Out of the Blue [May 06, 2009, 07:03 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
We seem to be getting a reprieve from a week of predicted rain today. This is
good news for me, as I picked up a seed mix to patch some of the bald spots in
our yard, and this gives a chance to go throw some of it around to take
advantage of the downpours when they presumably return. Having a couple of big
dogs means never having a picture-perfect lawn, but that's never been a high
priority for us; but it would be nice to get a little better coverage in some
spots, if for nothing else than to avoid the pups tracking as much mud into the
house during spates of weather like this.

Awesome, blue. I may have to find what that is. Parts of my lawn are sloped like / and I fear most seed n feed will just end up in the cul-de-sac.
Okay, so I just dug out Civ4 Gold as I intend to try some mods, and eralized how absofuckinlutely stupid the publisher was:
It's on 3CDs... and includes a bonus behind-the-scenes DVD.
facepalm.

wait... if you throw seed and it rains downpours... wouldn't that wash the seed away? wouldn't you want to wait till the rains are done, THEN spread the seed?
In a general sense, newly spread grass seed needs to be kept moist for about the first week, so if you can plant before steady rains, mother nature is going to do a lot of your work for you.
Specifically in this case, I got a patching mixture that includes grass seed, fertilizer, and mulch, and it tends to stay where you put it.

I feel like I need more Dr Pepper after I consume a Dr Pepper.

It isn't a recipe for a soft drink, says Greg Artkop, a spokesman for the Plano-based Dr Pepper Snapple Group. He said it's likely instead a recipe for a bitter digestive that bears the Dr Pepper name.
Strange because I feel bitterly digested after I consume a Dr Pepper.

I have the BD35, the predecessor to the BD60, and I am very happy with it. Great image quality, movies load quick and not other issues so far. Looks like you can do all kinds of steaming video on the BD60 which is pretty cool.
I have a couple Best Buy gift cards and think I am going to use them to get a Blu-Ray player.
Been looking at this one:

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=9260685&type=product&id=1218070353057
Anyone have one? Any other "budget" Blu-Ray player have such highly-rated picture quality? I was looking at the Samsung 1600 and LG 370 as well but the flip-down fronts on both are not something I care for when adding memory (the Panasonic uses a SD card instead of USB drive - nice!); the top-mounted buttons on the Samsung really won't work for my setup and the LG seems to have worse picture quality on upscaling regular DVDs.
Thanks!

Then again, my lawn looks like crap. But we got rid of the sugar maple tree that was responsible for it. Now we just need all that sap in the soil to break down.

but ingredients seem to include mandrake root, sweet flag root and syrup.
