    Brad Delp died!

    Holy crap! I just read this on CNN. Found dead in his home at age 55. No signs of foul play. I consider him to be one of the best voices in rock and roll back in the 70s, and I love Boston's music. Sad, that guy could sing. R.I.P. Mr. Delp.

    Job Offer

    Well, I have been considering a career change, and on Friday afternoon I got an offer with a new company. I have been a teacher now for about 6 years (in education for about 10), and I am getting tired of it. I deal with emotionally disturbed, bipolar, ADHD, and similar types of students. I...

    Why can't I find a sheepskin mitt?

    I have looked everywhere lately, and can't find one locally in the Houston/Humble area. Target has quit carrying the Vroom sheepskin mitts in my area, and O'Reilly etc. all sell the synthetic ones. Anyone have any ideas??

    MythBusters chrome cleaner.

    It's an old episode, but I saw it again last night. Anyone seen the episode where they clean chrome with aluminum foil and Coca-Cola? It worked pretty well according to them. Hard to really see on TV, but amusing nonetheless. I love that show for some reason. I guess watching people test...

    Eyeglass lens question.

    I wear glasses at night to watch TV and read in bed. I am wondering when it is beneficial to get high index lenses vs. traditional polycarbonate lenses. I am guessing that the increased cost of high index would be a waste of money for someone like me who only wears glasses one or two hours a...

    Any Runners?

    I thought I would start a running thread, if there are any other runners here, to dsicuss all things running. Here's a couple of things I am interested in at the moment: 1) Best shoes for $100 or less (I think any more than that is a waste because the cushioning tends to wear pretty quickly...

    Abrasiveness Rankings

    There used to be a thread that had NUMEROUS products all ranked against each other on how abrasive they were. About 20 mins. of searching is proving fruitless in finding it. Does anyone know where that thread might be? Have it bookmarked? I am trying to find an OTC polish that is similar in...

    What an absolute lowlife.

    I would like to know the full story on the relationship dynamics in this family. Anyway, how low can you possibly be to sue your parents for something like this. What a scumbag. http://www.local6.com/family/9513070/detail.html

    Garage Redecoration

    So I redecorated the garage not that long ago from this... To this... Still miss my truck and actually want another one now (Tacoma or Frontier). The old 2-door truck was becoming a bear with two kids (one still on oxygen since birth last year), and the back seat was pretty well...

    Nissan VQ engine.

    I'm leaning toward a Nissan Frontier (actually any one of the small pickups) for my next vehicle, and I see that the Nissan VQ engine is very highly touted. I know some of you can lead me to places where I can read about why this is so. What makes the engine so great that it is considered the...

    Autopia decal?

    I was looking at a post on here today and the guy had a decal for his detailing forum in the UK. Is there an Autopia decal available? I would love to display one and maybe convert some people who happen to drop by and check out the forums.

    Best store bought cookie

    I am kind of a connoisseur of factory made, store bought cookies. I love them. Recently the new Chips Ahoy Soft Baked Chunky has shot to the top of my list. One thing I can't stand about a cookie is when they are crunchy and dry. Horrible. Cookies were meant to be moist/soft ONLY! I highly...

    Crazy Sky Dive

    I was just watching a Boards of Canada video online and they had the strangest footage in it. A guy performing what looked like a sky dive from space. Turns out it was just that. Capt. Joseph Kittinger in 1960 jumped from a balloon at 102,800 feet and freefell for 4.5 minutes at speeds up to...

    Best site for loans.

    I am considering getting an auto loan for a used vehicle, and I am wondering what the best internet site is for checking out my options. Anybody ever used any of the big ones to check for loans? Lending Tree, etc. Let me know. I would like to get several options while only having to take one...

    What do I do with this?

    I hate pollen. Every year I have to watch this stuff deposit itself on my freshly washed cars and make them instantly look like crap. I'm amazed at how small pollen is, yet how fast it can layer onto a car and turn it yellow. How do I combat this? Rinsing then drying seems to only cause...

    Lawn Care

    I wanted to start a thread to see what you guys do to keep your lawns looking as nice as your cars. I personally have St. Augustine grass, and would love to know if any of you have perfected a fertilizer schedule/watering routine to achieve great results. I currently use Scott's and stick with...
