Benchmade makes some very nice, high-quality utility knives. For $75 you can get him something that he can use for a lifetime.

I'd be interested in auditioning these. Where in Chicago do you live? Shawn F

I have a feeling, though they didn't make a big deal about it, that Weaver writing that prescription for Vicodin to Belker (he'll always be Belker to me) will come up again in future episodes. Just a hunch.

While we're talking Godfather II: Senator Geary at the motel with the dead girl. Is it safe to assume that the Corleone family drugged him and killed the girl? It seems too obvious to everyone but Senator Geary that the family was involved but they never go beyond this scene and the Senator...

Another quick question: The sixth channel on a 6.1 system, the rear center, should that be a full range speaker? Would another center speaker be better?

Brian, I know what you are going through. The first three months with our daughter was brutal. I would take my daughter for drives at 3am (from Deefield to O'Hare airport. I mention this 'cause I notice you are from Chicago) just to calm her down. I would say to myself, "This is what everybody...

I just demoed a pair of Paradigm Stdio 40s. I was wondering what the price of these speakers would be at a dealer in Canada. I have a dealer close, but if it is cheaper up north...

Jason, I really appreciated your article. I've been wanting to get back into the gym and your workout may just be the inspiration. I've always done the 3 sets of 10 reps method. Most of your exercises appear to be to failure. Am I correct?

I opened my copy last night (purchased at CC) and the plastic that holds the DVD was broken off. Going back tonight to get a replacement.

I have been connecting my Energy Encore speakers to my Onkyo Home Theater receiver (TX-DS676) in the traditional format. However, upon further research, I have learned that some folks are recommending the following configuration for movies and music: hook up the four satellites and the...

Does anyone recall the marketing campaign for this movie? I remember seeing billboards all over Chicago saying something like, "Forrest Gump is coming." It had everyone talking. This is the only movie that my wife quotes and the only DVD that she was excited to purchase when it came out last...

John & Jeff, Thanks for the feedback. Can you recommend a video card that won't devastate my wallet?

I think you are right. i have a voodoo card. I failed to mention that I upgraded from Windows 98ME to Win2K. I have already downloaded a new driver. Hopefully, this will work. Thanks.

I've attempted to install a couple of video games on my pc (Jedi Knight II and Battlefield 1942 demo) and the following error displayed when I tried to start the game: GLW_StartOpenGL () - could not load OpenGL subsystem. My computer: Processor: PIII 600MHz Memory: 256 MB Hard drive...

My draft was yesterday. My team name is Project Mayhem. QB Brett Favre, Jim Miller RB Eddie George, LaDainian Tomlinson, William Green, Jamal Lewis WR Joe Horn, Troy Brown, Jimmy Smith (please play), Q.Ismail, Antonio Freeman, Hines Ward, Tony Gonzalez We use an auction style...

The shower scene in the beginning of Risky Business was filmed in a childhood friend's bathroom (Highland Park, IL). ollie_k, I work w/ your friend Dave Z.

Andre, I'm thinking it is more a monitor issue. I did the upgrade to Win2k at my office and had no issues w/ the display. Only when I hooked the computer up to my monitor at home were there problems.

Andre, I'm thinking it is more a monitor issue. I did the upgrade to Wind2k at my office and had no issues w/ the display. Only when I hooked the computer up to my monitor at home were there problems.

Ken, Thanks for the suggestion. When you say right-click the window's icon in the Taskbar, do you mean right-click the Start button? Otherwise, I'm not really sure what window's icon to which you are referring. Thanks again. Shawn

Figured I'd ask my wise friends at HTF before contacting Dell. My hard drive crashed last week. Thankfully, under warranty, Dell overnighted me a new one. Installed it and upgraded from Windows 98 to Win2k. Now, certain windows that open in my monitor expand beyond my monitor. Also, the...

My wife bought me the re-release of Football I last year. I loved this game (and dominated) as a child. I was so excited to play it again, though I grew quickly frustrated because the unit was difficult to break in. Do you guys remember the Mattel Electronics Racing game!!!????

I used autotrader.com and got many inquiries about my car. I highly recommend it. Ultimately, it was the "for sale" sign I had posted on my car that did the job. Good luck.

Fortunately, we have woodent blinds on windows. The quest continues!

Guys, please help a newbie out. I'm considering this model. Going with a TV of this size would require me to move my home theatre and TV to a wall that is opposite a wall of windows. I tried this out previously w/ my old 27" TV and the glare was brutal, so I moved everything back to its...

Certainly having Ross and Rachel together in the end would be the easiest and most sensible ending to the show. However, I feel the most amusing scenario would have Rachel with Gunther.

I just traded in The Mask and Fools Rush In. Both were promos from when I purchased a Sony DVD player two years ago. Both DVDs have "Promo - Not For Sale" on the casing. I never even took them out of the shrink wrap. The transaction was painless!

I took a film class in college and this was one of films we studied. They showed Butch on AMC a couple of months ago w/ an information bar running at the bottom. Learned lots of interesting stuff about the movie. I'm a big William Goldman fan (Princess Bride, Marathon Man).

How about $9 for a 16 ounce cup of beer at a rock concert!!

Tonya bugged the hell out of me. She just didn't seem to get it. I'll give Chris a pass because he was probably the most consistent, supportive roomie of the group.
