    the bulb

    CFs are old news, the next big thing are LED light bulbs! Florescent light bulbs are 3 to 4 times more efficient than a standard bulb. LED bulbs are 10 times more efficient than a florescent, or 40 times more efficient than a standard bulb. They can come in different colors too! 10 year life and...

    What Magazines do you read?

    My wife gets that one, along with BUST and Giant Robot. So since I look at her mags too it's only fair I mention them.:)

    Howard Hughes hat

    Why are they calling it "The" hat, shouldn't someone call them on the carpet for that? It's obviously not the same one. And who would pay so much money without doing a smallest bit of research?

    Back to College, and back to "class"

    Here in Texas there is a chain called Half Price Books, a seller of pre-owned books. I've picked up a couple of old yearbooks there, they always seem to have some. So I would suggest the closest used bookstore.

    Parents: When May Our Children Start Dating?

    I was reading somewhere not too long ago (now I can't remember where) that some schools experimented with doing away with middle school and putting half at the end of elementary and half at the beginning of high school. The result was a decrease in a lot of problems apparently because having...

    The Automat is Back!

    I lived upstate in the 70's and we went to NYC to see plays and shop all the time. I remember seeing "Robin and Marion" at Radio City and then eating at some automat. I also remember being pretty scared when we had to go through Times Square back then.:eek:

    Bee Hat Company (now with images)

    I gave Art three Bee hats to play with, they were all Open Road western style. Maybe he has a qualified opinion on the quality to share.

    More Retro-Looking Cars

    If I wanted to try and find a decent one, then buy it long distance, ship it back to Houston, and hope it works I guess I could do that. It sure would be a lot easier to go to the Suzuki dealer.;) I once spent days trying to find a Morris for sale anywhere in the US with no luck.

    What you say drives me crazy.

    What's lame, that people sell old cereal boxes or that I'm a cereal nerd? Actually, nevermind. Lame would apply to both;) .

    More Retro-Looking Cars

    Here is a concept car making the rounds from Suzuki this year. Called the LC, it's 126.0 inches long, 58.1 inches wide, 54.7 inches high, with a 84.1 inch wheelbase. Powerplant (if you could call it that) is a 3 cylinder, 660 cc, DOHC front-mounted engine with a 4 speed automatic and front...

    Cigar, Cigarette...

    I'm an occasional social smoker, maybe one pack of Lucky Strikes a year. So I voted non-smoker.

    The Kitchen Door.

    Like there's any choice. Every new "track" home I go into is made the same way.

    What you say drives me crazy.

    I'm pretty sure it's always been spelled Cap'n. There are people on Ebay selling boxes and ads back to '76 and that's how it's spelled.[huh] But other than that I agree with everything you said (I'm just a cereal nerd, among other things).
