I know it sounds like an impossible concept, but yes, it is possible to buy tires online, and save money.  I’ve actually been doing it for many years, even in pre-internet days via mail order.  Just placed another order today, in fact, exactly two years from the last time I ordered.  It’s easy, it has some beneficial advantages, and yes, it saves some cash in the process.

I’m stuck here without my CDs–most of them are in storage right now.  I’ve been increasingly interested in setting up some kind of central music server, and using a remote device via the network (hopefully wirelessly) to play the music on systems throughout the house.  It’s just in the early planning stages right now, but I’ll keep everyone informed on the progress.  My early sketches are below.
