Your dad is trying to scare you out of it so he can buy it for himself. Don't fall for it.

Kelly Brook is posing for Playboy.  I think I'd rather have the dry erase HPOA, but it's a close call.

From wiki:

QuoteBrook made her full screen debut with a minor role in the film Sorted, where she can be seen involved in a lesbian scene

I like the cut of her jib

The fact that she gets nood in Piranha 3d isn't enough for me to see that POS.


Survivor Island is coming in tomorrow.  Complete coincidence SD.
I'm not from Philly but some say I'm blunt.

You can google her and find her getting boned in survival island. I recommend the live version, she has great tits.

The TV I have in my bedroom is terrible. One time after a thunderstorm and a power surge, the screen got farged and the top 1/4 of the picture is upside down and sideways. Watching things like a baseball game with the overlay at top is entirely impossible. Moving to a new apartment in a couple weeks, so I finally decided to spring for a new one. I had looked up some info, want to buy a legit brand and not one that fargs itself within 8 months. So now I'm pretty much limited to 22" and below if I want a real brand, I can't really afford to spend a lot and don't want to considering I don't use the bedroom TV all that much anyway. Go to Best Buy, checked out a few, find a Toshiba 19" HD with a built in DVD player for 270. Went to get that one, they're all gone, so they offer me the display model with $50 off. I figure I might as well. Take it home to set it up. All of the settings are real messed up, since they were set to whatever the store needed to be displayed along with all the others, tuned to whatever station, etc. farging impossible to figure out. Aside from this pain in the ass, basically all the buttons on the remote they gave me didn't work. So there are only a couple settings to begin with that I actually CAN change, all the else is locked in until I have a functioning remote. Instead of the hassle of buying a new remote (which I shouldn't have to do, but they're not going to give me another), taking forever to figure out all the proper settings for to hook up the TV only to pick it all up and do it all over again in 2 weeks, I just figure forget it, return it, buy a different one brand new. Between the hour I left the store and got home, I lost the receipt. I hardly ever lose things so this was just perfect. So I continue trying to set it up, I thought about throwing it off the roof and seeing if it would work then. Today I got an e-mail with another copy of the receipt. No idea why they sent it to me, but now I'll return that garbage and get a new one.

I changed "TV" to "Hooker" and the story still sucked.

Check their "open items" because you can usually get a pretty good deal there.  I just bought a new home theater system w/blu ray player and ipod/iphone dock for $250 and it sells new for $500.  I remember seeing a few tv's in their open item section for pennies on the dollar.  For $300 they had a 32" Sony that I considered buying but opted not to basically because I really don't need another tv right now. 

Might as well check out Wal Mart too.  Granted, that place is the devil but so is Best Buy.

QuoteCox doubts it is a mere coincidence that "the stratospheric increase in diagnosed learning and attention deficits" has correlated with "the advent of the electronic playground." When so many Americans meet the diagnostic criteria for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, it "is arguably no longer a disorder at all—it's just the way we are."
Is rjs gonna have to choke a bitch?

I'm going to Giants-Jets game tonight at the New Meadowlands tonight..I've yet to see the inside, but I'm sure at around 10PM, I'll have a list of reasons why it should not be hosting a Super Bowl.

You should break the stadium in right by punching a Giants fan in his (or her I guess) stupid face

Normally I enjoy the links you post, but this is the kind of article that's boilerplate for every generation. The vices change, but the fear and generalized blame remain the same.
