  • Why do all Pittsburgh's sports teams wear black/gold?

    I just became aware that the Pirates, Steelers and the Penguins all have black and gold as their team colors. Assuming that they have different owners, why would they all have the same colors? Do the colors black/gold have a symbolic significance? Are they the official city colors or is it just a mystery?

  • canon eos 40D digital Rebel xti ?

    I can't seem to get my canon ef-s 18-55mm II to work all the time. Sometimes it will allow me to take a picture and other times it won't.

    I must confess I'm new to digital photography.

  • What is going on with the LeaderBoard?

    I just noticed that MoparGirl's smiling face was missing, so I clicked on the leaderboard rankings and saw a bunch of new names ... and Mopargirl now only has 15 Best Answers, wtf? Mr. K and G have been demoted too.

    ...not to complain, but I'm not on the leaderboard and I know I have at least 80 Best Answers.

  • I was threatend on Yahoo Answers!?

    Couple days ago someone asked a question about the "turtle" graffiti on Detroit buildings.

    I was the only person to answer the question ( you can go to resolved questions and look for the question and his response) but in short the guy says, "I hope you die".

    Jeeze, who ever thought such a thing could happen. Not very friendly.
