thatdarngirl #382 thatdarngirlOG 2002

I'm finally getting the sense of what college is supposed to be like--10 hours of home work on a Sunday.

superhero #381 superheroOG 2004

flippin strong stuff it is, like muddy water. Four bags of the regular stuff at least in the same glass. Sweet lookin package design tho. THere is an american company now imitating it. They sell them in the city somewheres.

englandkid #381.4 englandkidOG 2003

englandkid #380 englandkidOG 2003

grrr, i am having like the worst allergies, especially because ive never gotten them before. i keep coughing, and sneezing and now my eyes are watering. :( any suggestions?

englandkid #380.1 englandkidOG 2003

oh yeah, and my head hurts

thefunkyfresh #380.2 thefunkyfreshFounder

yeah dunk your head in battery acid then light yourself on firethenjumpoffofaveryhighbuildingkillingyourrselfffffffffff

englandkid #380.2.1 englandkidOG 2003

noted, thanks

thefunkyfresh #380.2.1.1 thefunkyfreshFounder

that's what i did

web-toedchloe #380.3 web-toedchloeOG 2001

Claritan/Sudafed. Did you recently switch to a new shampoo or laundry detergent? That might do be the problem.

englandkid #380.3.1 englandkidOG 2003

well yes and no, but i think the problem is the fact that ive been using a heater a lot more than i probably should and its making the air dry. do i need a prescription for claritan or sudafed?

web-toedchloe #380.3.1.1 web-toedchloeOG 2001

I think you need to ask the pharmacist for claritan or sudafed, but you don't need a prescription. Maybe a humidifier would help too. :)

englandkid englandkidOG 2003

yeah, i have one of those, im going to sit on the couch with my latest book and my humidifier and a cup of tea!

juicymango #380.4 juicymangoOG 2003

i'm havin real bad allergies this winter too, the hot dry air of the heater, dust, etc. i can't breathe!

I am trying Zicam (maybe Zycam..?) it's a homeopathic nasal spray it's supposed to relieve the .. inability to breathe... but it takes a week to really kick in so far i'm on day 2 and i still kinda can't breathe

but i'm willing to stick it out and give this a try, i like homeopathic things

web-toedchloe #380.4.1 web-toedchloeOG 2001

I tried that "synu-cleanse" stuff that is essentially a lamp-shaped object in which you mix a saline solution with warm water and then run it through one nostril and out the other. Maybe I was doing it wrong, but it didn't help me at all - in fact, I had that solution in my nose all night and couldn't get it out! I wonder if acupuncture would help...

C
#380.4.1.1 chuggieOG 2003

I worked with a Eastern European lady once who said that their home remedy was to put honey on a Qtip and put it in your nose. Its supposed to make your nose run like a faucet. I never had the guts....

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

ewww that sounds nasty. wont it get all sticky? sean told me about an irish rememdy thats something similar to that, but it involves whiskey. LOL

socalgal #380.4.2 socalgalOG 2003

those never worked for me. i jsut pop an allergy pill, like a claritin-D or allegra D and that takes all the sinus congestion away. *i hope you feel better chica!!

g.f.s.rocks #375.1 g.f.s.rocksOG 2001

WOW what an ancient phone....

fivezero #375.2 fivezeroOG 2003

why!?

malibu #375.2.1 malibuOG 2001

dude you're welcome to have it but i'm warning you it is sooo annoying. i'm constantly calling the wrong people or ereasing texts. the buttons are just too tiny.

fivezero #375.2.1.1 fivezeroOG 2003

nah, i just got the LG vx9900 enV

i love it so far. it's got everything i need.

superhero superheroOG 2004

i want that phone, yet i must keep my treo so i can continue to have Watchtower Library at a moment's notice - BAM - just like that - entire "Jehovah's Word is Alive" articles from Genesis to Isaiah

iwz #375.3 iwz

wait, you just bought the phone in the picture, or that is your old phone?

malibu #375.3.1 malibuOG 2001

i just bought the phone in the picture. its older but new to me and i like the style. all the upgrades my company wanted to give me were mad ghey. i've been using a zoolander style phone from mexico and i just cant take it anymore.

web-toedchloe #373 web-toedchloeOG 2001

I think this is a stupid question: When you transfer the title of a car, you only need to sign the back and have the new buyer sign it, right? You don't need to notarize it, do you? Transferring my car from my dad's name to mine and from NJ to PA has been a nightmare

coreyfeldman #373.1 coreyfeldmanOG 2003

Car titles are stupid, it took us a month and a lot of leg work just to get a title so we could junk a car.

web-toedchloe #373.1.1 web-toedchloeOG 2001

Well moving into a new state with a loan in my dad's name is horrible. They wanted me to pay sales tax on the loan (even though I already paid it on the car) totaling like $700. So it made more sense for me to just pay off the loan entirely and now I only have to pay sales tax on the sale price from my dad to me, which will be $1. It's just as complicated as paying taxes.

:( :(

The dead body of James Kim -- who left his wife and children in a snowbound car while he went for help -- has been found in the Oregon wilderness, law enforcement officials confirm.

www.cnn.com

fivezero #371.1 fivezeroOG 2003

oh mannn. i was sure they'd find him okay. that totally sucks.

iwz #371.1.1 iwz

i know, i feel so bad. he was a brave guy

theremin #370 thereminOG 2002

So I guess no ones done an eBay store before, ey? I have 200 items to list. While I know it's easy enough to figure out, I'm Not looking foward to it, 'cause initally it'll be sure to be dreadful. Nevermind the packing and shipping part.

theremin #370.1 thereminOG 2002

I'd rather to individual listings which I've done multiple times and do it via turbolister. But my cousin thinks we should use a store.

coreyfeldman #370.1.1 coreyfeldmanOG 2003

what are you selling, do I want to buy any of it?

theremin #370.1.1.1 thereminOG 2002

Not likely. But perhaps. Mostly female stuff. Makeup, perfume, skin care, etc. There's Aramis Life men's cologne and deordorant, but that's the only thing appealing. But, if you want any Estee Lauder, Clinique, DKNY, Tommy Hilfiger products for ladyfriend or wife, whatever applies, yeh, let me know. And, I'll tell you what specific items are available.

theremin thereminOG 2002

Oh sorry, I think there's a DKNY men's cologne, rather than a DKNY feminine perfume. I have to double check the storage box.

ilikebirds #369 ilikebirdsOG 2002

However internet access no go. Dns server unreachable? huh what.

theremin #369.1.1.2 thereminOG 2002

iwz iwz

"We", like, us, everybody. LIKE A PARTAY

coreyfeldman #368 coreyfeldmanOG 2003

Very well thank you. One sister came up to me later and said she especially liked the conclusion.

thatdarngirl #366 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Coolest character in the Bible--Jael.

coreyfeldman #366.1 coreyfeldmanOG 2003

I have a friend named Jael, she is cool too.

thatdarngirl #366.1.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Cool! I was thinking that I'd name my daughter (that I'm never going to have) Jael.

flomojopoanode #366.2 flomojopoanodeFounder

I like how you said "character" as if Jael was just a fairytale.

I point this out, because I said the same thing about King David the other day...

superhero #366.2.1 superheroOG 2004

dude, they could be called "characters", but they're not, you're right

i think we say this because we started reading about them in the bible stories book, so long ago.

are kings like Julius Caesar or Alexander the Great spoken of as "characters in history"?

web-toedchloe #366.2.1.1 web-toedchloeOG 2001

I was just talking about this the other day - I came into the truth when I was a little older, so I never read the bible story book. Now I think I should have, because the little kids in my hall know the stories like the back of their hands and I can't remember any of them. :(

superhero superheroOG 2004

i used to recite the "jonah" story word for word, to convince people i could read when i really couldn't.

web-toedchloe web-toedchloeOG 2001

My little brothers loved that one too. I remember them both saying "Go to the city of Ninevah!" all around the house, and I thought, Who was supposed to go to Ninevah? :P

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002

summer played this trick, but i think she used the story about dinah.

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

Have you read the book at all? It's awesome! I love the Wise King Solomon one with the two ladies and the baby. That was always my favorite.

tesoro tesoroOG 2001

yea, you should read it, even after all of the society's books i've read, whenever a certain "story" is being discussed at the meeting, the pictures i rememeber are from the bible story book.

web-toedchloe web-toedchloeOG 2001

I leaved through it when I read the stories to my brothers when they were little, but I've never read it all the way through. I'd feel silly - the writing is for little kids.

g.f.s.rocks g.f.s.rocksOG 2001

You may think the writing is for little kids, but it is still using the Bible as its reference and is a tool from Jehovah to help out the younger ones, so there is no difference between reading that book and an article in a Watchtower or Awake that is targeted toward the younger ones... Shouldn't we all be like babes when it comes to learning more about the truth?

web-toedchloe web-toedchloeOG 2001

Obviously it's the same information, but it is written for little kids - that's not my thought, it's uncontroverted.

g.f.s.rocks g.f.s.rocksOG 2001

How will you be able to teach your future kids about Jehovah with this publication, if you yourself have not completed it?

web-toedchloe web-toedchloeOG 2001 g.f.s.rocks

Well if I have kids, I'll read it. I do the bible reading every week and that has the same info; it's not like I'm missing anything. Little kids just retain info better, especially if it's in story form. I wouldn't retain it better than a bible chapter at this age anyway.

g.f.s.rocks g.f.s.rocksOG 2001 web-toedchloe

Hey IF's can happen by mistake... I do agree though that the older you get the retention starts to diminish

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 web-toedchloe

well its nice to know you retain EVERYTHING from the bible and dont need bible aids. :P

A
alexOG 2001

sure the writing is for little kids, so it should be right on your level. oh! lol.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

oh i still refer to my book of bible stories when i need to refresh my memory of something. it just explains everything so easily.

tesoro #366.2.1.2 tesoroOG 2001

characters is the correct phrase...bible characters, even though it's true, they are still characters in a book.

forrestina #366.2.2 forrestinaOG 2002

one of my girlfriends joked that she is waiting for king david. he's strong but sensitive.

thatdarngirl #366.2.3 thatdarngirlOG 2002

I think because we are reading about their lives and some portions of the bible are more like stories, sometimes, than historical accounts?

Various OED definitions for character:
-A person regarded in the abstract as the possessor of specified qualities; a personage, a personality.
-colloq. A person, man, fellow (freq. slightly derogatory)
-A personality invested with distinctive attributes and qualities, by a novelist or dramatist; also, the personality or ‘part’ assumed by an actor on the stage.

Right around the 2:25 mark.. it gets amazing

sorry Fergie fans

i didn't see anything amazing...? it seemed pretty retarded and lame the whole way through

who goes to concerts like this anyway, it seems like the lamest thing ever

magnum #365.1.1 magnumOG 2001

yeah what were we supposed to see? cause i want my 3 minutes back

iwz #365.1.2 iwz

a blog commented on the video about how crappy her rapping is, and how it just gets worse and worse in that video.

i think that's what kam is trying to get across here

magnum #365.1.2.1 magnumOG 2001

sorry i am not up on the cool blogging stuff

malibu #365.2 malibuOG 2001

i feel like maybe she just shouldnt wear such high heels. cuz she was on some vh1 award and she was awesome but at some point it just looked like she would fall over

juicymango #365.3 juicymangoOG 2003

yeah sorry "amazing" was totally sarcastic that was the worst and lamest mumbling drunk performance ever

socalgal #365.4 socalgalOG 2003

as much as i love her, i must admit, this was a horrible.

this was a horrible performance too:

tesoro #365.5 tesoroOG 2001

ugh, i hate her, and her stupid voice, and her stupid speaking in songs, constantly.

theremin #364 thereminOG 2002

Anyone ever start an eBay store? Is it easy enough? I'm gonna be creating one this week.

coreyfeldman #364.1 coreyfeldmanOG 2003

you really want to buy a house, huh?

theremin #364.1.1 thereminOG 2002

Yes, but this has nothing to do with it. My cousin got tons of product for free from a distributor. Thing is, wish I had at least month's notice for this.

coreyfeldman #363 coreyfeldmanOG 2003

Lame, the Parent company of the foundation I work for is celebrating their 10 year anniversary, as a celebration, they gave away cookies with the number 10 on them and "launched a new screen saver on our computer screens."

web-toedchloe #363.1 web-toedchloeOG 2001

Do they make you wear pieces of flare?

thefunkyfresh #363.1.1 thefunkyfreshFounder

thatdarngirl #362 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Oh man..I just swallowed a piece of popcorn whole by an accident. I'm dying.

fivezero #362.1 fivezeroOG 2003

this reminds me of something. quite a while ago, i was with some friends at the movies and during the previews we were horsing around, throwing popcorn, semi-long range into each others mouths. so, my one friend, sitting kinda far away, closes her eyes and opens her mouth. i threw a piece of popcorn pretty hard. it landed right directly in the back of her throat. right away she made that "hughghghggh" sound and it sounded like she was choking to death. i was all doing the loud whisper "are you okay?! are you okay?!" everyone's like "OMG! what's happening to her?!" she finally coughed it out. her eyes were all watering. it was rough. my aim was just a little TOO true.

thatdarngirl #362.1.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

That was the perfect excuse to make out with her and you missed it!

socalgal #362.1.2 socalgalOG 2003

OMG HAHAHA poor thing. man five oh you have a deadly aim!

forrestina #361 forrestinaOG 2002

really productive field service today! my dad placed the greatest man book with a very spiritually minded young guy. and i had a nice convo with a stay-at-home mom who asked ME for my phone number so she can call me with questions about the magazine.

thatdarngirl #361.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Fresty, you're totally having the best experiences down there! You should be in the next Yearbook--South Jersey!

superhero #361.1.1 superheroOG 2004

haha... that would be hysterical. Experiences from the 2007 Yearbook - South Africa, Lithunia, and South Jersey (not the beach part, but the hick part)

thatdarngirl #361.1.1.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Hahaha I love the clarification of which part!

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

it's good he made that clarification. i'm from south jersey and i'm no hick!

theremin thereminOG 2002

You mean Central Jersey. There's 2 hours more of Jersey to the South.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

i've heard of our area being called south jersey much, much more than central jersey. i guess it's splitting hairs.

theremin thereminOG 2002

Here's how I see it. Middlesex and above is North. Ocean and Monmouth are Central. Burlington and below is South.

superhero superheroOG 2004

here's how i see it.

above Exit 145 (West Orange and Above)- North Jersey
between 144 and 115 (East Orange to Hazlet) - Central
below 115 (Hazlet to Cape May and anything else) - South

having said that, I lived in the northern most town in the entire state ... haha

iwz iwz superhero

are these parkway exit numbers, or turnpike? i never know

iwz iwz iwz

it's gotta be parkway

superhero superheroOG 2004 iwz

first off zabel, you live too far from civilization out there in hacketts-"no man's-land"-town - turnpike is scary, parkway is the only safe way to travel.

iwz iwz superhero

one time somebody asked me what exit i live off of, and i had no idea how to answer the question. i live off of route 80.

theremin thereminOG 2002 superhero

Well That's obviously just because the more North in Jersey one is, one seems to think that a bigger region is considered South Jersey. But, if you're going by dividing up the parkway, it would be something more like Exit 1 - 57 is South, 57 - 114 Central, 114 and above, North.

g.f.s.rocks g.f.s.rocksOG 2001 superhero

Actually wouldnt anything below the big bridge be considered South Jersey? I think thats exit 119 or below that...

theremin thereminOG 2002 g.f.s.rocks

That's messed up. haha

theremin thereminOG 2002 g.f.s.rocks

Obviously, Northerns will never accept people living below part of central ever. But that doesn't matter. All the Centrals know that to be a real Southerner you have to be Piney pretty much. And have fun trying to find a Piney in Ocean County. There's a couple hidden in Western part where it almost touches the border of Burlington.. that's it.

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 g.f.s.rocks

That's the way I split it up...big bridge!

theremin thereminOG 2002 thatdarngirl

Wikipedia states otherwise! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Jersey

theremin thereminOG 2002 theremin

Notice the key points where it states --> "...This leads many North Jersey residents to claim that Central Jersey simply does not exist."
As well as notice Ocean County is considered part of the Central Jersey region, while Burlington County is not.

It's like a combo of geography as well as culture and urbanisation that make an area of Jersey, Central or South.

theremin thereminOG 2002 theremin

"Ocean County is a county located in the U.S. state of New Jersey. It the southernmost county in the New York metropolitan area, with the Southern part of the county falling in the Philadelphia metro area. Its county seat is Toms River6. As of the United States 2000 Census, the population was 510,916. 2005 Census Bureau estimates show the county's population growing to around 555,000, making it the fastest growing county in New Jersey.

Ocean County was established in 1850 from portions of Monmouth County."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_County

web-toedchloe web-toedchloeOG 2001 theremin

Aren't Newark and Jersey City considered central jersey? That's what I always thought. Anything like 100 miles above them is North and 100 miles below is south (at least in the map in my head).

iwz iwz web-toedchloe

if you head 100 miles north of Newark, you're about 70 miles into New York state...

web-toedchloe web-toedchloeOG 2001 iwz

God, is it hate-on webby day? Fine, I have no sense of time or distance and apparently I don't desire to learn new things about the bible. I'm heading up to my roof to jump off now.

iwz iwz web-toedchloe

wait a sec, don't take that as an attack! newark is definitely north jersey, imo. it's way up there is all i'm saying.

unless you consider like only sussex county to be north jersey.

theremin thereminOG 2002 web-toedchloe

Well I guess the people way way up North might see those cities as Central. Technically, I don't think it's a fair division. Btw, I'll hopefully be in PA in early 2007 funnily enough.

g.f.s.rocks g.f.s.rocksOG 2001 thatdarngirl

Thank you! At least Im not the only one who splits it up that way!!

theremin thereminOG 2002 g.f.s.rocks

Do you even know what bridge it is? haha. Anyway, I think that'd mean South Jersey is bigger than North Jersey and no such thing as Central Jersey. I'm not bothered, 'cause I'm gonna be a Pennsylvanian soon.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 theremin

Which bridge?

superhero superheroOG 2004 fivezero

he means the raritan bridge ... haha

theremin thereminOG 2002 superhero

Yeh, I figured he did mean the Raritan Bridge. haha Just bringing it up for a laugh. It'd be odd to be from New Jersey and not even know what bridge that is.

g.f.s.rocks g.f.s.rocksOG 2001 theremin

I know its the Raritan Bridge, but all my life it has been referred to as the "Big Bridge" and if your going south on the GSP over the "Big Bridge" you can spot the cross making factory, or well what looks like one... look for it next time, its on your right it looks like a factory building with a huge cross on it... I guess its a church, but it could be a factory!

theremin thereminOG 2002 g.f.s.rocks

Garden State Parkway Map of Central Jersey http://www.state.nj.us/turnpike/gsp-cmap.htm
And that's the word of the NJ Government

g.f.s.rocks g.f.s.rocksOG 2001 theremin

Ahhhh... whatever If your not in Bergen County your south of me so your Southern Jersey....

superhero superheroOG 2004 g.f.s.rocks

raritan bridge is between exit 126 and 124 ... (?)

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 superhero

that's about right. right after the bridge is the 287 exit, which is 127. 129 is the pike.

Wouldnt Central Jersey be considered... ummm more Central? Like going west on 80 all that would be considered Central Jersey (i.e. Hackettstown, Parsippany, Morristown...) I mean anything that is south of Passaic County and west of that would all be central... right?

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

Ocean and Burlington county are right next each other, side by side, so by your own rationale Ocean County is South Jersey. See, now, if you were to split Jersey into three equal parts, top to bottom, yes, we'd be in the bottom portion of Central Jersey. I don't know, man. Splitting hairs. Will you accept South Central Jersey?

theremin thereminOG 2002 fivezero

They are, except Burlington county people actually consider themselves Southerns and act like it too.

theremin thereminOG 2002 fivezero

The accent changes when South of Ocean County. Ocean people still have the Central accent. So there's another thing. Yeh, actually South Central is most correct.

Ok, so I found a WiFi hotspot that is one block from my apartment. But it appears the WLAN connection is the issue in my PSP (well it's Jake's actually). Does that mean I need to buy a piece of hardware to connect to it?

theremin #353 thereminOG 2002

My job review was awesome!

socalgal #353.1 socalgalOG 2003

NICE!!!! did you get a raise too? we get our reviews this week.

theremin #353.1.1 thereminOG 2002

No raise unfortunately. I mean, it's a commission only job. When you get to certain dollar levels, the amount we keep from the commission split is increased and what the broker and company takes decreases. But, I haven't reached the first level required for a bigger piece of the commission. Hopefully I will in 2007.

theremin #353.1.2 thereminOG 2002

Basically, I happy enough, to not get demoted. Yes, I could always switch over to another company, and I'd get hired like that. But, I wanna stay at this company.. for now anyway. It'd be hassle switching companies.. getting new signs, new business cards, telling all my leads I'm at different company, getting my license moved to a new office, etc etc etc. And, my current company I think provides an advantage for me getting business, since we're well known, and have a lot to offer, and such. I don't know if I'd have as good a chance at getting business as I do with this company.

iwz #353.1.2.1 iwz

Good for you, man. I'm sure your business will really pick up this spring, maybe even sooner. My sister in law is a new realtor and she's having a rough time with right now. Just not the hot market it was a year ago.

theremin thereminOG 2002

Thanks a lot. Buyers are finally ready to put offers in, since they realise the market's gone down as much as it's going to go down and if they wait any longer they'll miss the all time lowest mortgage rates and mortgage rates can easily go up faster than they can go down. So, it seems like people are finally reacting to it. Home sales have increased in past couple months. And sellers are finally realising if they want to really sell, they have to settle on a fair price. You can't expect to get over market value for your own house while expecting to "steal" the house you buy. It's all relative and evens out.

socalgal #352 socalgalOG 2003

this is pretty funny. you can upload a pic of yourself and it tells you what celeb you resemble:

I remember traffic stopping at a specific mile marker driving down 78 in NJ because the sun was rising and casting a glare. All the losers who don't think to buy sunglasses would slam on their brakes. We all need personal helicopters.

chris, my brother and I camped out for the Wii Saturday night. We hung out and slept outside of Target in 35 degree weather. That's where it's at! haha it was so fun. We made fast friends with our little area of the line. We banned together, trusted each other to all share food and supplies and fall asleep together outside without fear of being robbed or killed by one another or, worse, yet, by our place in line being usurped, and now.. we will never see each other again. it's sad.

iwz #350.1 iwz

You are a true nerd, Kam. And all nerdy menz out there are now jealous of Chris.

4 player tennis is where it's at! Wiiiii Partiiiiiii

juicymango #350.1.1 juicymangoOG 2003

i love living in a world where doing something relatively dumb makes me cool

haha

the best part of the night was when i went back to my parents house to use the bathroom.. and my dad was still up and I took him back with me to "the line" and brought an acoustic guitar and my dad and chris sang songs and played guitar until their fingers froze

Chris at one point started singing "i can't feel my fingers" and like 10 people from the line started singing along and it was sooo funny oh man

juicymango #350.1.1.1 juicymangoOG 2003

one guy we called Cocoon because he was wrapped up in a heavy duty sleepin bag.. Chris made a song about the cocoon turning into a beautiful butterfly

LOL

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

AW kam you truly are the best!!! i would've been out there in line with you guys singing. or actually humming cause i cant sing! LOL

iwz iwz

ahahahaha, chris has the wackiest songs. but that one sounds like a real gem.

VIDEO, stat!

juicymango juicymangoOG 2003

A viewer wrote in to ask Pat Robertson a question:

Why [do] evangelical Christians tell non-Christians that Jesus (God) is the only way to Heaven? Those who are Hindu, Buddhist, Islamic, etc. already know and have a relationship with God. Why is this? It seems disrespectful.

Robertson replied that it is not all disrespectful because all other religions really just worship “demonic powers.”

No. They don’t have a relationship. There is the god of the Bible, who is Jehovah. When you see L-O-R-D in caps, that is the name. It’s not Allah, it’s not Brahma, it’s not Shiva, it’s not Vishnu, it’s not Buddha. It is Jehovah God. They don’t have a relationship with him. He is the God of all Gods. These others are mostly demonic powers. Sure they’re demons. There are many demons in the world.

we had the PERFECT sister handle the #3 talk tonight. she won't wear a shirt unless it has a collar that comes up under her chin. and i don't know about all of your congregations, but every time we're in song of solomon they have a teenage boy do the reading. that just amuses me.

juicymango #346.1 juicymangoOG 2003

yeah we had like a 10 year old.. it was so funny.. he said the word "breasts" very fast like it was so cute/funny

You could tie it into armageddon - Maybe you could be discussing with a newer publisher that we're studying the revelation book and she's always been scared of that kind of prophecy because she thinks it means the destruction of the earth. Maybe?

g.f.s.rocks #346.9 g.f.s.rocksOG 2001

there's a web browser on there. use that. you'll have to configure the WiFi first, and, of course, you'll need to have WiFi available at your location.

B
#342.1.1 brothermanOG 2004

What is WiFi? Sorry, I am not literate with that stuff.

iwz #342.1.1.1 iwz

Wireless 802.11 Internet access. If you're at a location with a "WiFi Hotspot", or something like that, you can use it on your PSP. If there's not wireless access there, you can't use it.

B
brothermanOG 2004

I found one in Stanhope, but I'm in Hackettstown. Is the "Hotspot" a store? What does that mean? Teach me Gameboy.

web-toedchloe web-toedchloeOG 2001

Why do you have a PSP if you know nothing about technology?

B
brothermanOG 2004

My ex-wife bought it for my son. I was fiddling with it last night and saw you could go onto the internet. That's why.

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder

a hotspot is a place where you can get wireless internet. the closest place to you that has it i think is panera

will panera work with it, though? or do they lock it down somewhat? not sure..

fivezero #341.1 fivezeroOG 2003

someone might be trying to tell you something.

this reminds me of what i'd do to my old boss now and then. he'd always leave his coat all around or on a chair somewhere. and from time to time i'd be compelled to put some of whatever i was eating into his pockets. trail mix, skittles, cheez-its. though i kinda crossed the line with a pizza crust one time. we got a good laugh though.

malibu #341.1.1 malibuOG 2001

my boss puts tons of stuff in my friends pockets cuz he wears such baggy pants so he said one time he went to hollywood video and he took his wallet from his back pocket to pay and an anchovy flopped out from his wallet onto the counter with a bunch of chickpeas.

or one time he woke up after a night of drinking in a strange house and kept wondering why it smelled like fish and it was because he had bad clams in his pocket and that's why his game was so bad the night before. hysterical!!

How do I create a link to a word document?

My firm hired a marketing person who was supposed to be updating the website, but she's never done any web stuff, so I'm on my own still. :(

iwz #336.1 iwz

There's a few basic things you need to do:

1. upload the .doc file to your website.
2. figure out what the URL is. (either the full URL, or the relative URL from the page you're linking from)
3. make a link to it in your HTML.

which part do you need help with?

web-toedchloe #336.2 web-toedchloeOG 2001

Nevermind - I thought it was something more complicated than that; I figured it out. I had flashbacks to that time over the summer when I couldn't figure out something with the FTP and all the attorneys were yelling at me. You saved me then too, Ian! :) Thanks!
