Early ,'Objects In Space'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
My brain, let me show you it: following a link to some luggage (because I continue to try to decide what the perfect luggage is) to Lands End, I decide it is not perfect, but end up thinking "Wait, what's that other place?? The one that is not Land's End, but not J Crew? With the stuff??"
Can anyone guess where my brain was trying to go? (I eventually figured it out)
LL Bean?
Ding! Yes. LL Bean was it. It took me a while to get to there in my brain though. I almost had to come here and ask (good to know someone could have helped!)
They do not have the perfect luggage for me, though. As far as I can tell.
I always confuse LL Bean and Land's End. I end up visiting both websites.
Drew and I are madly in love with our Eagle Creek Hovercraft bags, but they aren't cheap. Last forever, though, and SO friggin' lightweight.
Oh, Connie, that sucks. I hope things take a turn for the better.
I've been struggling with the car thing. CarMax has some good cars that are the kind I want and in my price range. Mostly, for some reason, they're in Milwaukee, so I may have my sister go test drive. But the Evanston place has some newer ones that are VW certifed (so you get 2 yrs/24k warranty) for a couple of grand more so I'm pretty strongly leaning that direction.
Hil, we've been looking at a lot of cars - and so many of the new ones have tiny windows and are just hard to see out of . You might want to look at the Honda Fit, as well -- small , tons of space for stuff , and lots of windows.
My roommate just wanted to ask me something kind of personal. ...he was concerned about the possible comfort level of the noise of using a riding crop in the middle of the day.
I believe this is contraindicated if there's an actual horse involved.
Hil, I'd find out if there's someone in town who can service a Mini. You don't want to have to have one towed a hundred miles. I am of the if-anything-can-go-wrong-it-will school of car ownership.
Our credit union has a way to buy cars -- and there are people that will do the searching fo r you . I'd have to say go with a personal recommendation if you use a autobuyer
I'll also put in a plug for the Nissan Versa.
