The author shares a story that felt a little too close for comfort; despite having done a lot of different athletic things in his youth, he had trouble finding an activity that both piqued and held his interest. It's something we think many people, techies and geeks and civilians alike, have trouble with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cblockquote>I’m a nerd. I’ve always been one since I was a kid. I never grasped the rules of sports that other kids just seemed to innately understand. I lacked coordination, strength, and speed which resulted in me being picked almost always last for any kind of team sport. That was a regular experience for me since early elementary school all throughout the end of high school.\u003C\u002Fblockquote>\n\u003Cp>\u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fdiy.blogoverflow.com\u002F\">\u003Cstrong>DIY\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We here at Stack Exchange have something of a soft spot for DIY Home Improvement.

Now this is a step that, quite honestly, should not be undertaken by the faint at heart, or the inexperienced, when you really care about how the floor ends up looking. In our case, the floor was original 1940 hardwood and we figured a little damage was “character” (hey, at 67 years old, see if YOU look this good!). It’s a good thing we didn’t mind too much because learning how to handle a drum sander takes a bit of getting used to.\u003C\u002Fblockquote>\n\u003Cp>In a similar vein (and a close second) was \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fdiy.blogoverflow.com\u002F2011\u002F10\u002Fhow-many-ways-can-a-diyer-screw-up-a-drywall-patch\u002F\">this entry\u003C\u002Fa> about patching drywall and popcorn ceilings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fscifi.blogoverflow.com\u002F\">\u003Cstrong>Sci-Fi & Fantasy\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sci-Fi and Fantasy blog did a great entry about \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fscifi.blogoverflow.com\u002F2011\u002F10\u002Fscifi-stackexchange-in-practical-use-in-what-order-should-the-star-wars-movies-be-watched\u002F\">the order in which to watch the \u003Cem>Star Wars\u003C\u002Fem> movies\u003C\u002Fa>.

A bank without customer records is dead regardless of the cash on hand. A bank with all its customer records made public is at risk of the same fate.
