Riley: Oh, yeah. Sorry 'bout last time. Heard I missed out on some fun. Xander: Oh yeah, fun was had. Also frolic, merriment and near-death hijinks.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Our wings are not tired.

I'd read the fine print carefully Robin. They all use any excuse to dump the promo rate and charge crazy rates. I had a Discover card that had a zero rate until I neglected to make 2 purchases a month.

Just got home from watching Fantastic Four stuff with the kids. Was fun.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I hate when people use their cell as their primary phone and I want to just leave a message and not have it ring RIGHT THERE, especially when I know they can't answer, but don't know if the ringer is off.

Or something.

Sorry to worry anybody. Nothing went off. My "Hmphh" was merely annoyance as I thought there was little credibility to the bomb scare. Though admittedly, I work across the street from the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francicsco (which has about 1 billion dollars in cash in the basement) and 101 California (nearby) was the scene of an infamous (in SF anyway) shooting spree.

This is what text messaging is for.

I haven't text messaged in FOREVER. Huh.

Frankly, I rarely text, unless I am going to send a picture too. It takes me too long.

My PDA has an SMS option. Now I want to try it. Can you text across providers?

Yes. I could text you a picture right now if I wanted to. As long as your phone can receive, we can text it.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Robin, I have spent several years rolling debt onto new 0% cards each year. The month before the rate jacks, I get a new card, transfer teh remaining balance and cancel the first card. If you can't get a 0% card, I know there are websites where you can compare cards available. Also, if you don't want to get a new card, save all offers you get for a month or so and then call your current card company and tell them you are switching companies unless they match the offer.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Thanks, MsBelle, you cute thing.
