    Why must we spell things incorrectly?

    would you go see the band Limp Biscuit? Corn? How appealing would a crispy cream donut be? I think it has to do with marketing and trying to get your name out there." Name is a HUGE part of the marketing of anything.

    Just found my biggest pet peeve

    Maybe cell phones are replacing the cigarette as a public annoyance. Should people who wish to make a cell phone call, pull out there phone like a pac of smokes? "Mind if I cell?" "Anyone else care to cell?" Can we imagine "No Cell Phones Allowed" Signs hanging in public places.

    you want a "name" brand cavity backed club. Steel shafts and you want to take the time to get a swing evaluation to see what kind of "offset" you would be best with. You won't go wrong with Tommy Armour 845's or a generic knock-off of that club. King Cobra is aother club that you might get...

    Recommendations on Golf Clubs?

    The 845's are a great set of clubs, depending on the condion $150 would be a very good investment in your golfing future..you could easily get a lifetime of golf out of them. Another nice set to look at would be Cleveland's. Obviously stay away from the k-mart specials or youi wsill HATE gold...

    my brother-in-law makes the BEST ribs....he does a great fruit juice and maple sugar based sauce and bastes them on his weber charcoal grill. He uses the rib rack so they stand on end over a mellow indirect heat. Generally he has 2 grills going at once (both charcoal) He just stands out there...

    Shipping woes....

    I'm seeing it more and more at work, boxes that once used to come in in near perfect condition, seem to be showing up in much rougher shape. Could it be extra handling after 9/11?

    Missile Defence Hypocrisy

    I think I saw the same show...but I did not really see anyone "extolling" anything. I did the show explaining that there were possibly 1000 unaccounted for stinger type shoulder fired missiles, and that they were in the US and in the hands of terrorists. I did hear them say that the numbers...

    Is or was anyone here a cable installer?

    judging by the guy who came to my house to install my adelphia cable modem, and tried jamming a usb cable into the ethernet port of my computer and could not figure why he had no connection...by the fact that you formulated a complete sentence, you might be over qualified. All kidding aside...go...

    Pete Rose back in baseball

    Why is it wrong to bet on your own team? I think he would be a goldmine for baseball if he could manage the reds back into the playoffs.

    I have an appointment with a saab technician to go thru the car on Monday, and I will have my brother go thru it this weekend to check for any possible boddy problems. While carfax may not be perfect, it is certainly better than not having checked.
