I'd like to be in Arizona now, regardless of the politics. I'd just keep my mouth shut and enjoy the sunshine.

Any video game players on here?

You can find a cheap CD player for around $50. I have one, but it doesn't work now. It will play, but tends to stop in a middle of a track, making it essentially useless.

Yea, what I have now is cheap, which is why it broke and doesn't now do what I want it to do. I might have to look at something like the Bise or just something I can plug headphones in. I have Czerny exercise books with CDs, and I like to listen to what they are supposed to sound like. (I usually ma...

I use a CD player to listen to song I am trying to learn to play on piano. The one I have only works about half the time. It has to be a box with a speaker. Any recommendations for something cheap?

This one breaks my heart. David Carr was the media columnist for The New York Times. He was only 58.

um, I don't think gerbils are considered toys... well, maybe.

Happy Birthday, Jason!

Here is mine (so far): Attn Sir, I am Mr. Morris Taylor Financial Controller to Chief James Ibori, the former Executive Governor of Delta State, Without much ado I have to go straight to the point of contacting you.

Up around 190 now. Diet has gone to hell, but I am still exercising most everyday. Did three miles Tuesday and Wednesday on the YMCA treadmill (cold and lots of snow here). Plan on going to a "spinning" class at 10:30 today.
