We have a 10 gallon tank of guppies. They do remarkably well, even not being fed over the weekend. And while its true that if you mix males and females, you get a gazillion guppies, they do stop reproducing after a while. The tank reaches a point where nature kicks in and they just... stop. They gradually get smaller,…

I'm kinda handy... maybe I'll look into taking an old coffee pot heating element, some sort of water agitator and the necessary electrical bits and make one of my own. Then again, my company has been looking for a new product to produce and something like this would be perfect. Hmmm.

@AmphetamineCrown: I'm going to try that. I recently bought a grill that has a side "infra red" burner and I absolutely LOVE it. It gets hot like the fraking sun. I've been experimenting withthe best way to use it. Whether to sear meats first, then slowly cook them with indirect heat, or slow cook first, THEN sear…

@thinkerer: Thank you for that link!

How long before we see an x-ray with one of these shoved up someone's rectum?

I just installed it and while its cool, when I tried to cut and paste the link to this article... I found I couldn't.

On the main page where they show the red cap holder... is it my imagination, or does it look remarkably like a penis? A happy penis, but a penis none the less.

It suuuuuure would be nice if we had T-Mobile service here in good old 52722 area code. *grumble grumble*

@hmphargh: Thank you, I just got it fixed. It was a pain in the ass especially with the error box coming up every second or so, and I'd have to click back on the cmd window, type a letter or two in, click the box. Argh! God that was painful.

@hmphargh: I'll give it a shot. I'm having a hard time navigating to the desktop where I created the folder. *sigh*

BE CAREFUL! I just tried this and have now put my main login into a repeating loop of my [explorer.exe] failing, restarting, failing, restarting etc. Starting in safe more doesn't work. Going back to the last known setting does not work. System restore does not work. I made a new admin account so I have access, but…

When more netbooks have HDMI outs so I can stream my HD movies through them, I'll be more interested. Why don't more netbooks have HDMI out?

@Whitson Gordon: Thank you, thank you... tell your friends. I'll be here all week.

Instead of using a bobby pin, use the magnets from the shower curtain. Place one *inside* the tie and another under your shirt and they will clamp together, thus holding your tie in place. :)

This sets a GREAT precedent. Sadly it took a class-action suit which means that no one who really was harmed by Comcast will actually receive any meaningful compensation. Well, the lawyers will receive VERY meaningful compensation.

They say they have 3G in my area, and my phone's little icon says its 3G, but I'll be damned if it actually is. I go to other cities that have it, Chicago for example, and the difference in speed is astounding. I think in my area they just tell the towers to send out the 3G "signal" but in reality is the Edge network…

FYI - This song is currently FREE from Amazon!

I was sure that was Taylor Swift when I first saw this. Yum.

@pz: I don't know that you CAN read Kindle formatted books on the Microsoft e-book reader. But if you have MS Word and/or Windows Mobile you can read their .lit format books. And if you have Word, they have a free conversion tool that let's you convert .txt, .rtf and html files into .lit. Of course I would never…

Or, um... people could just use the free Microsoft e-book reader that's been out for many years for both the PC and Windows Mobile. I've used both for years. #kindle
