    Guy Kuo's Advanced Guide to Avia - Archived here?!??!

    I was wondering if anybody had the link to the thread where Guy goes into great detail of what each chapter/sequence on his Avia disc is designed to do and what to look for and eliminate. I've tried searching and it just don't wanna work... ... It was a long, list-based thread.... I can...

    Your "Stage" Name

    Well, using your formula it'd be Baron Cather. Using another formula (Middle name + Street) a better one for me would be Wesley Whitehaven :D

    Winning $450 - what should I buy?

    I'm torn.... I had a dream about a digital camera last night, so that may be what's called for. Although an xbox would be pretty cool. So far, I'm the first kid on the block with HDTV, so now I can be the first on the block with an xbox :) Remember being the first on the block with Cable?

    Winning $450 - what should I buy?

    Thanks for the suggestions... But the way I look at unexpected money is to buy something I never would have bought with expected money. Something I heard on 60 Minutes II last night - "An ancient Chinese proverb states that if you have $.10, spend a nickel on bread and a nickel on a flower"...

    Winning $450 - what should I buy?

    I'm about to win my Fantasy Football league (basically a 2nd round bye) and the winner gets $450. I've considered an X-Box, and I've considered a new receiver (still in the days of Pro-Logic). But I have a feeling that after a few months the x-box will start collecting dust and the receiver...

    24 - 12/18/01

    This is an outstanding show, but the dark-haired guy (can't remember his name - the one seeing Nina) kind of frustrates me. It's like they only bring him in when they need to stir the pot up a little bit. Either develop his character a little more or do without him. I know that there's...

    Poll - Dumb reasons for breaking up

    Well, I once broke up with a girl (only a 2-month relationship, if there is one) because it was the end of the school year, which would have been acceptable if we couldn't drive (we could :b )

    George Foreman Grill Owners: How do you clean your grills?

    The single thing I don't like about my grill. Need one person to hold it open under the faucet while another person scrubs it down. If anybody has a better way, I'd like to know....

    Bears...good or just lucky?

    Aw, Hell, neither being good nor lucky had anything to do with the Bears winning that game. It had everything to do with the Lions' ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. 0-16!!! Yeah, I love living in Detroit... Luckily moving to St. Louis right around playoff time - better...

    How many know HTML?

    Moving to St. Louis - advice on moving my 55" widescreen

    Well, I'm worried about the constant vibration it would see if there was nothing between the wheels and the bottom of the trailer. I was thinking about 4-6" of foam pad (have an old mattress pad I can cut up)... I don't have to worry about it falling over because of the tiedowns.

    Moving to St. Louis - advice on moving my 55" widescreen

    Well, I'm only going to be down there about 8 months. I work for Ford and we're launching a new vehicle at the plant in Hazelwood (probably going to live in Creve Coeur). So my options were 1) put the thing into storage (sha), 2) leave it with a friend/family member and if it gets screwed up...

    Moving to St. Louis - advice on moving my 55" widescreen

    Heh, I was thinking about hiring somebody, but luckily, I'm on the ground floor, very close to the front door. Would just be a matter of rolling the thing out the door. I'm just worried that the thing will fall over inside the trailer.... And I miss WMU... Your apartment looks familiar (like...

    Moving to St. Louis - advice on moving my 55" widescreen

    I'm moving to St. Louis shortly (1/13/02) and need some suggestions on proper care and feeding of my Mits. 55807 during the 10 hour journey. Like how to secure it, padding, etc. It will probably be going in one of the smallest cube trailers (trailers, not a truck) that UHaul has to offer, since...

    Who's got tattoos or piercings?

    Two tattoos: one of "The Crow" on my lower right ankle, and a lameass-drunken-stupid-fraternity pin on my left chest that I need to get covered/removed REAL bad. Want another tattoo(s) of some ants crawling up my feet but the wife won't allow it....

    Need Fantasty Football advice!!!!!!

    Well, now I have another question. I'm 5-4 in my league, and 3-1 in my division. I have Jeff Garcia, Ricky Williams, Warrick Dunn (Maurice Smith rides the bench), Keenan McCardell, Marty Booker, Tim Brown, and Bill Schroeder. Another divisional opponent has Deuce McAllister, and I'm looking...

    Snowthrower Recommendations?

    Trust me, the money spent on a two-stage auger type is WELL worth it. My parents have two driveways (oval in the front, straight on the other corner) but it would get the whole job done in about twenty minutes. Can't really recommend a brand though... The one they have is a Simplicity and...

    Anyone want to quit smoking with me?

    Well, I'm the only chewer (which is probably worse :) ) in here, but it's not going too bad. Cut down dramatically - now only three a day. I was at the point before where I would actually have a dip in more than I wouldn't. Hopefully tomorrow I can cut down for good (tough to handle the...

    Anyone want to quit smoking with me?

    I'm in - 'cept I don't smoke. I prefer my cancer oral (chewing tobacco). I already have my reward fund set up, so after a week without my good friend Nic, it's off the to buy the Pronto! Already stocked up on Nicorette, too...

    Discovery on Direct TV

    Yeah, there's still plenty of good stuff on. If you're into the Discovery channel most PBS stations have a pretty good demo channel running (except when they multicast IDENTICAL STUFF - Damn you WTVS!) And CC isn't the only one - I was doing some undercover work at Best Buy the other day and...

    Car repair message board? Cherokee dash...

    If you want to save a few bucks you can check out a Chilton's manual (probably $20-25). Go to a car parts store and you should be able to look through before/if you buy it and make sure it has the info you need...

    Any paintball players around here?

    I used to play a ton in High School. The main reason I stopped is I hate playing indoors, and the outdoor season in MI is like 5 months. Never used grenades, though... I was a sniper :) Two guns - a Tippmann SL-68 pump with an 18" internally rifled barrel, and a Tippmann 68 special with a...
