Thanks! And I see you just got your 650, so you know how hard they are to get.

That is the sole reason I bought one! Checked a couple of times if they are available and started to develop fear of getting none in the future/greed. So when they showed up I hit that buy-me button without thinking twice

Actually I can't afford it this month, but you only live twice, so I don't give a damn

What surprised me about it is the fact that it is more sturdy and seems to be better equipped for a long live than the 350. In the long run I guess I will be very happy to have it.

My SO is going on a trip in a few hours and out of the blue, asked me if I picked out a book for him to read on his trip. I looked at him like he had two heads because he travels all the time and has never asked for a book. He said this time is different because he's going to be travelling to his destination in a car, but flying home. At first I thought to give him the ereader, but he broke my very first reader, the Sony blue 505, when he was travelling with it, so I said that maybe he should take a book. He gets bored easily so I figured I'd better give him a really well written book. I suggested Wally Lamb's I Know This Much Is True. However, it's such a large book, it's probably not the best for travelling. So I said that I would let him use my Sony 650 but he must know that they're in short supply so replacing it, won't be easy, if it gets broken, so be careful. But just now, as I was Venting and Ranting, I remembered that I have a Kindle!! Which is totally replaceable! AND... if he doesn't like my choice, he can download whatever book he wants, while on the road, because it's 3G. That was close!

OK, I'm fine now. No vent or rant needed. My Sony 650 is safe.
Whew!

Have you ever entered the karma points in the description by mistake and given the recipient the full amount?

No one you know/like so don't fret.

Oh gawd. there's a trail . . . .

I think I'll just go to bed now.
Good night.

It's the first time I tried to give someone a percentage of 1 karma as well. Arrrgh

You can't add just one.

Sorry Kenny what I meant was her Karma can't be bumped to an even number, no matter what you add to it.

Hmm, I know I've had problems "rounding someone" it was discussed somewhere... I decided not to worry about it. Why Worry Be Happy.

Sorry to hear that Wodin, although I have always felt like my job was expendable and I'm my own boss, for now

Good luck with work.

Best case: The Government will shut down for a few days and Congress will authorize retroactive back pay like they did in 1995. I wouldn't even mind if they charged it off as leave.

Worst case: FORCLOSURE!
