You must be bored. So am I. Actually, there are many words you know.
They may look familiar (your past questions) at google answers. =)

I'm looking for reasonably priced football tickets to the Nov. 9th
football game between Texas A&M and Oklahoma in College Station, TX.
Ideally, I'd like to see a little phone work on this one, and I am an
alumni, so if you can exploit that fact, have at it!
Thanks!

Well. I'm pretty much looking for anything, anywhere. To me,
reasonably priced means as cheap as you can find them. I might trade
off more expensive for better seats, but anything over $115 - $120 a
piece would be a bit too much. I'm also looking for a group of 4 if
possible.
Actually. They are available. Single game tickets are not available
from the main ticket office until Sept. 12, but tickets are available
from various ticket companies.
I'm looking for posters windows with scenery behind it. The basic
idea is that it should look fairly real, so that if I hang it in my
cube, it might just make me believe I can look out of it....

I'm looking for websites about wade fishing in the Florida Keys.
Specifically, I'm looking for types of fish that can be caught wading,
and suggested techniques. Sites with daily/weekly fishing reports
would also be great.
Thanks!

I'm renting some co-location space for our web server. We have a
"tower cage" with just enough width for an upright tower. However,
it's 30" high and could likely fit 2 microATX cases stacked on top of
each other.
I want to maximize our usage of the co-location space, but most
MicroATX cases come with a 150w power supply and I'm worried this
won't be optimal power for our server hardware. I want to know where
I can get a case that is under 15" high, fits the standard motherboard
form factors and has a better power supply.
The quality of the case is important too. More so than price.

I'm looking for a candy bar expert out there.
Ok, here is what I want to know:
A) How do they get the peanut butter in there?
B) Why isn't there a seam?
C) How come the foil doesn't stick to the side?
D) Do they really put wax in their chocolate?
E) How many can I eat without getting sick?
Of course, other trivial facts would be appreciated as well.
Now....Go!

I'd like some research done on ISDN isps in Dallas, TX.
Specifically:
A) They should allow unlimited usage.
B) They should provide 128k service (2 channels)
C) They should not be affiliated with aplus.net or abac.com
D) They should, of course, be reasonably priced
E) They should have local dial up numbers for the 2 channel service in
either the 972, or 214 area codes
A list, along with comments about how the factors above were verified
would be most excellent. :)

I have a car that I'm currently thinking about replacing. I'm trying
to
decide whether it would be best to trade in my car or try to sell it
myself.
What is the current price difference between the two? What options
are
available to me in Mountain View, CA if I wanted to try and list it
for sale
myself? Are there any expenses related to title transfer for cars in
CA?
The car in question is:
'93 Ford Explorer
4x4
100,000 miles

Why do waterfountains shoot water out of two holes and combine the
streams? Isn't one sufficient?
I'm interested in pruning information for tomatoes. Is it a good
idea? What are the typical forms I can prune. I'm looking for good
solid information from reputable places, and pictures are always a
plus. Thanks!

Summary:
How can I force the "Internet" and "E-mail" links
at the top of the Windows XP
start menu to always open maximized?
Details:
The new Windows XP start menu has two slots reserved at the top for
links to
your web browser and e-mail programs. These links can be turned off
or
changed to different apps by right clicking on the task bar, and
clicking "Properties", "Start Menu",
"Customize" and looking at the "Show on
Start Menu" block at the bottom. Problem is, these slots appear
to be special
system object, as they don't offer the usual shortcut options when you
right
click on them. With a normal shortcut, I can right click on it,
choose "Properties" and set the Run option to Normal window,
Minimized or
Maximized. These internet/e-mail entries offer no such properties,
they seem
to Run as Normal all the time. As a result, if you resize your
browser, or if
a web page does it for you (with a pop-behind, etc.), it will restart
in the
same size as it was when you last closed it. This is very annoying
when you
close your browser window, discover a pop-behind and close it -- then
the next
time you start the browser it's tiny. How can I force these special
slots to
open up in Maximized state?
Caveats:
1) Don't suggest removing these items and adding them back as
shortcuts. That
doesn't preserve there spot at the top of the list.
2) Don't suggest using pop-up/-behind killer software, that doesn't
really
solve the problem.
3) Don't suggest the ctrl-shift-click trick, that only works if you
put the
browser back to the size you want it before closing -- which is what
I'm
trying to avoid.
4) Don't give similar answers that don't really address the root
problem. I'm
looking for some kind of registry entry that controls the Run state,
or maybe
some hidden shortcut that gets used that I *can* set Properties on,
etc. I
want a genuine, system level answer. If there isn't one, so be it --
let the
question go unanswered.

Why does the new Star Wars stink so badly?
What percentage of the U.S. movie-going population was either:
A. Revolted by the lustful looks between the queen and the young
jedi?
B. Slept throughout the entire movie?
C. Wished they had a clone of their own?
D. Wished Yoda had screamed "cowabunga" like a ninja turtle?
E. Wished Anankin had lost his tongue instead of his mother.
Why oh why is George Lucas letting us down? |
