    Moving to Boston

    Looks like I will need to move to Boston for a couple of years. Any tips on riding in New EnglaMD would be greatly appreciated. Driving there was crazy, I'm sure that riding will be worse than LA and may be even worse than New York.

    Should I resurrect an mer-unibody 15 inch MacBook Pro?

    Someone gave me a pre-unibody 15" MacBook Pro. The battery has bulged, the person who gave me the machine had it diagnosed and the motherboard is fried. The screen is still good, though. I was thinking about buying a similar machine and swapping the screen, or buying the motherboard and...

    Betting pool on when US and allies will attack Iran?

    US just parked 3 Aircraft carrier groups in Persian Gulf. France is moving their carrier to the Gulf too. Moving these kinds of boats costs a good amount of cash, so I doubt that it's being done just for giggles. Iran is unlikely to allow inspections of their nuclear projects any time soon...

    PSA: Any calls, from a "bank" asking you to key in your card number are 100% FRAUD!

    If you received a phone call claiming to be from a bank, asking you to enter your credit or debit card number, this is 100% fraud. Ask your phone company to trace the phone number and report it to the bank that is being defrauded. Let's try to keep the interest rates on our credit cards low :)

    On the whole OccupyWallStreet lunacy

    The demands of this group are completely ridiculous. They don't make any sense and clearly show that both the people who wrote these demands and the people who support them don't have the slightest clue as to how a market economy works. For example: "Guaranteed living wage income regardless of...

    What's the best way to get a CDL?

    I used to have a truck driving license in Europe, except it expired a few years back. I used to drive big trucks, so I know how to drive them. I have a 6x6 truck with air brakes. I can probably find time to sit down, study and pass the written test. I am debating the following options: 1. Get a...

    Hi All, Being stupid, I am itching to get myself into something, that I for sure will regret later. Are any BARFers work on heavy equipment? I would like to pick your brain, especially if you are familiar with M923a2 (6CTA8.3).
