    More Smileys Not Working Under Firefox

    Under Firefox, when you click on the "More" link for emoticons, all Iget is a blank popup that says "Page generated in 0.06776 seconds with 11 queries [page compression: 11.53 k/11.81 k (2.33%)]". Is anyone else getting this? Under IE it appears things are working fine.

    So how much should I budget for a TV?

    I did some preliminary number crunching and it looks like I'll be getting back a decent amount of money from Uncle Sam this year. See...it did pay off to have 3 kids within 26 months of each other. I'm tired of shelling out money on them and I'd like to finally upgrade into this HD thing...

    Santa's coming early this year

    Service finally became available this morning in about the last 45 minutes. I know because I've been checking it about once an hour since I got up at 6. I signed up for the 15/2 plan, but seperated billing for data and phone as I'm looking forward to ditching Verizon's overpriced phone...
