So after years of avoiding McDonalds, a few days ago something in me wanted a Big Mac. Turned out I didn't like it, probably should have sinned with a Whopper instead. The fries were good though. If you consider yourself normally a healthy eater, what junk food do you occasionally break down for?

Review of a memory foam topper on Walmart.com: Quote: I bought this in store and when I got it home and unrolled it, I was immediately disappointed. It was so stiff and crimped there was no way it would fit a queen bed let alone the king I needed it for. BUT I had an idea. I have a small steam...

I need to attach some metal brackets to fiberglass. I've decided not to drill and use screws due to the danger of the fiberglass cracking and also because it could be hollow. Is there any glue that could be recommended for something like this? Command strips from 3M have been considered and...

I saw a couple of threads where people had purchased the Lubricheck or it's predecessor. For those who don't know, these are the devices that let you check your TBN at home. What are people's experiences with them? Out of everything measured in a UOA, I am primarily interested in the TBN to...

I have a can of WD40 that has run out of propellant but seems to have a sizeable amount of liquid left. What's the best way to get the liquid out?

I'm overhauling my sprinkler system. My designs are complete and I know exactly what parts I am buying. The total cost of replacement parts comes to ~$300. But since I am in no rush to change the system now that summer is over (and fingers crossed we will get enough rain here), I'm wondering if...

Wow well done police, prosecutors and judge. Pin it on the middle aged mother instead of 3 gang members and then make her wait 17 years. http://www.buzzfeed.com/alisonvingiano/a...=mobile#2vuc0qq

I have a Bosch double oven which has started to act up. Firstly, the top oven, which is used the most, decided to come on by itself after it was used and turned off. After turn off, it spent several minutes (as is normal) running the fan to expel heat, but after that, it started up again. So I...

I'm looking at buying an E14 bulb on fleabay. The shape I need means I need the one with 3014 Leds. I of course need 110v but I was wondering why when there are listings of 220v versions there are 64 leds with a total draw of 3W while on the 110v version there are 25 leds with a total draw of 3w?

I am planning on painting my wooden garage door. The current paint is apparently by Kelly Moore. Should I stick with them or is there someone better? Will another company be able to match the current color easily? Any tips on preparation or technique?

A while ago I saw Chrome had a 64 bit version in beta. I declined to upgrade thinking it best to wait for the official version. I installed it the other day, and for the first time, I began to get memory warnings when I opened lots of tabs. I have 8gb memory and have opened many tabs on the...

Why is it that dealer's make it the customer's problem because they don't like to do warranty work? As I see it, they became dealers and signed a contract with the manufacturer. If they didn't want to do warranty work, they shouldn't have become dealers! Isn't this an "entitlement" mentality?

I'm going through a bit of a phase with salt and vinegar chips. It's always been my favorite flavor but I recently discovered the Boulder brand using malt vinegar and it's perhaps the best I've had. Tried some other brands afterwards and for me they don't compare. So now I'm intrigued on what...

So I'm getting round to servicing our double garage door. Until today, I hadn't realized that under the previous owner whoever installed or serviced it decided to put black grease everywhere. This has turned really sticky. So I need BITOG advice on the following: 1) I need to get this black...
