I say let her use them as long as you feel comfortable with it. I've tried doing what you're doing with my own family, and it really hasn't worked out all that well, but things are still holding together. Its really cool that you're doing this for people who really aren't your responsibility.

Mine was the original hot rod action figure. Once my brother came along, all my transformers either disappeared or were destroyed. That specific one, if I still had it in the original box would be worth a couple thousand.

Go to Meijer and you can get the KSC75's for $11 right now.

My favorite fantasy books are the Night Watch subset of Terry Pratchett's discworld. Its funny, the character's are inventive and the stories can be very interesting.

Hagen-Daz had a great cinnamon ice cream a while back, but my favorite current ice cream is really good butter pecan.

I could talk about my dreams here, but that would get me banned.

KSC75's if you don't mind reattaching the driver housing to the earclip all the time, and they're $11 at Meijer right now. Portapro-2's if you need something that'll last forever. They're $30 at circuit city.

Your best options are either a microdac or the optical output of an optoplay or creative mp3+ fed to a CI-Audio VDA-1. If you go with a microdac, I'd still get the optoplay or creative and see whether or not you prefer the optical out to the usb interface. I thought there was a slight...

My brother wants me to go with him to Barnes and Noble on Sunday so we can start forming a line. He's almost 18.

That thing looks a bit like my grandmother.

What did they use to catch it? A crane and steel wire? My grandfather caught one of the largest brown trout in Missouri in 1999, it was 18 lbs and 24 in. long.

Go to school full time year round, while working 30-40 hours a week. Then we can talk about lack of sleep.

The problem with breaking your big toe as opposed to the little one, is that you really don't have the option to say no to surgery. The big toe has a much bigger effect on balance and coordination than the others. I hope for your sake you just bruised the hell out of it.

Yeah, Alex Gonzales was the luckiest guy in the world when everybody focused their hate toward that fan instead of on his bonehead error.

Tuberoller, the last time the Sox had a team making a run for the world series, and a guy making a run for the triple crown, all of baseball quit shortly after the all star break. I get the chills every time I see the Sox win, how would baseball recover from a second strike? EDIT Yeah, it...

This is why I wish game designers would hurry up and write ports of big games for linux, then I'll be able to ditch windows and all of the hassles, like defragging and viruses, for good.

White Sox! You traitor. I always find it funny that when everyone talks about long stretches between world series wins they always forget the Sox. The last time the southsiders won was '17 the year before the other Sox team won.
