    Do You Talk To Yourself?

    Holy Cow! You guys are kidding right? I can understand blurring out a word or two or perhaps rehearsing a speech out loud but you guys don't really have a conversation with yourself do you? :D "hello" "hi" "want to watch a movie tonight?" "sure" "want to cuddle tonight" "sure" :D...

    Question about IP address and tracking

    Matt, I know the ad you're talking about. It's very annoying. My problem is not that. So can they and can't they track the person who could possibly be hoping with people's IP address for whatever reason? Since the message comes and go with sometime over a month without a message that some...

    Question about IP address and tracking

    OK, our company assign each one of us an IP address. One day while being on the web, I got a message saying that some other computer is using the same IP address. Checking whether that's possible, I went to the computer next to me and enter its IP address as mine and it's fine so I know it's...

    Wow! Thanks for all the replies, and I thought this was just going to be a business trip ;). If I really need Canadian money off hand, I guess I'll get some at the airport. Thanks again.

    Brotherhood of the Wolf: Audio Options?

    Has anyone heard the English Dubbed? How is it? I know I know, you guys going to say what the heck do I want to do that for. I've seen it in French twice in the theater already. This movie contains heavy dialogue and I think I spent most of my time reading rather than watching, so I would like...

    Wheel Alignment and other car service complaints?

    So a wheel alignment cost $140 and suppose to keep my $40/tire from wearing down? I've always been skeptical of this service since I rotate my tires.

    Who knows about outdoor train set?

    I'm planning on having an outdoor train set but don't know much about it at this point . Does anyone have good and bad experiences or hits and misses that they like to share? I have set aside my side yard for it. It's 8ft by up to 70ft. Because I haven't look too much into it yet, I don't know...

    Weekly Roundup 8/13

    Patrick, you're right, Circuit City does offer the "rain check" at the sale price. I did it one time but then I thought: Hey, they lured me there twice - once when they were out of the stock item and another when I go pick it up. 2nd time and yesterday, I didn't do it. I'll bet after...

    Weekly Roundup 8/13

    Thanks again David Does anyone of you think it's possible that stores purposely run out of a particular movie during the first sale week? Case in point: Clockstoppers. I went to Circuit City yesterday and they ran out! On a second day? It just happen that they're selling it 16.99 and...

    *** Official 'Fellowship of the Ring' DVD member review & discussion thread

    I can tell you that those who have seen it told me that part of the movie just went over their head. I know about the fear of fire but it was never explained in the movie. For me, the explanations here aren't good enough. Afterall, the Witchking himself was there. How can he be a force to...

    *** Official 'Fellowship of the Ring' DVD member review & discussion thread

    Having seen the movie 15 times now, one thing still bothers me concerning the movie: Aragorn ability to drive away 5 nazgul at Amon Sul (weather top). Knowing what these guys are capable of in the past and in the future (I've read all the books), it seems too much. Afterall they are running...

    *** Official 'Fellowship of the Ring' DVD member review & discussion thread

    There's several scenes in the extended footage that would make the movie better: 1. The gift giving. 2. Elrond telling Aragorn that he should only go with Frodo as far as necessary. I know it's not the exact word. When my family members saw the movie, they thought it was weird that...

    Lawn Care Advice (merged thread)

    OK, I realize that California isn't the best place to have a very green Lawn. I've been to other states and the grass are beautiful. I live in Vallejo, about 25 mi north of Berkeley CA where the weather isn't too hot and the winter isn't all that cold. The weather is pretty much very dry and...

    Telemarketers leaving messages?? WTF?!

    Is it illegal for me to answer TM and sent an annoying pitching sound or blow their ear drums with a speaker? I'm joking and being serious at the same time because 95% of my calls are TM. I come home everyday with 5 messages on my answering machine and there are no messages simply because it...

    dealing with car salesmen

    Peter, don't be insulted. Let's face it, you hold a position that many who have to face you don't like, much like a lawyer. Your job is to milk as much money as you can out of your customers right? If your answer is no, then you shouldn't be in the field. If your answer is yes, you're doing...

    dealing with car salesmen

    I bought my Honda Accord from a one price Honda dealer. It's a fix price, no negotiation and I thought the price was pretty good. I like those and it was a pleasant experience except for them trying to push warrenties on us, but that's to be expected. Anyway, wasn't there a site called...
