I do occasionally miss out on stuff because I am not connected anymore, but it has really simplified a whole bunch of things for me. I have email, twitter, and a phone number so I imagine people can get ahold of me if they really wanted to talk to me.

Hey now, this isn't Lifehacker...

I've had them last a while...just long enough until I forget about them (and making sure they stay suctioned) and then bolting awake at 3am when all my bath stuff goes crashing into the tub.

Do I have to have one of these if I just want to lick the wall anyways?

I have an Evo 4G as well and the best application I have found was Juice Defender. You can schedule auto on/off so that data turns off unless you are actually using the phone (the main time you'd want to use data anyways).

I quit facebook cold turkey on Thanksgiving (no pun intended) and it has been pretty damned refreshing. Work gets done faster, life is more simple, and it pushes me to really contact those who I care to talk to.

This probably also has something to do with their slow erosion and ending of the Sprint Premier program. A lot of people signed contracts expecting phone upgrades each year instead of two years and instead got the shaft.

That's one of them, but even the no-name ones work well. As long as it requires you to wet the screen and uses a squeegee you'll almost never have bubbles or lint under the protector.

Very true, but I don't usually pay full price for those types of accessories anyways so it always turns out in my favor. At the least I keep the phone as a backup.

I always put a screen protector on and the device in a case so that I can sell it later for higher resale value. The best kind to buy are the ones where you have to wet the glass and use a squegee

How about you take pictures of it once you take it out of the carton and put it on an actual plate. Presentation is everything and of course it looks worse in the black grocery packaging than on the plate on the cover.

I'd be fine with that, but the irrational fear of any type of radiation has all but killed any implementations of the nuclear age.

I know that spray fields are legal because I live in a major agricultural area where they spray "chicken fertilizer" on fields to raise hay and other stuff. But that fertilizer isn't raw; it's treated much in the same way that sprinkler-type septic tanks use chlorine and other chemicals to treat liquid human waste and…

Any farm that sprays raw animal waste are either doing so illegally or sell themselves as an "organic" farm. I'll take industrial fertilizers over raw animal waste any day.

Provide that evidence please. E coli and bacteria are found on all living matter, and they grow and multiply naturally as the living matter breaks down/rots. That is why everyone is advised to cook their meats to certain temperature. That includes top cuts of steak down to hamburger meat.

In a day that anything not white breast meat chicken or ribeye is considered by-product, I can't help but think that these types of articles are sensationalist reporting.

Texas here, and I just said tin foil yesterday!

Very true, and it also makes the price per cup even lower.

That's why I also mentioned cleanliness, convenience, and ease of use.

It may be more expensive for the K-cup cup for cup, but when all you want is a single cup of coffee (that is also convenient, clean, easy, etc), you end up losing money by throwing out the rest of the pot.
