I'm a huge horror fan, and every year I set out to marathon all of my
favorite horror movies. I used to watch the network marathons when I was
a kid, but they've gotten really bad about always playing the same five
movies over and over. That's why I ...
Please note that when I say PC I am referring to the standard desktop

A long time ago, in a galaxy not far away at all, the Catholic church
(among other institutions) burned books in an effort to make sure people
remained "pure" and weren't influenced by the "evils" of reading. In the
1800s people were afraid to have t...
I haven't put that much thought into it but from looking at it the most
direct way to design a stand would be with a "fork" holder similar to an
elongated guitar stand, that hooks under the outside square part of the
visor. You'd have to be careful a...
