    Blockbuster vs. Netflix

    Had Netflix and now Blockbuster. I think the turnaround for new movies by mail is too long for BB. My plan allows me for get 2 per month from the store., Some of the movies in my queue are starting to be shown on premium channels. Then I have to drop them. I'm going back to Netflix because of...

    What do you collect?

    My wife has been collecting banks since she was a kid. I have a lot of car, truck and airplane banks. She'll collect any that are unusual. We are trying to cut back though. I wish you didn't link me to the one on ebay. I think I'll resist buying though. We have too many! I do have the rocket...

    Buying a house ... (gasp)

    If you can afford it I believe a 15 year mortgage is a much better deal . I may even lower the interest rate by a 1/4 point.

    American Dollar Coins

    As long as the $1 bill is printed the dollar coin won't be popular (IMHO).

    I'm going to Florida tomorrow.

    If you want to deviate a little take a ride to the space center in Cape Canaveral. Some good restaurants out that way like Dixie Crossroads in Titusville.

    Buy new or used vehicle?

    If I remember correctly I believe the Morano is a much more comfortable vehicle. For me that would seal the deal.

    Mailbox Hit.. Again!

    My rural mailbox was vandalized so I decided to go the revenge route. You can purchase virtually indestructible mailboxes and the post is made from 1/4" inch extruded aluminum. I buried the post 2 feet with 4 rebars in the center and poured 2 bags of concrete to keep in place. The mailbox itself...

    HDMI Switching

    It seems every receiver I look at has only one HDMI output regardless of the number of inputs. I plan to put both a plasma display and a projector in the same room. I see they sell these 1x2 switches for the inputs but can they be used for the output as well?

    Federal/Civil service employees, a little help please?

    I'm trying not to get political here but it's not just the FAA that has suffered since January 2001. (Actually since 1981). My last job was a QA Specialist for the D.O.D. and before that with the U.S.D.A. I am so glad I don't work there anymore. When I started in 1970 a civil service career in...

    Federal/Civil service employees, a little help please?

    I've been telling my wife (an airline pilot) what a vile woman this Blakely is. Last week on an NBC report talking about near misses and troubles at the FAA she said it's the pilots who are at fault. All I can say is wait until January 20, 2009 for things to improve.

    Anyone build a Steel Home?

    Do you mean a steel frame home? Once it's complete you really can't tell it from a wood frame. A few years ago I believe the difference was about 10% more for the steel. The advantages of the steel frame other than the obvious is that the rooms and walls are perfectly square. I would definitely...

    Building a bat house..

    We actually bought a bat house and according to instructions put it up on the side of a horse barn. For the couple of years we remained at that property it never was occupied. I know there were bats around so that was discouraging. I just hope you have better luck.

    Need Help/Question on speeding ticket Plea bargain

    For the future you should consider a radar detector. I am not a proponent for speeding but I feel most speeding tickets are issued for revenue purposes rather than safety. Especially here in Tennessee near and in small towns.

    Can anyone tell me about Tennessee?

    "(3) Your dollar will go so much farther in TN then NYJ that you may feel as though you're suddenly a whole lot better off in the pocket book, that is if your current level of income is moving with you. And if that's the case, it pretty much inerts all other negatives." Agree the cost of...
