Thank you. My job is done here.


Okay, lets see. Who's next?



Curly? Madame Z? Has any of this helped? Personally, I can't wait to get into a store and actually handle one.

Oh, I beg to differ! I am doing my very best to be a great patriot and to help turn my country onto the road of economic recovery! At least that's what I tell my husband when I head off to the mall!!

So *you're* my competition. I knew I had some but I didn't know who it was. No need to compete, there's enough economic stimulation needed to keep us both busy. We can alternate the lead.

Well, I could give you both some stiff competition, but my husband insists we pay cash.

Not very patriotic, is he?

I suppose this cut-down version was made just for BB."
That is NOT the 1000HE, avoid getting a "made for the store" type netbook. Get the real thing. It is worth every penny you pay for it.

Inspection's today, so I won't be around much.

Best of luck, Ricky, although, with all the work you've been doing, I doubt you'll need it.

Wasn't able to finish everything. The rooms where the cats actually live are clean. However, My office and project rooms look like a bomb went off.

Technically, however, they are not allowed to look in those rooms .... and I will have a huge hissy fit if they even try.

Buy the 1000HE, DG ...... Buuuuyyyyy iiiiiiiitttttt!
