If I sell the shitty civic in my garage for ~$1000, autoanything.com has hitches for ~$160 and electrical for ~$30.

Airport replacement (or reseating)

From what I've read, it seems there might be a slight issue with Apple's airport driver, but it's also a well known fact that Apple laptops (even the older models) can sometimes have their airport cards or antenna come loose. If I get up the courage to actually open my macbook, I'll need the following tear-down guide to safely do so, so that I can reseat the antenna connectors and airport card itself.

spectrial goodness

I've been reading about The Pirate Bay's trial since shortly after day one, since various sources started translating the procedings. From what I've read through torrentfreak.com's blog, I really wish I could understand swedish to hear all of the hilarity first hand! It's almost like some sort of silly law tv show, like Judge Judy. ;-)

Hierarchical data in MySQL (nested sets)

http://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources/articles/hierarchical-data.html

Gives a great explenation of using left/right values to identify boundries of nested sets to make very efficient tree queries. Insertion and removal isn't too terribly difficult (at least through the use of MySQL functions). This'd be great if I ever needed to make a highly efficient tree set in MySQL.
