That book had a profound impact on my life. Totally worth the $10!

Do you not use the "I'm tired of this track" button?
True some tracks get played a little too often, but using the 'tired of' button works well for me. Best $30 or so I've ever spent on music.

Comment Notability + iPad + Zagg BT KB (Score 1) 364
Works pretty well for me. You can record your lectures and when you review your notes later, just tap a word to hear what was said at that moment. It does a whole lot more,too. Plus you can sync it to dropbox et. al. and have a PDF of your notes available from nearly anywhere. Add a stylus and you are in pretty good shape. I like the Zagg BT KB because it props up the ipad nicely. So I can flip from keyboard to stylus and back quick and easy.

Well said. Bad guys and psychos do not respect rules, laws, morals, or any other outside regulation. You can't legislate away evil. This is why the individual right to CCW and be able to protect yourself and your loved ones is critically important.

That's a good point. However, me for example, I don't use any of the services you mentioned, and I've been able to find users that have a good "interesting:not_interesting" ratio, on IG. So I dig it. But I get your point it is utterly redundant for a lot of people who are already using other social apps similar to IG.

As lame as most of the shit is on IG, there are some truly great users/pics. Nat Geo, Auto Addicts, Love Food, Discovery Channel, Red Bull, and One Earth are a few of the really good ones that I follow. Their pics are good enough that they don't use the filters. If you can get a good list of users to follow, it is actually a pretty cool app to waste time/battery on.

This is a 3 book story that I really enjoyed. Read it as a kid and still enjoyed it 25+ years later as an adult. Totally worth your time to seek out at your local library.

For reals, if you think all magazines suck, you either don't know which ones to buy or you are just hard to please.

I'm not sure about other subjects, but the UK motorcycle magazines are far superior to their American counterparts!!! Performance Bikes is an awesome mag, but its like $100+ a year to get a sub. in the USA

I really dislike this time of year. I am usually my most "broke-ass" during this time of year, for one reason or another. It really sucks to try and get a gift for someone or someones when you are broke. I'd rather everyone just eat, drink, and be merry. Fuck the gift exchanges...
Comment I'll stick with my BT keyboard... (Score 1) 93
For all the hassle, it seems it would just be more simple to use a BT keyboard. I've used the Zagg BT one and it is pretty slick, even doubles as a cover, which makes it a cinch to transport with the ipad.

Seriously...
All the banks suck on one level or another, like charging you $5 to cash your payroll check that is drawn off their bank. But, BofA has some of the highest suck factor. I dropped them and wish I had done it years ago...
