    Justified (Season 5 - Jan 7th)

    So Art is pissed at Raylan for being complacent in the death of Nicki Augustine but when Raylan does basically the same thing with regards to Daryl, he gets a "thanks" from Art. I understand we're talking about offing someone that tried to kill Art, but still, if Art were in character he would...

    Gardening

    The problem you're going to have, the same problem I have, is that in a couple of months, it's going to be too hot and there is going to be too much sun. Pick a heat tolerant variety and try to figure out how to keep them in the shade part of the day. My garden gets 9-10 hours of very hot sun...

    Next season will be hard to watch. I like Raylon and Boyd.

    Captain America: Winter Soldier

    I like how after you've fired hundreds of rounds of ammo at someone with no effect, you then decide you might have more luck with your knife.

    Torrents

    I know we're talking Torrents here, but have tried the public library? Lots of books on CD. Also, some Kindles will read to you and you can borrow books for them, also.

    Here in AZ wearing a real helmet might save more lives than loud pipes but they don't do that.

    Mr. Peabody and Sherman

    Maybe since I didn't play with Legos growing up but my dad loved Rocky and Bullwinkle and all the offshoots of that cartoon, including Peabody & Sherman, I fell asleep during the Lego Movie but thoroughly enjoyed this movie. I thought the story moved along at a good pace; no slow spots. Very...

    Torrents

    I don't know. I'm very naive about all this stuff. I was just using PirateBay.se with uTorrent. I'm not going to do that again.

    Shaving

    $9/ month is nothing to be proud of. I spend less than that a year for razor blades. Stop buying that disposable shit and get one of these: RazoRock TTO Safety Razor You'll get a better shave, too.

    Torrents

    I got that same letter yesterday. My internet was subsequently shut off except for a link to my provider which allowed me to acknowledge a use agreement before they would restore my service. All in all, pretty scary.

    Shaving

    Feathers didn't work for me either. The first shave was smooth, but the next wasn't and the third was awful. Astras were better but now I'm using these Crystals AKA Israeli Personnas I shave everyday and I can go almost a week with one blade.

    Health Care Thread

    Slight derail. I never give the doctor's office or Blockbuster (your example) my SSN and I'm never denied service. They don't need it, they know that and I think those forms were designed at a time when ID theft was not the big deal it is today. /derail

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    These are the ones I have. http://www.nuwaveperfectgreenpan.com/ I bought them primarily because I wanted a pan that was light like aluminum, but induction useable like cast iron. These are. I think the non-stick works pretty well also. We use them in the RV and use Le Crueset stuff at...

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    The new ceramic cookware is non-stick without the problems associated with Teflon. The stuff I have is also useable on induction cooktops. Here's a link to the ones sold at Kitchen Connection but you can get it lots of places. http://www.kitchencollection.com/coo...ramic-cookware

    I like turtles

    Get a Goldfish. Pet stores will run specials on 5 or 10 gallon tanks for $20-30. A 'feeder' fish (comet goldfish) can be had for less than fifty cents. You don't need to heat the tank; just use the simplest of filters that comes with the set-up. They're not cats or dogs, but they do respond when...

    The Netflix Thread

    Slightly off topic, but you can now stream 'Capote'. Philip Seymour Hoffman won an Oscar for his performance in this movie.

    Home Improvement

    I've used sound deadening material on outside walls over plywood and under the final finish, in this case it was cedar shake. I don't think it helped much. I would concentrate my efforts on the windows.

    Justified (Season 5 - Jan 7th)

    Ok, I lost the plot somewhere along the line. Why is Art so pissed at Raylen for the shootout on the airport tarmac? Maybe I don't remember, but I thought a bad guy got eliminated by some other bad guys.

    RIP Harold Ramis (Spengler)

    He also directed this. Check it out if you haven't seen it. I think it's gold.

    Streaming video from PC to TV

    So using Handbreak, a copied a DVD I own to my hard disc. I encoded only the 5.1 soundtrack. When I play this movie using VLC I get the Dolby Digital Soundtrack (5.1) and using an HDMI cable from computer to receiver, my A/V receiver confirms this. However, if I use PLEX and cast it through a...

    Thank you, I thought I was the only one who couldn't stand that sound. My neighbor's house is a plumbing disaster. Hot water fills the toilet. Good in the winter I guess.
