There are advertisements in the subway for audible.com. One I saw this morning featured the Dragon Tattoo Girl book. So now all of the 25 to 40 year old white women are going to be listening to it on their ipods instead of reading the book? But how will I know to judge them?
that is another sucky tech b.s. – all this streaming nonsense. we pay for this high speed (verizon)yada yada and netflix pauses left and right especially in the evening.
Slopey – When I was doing research for t.v. reception I found out that you have to have a 2nd antenna for 13 – all the other broadcast channels are pretty much in the same area but 13 is almost 180 degrees different. You might try just swinging your current antenna to see if you really can’t get 13. I’ll try to find the exact position – I have it somewhere.
I stopped into B&N US cuz I was hoping they still had a signed copy of Paul Auster’s new novel, ‘Sunset Park’, he was just there last week.
One copy left. I always peel off the ‘autographed book’ sticker to make sure it comes off easily, then there’s the question of what to do with it. I used to just ball it up and drop it but lately I’ve been thinking more fun to put it on the cover of a book by a deceased author. So I’ve been attaching them to the Stieg Larssen books. Does that make me a sick man?
Thanks, denton. Would love to come by. Maybe after holidays as this is back burner til 1Q 2011. Our family/tv room is smallish and doubles as guest room, so mroe like 34-42″ on screen and not looking to go hi fi. Ch. 13 is spotty on streaming content.
I really freak when someone says ‘living on a fixed income’. Social Security has had a COLA since um, 1975?

Can anyone recommend a chemical that I can put in a Christmas Tree’s water that will kill it and make it shrivel up within a day or so?

You can’t have everything. Where would you put it?

Polemicist re-emerged in the WF thread. Haven’t seen him around for ages. And how about EnglishKills over there trying to pwn Mr. B?
