    Do you use case or cover for your cellphone?

    Yes, it's an HTC Touch Pro and I use the soft sided case that came with the phone. :) Can't wait till contract is up and I can grab an Evo.

    Blockbuster - Game rentals by mail!

    This potentially explains why their site was down earlier today. Seems to be back now. :D

    Hit by a bat at a baseball game, does he have a case?

    Really surprised this guy would even be able to sue. He's waited 3 years. Isn't there a statute of limitations ?

    Parents who make a big deal about which public school their kids are going to!!!!

    Haven't read the entire thread, but I'm figuring this comment could potentially score you much hate. :P I'm inclined to agree with you, if the parents live in areas with inadequate public schools. I attended Catholic school and even though I'm not a practicing Catholic as an adult, I feel...

    Do you think Apple is a fad or theyre products are here to stay?

    Nice.... can't even give a single supporting reason backing your opinion that my comment was "stupid"? Fail. :P

    Beverly Massachusetts

    I think September is considered off season time IIRC. If you have time to spend a couple of days on the cape, that is where I'd go. Nantucket / Cape Cod Newport RI I've only lived here five years, so I'm sure people who are more familiar with New England will probably chime in. :)

    Honeycrisps

    Not sure I've ever even had a honeycrisp. I usually go for gala or fuji. Hmmm, now I want to try one! :P

    Do you think Apple is a fad or theyre products are here to stay?

    There will always be plenty of people who blindly follow trends. The current trend is if you care about what other people think more than having "the best" technology - you will buy an iphone, irregardless of the fact that the current model has issues and has already been proven inferior to...

    Buying a car - bad idea?

    That's what I was wondering .... No offense meant OP - but for the price range of those vehicles, you should take a look at Mazda 6. :) WAY more fun, better looking and more features for the $$. I've owned a Camry and tried an Altima. Blech! Zoom zoom, baby! ;) (plus 0&#37; financing...

    found a kitty, need help

    Very kind offer. If only more people felt as you do. So many cat haters in the world, it's nice to see the opposite.

    How many here are getting hit with this heatwave?

    Meh, it's hot near Boston. Poor schlubs who have lived here their whole lives are suffering, particularly those not smart enough to have any means of cooling their houses :D I'm good. I don't mind the heat. ;)

    Tasty Low-Calorie Ice Cream Sammy's (on the cheap) You will need: 1 Box Chocolate Graham Crackers (can use regular grahams or cinnamon if you prefer) 1 tub of Cool Whip When you get the CW home from the store, it should be still somewhat frozen but soft enough to spoon out. Take 1 sheet of...

    Five Guys?

    I second the "small order of fries" suggestion. Five guys > in-n-out On a side note --- In-n-out is total garbage. How three separate locations of that chain could give me food poisoning (in 3 different parts of the state of CA) is beyond me. SO glad that crap hasn't expanded across the...

    Is there a movie you watch periodically?

    Watership Down (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watership_Down) 1x / year for the past ~30 years - I was 5 years old the year it was released.

    is it legal to ask for ID when using a CC?

    Interesting discussion. I use to put "please see id" or leave my cards blank. I thought I was protecting myself by doing so....

    It's the "Post something odd about yourself people wouldn't normally know" thread.

    LOL. Not everyone who loves Auburn, hates Alabama. I went to Auburn because Alabama didn't offer Industrial Design OR Architecture. Alabama is extremely weak in design related fields. Auburn is the "in state" choice regarding those types of careers. In my house I have about two dozen...

    What works better for you guys when driving?

    I really don't think there's much truth to this statement if you're referring to newer cars in the US. Out of everyone I know that has a 3 year old or newer vehicle, none of them have a digital gauge for speed or distance. I think that was more of a fad / short lived addition at best. It's...

    Am I a bad son-in-law?

    I think you're well within your right to say what does and does not go on in your house. It is YOUR house, after all. If the drunk "father in law" can't respect the rules of your house when he visits then he should keep his a$$ at home.

    Apple is now bigger than Microsoft

    IMO, one possible reason could be because they were hoping to entice all the designers and 3d modeling professionals who use Autodesk products into buying their cute little hyped up Mac's instead. Autodesk products are not available for Mac. I don't think that worked out too well for Mac on...

    It's the "Post something odd about yourself people wouldn't normally know" thread.

    Unlike the vast majority of people in Alabama, I am an Auburn U. alumni. Therefore I have more than earned the right to spout out my enthusiasm for Auburn. :D

    It's the "Post something odd about yourself people wouldn't normally know" thread.

    I'm originally from the same state that Phoenix79 and SunnyD are located in. :) War Damn Eagle! :) (that is of course, if Phoenix79 has their actual true location listed)

    For pet owners..how did you find your pet?

    Rescue. There are some states who still use the gas chamber as a means of putting animals down. Some rescues focus on states like North Carolina and the shelters there - working to get animals out of these inhumane and horrible conditions and into loving homes. This was what hubby and I did...

    I'm only 25 and gotten my third Jury summons wtf

    Your logic makes sense in theory, but in my experience that's just not true. I've lived in five different states in the last 10 years, and have always gotten a new DL along with registering to vote. Never once been summoned in any of those states, including my current one MA - where I have...

    I'm only 25 and gotten my third Jury summons wtf

    Never received a summons and I'm mid 30s. I have often wondered if it was perhaps due to my college education and/or the fact that my Father was murdered when I was 14, and that there's a fair bit of info floating around about it.

    Favorite breed of dog?

    Didn't know there was a anime about a great pyr. I'll have to rent that :) Wondered what that cute image was from. Another cartoon great pyr is Belle. Nikelodeon played the Belle and Sebastian cartoon series back in the 80s. Love Belle. <3
