Just slide your thumb nail down the crack for a bit and it will break the plastic wrap and make it a snap to take the wrap off. I haven't learned any tricks with DVDs though.

You could just get one of these.

I hoard these. I have stacks including a gold plated one which is nicely ostentatious.

Probably the best and worst would be the ATM card.

It's a blessing, don't get me wrong, but I'd probably have more money if I didn't have one.

I thought that too, buuuuut when it gets hot you are very likely to see some very cute girls running about with just a pair of spandex shorts and a sports bra. SHWING!

Worst Invention: Luxury SUVs. These things will never see a speck of mud in their lives. The only "good" use I've seen for them is towing horse trailers long distances. Who goes mud-bogging in a Lincon?

Yeah, lower the ground clearance and eliminate the truck chassis, and replace it with a car chassis, and you'll have a luxury wagon...

Seriously, at the opposite end of the SUV scale, there are the small, crude, Spartan SUVs that are great off-roaders - but HORRIBLE on-roaders. Ever cruise through suburban streets and expressways in one?

Yes, I have. Ford Bronco II. Very nimble, but without road-tuned suspension and suffecent noise and thermal insulation it was a pain to drive long distance. Get it off road and woah. Whole different beast, ground clearance really pays off.

I'd rather have a good off-roader than a good on-roader. I mean, an SUV isn't a car, making it drive like one ruins the whole point of the thing. Perhaps with air shocks that would auto-adjust to conditions... hmmmm.

I forgot about the new "rap star" packages offered by "luxury" SUV makers, those are the most useless ever.

Oh, somebody said the Excursion was bad because of its gas mileage... with the turbo diesel it gets better mileage than my car.

Yep, the Excursion gets horrific fuel economy from its available gasoline engines. And even with a turbodiesel, it can out-travel only the big Lincolns and Cadillacs (each with an equal amount of fuel), as far as comparing the Excursion with passenger cars is concerned.

And speaking of that Bronco II, why did Ford replace it with the larger Explorer (which was, and still is, relatively mediocre off-road compared to its predecessor)?

The ONLY true off-roader is the Jeep Wrangler, although they've degraded...the best one ever was the BRONCO!!, especially when jacked up about a foot

Audio-Technica "SoundBurger". A shoe sized, battery operated turntable which clamped over a vinyl 45 or LP. The ad showed a bikini-clad beauty on a blanket sunning herself at the beach .... with her portable "SoundBurger" playing an LP in the blazing sun on the blanket beside her.

They took it off the market quite quickly.

It's ok- sometimes it's hard to know if you head-fi guys are serious or not.

It depends how small you are in relation to your breast size. I knew this tiny girl who had breasts that were D's and it was all out-of-proportion and causing her back problems. She ended up getting a reduction. Her bulging disk problems magically went away after that.

But there are muscles that try to keep those things in line. If you're doing something like playing basketball, and you're ending up with two black eyes, those muscles start to pull and hurt.

And even for women who aren't doing strenuous things, sportbras are just plain comfier.
