    Paragon Backup & Recovery 10?

    Has anyone used Paragon Backup & Recovery 10? I need a good drive imaging solution for personal use and can't decide between it and Acronis True Image Home 2011. I know Acronis has many fans here, but I'd appreciate opinions from those familiar with the paid Paragon offering. Thank you in...

    hydrocodone is a good time.

    What a coincidence to come across this thread. I had surgery on Friday for a severely deviated septum and was prescribed Hydrocodone for pain management.

    How would you transfer eleventy billion Hi8 tapes to a hard drive...

    We've purchased a Sony Digital8 camcorder and Pinnacle Studio software. The Digital8 cam plays the older Hi8 tapes without a hitch, connects directly to the PC via Firewire, and we can capture the video feed through Pinnacle Studio. Everything is working like a top! Thanks to each of you for...

    Anyone else completely lose interest in their pregnancy when they found out the baby was the wrong sex?

    That's probably the most shallow, least apropos and lamest analogy I've ever seen on this bored. Truly. We're not talking about managing client's expectations with business concerns, we're discussing a living, breathing, human baby. There is a significant difference between the two. Sure...

    Mortgage Loan and Closing Cost

    Quick question to those involved in the mortgage industry: How legitimate are some of the closing cost fees? To the average home buyer, it's impossible to determine which of the myriad fees are necessary, and/or if there's suspect "padding" involved. Also, in this respect, is the mortgage...

    Anyone else completely lose interest in their pregnancy when they found out the baby was the wrong sex?

    +1. I can't believe not one ATOT'er has commented as you did, and you posted on page 3! OP is basically saying he doesn't want a boy because he can't buy cute clothes and doesn't care for sports. That's it. WTF?! I'm guessing this is some kind of rile-us-up thread. No man can be that fucking...
