    How do I tell if my watermelon in my garden is ripe?

    Growing watermelon for the first time. They look good, but I have no idea how to tell if they are ripe. I know how to pick one out at the grocery store (tapping on it and all that), but these are a small variety, and I don't know how to tell ripeness on the vine. Suggestions? Thanks!

    What car would you buy if u would have $30.000?

    Nissan 350Z. Very nice car, and fast. Good reviews too. You should be able to get a VERY nice used one for that price.

    How do I find the right size of saddle for my road bike?

    Alright- so I've got myself an amazing old road bike that I've hardly stepped off since I handed over the cash at the garage sale. The guy had on it a brand new, giant cushy gel seat from Wally World that I might get beat up for if I try to call myself a "cyclist." So I'm watching ebay and all...
