Yeah, I've got another new RAZR phone. You want it?? You got it. PM me where you want me to send it. Hell, take two, they're small.

Oh, and yes, of COURSE I know how much they cost. I bought them, didn't I?? And, please do indicate if you want both of the ones remaining or just the one.

See to it that the cats are packaged and ready, because the goons don't like to tarry around.

Say "No" to Drugs!

DixieGal

Tell the goons that they'll be tarrying without their family jewels, because anyone who tries to "conscript" my babies will have them sawed off with a rusty file.

Or, if they prefer, I can think of something much more painful.

DixieGal, why not stop by my place before heading over to visit the Queen? I'll brew a fresh pot of tea, with scones provided by the Muffin Man. We'll see if you still feel like conquering the world after that....

Yes ma'am, I promise to be good if I can have a muffin. Please, do any of them have cinnamon struesel on top?

Thank you,

I dunno. If these muffins and scones are as good as advertised, perhaps DixieGal will try to conscript the Muffin Man himself, to take with her.

Could be. Or there might be some warm apple crisp with a side of vanilla bean ice cream.

Yes, I'm serious. I wouldn't have offered them to you if I wasn't serious. (I mean, I realize I'm a pain in the ass, but I wouldn't tease someone like that. That would just be mean!!)

At one time I had a cell phone number in California and one in Texas. And .... I bought new phones for them every few months ... just because. So, now that I am trying to get rid of a lot of the excess "crap" around here, the extra RAZR phones need to go .....

When I sent the IPAQ to Prash in India .... I think the shipping ran about $17 or so .... I'm not certain, it's been a while. He just reimbursed me the shipping via Paypal after I sent it to him (so we knew what the shipping was).
I'm sure we can work something out.

I also gave the plumber one of my Wacom tablets, I gave his brother in law a portable DVD player ... I've got gadgets upon gadgets in this house. It is scary. Plain old scary.

Well, um, Xena has her own whip and will probably slice yours to pieces with her sharp chakram (the round sharp thing at her belt). On the other hand, *Deb* is indeed a quiet follower.

Extroverts tend to "fade" when alone and can easily become bored without other people around. When given the chance, an extrovert will talk with someone else rather than sit alone and think. In fact, extroverts tend to think as they speak, unlike introverts who are far more likely to think before they speak. Extroverts often think best when they are talking. Concepts just don't seem real to them unless they can talk about them; reflecting on them isn't enough.

Yup. That explains why I had to move out from my hubby and get a separate place. He keeps talking, just to fill the air ..... and meanwhile, I am getting more and more drained from that same talking. He keeps a radio going 24 hrs a day, just so there is noise in his now empty (but for him) house. I haven't turned my TV on in 14 months. I listen to the radio while I am making my dinner or the doggies's, but I turn it off when I sit down to eat and read.

Sigh .... bliss! Except that I do keep having him over for dinner. Then the evening is full of words again, and I have to unwind afterwards. (and ignore half of it, even while it is occurring)

holy cow !! listen, if you're giving away a wacom tablet for the price of shipping, i'd rather have that than a razr. let me know if you have any other small, not-too-heavy (thinkinf of the shipping...) gadgets you want to get rid of : i might be able to help you out.

Well, the Wacom tablet was already claimed. But, I'll start posting here when I have more stuff that needs to go bye-bye. Maybe if you took both RAZRs, you could sell one or both of them there and buy a new Wacom tablet??

It's a thought anyway.

I can help you get rid of a Wacom tablet, if you've got another you need a home for. Actually, anything graphics-oriented, because I'm trying to help two high schools in my area get set up to do 3d art in their art departments. I have two salvaged iMacs here that I plan to upgrade to OSX and install Daz Studio and a bunch of legal freebies, and maybe ArtRage and Comic Book Edit.
