    They don't build them like they used to

    4-5 years on a computer is pretty good. I worked at a small mom and pop computer store while I was in school and I always laughed to old people who would come in and tell me they wanted to buy a computer that would last 10+ years. They thought it was like an appliance that should last forever.

    Cable / Direct TV

    I switched from cable to DirecTV when I moved 1.5 years ago. I think it has a better selection of HD channels and it works better then cable does even during bad weather. The biggest con's are cost (a little more expensive then cable) and Im limited to 5 total boxes (2 HD-DVR's and 3 regular...

    Pressure Washers - any recommendations?

    I have an electric Husky power washer and I would recommend it. The pressure it puts out was pretty good and it was cheap. So far its held up for 4 years of use and abuse. My biggest complaint was that managing the hose and power cable was a HUGE pain in the ass. The hose is a high pressure...

    Opening Day

    ^^^ I read a study that showed the ratio of time the ball is in play to total game time for baseball is higher then for football. I gave up on baseball somewhere around my junior year of high school. I was a huge baseball fan but it seemed like all my favorite players were getting traded...

    PE vs. FE Exam

    I found that the FERM prepared me less well for the FE then the ChERM prepared me for the PE. If you use X-ERM for your appropriate field I think just about anyone has a chance to pass the PE.

    HD Radio ?

    Pandora on the iPhone is the only thing that keeps me sane some days at work. Thumbs up! I also like Stitcher for listening to various podcasts.

    Have you been audited by your state board?

    Does anyone know what the requirements for teaching a PDH credit are? I would like to do a one or two hour training/presentation/engineering seminar for some of the people here at work and am wondering if this would count as PDH for them? I have been working on putting together a pretty...

    NFL

    I saw a report that the NFL makes almost as much money (~$9B) as the NBA (~$3-4B), MLB (~$5B) and NHL (~$1B) put together. And yet here we are talking about a strike. I dont know enough about the business of the NFL to really comment much about the lock out/strike/WHATEVER F*** YOU RICH...

    NCAA Tourney

    This years bracket seems like a mess. Some of the seeds are just baffling to me. Florida a #2 seed despite being ranked 15th and losing in the SEC championship??? That doesnt seem right. Four Big East teams in one bracket? Yes I realize a lot got in but cramming four in one bracket was a...
