I tried searching for a translate button. I guess you have to be registered.

After mate & eh, I am lost.

Paging Jerloma?

FIFY

That hurts.

Calling Bensell, calling Bensell.

AB, can you help here?

The first I bought were I believe part of a BMG 12 CDs for $36 (a cent plus $35.99 in fees that's still a really good deal I did that through Columbia House three or four times during my college years. I heard constant warnings on what a scam it was, but if you kept up with it and bought smart to f...

Offer, accceptance. time, consideration.

Yep. Keep the money. Cash the check, and if they have stopped payment, small claims.

My first. Probably my favorite Beatles album.

My first concert was in the spring of 1970. Ray Charles, at Millett Hall, at Miami. I felt like the center of an Oreo.

At that time, bison were so plentiful that trains would stop, and people would just shoot them and leave them there.

Scottie could be (very) hard to get along with, but he has/had brought some very good things to this site. I enjoyed some of his posts. Getting a muscle on, on the internet, is something I would not miss, at all. Sometimes I know what I want to express, but words get in the way. I try to think befor...

Yep. I could not say it better.

Courtesy goes a long way. Golden Rule......

I have been a member of some form of the Swamp for over seven years.

The enjoyment factor has steadily decreased.

The last 3 months have been a bitch. Did I miss anything major?

I have my sights set on 12 Sam Adams. What to drink, what to drink? Questions like this are delicate, delicate.

peace-n-out

Hey HDO, or others... So I was subcontracted on a project that the contractor ended up getting sacked on, thus I ended up not getting paid for 50% of my fees, even though I had completed the work. Can I claim this as a loss, and how? Currently I just have it as negative income, is this legit? Edit:...

Thanks for everything, Scottie. After tax season, I'll have to get involved a little more.

What? R2D2 in between them?

Web brousing, for the most part.

She does some keying for me in the bookkeeping area, and that might be incorporated. I doubt it though, right now.

I change that to "I was"

I am thinking HP. I have had excellent luck with that brand.

My wife & I have an anniversary coming up soon. I am thinking about getting her a laptop. Inexpensive.

Any suggestions?

I used to have a VHS tape of sports highlights from back in the 80s. I think it was a free gift with a subscription or some other purchase, but I'm not certain. Way too cheesy to be an S.I. gift. It was hosted by an overtan guy who sat in a leather recliner (in a proto man cave, maybe?) He'd introd...

Just got in. And now, for something completely different.

Thanks Pope K.

Now, how does one get one of those fancy-schmancy pictures?

It would be really nice to go back. But I could live without that, as I would still have the memories.

But Jorts & cabbage soup, Pacer brawl in the stands, and Jerloma falling off the bridge would be nice to revisit.

A man walks out to the street and catches a taxi just going by. He gets into the taxi, and the cabbie says, "Perfect timing. You're just like Frank." Passenger: "Who?" Cabbie: "Frank Feldman... he's a guy who did everything right all the time. Like my coming along when you n...

Where in the hell are the scores?

Looks good to me. But, what do I know, besides numbers?
