    Well Done Staples !

    I think the point here is to keep a very hazardous piece of electronic waste out of the landfill. I recycle my electronics (along with virtually everything that can be recycled). You (and people who think like you) are a big part of the problem. It's easier to just throw it away so to hell with...

    Car wreck - declared loss. What if I don't want to surrender vehicle?

    I don't know all of the rules and regulations of insurance but I did have a similar circumstance. In that case, the other driver was 100% at fault. If the vehicle can be repaired, you DO NOT have to have it repaired as long as repairs are not necessary to make it legally drivable. You can choose...

    Dont Buy Gas On 5-15-2007

    That is a much better idea. However, most Americans want something very simple and convenient to fool themselves into thinking they are doing something good. This whole May 15th nonsense is precisely that. It's easy and convenient and people can fool themselves into thinking they are actually...

    Dont Buy Gas On 5-15-2007

    These things are so incredibly stupid. They don't do anything except shift volume to another day. You still have to buy gas, either before or after the 15th. All you've done is increase the volume on one day in order to decrease volume on another day. It all averages out to the same. The only...

    Did the price of ketchup go up that much??

    That's why you go to a place that doesn't keep them behind the counter. For instance, our local Wendy's keeps the packets behind the counter but Burger King and Chick-fil-a do not. Next time you go to a place that puts up for grabs, grab a handful.

    Did the price of ketchup go up that much??

    I've had this problem too many times so I finally thought of way to fix it. I went inside to order which means you get your own ketchup packets (if that particular place has a pump ketchup dispenser, just go to another place that has the packets). I simply took a massive handful and put them in...

    xbox 360 at best buy this sunday

    I went this morning about 6:45. The store handed out 24 vouchers at 7:00. I would have been number 33 or 34. Of course, I wasn't stupid enough to spend the night in 20-degree weather. I'll get up early but I won't sleep outside.

    xbox 360 at best buy this sunday

    Just went by my local store. Supposed to have 24. There were about 10 people already in line. I'll get up in the morning just to see but I'm not stupid enough to spend the night in 25-degree weather.

    XBOX360 will be available at Best Buy tomorrow sunday.

    How did you come by this information? If it's true, I'm getting up early tomorrow. If I get there and it's a hoax, I'll be pissed.

    SBC To Take AT&T Name, after merger approval

    You're misinterpreting that. The name change is NOT a legally required event. The clause addresses only the RIGHTS to a brand without a MANDATE that those RIGHTS be used. That clause does not REQUIRE that Cingular be re-branded to AT&T Wireless. It just means that the RIGHTS to the brand...

    SBC To Take AT&T Name, after merger approval

    I'm not trying to say it. It is fact. Just because you choose not to believe it doesn't make it any less of a fact. SBC does NOT own BellSouth. Here is an article dated just one month ago speculating on the possibility of a merger between SBC and BellSouth. If SBC already owned BellSouth (as you...

    SBC To Take AT&T Name, after merger approval

    WRONG WRONG WRONG. Wrong in every way. No one get confused. Let's correct this right now. SBC did NOT buy AT&T Wireless. Cingular (a totally separate entity) bought AT&T Wireless. BellSouth is NOT the owner of SBC. BellSouth is NOT the owner of AT&T. AT&T/SBC and BellSouth are NOT the...

    SBC To Take AT&T Name, after merger approval

    That would be one of the most absurd things they could possibly do. Cingular, in my opinion, is a much better name for a wireless company than something as boring and unoriginal as AT&T Wireless. They have spent millions of dollars building the Cingular brand (and eliminating the AT&T Wireless...

    grr on ebay

    Of course, weren't you asking a lot of money for an empty box? I seem to remember the starting price being rather high. A misleading title and a high price (for an empty box) means you were asking for it. People on eBay don't always read thoroughly so you can't assume they're going to read the...

    My Dream Car

    I don't know why "take a guess" would be the reply either. Like you said, it's not obvious. I've never heard of a Mazda being anyone's dream car. That's definitely a first.
