Yup, goodwill, ebay, craigslist, or heck even freecycle may net you one. Otherwise you can hunt for a new dvd/vcr combo.

That product comes up as a laptop. It uses a sata interface for the HDD which should be 2.5" form factor. I can't find the listed sata interface speed ie: SATA, SATA 3.0, etc. But SATA 3.0Gbps should be about right. The OEM speed for the laptop is 5400rpm, you can upgrade to a 7200rpm for a bit better disk performance but it'll cost a few pennies more. The OEM size is listed at 500GB. Personally I'd get a Western Digital or Seagate brand. SATA 3.0Gbps (interface speed) 32 or 64MB Cache (interface storage) 7200 RPM (actual maximum disk speed) 750GB+ Storage size Th

Yup. My mother sees two different doctors, one a general, the other a RA doc, and they'll only provide so much pain meds to her and her RA is advancing and she can no longer stand and asked about upping her meds so she could at least get around and they referred her to a pain clinic even tho it's nearly impossible to get her out in the car now to go to her other two docs every 3 months.

That's not an e-cig.. that's a bong!!

Choot, the only thing I'm skeered of is Soap Sally. Soap Sally: An old crone who wandered the streets after dark, carrying a croaker sack over her shoulder, looking to snatch up bad little boys and girls. When she got a good mess of them in her toe sack, she would take them to a secret location and make soap out of them.

Fire up the smoker tomorrow, put two pork butts on it, serve one tomorrow night for almost-MIL, and the other Sunday for mom. This will be with all the trimmings.

Can't recommend anyone, but from reading some hardcore home improvement forums if you have a water penetration issue the only way to have it done right is to have them dig out around the foundation and waterproof from the outside, otherwise you're just creating a situation for the foundation to become waterlogged which will rot it out faster than doing nothing at all.

About 15 years back had a really good friend pass away from a brain tumor after a two year fight, the last months of which he spent at his parents being given morphine. After his death the Cobb Co. Police were notified by the hospice within hours of his passing and they showed up the parents house and made them flush the drugs as they had no proper disposal procedures in place. It was a bit of an awkward thing to have them show up and have the parents do this at the exact moment of them trying to deal with the grief, but the officers were respectful and lamented they didn't have a better

Just a little trivia Pac-Man was first advertised here in the states as Puck-Man.. but Namco quickly changed the name when they got word of their advertisements being defaced by folks changing the P to an F. You can also re-live all these original games on your PC by downloading M.A.M.E. (Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator) and the game roms.

I dunno about that... I doubt I'd trust my justice serving on a cheap misfiring bullet or a no-name brand rope. I mean, if somethings worth doing it's worth doing right

I know what kind of fan you're talking about and typically if you flip the switch and don't hear the screaming of the motor trying to turn the belt against seized fan bearings it'll be the motor, plus they kinda stank when they go. But then again, it could just be the switch.

Saw a small tool rental place off of 278 in Dallas today across from Seaboard/Villa Rica Rd. where Chicken World used to be.

It's most likely the Network Interface on your PC is either failing hardware wise or Microsoft pushed a driver update and you have it set to install optional updates automatically. You can try to rollback Windows to an earlier time when it was working or download and reinstall drivers manually to see if the latter is the case. If the issue is the former, and really the network light on the router/hub will light up as long as there is a connection regardless if the device plugged into it is working, then all you're left with is getting an add-in network card or wireless usb network stick.

DIY "inside" Storm Shelter Link. EDIT: Wow, I just looked over that link fully, and would say that's how to "not" build a storm shelter, guy spent way too much and it wasn't built to any decent spec.

My mother kept getting a call from an Indian person saying they represented AT&T and was attempting to convince her that her computer was hacked and sending out malicious things and wanted her to give him her CC# and pay to have the issue resolved. He kept up calling her back until she said she had his number via caller ID and asked where he was calling from she was going to call ATT customer support.

But are you getting restful sleep? You may be depriving yourself of REM sleep by taking the valium before bed and should discuss this with your doctor.

Seems there's been some issues with CFL bulbs destroying light switches faster than the normal "wearing out" over time. Be aware that if you hear crackling or arcing in your light switch they should be replaced. Source

This one time I cooked some BBQ so good it hurt.. Cos every time I took a bite I had to slap myself to make sure I wasn't dreaming!!!

Dayum.. I'm not even into the "lifestyle" but I might just steal him away.

I guess if you use the tires off the cars to put around your trees and mailbox it's fancy landscaping?

One summer when I was about 10-12 years old a friend and I found a bunch of old cars out in a field, these were like late 50s and early 60s Chevys and Cadillacs those old big nice chrome covered hooptie cars. Most of them had smashed up front ends but they were still cool as hell, and if you battled the wasps off you could sit in them. We went out to them several times that summer but it wasn't until late summer we started noticing something funny.. the dashboards were all dimpled in, there were bad cracks in the windshields and we got to looking closely and all the insides cars were covered w

TBH I've never seen a pic of her outside of a movie that looks like she does in the movies. She's always been homely and haggard looking in any pap pic.

Put a spoonful of cinnamon powder in your mouth and try to swallow, the dry powder is near impossible to choke down, might as well be baby powder. The danger is from inhalation into the airways/lungs. I don't know if that would be considered "escape", "fitting in", or more something along the lines of kids being bored. Some scouts were doing near the same thing with a mouthful of marshmallows and trying to recite something, this was stopped because it was easy for a kid to get choked and suck a marshmallow down their windpipe which is near impossible to remove in a timely fashion.
