What did you do today...

[ofblong]

why cant people realize that its called BLACK FRIDAY because people tend to get trampled over and die ON THAT DAY. I had some dude tell me not to call it black friday cause someone died. WTF thats the reason it got called black friday in the first place. Idiot.....

Actually I hear it's called that because even with the sales the stores sell so much they go deep into the black (versus the red) on that day and make most of their yearly profits like that.
Either way, wait til the broadband slowdown on sites like Amazon on Cyber Monday. Ugh...

you could be right but I was always told it was cause of people dieing.

ofblong, wtf are they "procreating" smoking? $150+ for a single tire install?!?! Those 404's are $100 at MOST. I can see up to $75 for an install. $75 an hour isn't unheard of and they could very well have a 1 hour minimum charge.

There's no good deals this time around. Plus something better comes out a short time later for the same price. Besides with the economy in poor shape I'm sure retailers will have some awesome deals coming up soon which makes Black Friday moot.

And $250 for a rear tire... I get charged that for installation of two tires, tubes, balancing and rim maintenance which comes out to $200 at most.

Now time to wait for the Canon Powershot G10 to go down in price even more.

$200? That's "procreating" cheap. Even $250 is less than I paid per tire. Lucky SOB.

thats what they told me. and they charge $82 in labor. So ill just order the tire myself come feb take the tire off the bike myself and then take it in and have them put it on. cost me less that way plus I can prob get a pirreli or an avon for $100 (I know I saw the pirreli for $100) and pay less than what they want.

That's just for service, the tires were bought online for $200 both front and rear. The shop charges $75 per hour which comes out to and the tubes are a two for one deal (no more free tubes with increased prices everywhere).

Spent my day at the hospital getting an EEG. I didn't really expect this kind of a test:








Apparently the doc wanted to check for any seizures or what have you during my routine on a normal day. A couple of days ago I had a nice CT scan and need the results soon. Reason for the tests? I have been undergoing some weird physical feelings and I hope it's nothing serious, plus a follow up from an accident 13 years ago was definitely needed to make sure I'm still in working order.

In case you were wondering I am model #: 334-7 assembled in the year 1995. They had the technology and they rebuilt me. Also, Resistance is futile.

Oh yeah, I know kung-fu. I wish to be unplugged from the Matrix.

My head hurts...

1995 model?

Would these wierd physical feelings happen when a female enters radar range?

You're absolutely right resistance is futile.

1995? The weird feelings must be puberty.

Hey Blues, is that my recipe or is that Ollie Perry's recipe?
