    When I hit "submit" on my profile page, I get an error message stating email addresses don't match in the two spaces where you type them. Of course, they are the same. Also, the number of "dots" representing my passwords are numbering way more than the eight characters that compose my password...

    Eight years....can't complain

    Well...the battery in my 06 Yamaha V-Star 650 Classic gave up the ghost today. It's the stock battery that had been run down completely about three years ago. I counted my blessings in that I rode the bike up to the school yesterday so my wife could practice her skills and it turned over slow a...

    Craiglist is not that bad...

    Reason I say this, I sold a 1999 Chevy Tracker 4x4 in less than an hour. The car was in great shape mechanically but the interior was trashed as well as having the windshield and passenger side window broken out by an evil person my stepson dates. My wife bought the Tracker used a few years ago...

    Difference in Sansa Mp3 players??

    Reason I ask is that I purchased a new Sansa Clip Zip 4gb MP3 player to replace an older Sansa Clip that has 2gb of memory and is full of Mp3s. The Sync system in my truck sees the older 2gb player but not the new one. The kind lady in the system told me "no USB connected". The display shows...

    I just upgraded my cable internet to Cableone's 50mb speed...for the same price I have been paying all these years! Even less the first year! Anyway, I got a new Motorola modem that is also wireless but it seems either the wireless is not working as my laptop keeps trying to validate the pass...

    Anyone use Cableone for their internet?

    And if so, are you having connectivity problems such as slow to no connection at all? Seems like for the past week or more at times the connections is fast and then just slows to a crawl or stops all together. When I "ping" Cableone.net, most of the time I get a "request timed out" message...

    Rabbit problem!

    Any of you have any idea of how I can stop wild rabbits from using my driveway as a place to do their "business"? I have a gravel driveway with an approx 25x25 sq. ft. covered parking area that is covered in pea gravel. The rabbit population around here has tripled, or more it seems, over the...

    Craftsman DLT 3000...

    I own this mower, bought it new in April of 2004, and it has a 20HP Kohler engine. It has been trouble free for the most part. But it's getting harder to start and today it acted like it was starving for fuel. I suspected it was the fuel pump so I had my son crank the engine and work the...

    I recently received a Verbatim "Tuff & Tiny", 16GB flash drive to store photos off of my desktop computer. That computer is a home built unit approx 6 years old, running XP Home SP1.

    Bad power switch on pc?

    I have been going round and round with my 6 year old desktop that has recently taken to just shutting off. No error messages at all. Suspecting the power supply, I bought a new one with more power as I figured the original PS had seen better days as the computer stayed on most of the time. Plus...

    Deep sea ice crystals..

    Can someone with more intelligence than myself, please explain to me how ice crystals formed on that containment vessel that was lowered down into the gulf to control that oil leak? I didn't think that ice formed that far down in the ocean. Are they speaking of regular water turning into ice...

    I have a HP pavilion zv6000 laptop that my stepdaughter gave me and after a good "cleaning" runs pretty good, especially from my recliner to post this! LOL! But my question is about performance on battery power vs being plugged into 'wall' power. I have noticed after sitting all night on...

    My wife and I are interested in buying a metal detector to use on her house place as well as the surrounding land that's in the family. An old civil war cannon "ball" was found in a tree on the property about 100 years ago by her great-grandmother so we hope to find other things on the property...

    Oil for Honda Rubicon..

    I bought a 2007 Honda Rubicon back in August with just a shade over 150 miles on it. The atv was in mint condition and the price was right. I changed the oil and filter and used valvoline ATV oil but that stuff is too expensive for me, especially where I have to buy it plus using 5 quarts in the...
