Been making mead since 1995. I've always done dry, still meads, and aged them at least 18 months. Mesquite honey from New Mexico is one of my all-time favorites... has a great woody quality in the final product. I've also experimented with addition of grape tannin (small amounts only), which boosts ...

I've been playing guitar for about 10 years now. I recently reintroduced myself to finger picking. The reason I lost my interest in it before was because I bite my nails and can't seem to keep my nails long enough or strong enough to use them to pick with. I do just as well using my actual fingers,...

Looks like that "1 speaker" actually has at least 7 drivers in it. Check out:

after making the share on the main computer, you probably need to reconnect to the share from the other computers using the printer control panel app on the computers that the printer isn't plugged into. Add printer, network printer, then you need to know the share name and computer name of your mai...

Hi John (MrSmooth), I love your avatar. The webkit.org mention you refer to is exactly what I refer to as well, the rendering engine. Not the javascript engine. And as I'm sure you know, Google, when announcing the product, publicly thanked Apple. Also, you'll notice today that they share the same ...

WebKit is the name of the Mac OS X system framework version of the engine that's used by Safari, Dashboard, Mail, and other OS X applications. Edit: And Chrome is built on Safari, that's a fact; not sure what this is about. If you read Google's own info (page 12 is the ref) they only mention webkit...

To break the old style WEP encryption would take 5 minutes or less, it was replaced years ago with WPA, which was replaced with WPA2. WPA-PSK is WPA with the use of a pre-shared key, which is fine for home use. Configure the router to use WPA-PSK and then enter the same passcode (key) on all the co...

Sunday! Hendrick's on the rocks Slice of cucumber from the garden, sprinkled with Malden Sea Salt That's no martini, that's Gin Salad! 8) Seriously: no vermouth, no martini. Vermouth is what makes it a civilized cocktail, no vermouth, you're just swilling gin whether there are vegetables in it or n...

Hey fellows, today I went to the adult beverage store and purchased a bottle of single malt scotch and some E&J brandy. I'm really not sure how to drink these. Ice? Cold, no ice? Room temperature? Room temp with ice? What's the proper course of action? The Speyburn would be best room temp with ...

There is an orthodontist office I used to drive by in Albuquerque... he is still there I believe... Dr. Ken Hurt. I used to laugh every time I'd drive by. Then there are normal names, I knew a guy, "Donald Robert Lastname the 2nd." He was from the South. His family all called him Don Bob T...

I remember that story from 2004 back on coffeegeek! wow! What a great story, it was good to read it again. That guy is a hero.

I was kinda hoping you'd post it!

You can also consider some of the Asian Pens.... I've bought from isellpens.com ... I have a Hero 100. you could check out the Hero #618. Duke and Haolilai have some descent ones too...

Another vote for Fountain Pen Network, and I also like BoardGameGeek and CoffeeGeek, although I rarely post on the latter anymore. Occasionally, I also post on the Monachos.net Community forum.

I do see a lot of dark suits as well, but since it IS formal night, we like to dress up.? I've always found a a very nice tailored suit (no JC Penney Specials, you gotta spend hundreds) to look way nicer and classier than a tux. Tuxes, to me, are not nearly as dressy as a fine suit... to me, shipbo...

But it would not make me smarter than 'the mac guy', in any way. It would fill a need that I have, which may be different than the need Felix or Oscar has. My 2 cents Zach Good post, Zach, and good points. I'm certainly not a typical user of any OS as a developer. As far as Media center computers g...

They are made for people that are techno-phobic and want an appliance that does simple everyday things, that's my opinion. Interesting opinion. Almost all of the professional software engineers I know have switched or are considering switching to macs for their home machine. Most of these are the m...

i am against macs completely, I've grown up with PC's all my life, and honestly if you take care of the PC it runs fine... After spending 20+ hours failing to de-trojan my windows 2k box, and failing (none of the software patchers would fix it, and newer ones won't run on 2kpro) I deicided PCs were...

I tried the Irish Breakfast bag this morning and enjoyed it much more than the English Breakfast. I guess I like the teas that are stronger. Up tonight is one of the Grey teas, LOL. Used half a packet of Sweet and Lo. My wife prefers Irish Breakfast too, because it makes a nice strong cuppa. A grea...

...Either way, it does not have the bite like I get at the Italian place up the street that I know uses a commercial coffee brewer.... "Bite" is not a quality I associate with properly brewed tea. Yes, it will have tannins but "bite" sounds like overbrewed and/or stale tea to me...
