Yeah, he comes in here and shits on the show after every episode. No reason to respond to him.

Altering in what way? I do 95% of my post processing work in Lightroom. I do a little bit with elements but not a lot.

For those who got their woman a Hitachi, but it is proving to be a little too powerful for them, you can buy a $20 speed controller for it which will allow you to tone it way down. Also some of the "attachments" that you put over the top will dampen the vibrations a bit and also allow you to...

I would rather be blind, I want my junk to continue to work, plus I'd get a free dog who is awesome. Would you rather fight 1 horse-sized duck or 100 duck-sized horses?

Yeah.... pics pls!

Just so you know, Lucy Pinder won the whole thing last year, she was the "Queen of the Hardwood." Just sayin...

WA is pretty much the craft beer capital of the U.S. and our governor wants to tax the craft breweries into the ground while giving the big three a tax break. I hate my state sometimes. http://www.washingtonbeerblog.com/el...bout-beer-tax/

Barry Zito, 2 shut-outs to start the season and is batting .750

Local sports talk station does a contest every year called "The Dance." They pick 64 celebrity women and put them against each other in a NCAA tourney style bracket. People can vote on each match-up either by calling in during the 'match' or by online voting. Person with the best bracket wins...

This is the thing, your Yelp page is there whether you "go with them" or not. When you search for my restaurant on Google, after my website, the next thing that shows up are Yelp reviews. You can stick your head in the sand about it but if bad reviews are piling up there (for whatever reason)...

Yup, they are extortion artists. But unfortunately people still use Yelp to make purchasing decisions. Maybe in your industry what is on your Yelp doesn't make much of a difference, but in the restaurant industry or retail in Corndogs case, we don't have the luxury of ignoring it.

Yelp has been accused of using some under-handed tactics to get you to sign up for their paid services. You can Google around (try "businesses hate yelp" or something along those lines) to see what people are reporting. I personally haven't had a problem with them (yet) but have sat through...

Hey Corndog, one thing I was going to suggest to you is that you might want to be a little more discriminating when it comes to sharing sales numbers and financial information. There is a local bar/pub that I love eating at. The guy who runs it has a background in construction, not business...

One thing about the 11% return, you should also include any matching contributions by your employer when figuring that out. So matching+return might equal more than 11%. I actually had the opposite experience with financing. I had already gone to my bank to figure out what I could get and was...

EMP is a must. Pacific Science Center can also be fun. They have these Duck tour bus-boat-thingies that people seem to love (but I haven't done them).

Ummm.... pretty much go to the Play store, search "Google" and download everything made by "Google Inc."

Doesn't natural gas cook at a lower temperature than propane?

You can probably find free streams, but really MLB.tv isn't very expensive, will ensure you get all the games and has lots of other neat features that I think make it totally worth it.

I got my grill from Costco, propane, not natural gas (can they be converted?). It has held up very well and was probably the best value in features-to-price ratio. I have the infra-red and I love it. It can help heat the whole grill faster and when cooking steaks, I use the method outlined...

The thing about both the Niners and Hawks "read-option" QB's is that really neither of them actually run it that much. The only time the QB's are actually keeping the ball is when it is WIDE open, otherwise, it really is just a decoy to force a defensive player to stay with the QB and not go...

I think I might have covered this in Corndogs thread, but dealing with merchant processors can be a pain in the ass. There really is no industry standard when it comes to language and structure of the contracts. They can be nearly impossible to decipher and really the only way to tell how much...

How long are you going to be gone and is the fish shop going to be closed during this time? I realize employees creates a whole new level of busy-work in training, monitoring and dealing with payroll/taxes, but I am with Lyrical, if you have customers waiting to be helped, have work on the...

Really? Because in the restaraunt industry the rule of thumb I have always heard is that when you are a new opening, for around the first 6 months you can expect to run around 25% higher than what you can expect your "normal" sales level to be. Because of the newness factor and all... Not...

Please refer to them as the World Series Champion Giants when talking about how much they suck. Thanks.

Also don't forget, while the cap has been stagnate for a few years now, pretty much everyone is expecting a jump into at least the $130mil range starting next season. These deals that seem like they are cap-killers now won't look like that a year or two down the road. Probably a great idea to...

Posey wrapped up for 9/$167. Probably the homer coming out in me, but I love the deal.

So I already have 30 miles and about 5500 vertical feet in on my mountain bike this year. Considering that I usually don't even think about starting to ride till May, I'm pretty stoked about it. At my favorite riding place they have put a lot more effort into building the trails with drainage...

No, they have a setup where you jump off while hooked to a set of cables that slow you down as you near the bottom. If you didn't know it was there it would look like people were offing themselves. And no, I didn't realize it was the ghetto beyond Stratosphere, but after running into the...

I actually found a (at the time) free Kindle book by Tony Northrup titled "How to Create Stunning Digital Photography" which actually was a pretty good read. It really did a great job at helping me understand lighting in ways I never caught on to when I took classes. It may not be free now...

I live in the heart of Seahawks country. Seattle fans are impossible to talk sports with. In their world, one of two things ever happens with their teams, they either win because they are the greatest team ever, or they lose because of(insert lame excuse here, usually the refs). Never, ever...

Good tip. When I go on business I try to stay cheap. I made the mistake of staying at the Stratosphere this time around. Not only is it like a $15-$20 taxi ride to get to the strip, it is also a dump. I thought I could handle the walking, but not only is it a long walk, it is pretty shady...

I have never looked into CL ads other than for hiring, don't mind me asking what do they cost?

Well obvious answer is your local bike shop. They will usually blow-out last years models or whatever isn't popular at the moment. Usually you will have even better luck finding a deal like that if you are an odd-ball size. For example, my local bike shop had great deals on any 26" wheeled...

Just going to say, don't forget about all the little expenses as well. Credit card processing fees, payroll taxes, B&O, repairs and maintenance, etc. I'm sure you were just doing a basic breakdown and have all of that covered, but it is easy to forget all the nickle-and-dime stuff that adds up...

So I have been taking this supplement called 5-HTP. I am not an expert, but the way it was described to me as an naturally occurring amino-acid that is the chemical precursor to serotonin. In addition to helping with insomnia it has also been recommended to help improve mood and even for...

Just got back from Vegas myself. Was mainly a work trip so I spent a lot of time schmoozing and getting free beer at different cocktail parties/events, so I didn't have much time for exploring. But something I did come across that saved my life after flying in late was Strip Burger. It's a...

I stayed at NY-NY once, room wasn't much better than Holliday Inn quality, but I wasn't exactly forking out for a honeymoon suite or anything.

Happy St. Patty's Day.

Seahawks were only a 1/2 game behind the Niners last year despite their offense being neutered the first part of the season. They blew out the Niners (granted in Seattle, but still made them look silly) and were a blown-out-knee away from NFC Championship rubber match against the Niners. Now...

I'd much rather end up on the refund side of things than the owing side of things, just not a lot. I have everything pretty dialed in to where we get between $0-$500 back each year.
