  1. First time seeing the carebear and unicorn level in Diablo 3. Fun.. twitpic.com/9papg5
  2. @Gillis57 That is correct. When I give time lines I try to keep that in mind.
  3. @eareeve That means all polled two-year-olds agree, which makes it a statistical fact! You win the youth vote!
  4. @Valette Anytime ours rings it is a telemarketer, pollster, emergency, or over-persistent relative.
  5. @jerisisco Yeah, someone will call my home number if things go really wrong so I can normally set my phone to stun from 12-6AM.
  6. @Valette Waffles!
  7. @lbrumbaugh I thought about a rule like that but sometimes emails come in from new folks back east. Need to play with the settings.
  8. Perhaps I need to setup an email rule sending all email arriving 1-5AM directly to trash... Too bad there is the 1 in 100.
  9. @mariancall Almost no? What is the rare exception? Dot com innovator searching for funding on the side?
  10. Huh, just found that the Deal of the Day has a maximum purchase quantity. Had never seen that before.
  11. Polarizers are great for cutting Tue glare out of swimming pools, I need to try them while doing high speed photography.
  12. Being a supportive husband should not include getting out of bed pre-7AM on Sunday. #gnt
  13. Rock of Ages was a lot of fun. Makes me think of all the 80s music hiding in my itunes library. twitpic.com/9mogx5
  14. @nitwhit13 I love Mint. Abandoned Quicken and Money once they had full support for AKUSA.
  15. Tanya walked in and said "It smells like pot in here!' Only then did I realize that my beer, Anchorage Brewing White IPA, smells like pot.
  16. @aroberts72 Without opposable thumbs he needs to watch it, otherwise he could end up killing us, then starving to death. #killercorgi
  17. @Anniepants Couple weeks. We watched another episode last night so we're only one episode behind right now.
  18. @aroberts72 Your dog is a master at always being under-foot. He is a trip ninja.
  19. @deepfreeze1 You and the skittles folks need to get together for some hallucinations.
