3 AnswersOther - Outdoor Recreation10 years agoCan a Blackberry sync with my computer?
I currently have a Palm Centro and I use it to keep up with my life. Calender, addresses, notes, etc. I was wanting something larger and have been looking at the Blackberry. I would want it to be my phone but also my PDA. Does the blackberry sync to a computer so I may view my calendar and addresses on my PC?
1 AnswerCell Phones & Plans1 decade agoMy birdhouse needs repairing, but when is a good time?
Let me start out by saying, I know nothing about birds, except that I adore looking at and listening to them. My husband built a cute birdhouse with 4 "apartments". Every year, each spring, I sit at my computer and watch them out my bedroom window. Tiny brown birds that sing. I tease my husband that they are carrying signs picketing the 'landlord' on unsafe living conditions. So here's my questions.
When would be a good time to take the house down and repair loose boards and exposed nail heads? I know it would be after little babies leave, I'm sure, but the birds are so small I cannot tell if they are grown or not. I live in Western North Carolina, if that helps.
Thanks

My daughter bought a DVD in England. When we put it into our DVD player in the USA, a warning comes up and says to check regional code. Is that the same as the country code setting on the DVD? and if so, what should we change it to? Or is she out the money and count it a lesson learned?
Thank you

3 AnswersDo It Yourself (DIY)1 decade agoPop ups - How do you identify?
My darling daughter went to a website that dumped a ton of junk onto my laptop from work I had home for the day. My anti virus and spy ware caught most of it, but there is still something lurking. I'm getting pop ups all of the time. Nothing offensive, just annoying. How can I identify the program lurking to delete it? Is it in my registry? Any ideas, short of reformatting my hard drive?

When I was young, and that was a long time ago, I use to be able to buy pistachio nuts from the Iran/Turkey/Iraq area. Surely there is a place to buy those wonderful nuts again without breaking any embargo laws. California Pistachios just have no flavor.

I know I'm grabbing at straws, but does anyone think that there might be a sequel to West Wing like they did with the Star Treks? I just cannot believe that they are ending that show with so many viewers. With the new administration, there are tons of stores left to do.
