How to screw with engineers...scribble some random formula on the whiteboard in their conference room. Especially one that is clearly unrelated to anything the engineers do... Any ideas?

Probably heading up to Placerville/Camino this weekend to visit some orchards and procure some cider. Any recommendations for the better ones up there? http://www.applejournal.com/ca08.htm Thanks!

I need a new PC and don't have time to research tech these days. Criteria: $1k budget, must have at least a 240GB SSD, 8GB memory, intel CPU, nvidia based video card. I will scavenge my HDD for additional storage, optical drive, and wifi device, I may scavenge my power supply [assuming it...

So who got nailed? The bike was a smoldering pile in the #3 lane. If I had to guess it was one of those retro looking Ducatis (biposto?), but I'm no expert on ID'ing a charred tank (the only thing really recognizable). Short summary: witnesses followed the runner (who had flat tires) and...

http://thebaylights.org/ So they turn this crap on tomorrow night...how long before someone hacks in and individually addresses those 25,000 lights to show something completely unintended? And the second part of the question...what do you think the first completely unintended display will be...

Togo's has free tickets for it, so I picked some up. Was planning to hit it up...but I just found out it's put on by the same people that do the Contra Costa H&G show at the Concord Pavilion and that show sucked ass last year...nothing like the awesome one in San Mateo. So I was just...

Info on the Internet is all over the place and most of the hits are years out of date and from different areas... Just wondering what a decent price per square foot complete in place for new granite countertops might run for comparison purposes. Demo of existing crappy tile countertops...

PhilippiMes!

Would the UK motorcop look be legal (without the "police" bits of course)? I'm assuming it would be from 25500, as long as the color restrictions of 25950 were followed...but theoretically there's nothing preventing blue reflected light to the sides, is there? Yes, yes, there's no accounting...

Anyone know if/where you can get criminal case details online for San Mateo county? I have the case number but there are no juicy details available on http://www.sanmateocourt.org/midx/ ... Thx!

Seen on the streets of Oaklamd today... It's technically a motorcycle and I doubt it's exempt from the helmet law; so with a base price of $48k I'd rather just get a Harley personally. http://cycle-car.com/

Apparently people feel very strongly about this...I couldn't care less since I don't eat it, but just for fun...a poll!
