    Black Friday Deals - 2021

    Be sure to post up any good Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals here, especially the early sales, or just items you're on the hunt for. I'm more focused on decluttering and getting organized, so I won't be searching for much. I am keeping my eyes peeled for any smoking deals on garage cabinets...

    Prime Day 2020

    Post up your finds/deals here. Nothing too exciting this morning for us - just a three pack of Gorilla Grip cutting boards to replace our worn out ones that slide around too much.

    The Cooking Thread

    Your one stop cooking thread.  Turkey bacon not allowed.  If you can find it at a bakery, it belongs in the Baking thread. Let 'er rip!

    Conical washer/spacer?

    Anyone know if there's an off the shelf item (or name for this type of washer/spacer) that fills the recess of an 82 degree countersink to make the surface flat?  My application requires a flat surface to mount a spacer, whereas it was previously attached via a  3/8-16 flat head socket cap screw.

    If/Countif nested question

    Fighting with Excel (which I use VERY rarely).  I want to have a cell return a "yes" value when a countif function returns a value >4, without having to have a separate "helper" column. i.e. - I want cell E4 to give me a "Yes" when the number of cells in H4:R4 containing any value >0 is...

    Best Thanksgiving Recipes?

    Anyone have any must-have Thanksgiving recipes?  Maybe something a step up from the canned, congealed cranberry glop?  We're headed to my sister's for Thanksgiving this year, which means I'm at the helm for dinner prep. We're not big on turkey, so current plans are for brined baked chicken...

    Button head sheet metal screws

    Anyone have any leads as to where I can find small quantities of stainless steel, button head sheet metal screws that take a standard allen key?  I have only had luck finding cap screws or button heads that take security/torx bits.

    Online Tailors

    Anyone ever used any of the online tailor/custom clothing suppliers? The more I work out, the more disproportionate I get from the off the shelf cuts of clothing.  I have found one make/model of dress shirt that comes close to fitting, and it is often not available in my size (frequently sold...

    Rosetta Stone

    Has anyone here used the Rosetta Stone software?  If so, what'd you think of it?  We have an opportunity to buy at a very steep discount through our company, and they may even let us expense the balance.  I thought about picking up the Japanese module, as we will have extensive involvement with...

    (Un)happy National Grouch Day!

    According to Sesame Street Magazine, October 15th is National Grouch Day -- a day for all Grouches to celebrate their way of life. A Grouch's mission in life is to be as miserable and grouchy as possible, and pass that feeling on to everyone else. Only then will a Grouch feel in touch with his...

    European Vacation (No, not the National Lampoon kind)

    Has anyone here ever traveled to Prague, Croatia, or Budapest? My sister had a travel partner who backed out during the planning stages, and asked if I'd want to travel with her. For the three countries, it was an 8 day package which included all travel and hotels (including travel between the...

    College Football 2014

    May as well get this one up and running. So, looking like Braxton Miller is already done for the year at Ohio State after reinjuring his shoulder. His replacement? A redshirt freshman. That said, my contribution to this thread will probably stop here accordingly... Who do you have as your...
