Rice Cookers
Hey hey. We eat a lot of rice in our house (yes... that stereotype applies). And my awesome rice cooker that I've had for 7+ years has finally died. Can anyone out there recommend a good rice cooker that does all kinds of rice without boiling, bubbling over? I can't find the one that I used to have because my mom got it…

What Celebrities do you follow?
What Celebrities do you follow on social networking sites (Twitter, Facebook, etc)? And why? Facebook: Michelle Branch on Facebook - I like how she learned the guitar on her own and I like a couple of her songs. She seems down to earth. George Takei - He posts funny pictures. Tupac - Because I'm surprised that he has so…

Worst crash and burn ever
My buddy got a little wasted at the Cheese Cake factory and we had to sit there and watch him get up the nerve to talk to this waitress. It went something like this: Him: "Hi, you're very pretty. Do you get hit on a lot? Does it work?"... more mumbling that we can't understand... "I'm not very attractive but..."... blah…

Kindle Question
If I have an eBook that I purchased for Kindle, can I transfer it to another account when I'm done with it? Basically, I want to give the book to someone when I'm done. Can I do that? If not, is there another format/platform that's better for that? Thanks.

Gaming and Exercise
I think the launch of Diablo 3 has completely messed up my exercise habits. At one point, I was working out 5 days a week and now I'm closer to about 1 day a week while I game the rest of the time. I also came down with the flu and I still don't have my strength back yet. So since May 23rd, I've logged approximately 60…

Polar FlowLink. Is it worth it?
Hello. I've been using my Polar FT7 HRM for the last couple months and I'm loving it. I pretty much use it to make sure that my heart rate is where I want it to be during my workout. I am thinking about purchasing the Polar Flowlink which uploads my workout information to a website and lets me look at it. If you're using…

Les Miserables Trailer is out.

Sad day for BioForce.
I've been wanting to buy a BioForce home gym for a while because I'm always worried about dropping weights when I'm lifting at home alone. Also, I broke the lat tower attachment on my current home gym when I put too much weight on it. So I checked the company website and it's gone. I emailed someone on eBay who claimed…

Interval Timer
I pretty much workout at home but I have a tendency to drift onto other tasks between sets. It's not really a Attention deficit issue. Sometimes it's because I have to stop everything to stop my kids from fighting. Other times it's because I'm using my time between sets to watch TV and fold laundry at the same time. So I…

First checkup in years... what do I do?
I'm not gonna lie: I hate going to the doctors. It's always bad news. I'm scheduled to go tomorrow for my first checkup in 6 or 7 years. The reason for the timing is because I recently tested for high blood pressure while I was waiting for my wife to fill her perscription at Walmart. I took the test again a few days later…
