    The $200 book on tape

    I scored the audio-book version of William Burroughs Naked Lunch read by Burroughs himself off from Half.com. Amazon and Ebay have the 3 CD version of of this out of print title going for $200 (gah!!) but I got it on cassette tape for $30 including shipping. I'm enjoying the music of his voice...

    A year in review

    Dave Barry Year in Review: Bailing out of 2008 BY DAVE BARRY How weird a year was it? Here's how weird: • O.J. actually got convicted of something. • Gasoline hit $4 a gallon -- and those were the good times. • On several occasions, Saturday Night Live was funny. • There were a few days...

    What Happened To The Save Option?

    I was in the middle of writing a PM and had to go. I was looking for the Save option and I couldn't find it. Is it still there and somehow I missed it?

    The home studio of the 21st and 1/2 century!

    Well, I shot my card at Guitar Center today.... Got the laptop maxed out on Ram last week (still only 2 measly GB) and tonight filled the nearly blank hard drive with the Native Instruments Komplete Synths virtual synthesizer software box set containing their modulators: Absynth 4, FM-8, Pro...

    D. binata and drainage

    The only option for growing D. binata I have is in a relatively small undrained container on a windowsill. I'd like to know how rot-prone the plant is and an approximate water level for the plant (container depth is about 6 inches). I will be unable to use the tray method and would like the best...

    A fly trap terrarium.

    Hello, Ive been doing a lot of reading on the forum here and figured I better ask for advice if I plan on having any type of luck with a project like this. I've noticed that you guys really frown on growing fly traps in any kind of terrarium, but I'm a poor college student who is stuck in a...

    Wanted: A Bunch of Stuff

    I posted a similar topic in CPUK forums. Howdie folks! A couple of years ago I was forced to get rid of my collection of CPs due to space (I had to move into an apartment for a while due to relocation) and there was nobody that I knew locally that could care for them correctly. I wisely sent...

    I am looking around for a useful book that I can try and start learning how to do simple wiring task like hook up fluorescent shop lights without plugs and such. I don't have a very good idea of what book might be useful for this. Recommendations would be appreciated, as there seem to be quite a...

    Sup, peeps? I have a problem. My N. campanulata have settled in and are pitchers well, growing fast, and all is well... BUT the pitchers just aren't lasting. I have never encountered this problem, so I don't know how to address it. I feed twice a month. Half strength organic fertilizer. The...

    Dave's experimental GREEN grape jam Est $6

    One mason jar. I made this once before on a lark. Using some round about logic, I figured green grapes would make good jam if you added cinnimon and other dessert-type spices. I was right! :gulp: It was like spreading CANDY on my toast. Openning bid, $3. If winner has a bid over $10, I...

    Dave's fabulous spiced pear jam GP_Princess $6

    Home made pear jam.....but not the way you'd think. Spiced with a variety of dessert spices (stuff like cinnimon & cloves). Sounds odd, I know....But this stuff is DA BOMB. One regular mason jar (what is that, a pint?) Opening bid $3 If winning bid is over $10, I will give you the option...

    Need help with buying a graphing calculator

    Went shopping for school today and got some cool stuff. Wireless printer! Didn't know they made that. Anyway, I got a TI- Nspire. Got this because that's the best they had, and because my current calculator is Casio, was just like $50 when I got it, and EVERYONE seems to use TI so whenever I ask...

    My thoughts on clay and Lightweight Expanded Clay Aggregate

    Yes. Clay. I love this stuff. I have noticed that in pots where I use 50% arcillite, 25% LFS, and 25% bark & charcoal as the medium, with a 1/4th inch top dressing of Sphagnum, I can have near-instantaneous drainage , however, it has been my experience that it does not dry out any faster than...

    Arrgh! Thiefs!

    People keep walking away with my plants, and I need to figure out how to keep that from happening. The only option I can think of at this point is to put a security kit on each pot. It's going to be expensive, and look bad, but I can't keep having plants walk away, nor can I place them anywhere...

    VFT Dormancy in PA (early, I know)

    I've read a lot on dormancy but the information I've read is kinda general. I've got other care info down pat for VFT's at this point, but this one is still a big hole for me, so I'd like to fill it. I seem to really have two dormancy options. (I'm in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, 90 miles west of...

    Privacy rights violation?

    This site has all state driver's licenses on it, viewable by anyone. I did a search on mine, and sure enough I was on it - but there is an option to have it removed, which I requested. It's worth a look! http://www.license.shorturl.com/
