I've been using a WMC PC for years now and I've been very happy with it. About 90% of what my family had previously watched was regular network programming so I purchased an HD Homerun and use the PC as a DVR, to stream HULU, and to watch the occasional DVD or Blu-ray from Redbox. Both of my kids have Windows 7 laptops so they use WMC to connect to the tuner and watch whatever they need. Sometimes they use the laptop screen, sometimes they connect to their televisions. I dropped to about as basic of a cable plan as I could and I'm saving a pretty significant amount every month. The HD Homerun paid for itself in a few months.

I have a pair of LG Tones that I absolutely love. I listen to music and audiobooks a lot when I'm doing things around the house or out jogging and I've screw up several sets of wired headphones. The Tone runs a bit over $50 and it's in-ear, but it's an awesome set of bluetooth headphones. Nice bass, but not crazy. Long battery life. There are a couple minor quirks to get used to (I've bumped the forward button occasionally), but it's worth it. I've listened from techno to thrash metal and they've all sounded good with these headphones. Currently alternating between Five Finger Death Punch, and The Coldfire Trilogy

I have a salary position at a manufacturing facility so, depending on the situation, I have a variety of shoes to wear to work. Casual black, casual brown, fancy black, fancy brown, and steel toe. Outside of work I have 2 pair of Sketchers, black and brown, a pair of running shoes and a pair of cross trainers, a pair of water shoes, a pair of sandals, a pair of winter boots and a pair of slippers. I also have pair of black patent leather for those extra special occasions. You may not consider them all to be shoes, but my wife sure does and she wants most of them gone.

3 pcs, 1 laptop, 3 android phones, 2 xbox 360s,1 Roku box,1 Wii,1 HD homerun,and, I guess, a Kindle. More than I'd thought.

I've actually had a throttle cable snag on a Mustang several years ago. The car was maybe 6 years old at the time. It's pretty terrifying to be going down the street and your car decides to start going faster even though you're foot isn't pushing down on the accelerator. When you pretty much need to stand on the brake to stop the car it opens your eyes to some of the potential problems that can occur from mechanical parts.

It is skimpy, but I would think that because they are using accelerometers as part of the loop that it would be pretty easy to have them put into the equivalent of crash test dummies in a passenger seat of a vehicle without the EM suspension. Drive it around a track and chart the results. Install the EM suspension and repeat.

Personally I think that it starts off great, has a pretty so so middle and a decent (though not amazing) end. Definitely read the first two, though. Very good.

My main home computer is currently my media PC in the living room so it's 50". Sure, it doesn't have the crazy resolution of many computer monitors, but it's plenty good enough for surfing the net, watching HD movies, or whatever else I normally use it for.

I'm not sure about the first two, you would access netflix rentals through XBL, so... Denied. Downloading game updates would also use XBL so I guess that violating the TOS also covers them blocking downloadable content.

I could "get navigate", but I couldn't construct a sentence correctly.

A little over a year ago I would have said that my direction sense was above average. I'd lived in the same basic area my entire life and could get navigate really well. Then I moved and now my wonderful direction sense pretty much sucks. I'm starting to get accustomed to the area and I'm able to get from A to C now without needing to go back to B most of the time, but I still occasionally have some issues. Over many years I think that I'd slowly started to subconsciously recognize different markers or to build a background map of how most of the major roads were related to each other. With the move, I need to start from scratch.

As most people that game and grew up in the `80's D&D was my first RPG so, even though I moved away from it to other games, I still get nostalgic thinking about "the good old days".
I don't remember the site, but several years ago some people were ripping Gygax because, apparently, it was the popular thing to do. I posted, saying that just because you don't like the product that the guy was currently involved with was no reason to slam him personally or to take away from the contribution that he'd made to a hobby that so many of us share. He read it and got back to me, basically saying that it was good to know that there are still some decent people out there. He seemed like a pretty nice guy from the few e-mails that we sent back and forth.
I work for a pretty huge company now, and I need to communicate with people of diverse backgrounds at all levels of the organization. My gaming experience has helped me do that effectively. Learning to look at things from someone else's perspective is an invaluable skill. Gaming also taught me that not every situation calls for a leader, but sometimes it's definitely helpful.
