    WeatherTech mats

    I am about to purchase yet another set of WeatherTech mats. I really like these mats for a variety of reasons, so the purpose of this post is not to find an alternative. Rather I am seeking people who have purchased these mats and inquire as to their vendor of choice. I have purchased from...

    Happy birthday Rabbi

    or Whaler or... You're probably too tired to read this but hope you had a good one anyway. :)

    CMA Talk 2011

    Footloose...really??? I don't get the fascination with Brad and Carrie. He's funny...she's not. He's talented...she's not. But I did enjoy Bocephus' appearance and self satire (I guess that was what that was supposed to be - first thumbs down goes to the writers). Then we get back to back...

    Permanent Marker Removal

    Anyone have any first hand experience with this problem? The surface is texture plastic (think headliner surround trim). My initial thought are products such as Goof Off or Goo Gone. The area is not a small isolated mark, but rather large. The truck drive must have thought it a good idea to...

    Glass Cleaners (only bulk items need apply)

    As you may or may not already know, I have long been a fan of Hope's Perfect Glass. 1) IT WORKS 2) It's locally available 3) It is reasonably priced when purchased in the 32 oz. refill bottles. But I've got a pending project where I'm going to need more product at a better price point and...

    Good to see fellow forum member JP

    online. In light of the devastation in your home state, glad to see you came out on the other side. From the news report I saw on a local station, Alabama seemed to take the hardest hit in terms of lives lost.

    News Flash: ACM's Las Vegas

    Carrie Underwhelming just got out-sung and out-danced by sexagenarian Steven Tyler. Good gracious girl, you can't dance, never could and probably never will. Just stand there and try to concentrate on singing. In other news, Jennifer Nettles is still H-O-T and can sing.

    GPS Car Units

    After searching it appears that the last time this topic was discussed in any depth was JP's thread back in '09 and his interest was specifically hand held, so....what say you? From what little research I've done, it appears that Garmin and Tom Tom are the 2 most recommended brands. I'll admit...

    The greatness of the Super Bowl

    may end with the game itself, but getting to the game is high on my list as a football fan! All the pre-game shows are really enjoyable. Just finished Inside the Rings w/ T. Aikman, J. Bettis, D. Brees and K. Warner. Very interesting inside perspectives. Pulling back the curtain so to speak...

    Automaker marketing

    slogans and etc. This is one of the current TV commercials that both Mrs. Clean and I enjoy. This is, (IMO, of course) an excellent examply of identifying a consumer segment and coming right at them, literally head on. Very minimal, I can't imagine there was much in production costs (ie. no...

    Kettlebell training DVDs

    Yeah, I know I'm way off-topic here, but I know we have a diverser membership and this might very well be a topic someone here is well versed in. Basically, I'm looking to add to some diversity to my workout routine and am considering kettlebells for numerous reasons. Thus, I am looking for a...

    Snow!

    Texas (parts of) has joined the rest of the country. Not quite cold enough for it to stick to paved surfaces, but rooftops and lawns are mostly covered by the white stuff. It is blowing horizontally right now and forecasters are suggesting it may stick around until tomorrow a.m. If the temps...

    Things (and people) that tick me off

    and the list seems to grow, but one of the more annoying are the seemingly endless list of people who butcher the singing of the national anthem. Most often it is because they try to trick it out and it just doesn't work. It is a tough song to sing, and sing well but if you take on the task...

    New Years traditions

    Got any? Food? Football games? etc. This struck me as I munched on an early bowl of black-eyed peas that Mrs. Clean had prepared. Black-eyed peas is a staple food around here, but especially for New Years Day. The recipe changes slightly, but basically, 1) 10-16 oz. pkg of dried peas, 2) @...

    RIP Don Meredith

    or Dandy Don as some called him. A native son from Mount Vernon, TX who played his collegiate ball at SMU and his pro ball with the Dallas Cowboys. Many will recognize him from the early days of ABC's Monday Night Football. You will be missed.
