I need the collective brain… Our front door is leaking…from the top. That is, we have a drip (or rivulet the past few days) of water that forms at the top center of the door and runs down into the house. It seems to form at the top of the …
We got a shiny, new 32-inch widescreen HD LCD TV on Black Friday. It is in our bedroom. We have AT&T Uverse, but we do not pay the extra monthly fee for HDTV. We also have a second XBox 360 up there, primarily for the purpose of watching Hulu and …
The results from my impromptu GSM carrier preference survey awhile back conclusively favored T-Mobile. Thus, I will soon (a few weeks at most) be a T-Mobile user. I will post again once the transition is complete, but I wanted to give my peeps a heads-up as to what changes to …

It seems like I go through this thought process every month or so on my own, so I figured I’d open it up to the all-knowing f-list. Right now, my primary e-mail is via my domain (tk at tk dot org). This has advantages and disadvantages. The main disadvantage is …
So, I bought some kikori no kirikabu (chocolate tree stump cookies) while we were in Chinatown. The inside of the package always has the lumberjack saying a message, but I don’t know what the message says. Click for larger version. Anyone read Japanese well enough to translate? I can only …
Does anyone know of a store that offers DVD copying (DVD-to-DVD) in my area, for unprotected data DVDs? Kinko’s does not; I’ve already called to ask.
I’m a big fan of Freecycle. I’m subscribed to two groups for my area. Being that it’s tax season right now, it’s on the forefront of my DH’s mind that we get no tax benefit from freecycling. It’s an unfortunate consequence of the US tax code that we get no …
