    running in-wall speaker cable to two wall plates?

    I have a section of my basement all nice and studded, destined to be a home theater. Before we put in the drywall, of course, I want to run the cables; speaker, cat 5, and so on. Now, the trick is, in the short term, I'm going to want my receiver in one spot, and later on, when I get a...

    Fireworks at this time of year? In Canada?

    Folks, I'm looking for some fireworks, but I'll be darned if I can find any. I know I'm a month or two early for them to be generally available, but we're having a family get together this weekend, and the kids just love them. I'm in Muskoka, but can make it to Barrie or possibly even...

    Boston Public premiere

    Surprised not to see a thread about this one yet...wow. I've always thought that BP was basically a bet that Kelley had with somebody about how he could screw everybody over worse than the previous week, and he's set a new high for himself. Good plot lines, some realistic conflicts between...

    Just under a month...can't wait! MOO3 with Alan Emerich! I'm getting pretty antsy! Stupid Zellers had an ad for it last week, I got all excited, then I checked on line; not out till November 27th or so. Damn those three-month-in-advance flyers!

    Enterprise epiphany

    I'm watching the classic Trek episode, Dagger of the Mind, on Space. It's the first episode where Spock gets his Mind Meld on. Anywho, he explains that it's very dangerous, because he needs to physically alter blood flow, pressure, nerve connections, and the like. He takes care to caution...

    Boston Public 5/6/2002

    Hmm. We had a gay student at a catholic school sue over the right to bring his boyfriend to the prom. (why the hell have I been confusing 'quote' and 'spoiler' these days? But who cares, I don't think BP is rebroadcast at any point) Jeri Ryan's blue shirt with the white patterns: DAMN...

    ebay rules - incorrect item title?

    So I'm selling some stuff on ebay, and today I notice that somebody used the 'buy it now' option on one of me auctions. Then I noticed that I fucked up; I'm auctioning off a bunch of stuff, and used the 'sell similar item' function to create this auction after another one. Long story short...

    I think we need a HTF recognition signal

    You know, every time I'm at the local Future Shop, or better yet, DVD Wave, I find myself wondering "Gee, I wonder if any of the people here perusing DVDs are on the HTF." But I don't want to ask, because, well, it sounds like I'm trying to sell drugs. "Hey, man, you look like a fellow who...

    Klingon Academy manual PDF?

    Having played through, and returned, Bridge Commander as being all graphics, no meat (and just plain silly; a cap ship cannot fire it's phasers indepandently?) I read online that Klingon Academy is much nicer. Tried the demo, seemed nice enough. Might be enough to make me get the Microsoft...
