Selling my Buffett Collection on Ebay

Due to some recent financial difficulties, I'm having to sell pretty much anything I can. It's now come down to having to sell my Buffett collection and it is killing me. If you know anyone that might be looking for some Buffett CD's, would you mind directing them to this Ebay listing: http://cgi.eb...

Battery made out of sugar

Maybe my wife is right, I am an enginerd, but I thought this was fascinating. It really is a battery that uses sugar as its main source of energy

662nd PLACE !!!!!

I finished and I wasn't last :D :D 662 out of 680 It took 2 hours and 40 minutes, but I managed to finish the half-marathon (13.2 miles) Saturday!!! My pace towards the end was terrible - my legs started cramping at mile 11 but I walked them off and ran the last mile. Nowhere to go but up from here !

good luck, from a fellow marathoner! Thanks to Everyone for the encouragement!! I hope to run a full marathon by the fall. I'll be 42 in August so I'm hoping for a plane ticket to Chicago as a birthday present to run the LaSalle Chicago Marathon in October. The odd thing about this is that I used t...

Wish me Luck!!

This Saturday (March 10th), I'm running a 1/2 marathon in Charlotte. I'm getting a little nervous because this is only my third race ever (The other two were over 2 years ago). Wish me luck, I'm going to need it.

Anybody else running this weekend????

Got about 1/3 of the way through Conroy's "Prince of Tides" and had to stop. His work is good but it depressing. Someone always committs suicide and I just wasn't up for that. Went to the library and checked out "Skin Tight" by Carl Hiaasen. Another great read. Finished it in 3 d...

Fox has pulled off one of the biggest scams in the histry of television by getting so many people to give a s*** about this show. what Larry said. I used to think the same thing... until I sat down with my wife and watched it. Now, I kind of enjoy it. Even if it is a big karaoke contest, who cares?...

Re: Prince of Tides

Prince of Tides Pat Conroy I love that book. One of my favorites. Have you read Beach Music? I read it a couple of months ago. I'm seeing alot of similarities between it and Prince of Tides. Both are good reads though. Suicide seems to be a common theme in all of Conroys novels that I've read (incl...

I've been trying to read that off and on for 6 months ... :oops:
Conroy does tend to get very wordy in his descriptions of the landscape. Sometimes, you need a dictionary with you when you read Conroy because he can pull some words out thin air.

Sonic Commercial

I usually hate all those Sonic commercials but my wife and I saw one last night that made us fall in the floor laughing. It was hilarious. Has anyone else seen this one? (Couldn't find it on YouTube) The man and woman are sitting in the car drinking something frothy. The woman gets a whipped cream m...
