All Ipod Users
The other day something rather unfortunate happened: my hard drive containing all of my mp3s suddenly went dead and needless to say, all my mp3s are now gone. From my computer at least. I have them all on my Ipod, but that damn Steve Jobs won't let me download them from the Ipod back to my new...- Hiker

Apartment advice needed near Yonkers/Newark
The only area in Newark I would say is ok is the Ironbound. Having said that, the commute from Newark to Mahwah would be a real pain in the neck. I would definately look around Mahwah itself. Mahwah and the surrounding area is relatively quiet, very safe, and even a little picturesque (Not Grand...- Hiker

Apartment advice needed near Yonkers/Newark
If you need to be able to commute to Mahwah, I'd look for something west of the Hudson River. Is there any reason why you are looking at Yonkers? In order to get to Mahwah from Yonkers, you have to take the Tappan Zee Bridge which is not all that direct. Living closer to Mahwah either in NJ or...- Hiker

What are some of the actions from other drivers that bother you
Other than people ignoring their right of way signalling me to go, I would have to say that people who do not keep right except to pass piss me off the most. Many of the issues mentioned earlier would be reduced if people would just keep to the right and use the left lanes for passing only. Of...- Hiker

Cycling shades: Rudy Project or Oakleys?
I am pretty happy with my Half Jacket XLJs. I use them all the time for cycling. The interchangable lenses are great for the different situations and times of day that I ride.- Hiker

Could anyone who remembers some pre-calculus please help me?
Man, any of you guys that get to use calculators, open books, or notebooks on exams have it easy. There are very few classes in the math department in my school where you can use a calculator, and virturally none of them allow notes or open books. I went through Calc 1, 2 and 3 without a...- Hiker

what are your other hobbies besides audio??
In the summer I like to go mountain biking as much as possible. It doesn't have to be technical. All I need is a rough path, and some nice hills so I can get a good workout. I also hit the gym 4 times a week for lifting. Other hobbies include: Being a Yankees fan Watching movies of all kinds...- Hiker

Just discovered My first gray hair....
Be happy its gray instead of no hair! Recently, I have been noticing that my hair is slowly thinning. At first I was really worried about it, but it doesn't bother me too much anymore. I would still prefer that it was not happening, but I think I might beat nature to the punch and shave it...- Hiker

Looking for a new watch.
I suggest taking a look at the Seiko Automatic Diver SKX779K Stainless Steel, Cal. 7S26 (more commonly refered to as the "Seiko Monster): It is a good quality watch that is listed at $400 but can be had for $150 at any Seiko Company Store. Its pretty popular with watch lovers as an...- Hiker

Arc'teryx = Really Nice Jackets
I don't have one of their jackets, but I have an internal frame pack. It is the most comfortable backpack that I have ever used. If the build quality of my backpack is representative of the rest of their products, I would say those jackets should be quite nice. I don't think I have actually seen...- Hiker

What foods is your locale famous for?
In my temporary home of Newark, NJ, there is quite a bit of good Portugese and to a lesser extent Spanish food. There are some REALLY nice restaurants that serve excellent food for relatively good prices. The value is great, and I don't think that you can find better Iberian food anywhere in NJ...- Hiker

Firefox 1.0 Released
The only thing I can't seem to find is how to force a new tab to open when i click on certain links instead of opening a new page. In the help menu it lists this as an option, but when I go to look in "options" where it is supposed to be, it does not exist. Anyone else see this?- Hiker
