    What kind of spider is this?

    Yes that is a wolf spider and they are in Texas. They are harmless and great to have in a garden as they eat up lots of insects, but they are jumpers so watch out.

    GEForce2 is kerfloowey!!

    Thank you for clarifying about the flashing the bios thing, that makes sense to me. Regarding not seeing the card under device manager, I DO understand your point... here is what I see, perhaps I don't know I am seeing it! Well, lessee... under device manager under sound, video and game...

    GEForce2 is kerfloowey!!

    DVD-ROM/CDRW drive won't read burned CD's?

    I recently got this ECS laptop for my daughter, (which was posted on the hot deals forum): http://www.walmart.com/catalog...p;path=0%3A3944%3A3951. She is having trouble getting it to see burned CD's. Anyone run into anything like this? Do you think uninstalling and reinstalling the CD...

    good place for guitar lessons? (also, things to look for in a teacher)

    Yes, $20 the half hour is about normal. I didn't notice where you are but $30-$35/hr. or $18-20/half hour is about the average here. I agree that your best bet is not the university, and to look at the smaller music stores and ask the guys that work there who they recommend. Just cause a person...

    SEEKING the womens POV: IYO what's the youngest woman a 50 year old guy could ask out...

    I think that it is fine to date someone quite a bit older or younger if you find yourself compatible, enjoying each other's company, and attracted to one another. Just prepare yourself, there is something shocking and kinda weird in realizing that MANY of your memories and reality happened...

    Cool, I'm going to go look for it, maybe when I get off work. Al Green is the best ever.

    Should I ask this girl out?

    Yeah i say ask her. (And I am a girl so this is a girl opinion, btw) I think the casual "wanna join me for ..." is a good approach. Lunch, the bookstore, something not to date-like at first. Have fun!

    Cooking Question: Crockpots

    About doing the same thing on the stovetop with low heat.... it doesn't work near as well cause it seems the heat is too concentrated from the bottom.... in the crock pot the CROCKERY walls get heated up too so it heats from all around. Also, the stove top seems you wouldn't want to leave it on...

    Recipe from Once Upon a Time in Mexico

    sounds like you could just wing it. The additional ingredients you mention all sound very interesting, I might try throwing in all or most next time I cook this! THe wrapping it in foil part sounds like another dish I have tried... all this talk is making me hungry tho...;)
