I like to get my hands on the cheapest edition I can in the best condition at that price. If the words in the book are the same as a more expensive one, I’m getting a better value, in my opinion. Then if it’s a story that becomes...

Yuki For me, it all depends on the book. My current Kindle book wishlist on Amazon has about 70 titles on it last I counted. Most of those are older books that I've already read and/or own/used to own a physical copy of, so I'm not in a hurry to buy them. I...

I was going to go to my mechanic's place this morning, but then I remembered I had signed up for AAA. I called AAA this morning, and they gave me a jump. He (the AAA dude) recommended I get a new battery soon. I said soon is now...

Yuki AAA is awesome. Well worth the costs of the membership for the convenience alone. I pulled this week's paystub yesterday morning and initially thought that I'd been shorted by a bit more than ten hours because it wasn't where it should have...

Yuki It really depends. The biggest determining factor is if you can use a known device (one you've used to sign into your Google account before) to begin the recovery process. Ideally it will have been recently used to access the account, within a few months at...

The picture is of the pumpkin cake my sister made for our Thanksgiving. It was so good! I am not a dessert person at all, but I sure enjoyed this cake. I was wondering about you all, and dessert. What is the last one you had?...

Yuki Oh, that cake looks fabulous! We baked an apple pie for Thanksgiving, and my husband insisted on getting one of the pumpkin cheesecakes from Costco. The last one I had was the cheesecake... absolutely delicious served with whipped cream, but I have [i]so...

Yuki @allknowing I used a semi-permanent dye, so it washes out over time. For my hair specifically, it looses a lot of the bright color in the first month and then gradually keeps fading until there's just a faint tinge of blue left.

Yuki I dunno, it's kind of nice to see that younger people are rejecting the stigma of going gray. I had a pretty obvious silver streak by the time I was 20, and these days about half of my hair is naturally silver. It doesn't bother me, but I did dye it...

There are some animals that dont close their eyes even when they sleep. According to scientists, fishes dont close their eyes, often, not that they dont close their eyes atall. Do you know any other animal that shares this trait?

Yuki I thought it was excessive, too, but it turns out that a single camera module doesn't cover everything that most people want to photograph with their phones. A "normal" camera would have a larger, more versatile lens that would cover more than one of those...

Yuki @much2say The black light is way easier than the counterfeit pens. You just hold the bill under it and the strip on them glows. No false negatives, either. It wasn't that I accepted it, just that they really want to see us verifying the UV strips on...
