this. any irrelevant part-time or summer jobs can be easily omitted. i also don't need to know every detail of a job you had three jobs ago (unless they're really salient.)

Building a shelf

Bumping this back up; thinking about building a simple frame out of 2x's with three 2x's running out from the wall toward the outer edge. If I screw that in at all four studs, what sorta load will it bear? So, a rectangle of 2x4 (67"x14")

Building a shelf

My current hope is to build a shelf that will sit below my tv to hold my l/r/center speakers. Might someday go in-wall, but already own the three speakers... Requirements: shelf must be 14" deep (l/r speakers are 13" deep) shelf must be 67" wide (possibly a bit more - TV is at least 48"...

YAJT: Different angle on selling jewelry privately...

Challenge. The amounts very well could matter. The market for luxury items like jewelry are crazy - the higher the price you paid, the fewer possible buyers you're likely to find.

Furnace Question

Ductwork is crap - needs to be replaced. Insulation is likely non-existent (house was built in the 50's and was never extensively renovated.) I don't really want to drop a bunch of cash on a new furnace. I'm either going to have to add on to the house or sell it as a tear-down on about the...

Furnace Question

The furnace in the house I'm buying is on the fritz. I've gotten an estimate ($700ish) to replace the Inducer Motor. Furnace is about 15 years old. So, is there any sense in fixing it? With all the tax credits going around for people to buy new, is there anywhere to buy a gently used...

Big TV box

I've kept the box for a little over a month now (since I knew I'd need it if I had to return the behemoth.) Now, it's taking a large amount of space and I don't have a very easy way to store it, so my question: is it even worth bothering to store it? I was thinking, maybe if I move, it'd...

Remove word from spellcheck dictionary

That's not helpful for non-custom words- another example: pubic vs public. Though it's a word, I doubt anyone in my office intended to discuss pubic policy.

Remove word from spellcheck dictionary

Is there any way to take a word out of the spellcheck dictionary? (Not a custom word that I accidentally added, but an honest to god word.) For example, I want to take the word "damn" out so that people don't put it instead of "dam" etc.

RG6 / Cable box VCR type cable

I thought that the best cables for this were pressure-capped? Are these still good? I'm considering the 1.5' length, but they don't have pictures. I need them to attach my HDHomeRun and Modem to a splitter (all of them work fine - I'm running 6' cables now and wanted shorter ones.)
