Time to upgrade as I have been carrying same Iphone for 4 years. Is best choice just to go with latest and greatest #15? I don't need all the new fangled stuff but do want best chip and storage. Also, been with Verizon since the beginning of company it feels like. Would it be better to go with...

I looked back at old Montreal threads and the newest one was 2015 so decided to start a new one. Thinking about heading up in October as part of a bigger Vermont trip. At this point I am most worried about getting a good airbnb and in a good part of the city as it will Fall and I am sure a lot...

So I was thinking about finally getting rid of the stack of books by my bed (that I increasingly don't ever get to these days) and going with a Kindle since they are 35% off today. Does anybody have any thoughts on the paperwhite (8 or 16 GB) vs paperwhite signature (32 GB and a couple other...

This was pulled from NY Magazine and is depressing as hell. It’s About to Get Incredibly Expensive to Watch Sports By Will Leitch, a contributing editor at New York since 2008 Do you like sports? I know that’s a weird way to begin a sports column, but then again, I’m writing for a...

Obviously this subject is going to come up almost every time there is a game thank's to the ACC's worthless TV deals, it might as well have it's own thread. Can someone(s) please explain the VPN deal in the simplest layman's terms so that some of us who thought we weren't tech challenged (but...

Today through Thursday at Benton Center in downtown Winston.

Good article in The Athletic about App St. I wonder if the ACC would ever consider adding them to conference. I know they are plenty of teams in the conference right now thta probably want no part of them as an OOC opponent. App State recruits reveling in program’s notoriety: ‘There’s something...

I recently went on a bike ride up in Asheville using one of these and they are pretty cool. You still have to pedal but it makes the steepest of hills bearable and makes biking in general more fun as you feel you can go anywhere. I see where you can buy a new one all the way up to $2500 but I...

Hawkins died right before show in Bogata Columbia. No details available but a devastating loss for one of if not the biggest rock band in world. Pretty sure this kills my date with them in Charlotte in May.

I have a 2012 F150 Lariat and my truck cover has broken and can't be economically fixed as most of the rollers are worn out. I looked at several new ones that fold up but are not completely waterproof and they run about $1100. If I were to go with a camper top that would be flush with my roof...

Since it's gonna be a perfect weekend, can somebody dial me up a go to recipe for these things?

What is the best alternative for a computer mouse? After some 20+ years of using one I am developing pain in wrist, forearm, and thumb from using this thing. I have looked at trackpads, roll ball mice, and trigger mice but no sure what is best call.

Does anyone subscribe to the Athletic website for their sports coverage? I am thinking about giving it a shot vs paying ESPN or SI for their coverage. Thoughts?

Is anyone sucking it up and doing any of it? Are there deals to be had?

I am now getting to where I have a lot of different passwords for a lot of different accounts. Being old school they are all written down in a safe place. However I would prefer something stronger and easier. How many of you use something like lastpass, 1password, dashlane, etc. and how does it...

Anybody here had it? Has the process gotten easier and more fullproof? If you are 50 and older does it matter?

I just saw a segment on CBS Saturday morning and this place looks amazing. Anybody been out here before? We are trying to line up our first trip out west and this looks like it would be pretty cool and easy to get to by flying into Vegas and driving up.

I am heading up to Valle Crusis for a week in September and staying on the Watauga River so I'll be able to do some fly fishing. What else is there to do up that way other than get away from this terrible heat in upstate SC?

By the time I get around to taking my vacation in August about the last place I will want to be is at the beach (SC or NC). Last year we spent most of our time in Boone fishing and just hanging out and relaxing. This year I'd like to be a bit more adventurous. We are gonna hook up with a buddy...

If you are given a name at a company to call on (say an email is forwarded to you) and on that email it has that persons cell number, is it okay to call them on it? This would be a person you have never met and were given their email by another employee. The reason I ask is many times in...
