27298. robertjayb - 5/14/2013 1:48:44 PM Sounds like a job for Alistair. 27299. wabbit - 5/14/2013 3:16:26 PM T'ful, I am so sorry to hear about Casimir. Knowing that you've done the right thing doesn't make it any easier.
Rick Steves has some advice about cell phones in Europe. Enjoy your trip! 27300. thoughtful - 5/15/2013 12:30:29 AM Thanks, wabbit...
That article was very helpful!
I'll have to check on the ipad or whether I want to get an iphone instead of my blackberry. I would love to have connectivity so I can use google translate...it's a fabulous thing, esp if we are traveling to 5 different countries...Germany Austria, Czech, Slovakia and Hungary.... 27301. judithathome - 5/15/2013 4:22:43 AM Gads, that trip sounds like a dream vacation! Bon Voyage! 27302. iiibbb - 5/15/2013 7:02:02 PM A friend of mine has a startup.... it is a neat idea.... too bad I don't drink coffee. 27303. judithathome - 5/15/2013 8:44:31 PM Neat idea...however, I'm not too sure about the cozies...too much staining from drips. I really don't see the point of having them. Most people who use a French Press drink the coffee before it has a chance to cool.
But good luck to your friend! French Press coffee is the BEST! 27304. iiibbb - 5/16/2013 4:32:00 PM I think the wool is for branding purposes and to make it match the cups... plus it will make the glass not so hot to handle. 27305. judithathome - 5/18/2013 8:45:54 PM Arky, hold on to your hat...I like a rap song! I'm sure it doesn't past muster with you but I find it intriguing..."No Church In The Wild" by Kanye with Frank Ocean and Jay-Z.
It's probably considered "rap lite" but I like it! 27306. arkymalarky - 5/19/2013 2:57:13 AM Haha! Im no connoisseur, but They're very legit and very good and Ocean just came out not long ago. I haven't heard it. 27307. judithathome - 5/19/2013 4:29:48 PM The only reason I heard it was because I'd taped the movie "Safe House" and it ran as the ending credits rolled. I put closed captioning on and understood the lyric.
HOWEVER....last night Kanye was on Saturday Night Live and his 2 sets sucked. So I guess I'm just a fan of one of his songs. And one in which other people participate! 27308. arkymalarky - 5/19/2013 4:39:03 PM I rarely like performances on Saturday Night Live.there's stuff by him you would like, but he's a talented jerk. 27309. arkymalarky - 5/19/2013 4:40:34 PM one thing that irritates me about snl is they never have the voice adjustments and the sound mix right on the live performances 27310. arkymalarky - 5/20/2013 11:34:26 PM y'all hang onto your hats and be safe Judith!$ 27311. judithathome - 5/21/2013 4:11:44 AM We're hearing rumblings but so far, an actual tornado has missed us tonight.
Did y'all get anything? 27312. arkymalarky - 5/21/2013 6:02:32 PM we didn't last night, but we seem to be now 27313. judithathome - 5/21/2013 10:07:07 PM If that's the afternoon storm we experienced, it's all sound, no fury. 27314. arkymalarky - 5/21/2013 11:47:30 PM Now we're getting a second wave but temps are a lot cooler, so maybe we can just enjoy the thunder. 27315. Ms. No - 5/24/2013 5:02:55 AM Sitting on the couch reading a book and the building starts to sway. Earthquake? In Sacramento???
Sure'nough. Epicenter was actually in Susanville which is more than an hour away, but it was a 5.9.
I had to go over and ask my neighbors if they felt it too. They were arguing because one of them felt it and the other hadn't noticed --- she was walking up the stairs and into the foyer so she wasn't still enough to feel it when it happened.
Wild. I hadn't felt an earthquake since leaving L.A. 27316. robertjayb - 5/29/2013 4:22:57 PM A friend often said we were from the get drunk, go naked, and drive fast generation. Greatly exaggerated, I thought.
If there is a contest, this couple wins:
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — A New Mexico man faces multiple charges after police say he was having sex with a woman while driving drunk and crashed, ejecting the woman from the vehicle.
The Albuquerque Journal reports (http://bit.ly/111Kb8Y) 25-year-old Luis Briones was found with one shoe on and his shorts on inside-out Monday night after he wrecked his Ford Explorer in Albuquerque.
Police say Briones' female passenger was found naked outside the SUV after being ejected. She had deep cuts to her face and head.
Authorities allege Briones tried to drive away after the crash and leave his passenger behind, but a witness grabbed his keys from the ignition. He also allegedly tried to hide from responding officers behind a cactus.
Briones is charged with aggravated DWI, reckless driving and evading police.
