCD issue with leaving books open like that. When I was little I remember being told some sort of a superstition or something about if you leave a book open, the point/moral/contents/or whatever will escape from the book and make it worthless. I know that sounds weird, but to this day I cannot…

I think you missed the point. DeLorean, back in its day was not an exotic super car. It was not very fast in comparison to the rest of worlds automotive fleet, nor was it particularly good looking. And it was available in the states. How many of these can I go out and potentially buy today? The two pickups and the…

@TimTim: Yea the bench thing at a school parking lot was right by my house.. If I remember correctly they said it was a pickup truck of some sort and was going ridiculously fast and sliding around the parking lot with a sled or something behind him with a rope, slinging the kid around.

How is clicking "Start" to shutdown counterintuitive? You want to "Start" the shutdown process..

@Geckotek: WD40 and PB Blaster are penetrating oils and not lubricants. Oil != Lubricant. I prefer lithium grease for a lubricant around the house or cars..

@\m/ chaosphere \m/: Well that depends on what you're trying to lubricate.. though once you can use semen as a lubricant, the need for that has most likely passed..

@murtadi007: PB Blaster works better then WD40

Well, technically the Qualcomm MSM7627 that's in the Droid Devour, BB Curve 8530 and Palm Pixi is also a dual core, though the cores in that are split up by function..

@Интернет космонавт: Estonia was not part of Russia. It was part of USSR. There's a HUGE difference, thank you very much.

@vitorgatti: I completely agree. Drag and Drop FTW!

The same exact thing happened in Estonia a couple of days ago, when the Tallinn to Narva/St Petersburg highway showed in. Here's a link to a bunch of photos on an Estonian news site of it: [www.delfi.ee] #tips

Knight Riders "Turbo Boost" has my vote.

@tempesjo: Totally. Needs more erector set wings for down force, to keep it on the dyno.

A $1 check from Google would make a great decoration, framed, hung up on the wall. A friend of mine did that with a 27 cent check from a previous employer, another multi billion dollar corporation.

I think the quiet ones are more effective anyways. Like the Corona ads, with just some calm waves or crickets. Makes you stop and look why it got so quiet all of a sudden..
