Props. I’ll check those out.

There's a website called experticity. You know how store employees get discounts on products? well, this is a company that worked with stores to make sure the employees knew about the products they sold (at least that's what I was told). So you sign up with them, watch a few vids or read some info and take a short quiz and you get discounts on the products. Tons of companies listed for all sorts of products. Jaybird is one of them. Do the stuff for the X3's and you can get a pair for 50% off. I think they were normally $149 or so at retail stores, I got mine for $60. Go take a look.

Just moved into my new place and it seems the only logical place to put my 60' TV is mounting it above the fireplace. I'm a little skeptical about doing so for obvious reasons but I don't see a better place for it. Any input?

If you're worried about the heat, don't. It won't hurt your TV.

What employer did you put down?

City of Fort Worth.

I think law enforcement was one of their targets. It isn't like they actually check though.

Were you able to get signed up?

No response yet. If approved, I'm supposed to receive a Group Code to enter before the shopping list is opened to me.

Not sure, it's been a while. But I would have thought you'd have heard something by now. I don't think it took that long for mine.

Probably slowed the process for them since they have never heard the name pdom and there not sure if it is tied to ISIS.

Not sure why but every time I log on here I got a virus notification. Just letting you all know.

Bought a new laptop the other day and it arrived today. It's a Dell with an i7 Intel Core processor, 8 GB of installed RAM, with a port to install 8 more, and a 2 TB harddrive. This thing is smoking fast compared to the 12 year old laptop I had before it.

Thank you for the notice, we'll look into it as soon as possible.

Do you have insight into why that would be happening, IT boy?

I think most HDs are solid state today.

While you're at it, see if you can figure out why this piece of shit goes through batteries like a meth whore's vibrator.

I replaced my HD recently with a SS HD. They are nice and absolutely silent. I still sometimes wait for that start up sound.

Hmmmmm. Never seen one of those.

Not really, but I don't deal with web applications.
