    New iPod nano--it might actually make me hate Apple less

    I agree the touch screen is difficult to use, but double-clicking the power button skips to the next song on your playlist, which is adequate while running and doesn't require aversion of the eyes from the road. Any player would require you to look at the screen if you're not using a playlist...

    New judge for America's Got Talent... Howard Stern?

    Ha, ok. So you loved his movie and liked his books, yet you claim he has no talent (according to your earlier post)? If you enjoy those things (which were the creations of the guy with "no talent"), why wouldn't you enjoy him on AGT? No feelings hurt here, just wondering where you're coming...

    New judge for America's Got Talent... Howard Stern?

    Apparently accurately and consistently judging what it takes to create the most popular radio show in history for the past 30+ years as well as numerous other successful forays into other media doesn't count. Amazing how some people only mention strippers and porn stars when speaking of...

    New judge for America's Got Talent... Howard Stern?

    Yes, I watch the show, and I've observed the dynamic between Howie and Piers. There's no reason to believe Howie will take the same tack with Howard, especially knowing how much Howie likes and respects Howard, i.e., Howie's relationship with Piers has no connection to his relationship with...

    New judge for America's Got Talent... Howard Stern?

    How so? What about the combination of the two makes it a circus? And who's Shannon?

    Here's your 'stock' Gingerbread Droid 1 build guys

    I've had a few random restarts with PE5, but nothing too bad. My biggest problem has been a sync issue with Exchange e-mail. I have no issues with getting the account set up, but it will go hours without syncing (even though I have it set to push) and when I try to manually sync, nothing...

    Camera + Camcorder or DSLR for photo & video?

    I'd suggest getting a Flip camera for the videos. My wife and I have used ours a ton since our son was born a year ago because it's so quick and easy to use, plus it records in HD. They hook directly into TVs for easy viewing and the videos are easily uploaded to computers. We just...

    What are some good TV/cable series from the last 5 years?

    I'd highly recommend The Shield. Wrapped up its seventh and final season in late 2008. I'll second Dexter and Californication. Quite different, but both very good.

    Funniest typo you've made/seen at work?

    I once had a client end an e-mail with this: "I apologize for any incontinence." Hey man, your incontinence is YOUR business, not mine!

    Sirius subscribers: If Howard Stern leaves, will you?

    Right, because "obviously" there aren't any tightwads out there who make judgments about him without ACTUALLY hearing his show. How silly of me. Do you have any idea who we're talking about? Really?

    Sirius subscribers: If Howard Stern leaves, will you?

    If you didn't listen to him then (and still don't now), why do you think he's a moron and an asshole?

    Proof that an English degree is harder to get than an engineering degree

    I have both a B.S. in Computer Engineering and a B.A. in English and my personal feeling is that engineering is more difficult than English, but as was already mentioned, it does depend upon everyone's own personal proclivities toward one or the other. I've seen engineering majors both...

    Artie Lange attempts suicide

    It wasn't a matter of Stern wanting everyone to "play nice." It was a matter of respecting the privacy of Lange and his family since they made a very specific statement saying they would deal with the situation in a private manner, then release statements as they deemed necessary. Howard's...

    Custom Text Shortcuts in Word

    So the president at my company wants to be able to insert the company name, bolded and underlined, into any document via a customized keyboard shortcut. I don't think this is possible. Anyone know of a way to do this? Thanks.

    With the Verizon network, is there anything comparable to the iPhone?

    I have the Dare. It's definitely not an iPhone competitor, but it's a solid phone.

    which horror movie scarred you as a child?

    Nightmare on Elm Street had me convinced that whenever I dropped my blanket on the floor, he'd snare me with his blade hand when I reached down to retrieve it. The whole dream thing didn't stop me from fearing him while I was awake; as long as I was in bed, I was unsafe. Don't miss those days.

    Most memorable bumper sticker?

    I saw this one on the back of a late 80s Jetta and found it rather amusing: "No fat chicks allowed. They make my dub rub."

    Yeah, living in Beaverton + working by PDX = not enjoying this weather. I love snow and all, and it's been cool having so much of it to play in, but damn I'm ready for it to be gone so I can actually get to work in under an hour. I am, however, looking forward to leaving work in about 10...

    Man, the look on Olivia's face when Vic started his "confession" of sorts was priceless, though not quite as priceless as Claudette's when she realized that any chance of busting Vic had gone out the window. The juxtaposition of those two and their respectice reactions was riveting. I also...

    Up until this episode I felt this season dragging a little. I know it has all been setting up the final showdown between Vic and Shane, but I guess I've just been itching to get to the good stuff, and last night we saw it start to emerge. Can't wait to see how this ends up. I'm starting to...
