  1. Inspired by this story: ...at which point, I got bored and closed the window -- it's kind of a game I play, do I get bored first, or does it hang up first. It was close at the "kill" comment -- there was a long pause.
  2. Yay! Can I uninstall everything?
  3. Change the voltage. It'll make it easier to resell. Then buy a BHSE anyway (use credit, stimulate the economy).
  4. A reference to Pulp Fiction (she is not being sarcastic): This is an actual letter from an Austin woman sent to American company Proctor and Gamble regarding their feminine products. She really gets rolling after the first paragraph. It's PC Magazine's 2007 editors' choice for best webmail-award-winning letter. EDIT: Apparently, it's real: link
  5. It's called "bloat", and Microsoft -- because they are the biggest company -- needs to be particularly sensitive to it, because the more code is there, the more there is to exploit, and IE8, in particular, is particularly prone to being exploited. Yes, that's right, even if you don't use it. PS I use linux. So don't yell at me for being a hypocrite, 'cuz I ain't.
  6. Bunch o' Telarc ('n'such) SACD's from Concorde Music Group.
  7. Sweet. Thanks, Jack.
  8. I'd rather not have it there if I'm not going to use it.
  9. That just looks so wrong. He looks like he has great big Wile E. Coyote slippers on.
  10. The Django SACD, for example, is showing as 18.98, I'm pretty sure it was 5.98 earlier. All the Jarvi and Hiromi SACD's are full price, too. Either they bit off more than they could chew, or it was a typo. Either way, they fixed it. No big, I'm kind of relieved, I shouldn't be buying anything right now, anyway. Don't know how others feel about it, though, but that's their problem. I'd be curious if any of you who ordered have the orders canceled.
  11. Fuck. None of the titles that I can remember are still on sale. Was going to fill out my Paavo Jarvi collection, but none of the SACDs are to be sale priced, that I can find. Don't remember any of the jazz titles. Typo/data entry error? Some of the CD's didn't appear to be on sale, while the SACD's were -- that's the only thing upon which I base this.
  12. You might not be able to remove it if you do that.
  13. Of the ones I have on that list (a not insignificant fraction -- I believe I have all the Hiromi, and most of the Paavo Jarvi, as well as some others), those are GREAT FRIGGIN' PRICES.
  14. Those are nasty awesome.
  15. My cat says, "nice scratching post, I approve!"
  16. I'm a big fan of VPI, I say: dew et.
  17. Salmon Paisley from Pilin (I call it Paisley, but it's really basil and green beans.)
  18. Picsplzokthnxbye
  19. Moar Genesis -- bonus tracks that came with the 3rd/earliest box set. I love Talk Talk. But their best compilation is Introducing -- it's absolutely brilliant, because just by judiciously choosing tracks and paying special attention to sequencing, they make it sound like one band, despite them having two distinct eras (Party's Over/It's My Life/Colour of Spring/early and Spirit of Eden/Laughing Stock/late). Check it out if you can.
  20. Doh!
  21. Neither, it was Nong Shim (I looked it up) : Nong Shim Shin Noodle Ramyun, Gourmet Spicy Picante, 4.2-Ounce Packages (Pack of 20): Amazon.com: Grocery
  22. How the fuck do they know? A couple months ago, I got the Ramen that was on Gold Box (spicy something). Today, I have Prilosec on my personal choices ("Peter's Quick Picks"). I don't think I bought anything else that's edible from Amazon.
  23. (I was asking for verification, thanks for reading my intentions.) Done.
  24. I'd return it. My tea filters are seamless. Well, except at the seams. It's not like they're spheres.
