    I was just online checking my account and there are 3 $1 hits for AOL, IMBd and Experian. I don't have AOL, I can get credit scores free and IMBd is an online movie database that I don't use. So I am getting my debit card shut down. I thought I was pretty careful w/ my debit card but apparently not enough. I do know of individuals no matter how careful you are the card # is stolen. Now off to check my credit cards just in case.

    I have an older Ryobi table saw that the top has a bunch of grooves on it. I prefer to have a flat smooth surface to easily glide the wood. Sometimes as it is the wood seems to stick to the surface. Any suggestions to make the top into a smooth surface?

    Last year we bought a Field & Stream tent from Dick's Sporting Goods. Looks alot like the Coleman Elite 8. We had to use seam sealer. Apparently I missed a spot or 2 and it was just enough to let the rain in. :-( I personally wouldn't recommend it for one reason. Nice tent but a real pain to setup especially if you are the only one doing it. I am guessing around 30+ minutes. If you have 2 or 3 people helping probably wouldn't be so bad. Definetly not something for the bike either. Maybe if you had a trailer as it is heavy even in the bag. http://i215.photobucket.com/albums/cc121/lylejt/Camping%2006_25_2011/DSCN0035.jpg

    About 4 yrs ago (keep in mind I am in my late 30's) my brother in law got me an OCC coloring book. I opened it up and thought to myself WTF would compel one adult to buy a coloring book for another adult.

    So how does one go about aquiring a jet to display in their yard? I have seen cannons and a half-track but never a jet.

    Out of curiosity did you try typing in another web address like yahoo or google? Just wondering if that address is proprietary to t-mobile.

    In other words you want to use it like a mini-tablet. Keep in mind just because you see it doesn't mean you can't use it. Often times wifi spots are password protected. Since I am new to wifi myself on my 4s I haven't done it at a restaurant, but I believe when you go some places have instructions on how to connect to their wifi. When you see the wifi icon does it display a lock icon?

    Am I missing something? 1 person owns both Renton Motorcycles and Renton Honda. They are moving R.H. into the R.M. facility. Why don't they just flip flop and move R.M. into the R.H. facility? Wonder why they said it doesn't make since to move. Not sure moving would be the smartest move, but never know until you do it. I am not sure of the distance between the 2 locations, they could lose some Honda customers due to the move. Also You have a specific bike line (Honda) that you have to appeal to a specific customer base whereas R.M. sounds like it would have a broader product line. Just gonna take a guess at this w/in a few years probably won't have a Honda dealership there either if they are blaming this on the economy unless Honda corp. has some sort of assistance plan.

    This is going back to the beginning I know and possibly been answered already. Yes the iphone and new razr have internal "non-replaceable" batteries, that is unless you know how to do it. http://www.ifixit.com/ What I like about it is it has videos and step by step directions showing you to do various things and not just limited to phones. Has stuff on game consoles and many other topics. My 4S is only a month or 2 old so I haven't needed it but I have references now in case I do need it. One word of warning the screws used now on the new phones are different than the older ones. The replacements are the older style so if you have an issue that needs sent back to Apple they might see the screws are different and will say no go because it has been tampered with. Also even though you have 16gb of storage that doesn't mean that is how much free space you have. The 16bg is total storage. After the o/s installed and all that I think it is more like 12gb free space if I remember right.

    We looked at doing this several years ago. Don't remember why we decided not to, but there are a couple places where they have homes on display. You can call the factory and they can give you a tour. What I like about it is what others have said, indoors, consistently built, etc...with outdoor crews you never know what hodgepodge you get. Depending on how handy you are like Sylvester you can leave the house partially unfinished (saves cost) and do some of it yourself. Now here is what my possible ignorance on the topic comes in. From what I remember you buy the plot of land, have it developed, and once it is all said and done the only thing the manufacturer does it basically put it in place for you, hook it up to city, sewer or what have you. Maybe not all manufacturers are the same but I remember 1 of them telling us this. So you might have to do alot of leg work to get the property setup for the home to be put in place. But this could be a good thing. Again possible savings.

    I really don't think it matters if they still make them or not. I think it is just a matter of demand. If there are lots of people looking for them, it will drive the price up. If not, then price will go down. Also depends on condition, etc...

    Don, I don't know how many minutes you normally use but a few years ago a corp. rep. came to our business and I asked about any alternative plans. We had 700 as well and were barely touching 300. He told us about a plan for 550 shared minutes. I just logged into our account our family plan is called Nationwide Loyalty Share 550. If I recall it was at least $20 cheaper. oldgoat. It is always nice to know that you have family looking out for you.

    Quite possible. Had a similar issue. Mine was signals stopped working in the back and were solid in the front if I remember right. Ended being the ground from one of the front signals had completely broken off at that rubber boot part. I went over and over again in my head to go with used or new. Decided new signals because you never know with used, especially older used ones is that they could have a ground ready to break too.

    Basically just trying to get it started and keep it going. I found a cox manual online and went by that but I can't keep it going. By the time I get anything out of it I seem to run out of fuel in the tank. The manual says to go 5 turns out which is running it rich, once you get it going then back it off. I tried using a battery attached to the glow plug and starter spring, chicken stick and finger start it. I also tried different revolutions, meaning I would try 3.5, 4, 4.5 & 5 turns out. Nothing seems to be able to get it going. I messed with it for several weeks and the most I can get is about 5 seconds worth before it dies. I am using 1/2a fuel that I bought this summer at a local hobby store. I can get the bottle if you want to know brand, bottle, etc... I also tried AMA which has several local chapters. I emailed I believe 5 people that have their name listed as running the local sites, only 1 responded stating he doesn't deal w/ engines that small but at least would try. His offer is much appreciated but I need someone that knows the engine.

    If she owes money how is that showing she's a good mother? Makes it that much harder to support the kids w/out those funds. Being a good parent is much more than just a body which from what you have said now and in the past hers isn't around for the kids. I am sure others can chime in but if she is in contempt wouldn't the police have a warrant for her arrest?

    Jeff, I am not sure if that is the exact one or not but I will say it is close to what I saw. 1/4 million price tag. Well considering the houses that are in that subdivision not suprised.

    My guess it probably is considered ultra light. Here is a pic of a model that I found on ebay. Pretty close to what I saw. http://i.ebayimg.com/t/Robinson-R-22-Light-R22-Helicopter-Wood-Model-Reg-FS-/20/!CCyHjrwBWk~$(KGrHqYOKp0E0VKo5JQ9BNMU(WfWLg~~_3.JPG

    The view from our backyard has a subdivision that has homes that are easily 750k+ (our home value is no where near that). We were looking out back and saw something moving. We kept looking and figured out that it was helicopter that had landed at the homeowners yard. It was a small probably 2 seater. It got me to thinking is that legal? Wonder what the regulations are and wonder how the FAA would feel if they knew about it.

    I just had another thought on this. It came about because my youngest son had his birthday over the weekend. My sister in law posted pics to facebook. I know she took them from her cell but either it is old enough that it doesn't have the ability to post your location or that feature is turned off. Not sure I like the idea of the location of our house posted for all to see.

    Is that a voyager trike?

    I can't see the video at work but from the posts I am pretty sure I know what it is about. I saw a report on this a couple weeks ago on the news. That's why I like SD cards. I just upload to my pc and then to the net when I am ready. Also do not announce when I am going on vacation, but do let others know where I went to when I get back.
