Iceland is the not so cold one. Greenland is the giant iceburg type thing that sits towards the North Pole.

Iceland is the one with the active volcano screwing with Europe's air travel lately.
That country uses the fact they are sitting on top of lots of hot spots for their energy requirements.
Greenland is an oxymoron, I was there before & there was very little that was green !

*dances*

I've got one of these that I listen to whenever I'm doing assorted activities, and I've been having a hard time loading Mp3's onto it such that they wouldn't get out of track order for certain Cd's I like to listen to.

I finally got it to work right just now.

I opened up the device for exploration on my computer instead of going through Winamp, and loaded all the songs into one album folder with numerical track listings for filenames. Turned it on, and voila, all the songs I wanted are recognized as being in one folder in the correct track listing. Added bonus; the mp3 tags themselves are still intact, so the song-titles show up correctly on the player's screen instead of being jumbled garbage.

I'm happy.

I'm happy.

I remember years ago when I passed a placed called "Wizard of Bra"-- and it only sold bras, but I remember how fantastical the place looking from the outside... Til this day I've regretted not going inside just to see if it was equally gimmicky-- but a guy going to a bra place would probably make most women uncomfortable.

The outside looked like a castle, if I remember...

Not at all. I had a friend who worked in a Victoria's Secret, and she said a good 30% of their customers were men buying things for girlfriends/wives. It's really no different from me being in the underwear and sock aisle in the men's department at Target - pretty much everyone just assumes you're buying for someone else. You might find a few women here and there who are weird about it, but they're usually weird about shopping for bras in general, whether there are men in the store or not.

Well, it's not like I would go in there to buy a bra (because buying bras for either your sister and wife is just plain odd...)

I just only wanted to be inside a Bra Castle...

I'm just saying, if you went in, nobody would bat an eye.

Just a matter of opinion but for your wife, little less odd than your sister.

Yeah, I don't think a dude should know his sister's bra size.

One every 3 seconds, or 20 beats per minute when you count it out. Not a peppy enough beat if you ask me, but slow enough for some REALLY good Doom Metal.

DO IT, FUNK! MAKE A DOOM METAL BAND!

I hate it when that happens. My dad's the type that if he's not constantly doing something, he goes insane from boredom. So it was quite entertaining a few years ago when we went on our last family vacation together on a 5 day cruise through the Gulf of Mexico, and watched him lose his ever lovin' mind during the day when most of the ships activities were scheduled at night. XD

and the chick at the starbucks in Kentucky literally asked us as we paid for our coffee ," Good morning, have you taken Billy Ray Cyrus into your life yet this morning?"

I have never wanted to smack someone, more than this girl.

I wanted to outright strangle somebody today, and I as good as told my boss so. I swear, if I hear one more person say "Well, [competing retail chain] has it" I will snap.

You don't go to Burger King and order Chinese food, you don't go to a Chinese restaurant and ask for Taco Bell, and you don't go to Taco Bell and order Burger King... so why in the blue blazes would you bother coming to ME and asking for a product you know I don't have and then get mad when I tell you that I don't carry it? What does that accomplish beyond making me want to jump across the counter so I can gouge your eyes out with a paint can opener, hm?

Or go inside..........

Dammit, doesn't he know your the dominant and he's the submissive in this relationship? He's supposed to do what you say! Given him a gentle reminder of how this is supposed to work.

Gag gift.

That's all I'm saying, that's the only legitimate reason (beyond doing their laundry on a regular basis) to know a sibling's bra size. Wrap it up real nice, and present it to them at their birthday party when everybody is taking pictures.... just don't say it's from you.

Ok, if it's just for the gag and pictures then why would it have to be the correct size?
Also, if you present it to her she's going to know it's from you.
Also also, any stylistic choice of the particular bra will be used by your family members as insight to your taste in bras.

mistake... a continuation of a thought that was wrong... cause I have a sister and mother... but obviously no wife... disregard "wife"...

Remind me never to "price" a cross-country move again. Looks like I'm going to have to ditch my larger stuff and try to fit everything I need in a single car trip... and hope I don't break down on the way. Oog, this is more annoying than I thought it would be.

A good friend of mine got an anatomically correct, blow up sheep for a gag gift from his sister a couple of years ago & when he uncovered it (it was inflated with helium) he got this all sad look & then looked around at everyone & said " a sheep ...why would you get me that when you know I like cows "
It cracked everyone up ~:)

Make it that much funnier when she looks at the tag and realizes it's her size. That way you get pictures of the shock from her getting it, and from the dismay from the subtle realization that someone knows that kind of personal info about her. :-D

Also, if you present it to her she's going to know it's from you.

She'd find out one way or another.

... all right, now YOU'RE being creepy, dude.

I recently discovered half a bottle of Absolut Vanilla my brother left here when he moved out. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!!

Here in Michigan, we don't have an HOV lane. If you want to use the left lane, you just have to make sure you can go fast enough to not slow anyone else down (so help you god). This is a non-trivial task as, even though the Speed Limit is 70mph, if you're going less than 80 you might as well be a house... in the right lane.

Same here in Minnesota

My issue isn't so much about pricing as it is just people walking in assuming I have a particular brand or product that they know for a fact somebody else carries, then getting mad because I don't carry that product.

Example; those self-stick vinyl wall decorations. Some of my competitors carry them, but for whatever reason, we don't. I had a customer come in yesterday and ask if we carried them, and when I said we didn't, she angrily asked "WHY NOT?!" while her husband loudly announced "Well [competitor] has them, let's go there," then they turned around and walked out without buying a thing. So they came in knowing my competitors had the product they wanted, but they got mad at me (a mere flunky) for not having it. Shit like that.

Or better yet; ask me if I carry Porter or Sherwin Williams brand paint.

PLEASE somebody tell me you get this one without my having to explain it.

Dress up like R. Lee Ermy in Full Metal Jacket and go ballistic on him, peppering your language with such phrases as "world of shit" and "twinkle-toed c*cksucker," then make himself strangle himself with your hand. That should get his attention.

Happy Barbecue Day (weekend) everyone!

I'm listening to The Manhattan Transfer, drinking a beer and about to go grill me some steaks. It's sunny and 80 out... this is what summer is all about.

Your challenge is to write crossover fanfiction combining Lizzie McGuire and Futurama. The story should use possession by Satan as a plot device!

Bender becomes reprogrammed/possessed by Satan-bot, and the only one who can deprogram/save him is Lizzie McGuire... who got a doctorate degree in advanced robot spiritualism before she was cryogenetically frozen along side with Pauly Shore at the 1000 year anniversary screen of Jury Duty 2.

DONE.
