I really do like mine, but its so limited app wise its sad. For surfing and watching TV though. Top notch. Well, not typing, boy do I hate typing on that thing.

Two questions: Which game ended first?
If it was the Sox, do you think the Yankmees purposely blew their seven run lead to screw them over? I would doubt it, but how awesome would that be? They don't match up well with Tampa though, so I just don't see it.

Sox finished first, but by only 3 Minutes...as Longoria was stepping out of the on deck circle. No,the Yankees could've used Rivera to close...but they had already used 12 pitchers, all the starters were out, and it tied at that point. Red Sux deterioration was an epic fail. 20 loss September! I'm happy for now.

Is it wifi only? 3g?

Sushi is one of those things I'd like to experience more, but my wife won't touch it and doesn't even like me eating it, so I almost never eat it. If I'm ever in your neck of the woods that'll be priority two. One of course is drinking.

Wifi only.

The saga continues,

So the charges were reversed on my account so now I am at even.

I went to purchase the same computer again and now the coupon code does not work. This warranted another call to the dell outlet sales line which apparently is also in Bangladesh where I was told that the only way I was going to get the same deal was to purchase another refurb. PC at full price and and once the funds have cleared the bank then call in for a refund that they have noted on my account for $160. I asked for a single use 20% off code and I was told they couldn't do that.

This seems ridiculous and somewhat sketchy.

I'd just wait on a woot HP refurb. They're just as good as what you spec'd out usually.

Does anyone have any of the mini woot monkey key chains I may purchase? I will pay for the monkey(s) and postage.

thanks!

If you can't get one easier/closer, I have one that is unused.

I have at least a half dozen that were leftovers from our buddy WD sending them for a tasting. So you can have one, or two, or even three if you want.

mmm, yes please

Have any of you ever tasted at the Turley tasting room? Do they only allow X bottles to be purchased of the wines? Or rather, do they allocate at the tasting room like they do for their mailing list?

You should have asked before I left! But at least HaK has them. Maybe cheron can get them to bahwm or d-dog?

Whenever I've been there, I don't remember any limits.

I'll take whatever you are willing to part with.

I use mine for my motorcycle keys. This weekend, got together with a few Motor Maids from AZ and Vegas. They went wild over the key-chain, and I said I'd work on getting a few.

We had so much fun! 4 ladies rode out from AZ to join 3 of us ladies here in Vegas for the weekend. Friday night pizza party, Saturday early breakfast and ride through Red Rock, a mini-facial, a BBQ (lots of great homemade food), and then Sunday an early breakfast and ride through Laughlin, Oatman, Kingman then home, with a stop at yummy Mr. D's on Route 66 for root beer floats and malts!

We're having a year-end get-together in November, and we're going to do something fun with the regular sized monkeys, but I'd love to have 6 key-chains to share.

These ladies are such an inspiration - I have the baby bike at a 750 - they all ride bikes from a 1000cc to an 1800cc.

Please pm me payment info. Thankx!*

Isn't it beautiful out? Hope you're enjoying it!

Thanks mang. We're also hitting Tablas Creek (upon your recommendation from forever ago), Victor Hugo, Tobin James, and Pear Valley. Little first-anniversary-wine-tasting-vacation-to-get-away-from-dogs-and-relax trip.

Now the question is: what must I buy from Turley and TC?

Also, where to eat dinner? We've always been there for winer events so food has always been taken care of.

Attn: sparky

Looks like we are visitng Pahrump Valley Winery on Sunday afternoon, then dinner at Nittaya's (by my home) for Thai Tapas. We'd love to have you join us for dinner. Reservations are a must; do you have a window of time you'd be available for dinner Sunday?

Congrats on your First Anniversary! Have loads of fun! I can't believe you've been married for a year already! What's the date?

There's one over at moofi at the moment. Lower specs, but for the price it could be worth it to upgrade the power supply and pop in a nice video card.

October 23rd. Along with our 1990 Dom P, we're opening the 2005 Ty Caton Field Blend you and your husband were so generous in sending us (which we, of course, immensely appreciated).

It was our pleasure. BTW, by coincidence, we just popped a bottle of the '05 TC FB tonight with a spinach and 3 cheese ravioli with pesto. Still drinking great.
You won't be disappointed.

Awwww, so sweet that you are planning on opening our bottle on your First Anniversary! :tongue; As ddeuddeg said, the TC FB was really yummy. Enjoy! And may you have may more happy anniversaries!

I agree with bowtie. Buy wine.


Taste as much as you can, and buy what you like.

Edit: Some nice places off the plaza. Or you could drive a bit to Creston. There's a great steak place there.

Right now, definitely anytime after 5, but depending on sessions, maybe 3pm.

Grr...I have I don't know how many bottles coming in the next couple of weeks.... My wine fridge is almost full and then I read this post that makes me think I want to buy more?!! I don't think I can convince my hubby to purchase another wine fridge!!!!

If you like Riesling, you should not miss this one. Just get one. You won't need a fridge because it'll be gone in a week. It's damn tasty.

Not that I should talk. I have a half case of Humbug I just unearthed. And somewhere in my basement is a whole case of Toothy. I've never even had one.
