    beekeeping - cover me, i'm going in...

    After I heard a 4th unrelated person speak highly of raw manuka honey, I decided to look into the stuff a bit. Some folks definitely found religion with this stuff... and the prices back it up;) Here is an amazon link to what seems like one of the more popular brands, take a look at the customer...

    beekeeping - cover me, i'm going in...

    Do you have any thoughts on Raw Organic Manuka Honey? I know a good number of credible people that swear this stuff is the second coming due to some of it's health benefits (topically and when injested).

    First ride after tune

    It's been a number of years since I had my NSX (stock gearing/5spd) that was 500+rwhp, but I will reiterate what a few others mentioned.... wait for warmer weather. As a fellow mid-atlantic resident, I can tell you that my traction in the summer was entirely different than warmer weather months...

    Blockbuster Stock

    Not to be flip, but a one cent move to .03 is just as violent. Unless you or your wife are traders, I would caution putting money into any business unless you've done your due diligence on the underlying business itself and arrived at a favorable opinion of its current & future prospects. In...

    Stink Bug Problem

    I sprayed the house directly, but I elected to spray during a sunny afternoon when their activity was quite high and they were everywhere. Needless to say, a large number of them received a direct shower. I paid particular attention to joints and material intersections (siding to brick) that...

    Stink Bug Problem

    If you don't mind using chemical sprays, head over to Home Depot or local equivalent. They have plenty of sprays that will work. I used the 'Bayer Advanced Home Pest' spray. Comes in a big blue container. I sprayed most of the exterior borders/margins and focused on the windows and door frames...

    Celebrating X'mas with gf's family...

    Hopefully things went well. It sounds like you just set a high bar for yourself to match for future holidays if you choose to stay with this girl! Now you have a bunch of extra people to shop for every December:)

    Are Mercury containing compounds used in Root Canal Procedures?

    So I am clear, the 'IPS e.max inlay/onlay' is sufficiently durable and strong to be on the chewing surfaces of my molars? Thanks for the input by the way. My dentist will be impressed with my new lingo:)

    Are Mercury containing compounds used in Root Canal Procedures?

    Barney the Purple guy? I just looked up a picture of him and it seems that he found himself an orthodontist or a bunch of percelain veneers because his teeth look great these days:) I imagine it is the one you are thinking of though.

    Are Mercury containing compounds used in Root Canal Procedures?

    Thanks Doc. Other than gold, are there any materials that are suitable for high-use molars? Do the zirconia compounds you mention work for these teeth? I would love to have a non-metalic appearance on a couple of these molars.

    Are Mercury containing compounds used in Root Canal Procedures?

    The reason I am looking to replace some of my old fillings is not because of mercury, but because a few of them need replacing due to their age. Specifically, two of them have to be replaced. I am going to get non-amalgam fillings when I get them done for cosmetic reasons. I don't believe I...

    Are Mercury containing compounds used in Root Canal Procedures?

    I haven't had any cavitities as an adult, but I had quite a few that developed in my molars when I was 10-12 years old. Now 20+ years later, I am considering replacing my old amalgum fillings with non-mercury containing fillings. I also had a root canal in my front big tooth as a result of a...

    Celebrating X'mas with gf's family...

    This will be easier than you think. You will need 3 things: 1) Generic Christmas Card approx. $5 Address it to the entire family, write a note that wishes them well and thanks them for their hospitality 2) A Nice Bottle of Pinot Noir $20-$50 Ask your girlfriend, if they drink wine and make...

    guy loses 127M in Vegas

    I have rule that I stick to when gambling, I will immediateldy cut myself off after dropping $50,000,000. No exceptions. A penny more than that is just unacceptable. I have successfully maintained this strict self-imposed limit for my entire life:)
