Streaming Something Besides iTunes? - 16 years ago

Is there any work around that allows me to stream a Real Audio program via my Airport Express? I seem to recall that someone published a hack for this a few months ago, but I can't find anything and I suspect that Apple struck it down. Mind you, I could just be too lazy to do a proper search and might simply have over looked it, but any help with this would be appreciated. outcast

Re: Update on House Price Bubble - 16 years ago

The bubble may be ready to burst somewhere, but not here on the Oregon Coast. They can't build houses fast enough to keep up with the demand for retirement and second homes. Hell, just kitty-corner to the end of our driveway they are in the process of putting in 82 high-end condos starting at $400,000. Then there's the new "gated community" they are putting in downtown, not to mentio

Re: Just bottled my hard cider - 16 years ago

Man, I haven't made hard cider in about a decade. The last batch I made was abtly called "skull Buster." It was the smoothest stuff I'd ever made, and you had to be careful because if you weren't paying attention the alcohol would really sneak up on you. The damned thing packed a mule's kick for a hangover though, and hence the name "Skull Buster." I might even have a f

Re: work: Are you best at in-person/phone/email/Messaging for communication? - 16 years ago

Personally I find a note tied to a rock that is thrown through the window to be an effective form of communication. It has a strong initial impact and I find it leaves a lasting impression. Mind you, it's not bad for my window repair business as well! outcast

Re: Son's DS stolen at YMCA, need advice - 16 years ago

Yeah...young kids beaten senseless or put on chain gangs - that's certainly my image of the apex of the penal system. Freescotland, as long as you are just looking around, and don't touch or move anything so as to get any better views, I don't think you have anything to worry about. The reward sign sounds like a very good way to handle it. I fear this may be a painful yet valuable lesson

I don't understand how anyone could spend that much money just so they can sit there in their house for an average of four hours a day passively watching their television set. Achievements are made by those who do things, not by those who watch. outcast

Re: Bought new car. Manufacturer REFUSES to fix it. What do I do? - 16 years ago

"When we took it off the lot in 2004 for its first customer test drive..." Since this car is not street legal in the United States, doesn't the above line mean the car broke during the commission of a crime? Can you sue someone for a failure of equipment during the commission of a crime? outcast

Look in your phone book for an animal/wildlife rescue place and give them a call. That's what we've aways done when our cats caught something that was still alive but injured. If the little thing isn't injured why not just let it go? outcast
