Keep your mitts off that galaxy! The Drengin Empire has first dibs on it and anything else out there.

Very much agree with you Murderlin. Especially about how humor can help at the oddest times. And I think that subject line on the email was pretty clever.

“It’s just better for everyone involved if I have a professional prepare them for me.”

Don’t forget that if you find all this tax form stuff a bit intimidating, you can get free tax preparation assistance from the AARP Foundation Tax-aide program, which kicks off across the nation starting in February. You don’t have to be an AARP member, be a certain age or have made less than a certain amount, most…

Maybe over at Jezebel?

But how many copies of Harry Potter do people really need?

I’d like to throw another one in there, unless it is in the list (crap, did I miss it?). Anyway...

Another fun fact: One of the most famous sufferers of rosacea and rhinophyma was J. P. Morgan, financier, banker and one of the most powerful men in the late 19th and early 20th century United States. Morgan was notorious for not wanting to have his photograph taken, although he would attribute his reticence to his…

Next at 11pm, MC Hammer sues destiny for appropriating the “hammer dance”.

So, any truth to the rumor that Curry is going to replace Neil deGrasse Tyson as host of Cosmos? I understand that Curry said he is looking forward to it as he always wanted to do a nude centerfold.

My wife is an absolute Christmas devotee, not unusual when you consider that both her mother and brother were born on Christmas Day. We have lots of decorating, holiday music, visiting with the relatives, etc. For many a year the tradition was Christmas with one set of relatives, New Years with another.

Well, Warrka, you’re entitled to your opinion. My local carrier is very, very reliable, helpful and conscientious. And same goes for the local post offices I frequent. I’ve sent or received a couple thousand books over the years and I can count on two hands the number of books that didn’t arrive, although it is quite…

That’s just weird, having post offices closed but having most employees working. I just don’t see the point.

Ah, what? Most of the USPS is going to get a paid holiday? I’m also mourning President Bush, whom I actually met, but I don’t think that this is a good reason to waste the taxpayers money. And I think Bush would agree.

JC3 crashed a lot on PC too

My wife and I have both been using AT&T Z222 flip phones with prepaid plans. When we got them a couple of years ago to replace our older AT&T flip phones, they were $15 apiece at Walmart. We also got $100 for a year plans. Work fine, no problems.

It’s not that it’s an hour to set up things, rather that it takes time to get the hospital running and achieving enough that you get a star or otherwise unlock the new content for that level. While I understand the point of making a game of it to get the new content, it’s just that for  the sixth time (I’m on my sixth…

I’ve got about 24 hours in the game now and it’s pretty good, but I’m on my sixth hospital in the campaign and I’m finding the game suffers from the same problem that affects the Tropico series. You keep starting off with an empty building and you have to go through the same hour or so of getting everything running…

I don’t think I’ve ever thrown away an old toothbrush. They are so handy for so many uses, like cleaning tiles, doing some trick painting touches and our main use, cleaning out the packed sand from the bottom of the legs of a canopy we take to the beach.
