:) Just realized something useful about all the junk pc systems I have been getting recently. Almost all manufacturers put the Windows key on the PC tower. So I now have about 10 spare legit Windows XP licenses :).

That's awesome... I'd like to find Win95/98 licenses to install VM's on my Win8 PC. Hoping there's still a few yard sales left this season.

Speaking of crushes, I can't stop watching Taylor Swift videos.

That's a decent vid but I've had "22" on a loop for some time now.

Dat part at the end where she's wearing a kitty ears headband.............

Jinx's new resume looks awesome because of Luke working his magic. (Thanks a million for that, your input is greatly appreciated!)

I'm still worried about when I went to the E.R. about billing, but they haven't called me back yet.

You guys are more than welcome.

Suggestion: God forbid something like this happens again, but an Urgent Care facility usually costs much, much less than visiting the ER.

Hope you get everything squared away, and soon.


Smile: The piano sounds excellent. I must have played for six hours last night. I also taught my wife for an hour or so, and she's a bit rusty...even on the kids books. And oh boy, teachers must be the most difficult people to teach.

Smile: Going to make a pineapple and roasted duck curry tonight. I'm going to save most of the roasted duck, as it is a delicacy itself, but I'm looking forward to having duck meat/fat in a curry.

Frown: I need a haircut.

Yes.
Even no crushes on Ricci or Portman?

I find myself more attracted to Swift's business acumen than her beauty. What she has achieved and how she achieved it is amazing. She also doesn't play ball, which gives me a business boner.

Re: Ebay Rep..

Post by mjmjr25 »

The only way to accidentally buy something is to sign in to 1-click bidding, which unless you are knowingly sniping something, you should never do. All other bids go through 2-step process to confirm a bid - hit the "wrong button" once, maybe. Twice...not so much.

Also, most sellers will allow you to cancel a transaction if an error was legitimately made. Also, ebay allows you to cancel a bid if it was an error.

After all of that, you have I believe at least 5, maybe it's 7 days to work out the error with the seller before ebay will review a non-payment case.

You aren't giving the whole story. More of the woe is me nothing's my fault mentality...

Aubrey Plaza looks like a gopher to me.

Kathy Griffin > Aubrey Plaza
