I laugh at the earthquake amateurs. :D

Seriously, I'm glad there was no serious carnage. A 5.0 can do a fair amount of damage.

Our building shakes every time a large truck drives by, I could call you everyday.:D

I live less than a mile from a quarry but the Indiana earthquake a few years ago was profoundly different.

Given the paucity of good rental car promotions, I'm renting from Enterprise and getting 400 AGR points.

My Hyatt stays from the weekend posted. I had the HP stay from Friday changed to miles. Already through 4 of 5 needed to max out the AA miles.

The second stay in PSP is staying at points. 2,500 bonus points with rate + G3 + 1W + stay points/bonus = approx 6,200 Gold Passport points.

I'm too lazy when it comes to managing a music collection. :rolleyes: 20 years ago I tried making cassette mix tapes from my CDs, but that never happened really. In vehicles I just keep changing the station if I get tired of something, and with my laptop I stream music.

That could be scary! :eek:

My stay on Friday night is going to Amtrak - give up 338 Hyatt points ($52 room rate) to get 700 AGR points when counting the current multi-partner Amtrak promotion.

My second car a Fiat 850 Spyder didn't have a functional radio so I opted to invest in 8-tracks:(. As you can see by the size of this car not much room to carry tunes!

That's when you made sure you have some great 8-tracks.*+

* My first was Billy Joel's Glass Houses.
+ Don't leave the 8-tracks out in the sun.

I agree on managing music library. I use my cell phone, Pandora radio and the aux. cable plug for alternate music options. I also have a portable XM that plugs in as well.

I aways hated when songs were cut for a track change.

Took about 2 minutes on the website, then I needed to wait for about 30 minutes to get service active.

Eager for action and hot for the game
The comming attraction, the drop of a name
They knew all the right people; They took all the right pills
They threw outrageous parties; They paid heavenly bills
CLICK
There were lines on the mirror, lines on her face
She pretended not to notice she was caught up in the race
Out every evenin' until it was light
He was too tired to make it; she was too tired to fight about it.
