My fiance and I randomly watched one of the Saw movies on a whim and now she wants to watch all of them... all 10 of them.

What have I started?

Though I watch a fair amount of violent video I attempt to knowingly avoid horror video. Also, the Star Trek / Star War's genre.

This seems like it will be quite helpful.

Thanks!

Dualstow, we expect more of you. You accused Vinny of still using his old computer while a new one he spent good money on sits "next to" the old one. Turns out that's not even close to true! It's probably a good 2 feet farther away than that. Please do some more fact checking before posti...

Took the modem out of the box, read all the instructions, and noted all relevant information related to it.

Question.

Can I use a splitter to send the Xfinity (Comcast) input to two separate modems? Or, am I only allowed only one modem connection?

Microsoft has unveiled AI PCs. Now, I don’t know whether I want one or not, but all I can think about, Vinny, is your yet unused dream machine sitting next to the old one you’re working on. O0 It is not sitting next to it. The one I am using is on this table (sitting on its predecessor). The unused...

Just google best modems for Comcast. I really loved Google’s On Hub router while it lasted. Now I’m using Fios’ router and have nothing to recommend.

I love borscht. I don’t know if that’s a stock photo or hers but it looks better than any borscht I’ve ever had. I thought maybe you’d be introducing her to Hong Kong delights.

Vinny, if Verizon FiOS is available in your area you might tell Comcast you are considering switching. Could be a good bargaining tactic to get Comcast to give you a better deal.

Makes sense!

Today I made some changes to my Xfinity (Comcast) account. I've been with them for many years and have been paying them $15 a month to rent their modem due to my inertia in not installing my own modem. With the change in my internet speed from 300 to 500 down (100 up with each) they are now going to...

This year I obviously set and all-time record by doing the first one a few weeks ago.

Was this due to unseasonable warmth?

No. I wanted to take care of all I can before I do my vegetable garden planting.

I'm getting ready to mow the grass - first mowing of the year/season. Oh the joy begins!image.gif Last year, for a variety of reasons, I did not mow my lawn once! Partly because I just wanted to see what would happen. As far as mowing goes in general ... my saying has been ... "I'd rather be r...

There are some ugly cats out there, too.

Rare, rare exceptions. In general, cats are almost universally objects of beauty!
