This aggression will not stand!
"You should never allow a starling to use a nestbox, as they will aggressively evict other native birds and may attack their eggs and young." -- http://www.sialis.org/starlingbio.htm
Hate is a strong word, but Eric's displeasure with Starlings is not misplaced.

I don't get the whole road rage thing. What was this guy thinking or trying to prove to you? "That will teach you to drive in a safe and responsible manner! Don't let it happen again!" What a dolt.
My soldering tip is to be sure to use a soldering iron or gun that has decent wattage so it can get hot and STAY hot once you start using it. You want it to stay hot so it can heat up your part or wires quick enough to melt the solder and then get it off the part. If it can't maintain temperature the part you are soldering sucks down the heat faster than the soldering iron can deliver it and you end up with cold solders as you said.
Snopes - YES! I think we all have relatives and friends that send this junk to me all the time. I always try to send a friendly reply with a link to the related snopes article but it doesn't appear to do any good. I just delete their emails now.
Food blogging has really come into it's own apparently. I am a console gamer and on a gaming forum I frequent we have a thread dedicated to cooking and sharing photos/recipes and a thread dedicated just to bacon. You could probably print a book from the recipes that have been posted there - a gamer cookbook!
I really enjoyed this one. Keep up the great work!

So I'm listening to the podcast while creeping along in traffic. Woman in front of me then cuts across three lanes of traffic with no turn signal or anything. I was screaming, NO NO NO! People need to stop driving like idiots!
Great Show!
