I came here to mention Scrum's "3-9 people per team" guideline, and saw that you already had it handled.

Costco has coupons as well, which they send out once a month or so. They used to require the coupon to get the applicable coupon, but everyone hated that system, the cashiers used to just keep coupons at the register to scan for members who forgot them at home, customer service was busy issuing partial refunds for

Good call!

You know what'd be really slick? Go down to JoAnn Fabrics and pick up a foot of carpet that matches your car's interior as closely as possible, roll it around the foam, and either affix it with double-sided tape or put a few thick stitches in it. For a couple bucks more than just the foam, you can have a little

Lo and behold, here you are.

No, because eleven is one more. Her letter goes to eleven. It's an extra push over the cliff.

Seriously? This many people running to the defense of this ridiculous notion that headphones around the neck or on the head are a valid fashion/lifestyle choice? I'm with you, SteveInWI, if you're an adult and are taking part in a press conference or TV interview, just take the fucking things off for one minute.

I really like oil-based wipe-on poly as well. Layering on the coats is so easy: wipe on a layer, wait an hour for it to stop being tacky, wipe on another layer, wait an hour for it to stop being tacky, wipe on another layer...no need to wait for each coat to cure, sand between coats, etc.. If I'm going with a satin

I have 2 kids, and my little family of 4 is perfectly comfortable in our small-ish SUV (BMW X3)...but when my parents or in-laws visit, I do wish we had the space for everyone to pile in together.

I came here to say this very thing. I've had pizza for lunch, then we've taken the kids out for pizza for dinner; if I mention it to my wife, she gets all apologetic, and I have to reassure her that it's not an issue...usually it's the case that the pizza I had for lunch was a different type, but even if it wasn't,

This method is actually pretty common in India

Wow...I think the foundation of our disagreement is that you're woodworking on a much higher level than I am. You're using professional-grade stuff and have a cabinet shop, while I'm working solely with sub-$500 tools and had to google "cove cut" (I had no idea I could do that with my table saw...sweet!).

The problem with track saws is the price; the Festool TS55 goes for $600-650, the TS75 goes for $700-750. Even the DeWalt DWS520 starts at around $400 (and doesn't even come with a track, that's $100 more)!

Some of us use our vacation time to travel to where parents & relatives live, so they can see their grand kids & whatnot. That's not an "optional" thing that can be deferred a year.

Yeah, I wish I'd thought that through...right now I have a DeWalt 14v NiCad, a tiny old Dremel NiCad, DeWalt 20v Li-ion, and Milwaukee 12v Li-ion, each with its own charger.

I LOVE my oscillating multi-tool. I picked up a Milwaukee 12v li-ion cordless one from Home Depot a couple years ago, then they had a "buy a multi-tool, get a free battery, charger, and drill/driver" deal.

Based on the steel torque adjustment ring, that looks like a Makita 1/2" 18V Li-ion cordless...the thing looks pretty solid, and plenty powerful for a bigass hole saw:

"How awesome is it going to feel..." is the primary factor in keeping me marching forward with the combination basement-finish/cabinet-making/plumbing project I've gotten myself into. I'm constantly tempted to farm out the more tedious tasks (sanding/finishing), but I feel like that'll take away my ability to

Huh...I may have been looking at an older model of the OEM center console, it had dual cupholders awkwardly placed right where you'd rest your elbow.

Cupholders are included in the optional, aftermarket, subpar center console. Saleen appears to have done a much better job with it.
