  • Commented on Chairs made from crates that are better than the chairs shipped in the crates
    $415 seems pricey, even for something that looks like it came from the Arts and Crafts movement. I own a fair amount of Stickley furniture, which is by no means cheap, but it is solid oak or cherry, built in...
  • Commented on Slider Stuffing
    Actually this is somewhat similar to my parents recipe for what we call dressing. Minus the meat. It's basically bread, an egg or two, butter, chicken stock, and a ton of sage (along with a few other spices). Make into...
  • Commented on California to enact energy-saving mandates for HDTVs in 2011
    I never noticed that my 42" plasma takes any longer to "boot" from just plugged in to being turned off. And personally any TV should not "boot" up. Perhaps if it was an all in one, but it would also...
  • Commented on Lou Jing, half black Chinese girl, sparks race debate in China
    Well I wondered how long it would be before that "outraged" someone. Perhaps I said that from a different perspective. This article states a half black/half asian girl. When did using the term black to refer to someone become wrong....
  • Commented on Lou Jing, half black Chinese girl, sparks race debate in China
    I see racism in America as almost a social disorder. Yes, the classic hate racism is still there from time to time. But I see a lot of self imposed social segregation. Maybe it's a cultral thing, maybe it'll just...
  • Commented on Cellphone contracts getting even better!
    I suppose that all depends on where you live, and the people you know. I for one don't need a smart "phone". I have a phone, no keyboard, no camera, just a phone. And it works damn good to. A...
  • Commented on Antony Gormley - let's all go barefoot
    I'd imagine the sell of sunscreen would skyrocket if naked was the new thing... As I don't need a sunburn on my nether regions....
  • Commented on What Pandemics and Meteorology Have in Common
    I like to think the H1N1 pandemic is one of those things that should be kept on the back burner to let simmer. It doesn't need to be projected into peoples faces 24/7. And it certainly does not need to...
  • Commented on Growing penis tissue in the lab
    Since I'm to tired to make a joke, I think this is kind of interesting. And no not from the Bigger Johnson camp, but its a different form of tissue. And a very specific one at that. Perhaps by working...
  • Commented on Yves Béhar's seven-hour vibrator
    Hmm, well on further thought I guess that depends on if you mean with a partner... Cause the use of any other body part other than a hand would be most impressive if I was by myself....
  • Commented on Yves Béhar's seven-hour vibrator
    Yeah I'm thinking fingers are probably in third in my book........
  • Commented on Duke University official concerned that sex toy study will make students want to "just sit around and masturbate"
    Aren't studies like this really one sided? I mean, a certain percentage of the female population is not going to be comfortable, playing, talking, and in general discussing sexual topics with a bunch of strangers. Some people are open about...
  • Commented on A fast food morning with the Tesla Roadster Sport
    Good GOD they are charging $600 for a stand wall outlet charger!... That's eco highway robbery.. For 100K it should come with that and the wall mount home charger for FREE....
  • Commented on A fast food morning with the Tesla Roadster Sport
    OR you could have a Lotus Exige S260 for half that much... Which looks just as hot, is powered by a tiny 4 cyl, weighs 700lbs less and makes all kinds of wonderful noises... Lotus, still pimping that Toyota/Yamaha engine...
  • Commented on Inflatable rear seat belts
    Why not skip this and go straight to the four point harness? While we are at it, you can throw in a hans system... Not that I'm against innovation, but how about making the cars lighter and better able to...
  • Commented on TV admits it was wrong about PVRs
    So does anyone still make a stand alone DVR besides Tivo? I'm not RENTING a DVR from the cable company... My wife still uses her VCR for the soaps everyday. And when that dies, well I hope it's not for...
  • Commented on Robotic exoskeleton arms
    I wonder what the lag time on input to movement is? From the exo-frames I've seen so far that seems to be the biggest issue with getting a fully working suit. I think something like what Ripley had would be...
  • Commented on My future cheese cave
    It really shouldn't be hard to use a programmable logic board (like the basic stamp or arduino). And on the topic of fridge temp... My fridge (19 cubic ft) works fine when it's 65-80F in the house, but colder than...
  • Commented on Wee English church rebuilt on 22nd floor of Osaka tower
    On the plus side with a thachet roof inside it should never need replacing! I think it'd be cool to be married somewhere like this (not neccessarily in Japan, but with something unique). If this caught on I think it...
  • Commented on I Submit This Brief In Support of Why We Should Totally Get It On
    Well it's written in a joking, self deprecating manor at least... like she is unsure of her looks (or at least how he would judge her looks). I say seems faked. I haven't known a girl that would ever act...
  • Commented on Goat rentals for clearing brush
    Won't the brush just grow back? I mean I can brush cut English Ivy to the ground and it will re-sprout and continue to thrive. The same goes for most of the plants I need to get rid of. Of...
  • Commented on Council bans parents from play areas
    First off I have a HUGE issue with kids and cell phones, but that's another thread.... I can not logically process the rational behind this. Lets not have the biological/guardian parent watch their own child, lets have a total stranger...
  • Commented on Reversing the brain impairments caused by sleeplessness
    I believe this was covered last week on Fringe... And the US Army is now one step closer to the "Universal Soldier"....
  • Commented on Al Franken kicks eleventy-million kinds of ass in health-care hearing
    I bet she's just thinking: "Ass.." And the woman behind him is pretty hot, but I think it helps she is behind the focal point of the camera giving her a soft focus kind of feel....
  • Commented on LEDs: Throwing Some Light on the Hype
    I see the large scale led lighting market facing the same issue that the solar cell market does for large scale power generation: silicon We are still basing the creation of leds and solar cells off of a standard silicon...
  • Commented on LEDs: Throwing Some Light on the Hype
    Thank god someone has brought some reason and logic into this area. I posted on a different thread about this exact thing. And 42 lumen sounds about right for the tech we have now. Luxeon and Cree both make some...
  • Commented on WTF is "Dairy Drink?"
    How is real milk gross compared to rice "milk"? At least cows/humans/and most mammals naturally produce milk. Last time I check a rice plant produces rice, not rice milk or rice drink. Realistically milk is fairly good for you (assuming...
  • Commented on Big sale on vinyl Obama Hope Rebel flag
    I actually also wondered something else... Since states control most public school curriculum I wonder what gets taught about the Civil war is different from the South to the North?...
  • Commented on Big sale on vinyl Obama Hope Rebel flag
    So far a few people have explained my feelings well, and if you haven't read through the comments, I'm not rehashing them here... You know I've tried to think of some way of expressing my concern with the judgmental attitude...
  • Commented on Big sale on vinyl Obama Hope Rebel flag
    I wasn't aware that in my Southern heritage that we systematically rounded up large groups of people and gassed them... or invaded other countries... I happen to find the rebel flag a nice reminder of where I'm from and what...
