Honestly, I'm not sure, but I haven't seen B-Ups on the pda list in a while.

The quasi-public USPS has a public monopoly on first-class mail :rolleyes:

A real job that you want is important long-term - a job that sustains your other activities / goals is fine in the intermediate term.

My 5 letter car has been telling me it *needs* an oil change after 3500 miles. I just give it the ol' :rolleyes: and tell it to wait a few thousand more.

The NJ Nets had 1,016 fans in attendance tonight. Even without the weather, I would have trouble attending a Nets home game.

Just simplicity, that is really it, extremely simple for a few months. :D

no runs to the store, no wondering what is for lunch or dinner, all set, rice and beans :)

May I suggest yellow rice, black beans, and salsa with a generous supply of tortilla chips? I've lived on this concoction for days at a time. :)

My sub-$27 Knights Inn is much nicer than expected. 2005 franchisee of the year, large rooms, microwave, mini-fridge, WiFi, a quiet heating system ...

@:-) That's just what I was thinking!
