Riptides

Oh yeah forgot about those with their fragile thin glassine coatings that break if you sneeze.

Gas prices ARE falling... Like when I drink too much and fall UP the stairs.

I don't know of a single laptop that uses actual glass, they're all plastics, so anything abrasive or caustic will ruin the screen, especially with matte anti glare screens that are "soft" surfaced. Even too much of an ammonia or alcohol based cleaner may render a shiny or cloudy area if you're too aggressive. I would use a normal cleaner sparingly and take my time gently going over the area. It WILL come off eventually.

Thread is useless without pics!!!

Heat pumps come with an emergency heating function for the dead cold of winter, this is nothing more than an old fashioned element and your house electrical service needs to be able to handle this, if you're not on a 200Amp service, then it will have to be upgraded. I've seen the debates of Gas vs. Electric, and while 400 degrees is the same temperature across both methods, gas heating actually FEELS warmer because it releases moisture with the burning of the gas, electric is a much dryer heat, but.. Electric heating is more efficient than gas, not by much though.

As long as he's not surviving atomic explosions by hiding in a refrigerator.

Oh Laurie you're so Baaaaaaa-d.

Hope you've been going to http://www.navyformoms.com/forum to get some support, there's tons of good info on there about what to expect when your child enters the training facility and how much contact you may or may not have with them.

Been in there at 3am with a few Mercedes, Benz's, and a Ferrari parked in the back. Walk in and there's a table full of suits in that back dining section. Straight up looks like something from a gangster movie. ETA: Pasta Bella, same owners.

With enough alcohol I'd love anybody.. or anything

So are folks talking about the OLD owners/place or NEW one when they denigrate it? Just curious. I was in there last week and EVERYONE was giving the owners and staff praise and telling them they'd be back without the owners solicitation to such. The food was on par with a buffet place, not the best but damn sure not anywhere near what the old place used to be. Oh and the carpets looked like they had been cleaned finally since the building opened up 15 years ago.

Thanks for the perspective, now I don't feel bad about my bill at all. Ouchies tho.

I've lost mah balls, think I dun did sweated them off.

What's long.. brown.. and all sticky... a stick.

Any buffet I know of now charge by the pound, extra, along with the buffet for crab legs. Kroger on Macland and Lost Mtn had snow crab clusters almost half price Wednesday, this was deli wrapped and not pre-packaged. All I know is the price of seafood, especially crab, has gone up in the past few years. Good luck in your quest for crab.

I've got a scunch over 104 here in the shade right below Dallas. Right now.

What!!? I can't hear you over the 5 window units, 10 box fans, margarita mixer, and swimming pool chiller I'm running....

Are you sure the dentist didn't mean for you to the take the Valium the night before? And all 4 of mine removed in one go via an oral surgeon, was put under for the operation.

Well this is the only one I could find that didn't have his crotch wiggling. ETA: Okay here's one without sucking gut, and ladies, I do believe he's a christian.

I guess you don't mean this type of suit then?

About 10 million retirees in Tucson would attest to the benefits of a dry climate. Made up number, but cotton tops outnumbered 20 somethings in that college town.

I spent a summer living in Tucson Arizona.. I'm sorry but give me Georgia, because afternoon temps hitting 112.. I don't care who you are and how you gauge the heat, the entire place was dead between 11am and 3pm. Air conditioners WILL NOT WORK in that heat, they'll try and die, which is why most homes have swamp coolers out there, to add humidity and a reasonable amount of coolness into your home/business.

The cost of the show in and of itself can run anywhere starting at $30,000 and upwards to .. well skies the limit, to use a pun. Not to mention associated park/presentation costs and cleanup, needing to have firemen and rescue on standby, and also a committed police presence..

Whats your favorite position? Mine would be short stop.

I heard there's a run on pallets of water and sunscreen!!! Everyone better hurry or all you'll find is out of date water and stampeded Banana Boat!
