    Fox TERMINATOR series: The Sarah Connor Chronicles

    This episode's going to take another viewing to hopefully clarify some things.... I'm still enjoying the show...but I wasn't completely drawn in like I've been the last few episodes.

    Survivor: Fiji

    All right, all right...no one is going to change anyone's opinion of whether or not Michelle is attractive. We each already have our own opinions. I was sad to see her go. I wonder if Michelle would have gotten Earl & Yau-Man's idol if there had been time to converse...

    Survivor: Fiji

    Dreamz is very much reminding me of Bubba from Forrest Gump.....the way they kind of tip their heads back when they talk...and their mouths in general. Maybe I'm crazy. No comment needed on Lisi. I'm sure we all laughed about the same things with her. I'm starting to think good things...

    Not allowed to steal the HII? When was that said? I obviously missed it.

    Survivor: Cook Islands

    I'm horrified with the thought that someone's gonna steal the HII. Is it just me?

    Survivor: Cook Islands

    I just got caught up on episodes via the cbs survivor website. Is it a new thing that they put the episodes online? I haven't watched the show for quite a few seasons... One thing caught my eye in episode 4, with the challenge involving a rescue. Candice was the rescuee for aitu. When she got...

    good party boats in Florida? (fishing!)

    I'll be in Florida in a few weeks. I'll pretty much be making a circuit between Tampa, Miami, Orlando, etc..driving along the southern coastline areas. One of the things I want to do is go fishing on a party boat. My goal isn't to catch a monster fish. I'll be there with my girlfriend, and I...

    Question for Columbus OH area residents

    I remember walking by the arena a few years ago (at night), and everything seemed perfectly fine. If I recall correctly, there are lots of nice bars/clubs in that area. There will be lots of people around after the game, and people say there's safety in numbers, so I wouldn't worry about...

    Best Sarah Brightman DVD?

    Eden is absolutely amazing, in my opinion. Of course, it's the only one I've seen...but it's very, very nice.

    how to dye silicon oil? (without emulsion)

    Can anyone offer a suggestion.... I have to dye silicon oil without making emulsion. It also cannot dissolve in water after making the mixture. Here's exactly what I'm doing: I have a cylinder of water and I want to have colored oil on top of the water. I've already tried oil-based...

    two questions about fancy restaurants

    Thanks to everyone for your advice. Just a few things from me. She's not my wife, just a special lady friend. :) This fancy restaurant I'm going to is certainly not in Lansing, MI. :) I don't live there anymore, either. I'm going to Acquerello in San Francisco. I'm not at all...

    for physics/math people: how high would a bullet go if shot in the air?

    You can blast a shotgun round into the air and the pellets fall harmlessly back to the earth. Just a couple weeks ago, my dad demonstrated that in back of my house. Everytime he shot into the air, you could hear the pellets gently hitting the roof of the house. ;)

    two questions about fancy restaurants

    I've already printed the menu and deciphered the important words. :) Will I get to help the lady with her chair? Or will the server beat me to it?

    two questions about fancy restaurants

    I'll be going to a fancy restaurant in a few days...and I had a couple questions that I think need to be answered before I go. It'll be my first time in a place so nice, and I want to be sure I don't do anything really stupid. :b 1) Can I pay with cash ($200-300)? I would of course use...

    San Jose / San Francisco - best Italian restaurants?

    If anyone knows...are there any nice little shops near the Curran Theatre that might be open at 11 pm? Something that..perhaps..sells ice cream? Or some other enjoyable thing? Also...we'll be dressed formal for the restaurant. (just so no one worries :))

    San Jose / San Francisco - best Italian restaurants?

    In case anyone wants to offer more suggestions... The most important quality now is....fairly quiet. I'd really prefer a quiet place. I'd also prefer something that's not toooooo far from the Curran Theatre. Nils - your suggestion of Acquerello looks very good. I'm only afraid that I...

    San Jose / San Francisco - best Italian restaurants?

    I haven't gone yet. I'll be going in the very near future. I'm gonna make a decision sometime today...and hopefully the restaurant(s) aren't already booked during my visit. I'll post a message to say where I ended up going and how it was. Thanks again!

    San Jose / San Francisco - best Italian restaurants?

    I'm looking for an excellent Italian restaurant in the San Jose or San Francisco area. Closer to San Jose is preferable, but definitely not necessary. Here's what I'm looking for: - no formal dress code (i.e. no suit and tie, but expected to be somewhat dressy) - prices do not matter -...

    Who prefers to shower at night?

    The first thing I thought of, after seeing only the thread title was: "I don't, but all the Asian people I know sure do!!" Maybe it's just coincidence. :)

    Frank Lloyd Wright - can somebody ID this house?

    Supposedly it's in Oak Park, Illinois. The house isn't on http://www.oprf.com/flw/ , so I'm not sure what to think. A friend of mine took this picture, and I just wanted to at least find out the name of the house, if not more information. https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/mattson2/www/house.jpg

    What was the line about taking the fat out of...and putting it in her lips? I laughed really hard at that..not because it was THAT funny, but because of how she said it.

    new laptop - very poor image quality in IE (and windows?)

    new laptop - very poor image quality in IE (and windows?)

    I just got a new laptop..and something can't be right. Images in IE all look horribly pixelated. If I save an image and open with another program, it looks fine. Text seems to be very clear. Taskbar icons look very bad as well. Is there some setting somewhere?! Tell me there has to be something...

    MPEG playback problem in windows media player

    "It will display the length of the clip as much shorter then it actually is. In another words total time might show as 1:10, but the clip is twenty min long, and when the counter gets to 1:10, the clip will keep playing though the counter will stop. Also like I said sometimes the clip will stop...

    typical water pressure in house?

    I'm doing a small investigation of my house's water piping system. What's a typical range of water pressure in pipes inside a house, especially of a pipe feeding a showerhead?
