I'm not going to the right massage places. I wanna get contorted...and just as I say that, I move my neck and I get cracks from two vertebra instead of just one.

I like it when the masseuses get up on the table and contort your body into ridiculous positions. Painful, but therapeutic.

I saw that once on Anthony Boudines (sp?) show. He said it was toruture and would say anything such as "Rachale Ray is a great chef"

Sounds like us. We've got about a dozen things listed on eBay right now, with a few more I need to get up tomorrow.

Today I made a trip to the post office to ship out a couple of DVDs we either have multiple copies of, or will never watch again, a surplus WiFi router, and one of several retired cell phones we have.

hopefully we are not selling the same stuff :D

We haven't upgraded either. Still don't have an HDTV in the house, although I'm wanting one. But it will probably be another year before we get one. Often the discussion of that purchase comes down to HDTV, or we could go someplace. Travel always wins in our household.

Sorry, thought you were avoiding OZ in May, June, July. The bubbles went to my head :rolleyes:

Anyone have any friends that collect restaurant menus? I've got a few doozies that I came across, and one of them was limited to just 20 copies, and I'm willing to bet that the copy I have is the only one that escaped :rolleyes: when the restaurant was closed.

You're doing better than I would have thought, but I don't think I'll be awake for your thrilling victory.

If you go to the Gold Coast you will see even more Budgie Smudgers
as their beach season is longer

Me too. Unfortunately we can't get reservations to stay at the North Rim Lodge on the dates we want. I have a backup reservation outside the park and am checking several times a day now hoping someone will cancel and we can get a room in the park on the dates we need.

That's the way I did it. Cabins opened up about 3 weeks before our date and they were all gone within the day. Original plans were to stay in Kanab, but that turned out to be a rather far commute so I'm glad we were able to stay at the rim.

I got my TV by trading two extra (from the radio station, 2 of 3 friends flaked out) Petty tickets for $100 in Best Buy gift cards. I went into the store and said "I want the biggest TV I can get for $100, and that includes tax". My DVD player was a gift from Citibank. Let's say that corner of the living room is often ignored.

Sure - I do. 5'5" with pale, translucent skin looks hot in a speedo.

Maybe not.

My British ex-girlfriend's male friends took liberties with speedos while on holiday - unacceptable. Men's fashion 101 is not a required course at Cambridge.

I've given up flying - Amtrak here I come. Oh, but I will do Southwest if I have to fly.
