jsh177 For national chains, I prefer Caribou Coffee, and I really like Intelligentsia coffee where it is available. To me, Starbucks seems to be using inferior beans to what they used when they started. Maybe their explosive success caused this to happen. I still go...

jsh177 What a great bunch of upgrades! I really like the idea of being able to drag page elements around (a la Google Homepage, Pageflakes, etc.), and I like the new interface features. I am also interested in the "HTML sorties" feature, and I'll be poking around and...

jsh177 I have pretty effectively eliminated telemarketers from my life (thankfully). I only keep a cell phone, which I have registered on the national Do Not Call list, which seems to keep basically all of the telemarketers away, and I don't keep a land...

jsh177 I have been receiving e-mail alerts without any problem, so I'm not sure what's going on. I have a Yahoo! Mail account set up for mylot, and my spam filter hasn't been triggered by anything coming from here. Could it be a spam filter on your e-mail client?

villageanne @villageanne (8553) • United States 28 Feb 07

jsh177 I do not use sponges with dishes for the very reason that you describe. I do use a sponge for washing my car and cleaning the walls, bathroom, etc. But I try to keep it away from dishes and use alternatives for that very reason.

Would you Ever Make a really Large Purchase on Ebay??

Jshean20 @Jshean20 (14348) • Canada 27 Feb 07

Ebay is such a fun site to visit and man do they ever have some sweet deals sometimes! I can't help but look at their jewelry from time to time and I can't imagine how someone could be brave enough to fork out almost $7,000 for an...

jsh177 I can see about forgetting breaks with mylot for sure. There is something very addictive about mylot that I haven't found with other such services. I rarely write on regular message boards, for example, but I find myself checking in here regulary and making...

How large is too large for a class?

bishojo17 @bishojo17 (46) • United States 21 Feb 07

In your opinion, how big does a class have to be before you feel like you can't connect with the students anymore? My question comes from my experience as a TA at a large university. In the past, I have mostly taught...

jsh177 I have done a lot of teaching, both in classroom settings and one-on-one, and I've found that anything over 20 limits the level of reasonable interaction between teacher and student, and anything over 35-40 basically becomes a lecture with no interaction. With...

jsh177 I am a coffee fanatic. For me, coffee and productivity go hand in hand. Whether I'm writing, reading, working, or practicing my musical instruments, I always have a cup of coffee by me. I probably drink a good 5 or 6 cups a day at a minimum.

jsh177 I agree about the ads, although I have to say that the more I surf, the less I pay attention to ads. I have Google ads on my own site (which I make a bit of money from), so I naturally hope that people will click ads when they see them. The good thing about...
