Who has experienced a "pitted" CD?

I have some CDs from the very beginning of the format, and some still are perfect, but about 20% or so have problems with "pitting" or "pinholing" I've burned copies of them, and had to replace one disc, I couldn't find one track, the only one I really cared about, anywhere, so I grabbed a...

Installing an LCD wall mount

Or you can use a stud finder that costs like to bucks. Your Uncle's neck will remind him constantly that mounting a TV above normal eye level is a huge mistake. A friend complained of neck pain for weeks to me every time I talked to him on the phone. I went to his house to help him fix his car...

How high is too high to mount a plasma?

A warning to anyone thinking about mounting a flat panel TV above a fireplace. Doing it is just asking for neck problems! Ideally, you want the set to be centered at eye level when you are sitting where you normally watch it. People will ignore this, and then complain of neck problems...

Pitbull sodomizes 2yr old

My Pit mix loved kids, as long as they didn't scream into his ears. If they did, he wanted to leave. NOW. My friend's kid came over once, and put him in a headlock and screamed into his ear. He just shook the kid off, and went to bed. Once we got it through to the kid that he shouldn't do it, he...

Pitbull sodomizes 2yr old

LOL, if he was hungry enough to get up, maybe he would fight the dog for food! My friend had one for like 15 years. My Pit mix loved him. He would run up to him and the pig would lie down and my dog would lick his ears and face. He would make that happy "grunt" noise the entire time he was...

Pitbull sodomizes 2yr old

My Dachshund was way beyond yapping and snarling, he bit everyone in the house, except me, several times. My dad got snarled at on a nightly basis when he tried to move him off his bed so he could get into it. He got bit at least once month for the 4 years we had him before his kidneys went bad...

diet sodas

Phenylalanine isn't a problem unless you have Phenylketonuria. Since you don't know about it, you don't have it. It's a condition where certain amino acids can't be tolerated, and that's what the warning means. The wierdo conspiracy stuff about Aspartame/Equal is total nonsense. There is stuff...

diet sodas

I totally agree that diet drinks taste nothing like the regular versions. I've tried and tried to get used to them, but it's like tossing money away, as it was rare that I would ever finish a can or bottle. I pretty much switched to Iced Tea, and just don't drink diet pop at all. Even the...

Post your cell phone brand name

I had a Nokia 3650 until last week, it was a great phone, performance wise, but the goofy dial annoyed me no end, and the bluetooth never worked right. It was the ONLY phone that was usable in our NOC at work. I finally retired it, and got a Motorola Razr V3xx last week. It's not as good a...

Need cellphone recomendations

You can buy those protective sheets if you are that worried about scratches, or you can just use the toothpaste method and polish almost any scratch out. Gleem toothpaste works great. I've fixed a lot of scratched displays with it.

Woman dies in ER lobby as 911 refuses to help

I was nearly a victim of this kind of thing when I was 12, a long time ago. I was having bad stomach pains all day, and we ended up going to the ER at one of the 2 biggest local hospitals. Our family doctor had called ahead, thinking, correctly, it was appendicitis from the way I yelled when my...

Rocket Man by Mr. Shatner..

He's won Emmy awards the last couple of years. Not many 75 year olds are working in a weekly series, and winning awards. His schedule is amazing, the guy never stops. The reporter they had following him around one week said he thought he was going to pass out from exhaustion, he couldn't believe...
