Bat Droppings

Wow — I was nervous about posting the wooden bat thing, but I guess I might have spoken out on something that may have been on many of our minds in the first place.I thought I might have been the only one seeming so heartless. Not that this holds a candle to the New Jersey … Read more

Wooden Bats! So we can be safe!

Hi friends, I happened across this story on Foxnews.com this morning. While I’m sympathetic with the family for their tragedy, what will sueing the baseball bat manufacturer, the sporting goods store AND Little League accomplish? I understand they might need some financial assistance for the medical needs the young man has now. But to sue … Read more

Techno-Addicto-Lady II: The Auxiliary Cable

So one of the things I was looking forward to with my new iPhone was plugging it into our car’s auxiliary port and letting the tunes fly through our car’s stereo speakers. We had issues with our Motorola Rokrs before because our aux cables were for 3.5 mm jacks, Rokrs needed 2.5 mm jacks. Of … Read more

Defuzzing Poll Results

Thanks to the 13 respondents who bravely took my Bikini Line Hair Removal poll. An overwhelming majority (5 out of 13!) shave. Lucky you! The rest of the responses had an even spread between plucking and waxing. PS: See that razor up there? That’s the Gilette Sensor Excel for Women, my favorite since I was … Read more

Gas Prices, Plus Some Experiment Results

Hi! Today I finally got up the nerve to submit a local gas price to the Raleigh Gas Prices website. I figured I’ve been using the site so much, and the station right outside of my neighborhood’s entrance (it has a single entry/exit, more on that for another posting) is hideously expensive, I thought I’d … Read more

Toaster Oven Update

Thanks everyone for your comments/advice. We are definitely a “toaster oven” family, I don’t think we’ve owned a standard toaster in our 12 1/2 years of marriage. Don’t know why — I think it’s because we received a great toaster oven from Dave’s parents the first Christmas after we got married (1995) and it’s just … Read more

Support Assistance Request

Hi! Oops, I did it again. I committed a brain fart and now I’m in need of a replacement RACK for our toaster oven. I popped in these little dessert h’or deurves the other night and the directions said they could bake in these little plastic “oven proof” trays that came with the dessert. Well … Read more
