I would ask "stoned or stuffed?", but in the context probably shouldn't.

Hope you had a good time, LC. The tension aboard Medusa as we await a report...


Thanks for the good wishes, all. Didn't know you cared :oops: .

Went OK, I think. My guess is we'll do it again.

Congrats LC! That's great. First dates are always super awkward.

Also, researchers discovered some new animal species. There's a pretty cool frog:

Frankly, at this stage, I'm just shooting for a connection. But I'm sure looking forward to the third date now!

Great story, GFCH (and Hi!). I dig that shit!

It wasn't too bad, as she is a captivating conversationalist and an insightful questioner; I was very disarmed by her interpersonal skills.

Does anyone know anything about Netbooks?

Jake got me one for my birthday and it works for the most part, but their are a few glitches,to save boring everyone with the details, please PM me.

I've tried Emailing support but they have been pretty useless up to now.

Thanks.

First official day of summer tomorrow and it's going to be 98 degrees with a heat index of 105 here in Florida! :oops: :oops: :shock: 95 today so it's a bit cooler! Don't think the Pogues would have been up for those kind of temps! Good job they came in March when it was nice and cool. :mrgreen:

Got stung on the neck by a bee yesterday too. Long time since I've been stung, must have been about 7 the last time. It wasn't as painful as I remember but unpleasant nonetheless.

Sure, get a portable. They cost around $150 or less. It's worth making sure it plays all regions.

It has to be said that the speakers in these portable DVD players are rarely very good - laptop quality at best - so I always use headphones, but I'm sure good speakers can be had separately.

Ah, I see. Well, in that case, someone else may be better qualified to offer advice! :wink:
