...2$? What a deal
A Day ticket here costs 5$!
A one way fare with (hopefully*) a 2 hr transfer is 2.50$.
...and more bus service reductions are in the cards.
*Today I was "shorted" by a half hour & feared I would have to pay a second fare to get all the way home. This has occurred in the past.
...hah, at 160 I have you all beat.
Am too addicted to C&C to ever be in the same room with it again
...for me it was Civ. Had a few too many nights when I looked up at the clock it was 9:30pm and the next thing I knew it was getting light out. This is why I no longer do any computer games.
...hah, at 160 I have you all beat.
I'll be 160 in August. :)
@Wooly: I hope your foot heals up well, and it doesn't hurt too much.
@Rezca: Congratulations!

Complaint/question: Why is it that if you buy something after a search at eBay, they will forever keep sending emails with "suggestions for you" with that thing in it? I searched for and found a Pampered Chef cheese grater with the storage cup add-on. I bought it. I was satisfied. Now every time I get an email from them about suggestions, there are more cheese graters...not the one I was looking for, just random ones.
Dana
eBay knows that what you really need is 50 cheese graters, even if you do not know it yourself.

Well, we really got that one because our had a crack in the storage cup and we wanted a spare. So we actually have two full sets, and that's plenty.
It seems that DAZ3D has the same idea as eBay, then. We really need 200 skimpy, almost not there outfits for V4, A4, etc. that all look just about the same. And we need to buy the same models that we have for V4 when they're re-rigged for Genesis/V5.

Complaint: The new Monthly Freebie is not free...it says $2.99. I am still a PC member, so it should be free.
When will this store be without these constant glitches?
Dana
Greetings,
N.b.: Try adding the monthly freebie into your cart, then going to your Shopping Cart page. Apparently it should provide a $2.99 discount, so it becomes free again.
Now...eBay is my wheelhouse... The deal is that there are many buckets you can put items into. The 'I need things like this regularly' or the 'I need one of these' categories, for example. eBay's big market for a long time was collectibles, and recurring needs (like packaging, or re-sale items). If you were interested in collectible X, there's a REALLY good chance you'll be interested in collectible X', as well as X'' and X'''. Unfortunately eBay has moved from being a collectibles-oriented site, to a general marketplace. (It was a change they had to make to grow and continue to exist; niche is death.) So now, if I buy a trash can, it's VERY unlikely that I'm going to need another one for a few years. Still, if you're buying to re-sell, or you're buying for recurring needs (I need 15 boxes every month to mail stuff out in) then the reminders make sense.
So it's mainly a carry-over from earlier days when they were 90% right if they told you about similar items to what you'd already bought.
Amazon is still not great at this; if I buy a Blu-Ray player from them, they'll advertise more blu-ray players at me. I know, from folks who work there, that they're working on this.
As for myself, my ObComplaint is this: Remarketing sucks! If I happen to drop by a car site, because I errantly clicked a link, it is beyond creepy and annoying that on NON-CAR sites I browse for the next few hours, I'll see advertisements for the car site, or even the specific car, that I had clicked on. This is called Remarketing, and it gets my dander up like nothing else!
...and yet, I know that for many products, it works really well. :(

I'll try your suggestion about the freebie. As for Magento...I seriously don't see anyone saying they want it back. The old store had issues now and then, but never as much and as prevalent as this. And this is software they said they tested and it all worked perfectly. It hasn't worked perfectly since the day it was launched! Near perfect would be a treat! Please remember, they complained about the old site, and the fact that they didn't want to be doing any more custom coding, because that is what gave them so much trouble. Ten months later almost, and I venture to say that there's so much custom coding that it's almost looking like the old site. And in the mean time, we've lost features that I'm sure we'll never get back "because the software doesn't support it."

Dana, you too can become an obsessive cheese grater collector.
Plus a Beagle update drop: I tried to incorporate your suggestions by making the hair longer, and making it lie flatter against the skin. I also found out what was causing the extra sheen and toned it down. I played around with some of the settings to get the hair to look more like fur and reposed the tail. And moved the dog so the light pole doesn't stick out of his head. :lol:
Closer to production quality, 90000 fibres

What was the sheen? With LAMH backlight/no shadows makes the frizzy bits pop but that's not a real useful setup most of the time:

There is a setting in the Garibaldi Editor called "salting" that throws random white hairs in. I had it on by mistake.
where the breakfast munchies? one of those all you can eat buffets.
if there really is a restaurant at the end of the universe, i hope it has all you can eat yummies buffetts.
and no bubbafetts around looking for bounties.
I couldn't find a breakfast buffet, but here's a dancing cactus.
Cactar? I forget how the name is spelled XD
But I hated those guys in Final Fantasy X :P
10;000 Needles = Not Fun
Complaint: New PC freebie is not free. I'm sure they'll have that fixed "s**n".
Ugh, poor you! {{{Anne }}} :sick: Feel better soonest!
Hopes you are not in pain while you wait :)
No pain, just a mild stiffness. I'm in decent shape! :)

Well, that blows! Day pass here is $2, 30 day pass is $30.. best transit deal in the country, I think.
Bus cuts, feh. Feh. FEH!

4-6" tonight. 1-2" tomorrow and another 1-2" tomorrow night. = hmm, carry the one 6 - 10" echo echo kilo sierra
rummaging for the aerosmith 10" song again.
May be the stomach virus that everyone around here (East Tennessee) has had.
Symptoms: Suddenly and without any warning, everything inside you will spew out immediately. My nausea lasted 24 hours. Some people with weaker immune systems have had to be hospitalized for several days. If you have this, I hope yours is mild.
Slept nearly all day yesterday. I feel much better this morning, first coffee since night before last. Still a little weak, but more coffee will help that.
The on advantage to having neuropathy in my feet (nerve damage) is that I have zero pain. You can literally stick a needle in my foot and I won't feel it. :bug: The downside is, of course, having to keep an eye on my feet to make sure nothing has gone wrong, because I don't feel it if it does. :-S
y'know, those looseleaf binders with the clear "windows" seem a brilliant idea, until you have to wiggle a label down the binder side, and mercy if you have to get them out again. grr
Stop wussing and toss 150K-200K at it. Speaking as someone who did that in beta testing. ;) Remember that human head has 90K-120K hair alone.
Seriously, though -- you need more hair on that beast. Also, pay attention to root and tip thickness.
Ugh, head hurts. Code, code, code, doing writing lessons, reading books on character and scenery development, reading killer book on the mythology of Quetzalcoatl (Meso-American deity), reading some Raymond Chandler, more coding, yet more coding..
..finally it's lunch time and I have an annoying headache.
I rate it a "meh" day. :blank:
I'm going to clean up and sell my Asus laptop and get another tablet PC, I love my Lenovo tablet I use at work, and I want one for portable writing and reading Kindle books. :)
cambels chickie soup rice today. with a few carrot bits. no mushy peas.
mushy peas would be yummi with mashed potatoes. i don't have peas or potatoes at home. sigh. Friday is grocery day.
doh, i forgot to pick up food coloring, all the snow iz christmas cookie baking weather. specially since i still have my jingle hat on.
still haven't found a tasty bread recipe. i was using the e-how recipe, but it doesn't taste good after it cools off.
