I've sold HP, Toshiba, Fujitsu, Acer and Lenovo. Of all of those I will recommend Lenovo Hands Down. Their tech support is fantastic, their laptops are functional and durable. The X300 is the sexy Lenovo these days, but any ThinkPad or IdeaPad would suffice. ThinkPads are usually business class (dur...

I like medium priced pens, but I don't really use them that much anymore. Ultra Fine Sharpies are about all I use any longer. (there are 4 black and 3 multicolored ones sitting on my desk in plain sight right now,) When I was writing by hand more often, I loved my parker pen, but I can't remember th...

Not to be too much of a stickler here, but technically the kids birthday will happen on Sept 7th next year. (that's kind of how birthdays work!)

Of course this is assuming the kid is born on the 7th at all, which is not a certainty.

Just to further beat the horse:

And because I can't believe there is a Star Wars thread that doesn't link to wookiepedia.

Two more days with my beard....

But then March Mustache Madness begins and I change my facial hair configuration yet again!

At first she was mortified. I didn't tell her I was doing it until after I shaved my Van Dyke. She wasn't happy.... But I wanted it to be a surprise! (February is a short month after all!) Now that I have a full beard she says she likes the beard, but wants me to go back to normal again. I'm interes...

Bumping an old thread to mention that I'm currently participating in http://momonth.com's celebration of International Moustache Month. I shaved all facial hair on Feb 1 and haven't shaved since. I'll proceed to shave all but the 'stache on the 29th. I'll post pictures then, if I remember. I'm the h...

I think It's a bad thing for the republicans that McCain is basically unopposed in this election. He's too liberal for the Conservatives and too Conservative for the liberals. He's just too darn moderate to get much fervant support when it comes down to him vs. one of the Democrats. That said, I'm g...

I've got one! Drunk Zombie mistaken for Murder Victim BERLIN (Reuters) - Passengers on a German train mistook a Halloween reveller dressed up as a gore-covered zombie for a murder victim and called the police. The 24-year-old man fell into a drunken slumber on his way home from a Halloween party in ...

Ever since I beat Portal, I've been addicted to Still Alive. It's gotten me to go back and listen to my other Jonathan Coulton music as well... RIght now I'm listening to Betty and Me by JoCo. http://www.scrapheap-challenge.com/images/smiles/companion-cube.gif BTW, if you don't know who JoCo is you ...

Arrested Development was fairly recent and, I thought, fairly well known. It was often called "the most critically acclaimed show that you're not watching". I thought it was great. I guess the fact that it was an awesome show that got canceled in its prime, Not to mention the whole "...

I'd say that Hogans Heroes was a very popular TV show, since it's been in reruns for as long as I can remember. I used to watch it when I was in elementary school, and it's still on regularly today 20 years later. They don't do that for just any show. But as Schultze would say "I Know Nossink.....

Also, since this thread had some gaming discussion in it, I thought I'd mention that anyone who wants to add me to their XBox live friend list - my Gamertag is NoodleGuy.

Ways to annoy a computer tech: 1) Tell me there was an error message, but you don't have a clue what it said. 2) Tell me there was an error message, and make up some random error message that can't possibly exist. 3) Argue with me on my diagnosis. I'm the trained professional, you called ME remember...

At this rate I'm gonna beat 3nd to 10,000 posts....

Of course if you factor in the couple thousand I racked up on Ye Olde Olde Pweb, and Ye Not so Olde as Ye Olde Olde Pweb it was going to happen anyways.

Congrats!

I'm currently reading three different books, each for a different reason. For pleasure reading its: The Man in the High Castle from Four Novels of the 1960's by Philip K. Dick . It's an interesting premise - The Axis won WWII and Japan and Germany split up the World. The real interesting part is whe...

So who thinks that a fill in the blank "The enemy's gate is ___" is too elitist? It's okay but there are a few PWEB'ers who would not have been able to join if we had used that back in the day. Most notably Limegiver, who did not read EG for many years. Come to think of it, I don't know i...

Even if I wasn't already a huge Radiohead fan, I would buy this album. I think it's a great business model and I hope more bands follow suit. This is the type of paradigm switch that the music industry needs. Since Radiohead made little to no money off of each individual album sale, but they got a b...

I started out only clockwise, but after trying to focus on something else 5 different times I was able to switch to counter clockwise. I needed to have the image on the screen and focus on the white part so she was spinning in my peripheral vision, with that trick I can make her change directions wi...

This reminded me of an entire section called "Beard Manual" which features such beards as the "Starchops, The Contintenal Merlin, Hashburns, The Van Catfish, The Startled Satan and the Flaxen Neck." In the fantastically funny book "The Areas of My Expertise" by John Hod...

Playing through this right now... it is awesome! Graphics are beautiful, story is deep, the only problem I have with it is the fact that it just froze on my 360 and I hadn't saved for a long time.... oh well, I can play thorugh the last hour again, maybe I'll get something I missed before!

Noodle

it doesn't appear to be going very well.. but Let me be the first to post encouragement.

This is a good idea for a thread, and I hope it takes off.

I'm not sure the distance per post analogy holds up. You are picking an arbitrary distance value that has no meaning, and changes between posts.... This methodology can be used in exactly the opposite way to say that things on PWeb are going faster than ever before. At 1 light year per post, we are ...

I just finished this, and while it's not on the top 15 list of OSC books. It's not awful. It's a popcorn novel.... not much substance to it but it's kinda fun. I don't foresee this becoming anyone's favorite novel of all time, but since it's a quick read, there's no real harm in it. **** Pretty Majo...

Let's get our facts straight: 22-year-old Alfredo Ramos was convicted in February on DUI charges from November 13, 2006.... He was given a 90 day suspended sentence, fined $250, had his drivers' license suspended, and he ordered to participate in ASAP, an alcohol awareness program. This is more than...

This issue is clearly about drunk driving enforcement and the fact that the driver was an illegal alien is nothing more than an interesting bit of trivia. Clearly a multiple offender, with no license should have gotten something more than a fine. Since the judges involved didn't know that he was an ...
