Decided to try Apple Music. Was very happy that they have The Social Network soundtrack!

Looks great Al!

^Forgot about this one. I should finish off the season.

Ordered the Foam Sweet Foam 9" Queen size latex mattress with the following layers: Talalay Med, Dunlop Firm, Dunlop X-Firm They had an extra $400 off coupon for the holiday (making the mattress $1659) and said they would wait to ship it for a week. I'll have it shipped directly to the new place. http://www.foamsweetfoam.com/urban-green-–-queen-9″-or-full-9″.html I'm planning to get this foundation unless someone knows a better option locally (does Ikea have any decent foundation/frames). https://www.sleepez.com/catalog/product_info.php/cPath/3/products_id/101 I have a queen size frame but it only has 6 wheels. Do you think it is worth getting a frame with 9 wheels fro a queen bed with one person sleeping on it?

In still interested to know how much people like their Casper. Maybe I should just get it as a queen sized instead of the FSF since it is a lot cheaper. I'm mostly concerned with it being too soft and being smelly because of the foam (the last Tempurpedic pillow I bought I couldn't let in my room for a month because the smell would keep me awake and at that point Tim used it not me).

I am also I little worried about them ripping the encasement since it has Alpine Dust inside of it from when it was treated for bed bugs. I wouldn't want that stuff all over everything. Mostly, I would really like a new bed and if I move it, I'll probably end up sleeping on this bed for another year.

Those who liked their Casper, how is it holding up? Also, how smelly was it when you first got it? How did the Casper compare to the Contour Rhapsody in terms of firmness? I am thinking of getting a Casper (twin size) for a temporary solution while in an apartment (to have more room). It is pretty cheap. I would then get a queen bed from foamsweetfoam once I buy a house. I can put the twin casper in guest room once I buy a house. [I'm not going to pay to have my old mattress moved.]

Wish I had more meat eating friends to go with me... damn vegetarians/vegans/pescatarians.

Does the ipod touch's battery last longer than the iphone's or are they about the same? I suddenly just realized that the ipod touch and iphone have 128GB capacity which may mean that I don't need my ipod classic anymore.

I want brisket!

Doesn't it hurt to carry this in your back pocket?

I guess I should have read this post before now. Oh well, my team sucked last year so there probably wasn't anyone good.

This is getting really annoying. It keeps asking me to sign in. Is this happening to anyone else?

I often stick little pieces of paper or other random things in my wallet so I need it to be more standard. So no money clips, rubber bands, or ex machine-era stuff. I do like the machine-era bottle opener though.

Looking for a very thin/slim and simple wallet to carry in my back or front pocket. Any suggestions? Does anyone know anything about these? http://www.all-ett.com/

I keep getting logged out of HC (and HC isn't saving my password). Is this because of the software upgrade? It is happening on more than one computer.

I was under the impression that bleach degrades over time (we keep out house at 82 during the day when we are not home, during the warm months). Is the following information not correct? http://www.brainstuffshow.com/blog/does-chlorine-bleach-ever-expire-or-go-bad-important-in-emergency-situations/

The only problem may be that the bleach product is a few (maybe 6-8?) months old. I believe it loses potency over time. Guess I can get some new bleach tomorrow. I suppose people step in squirrel blood/intestines splatter all the time and don't die.

You know highrise living is sounding better every minute. I now wish I would have left it there until morning since I am now freaked about my shoes being contaminated (and I washed them with my bare hands after spraying them with Clorox cleaner with bleach (which is about 10:1 of water to bleach). It is probably fine, it just freaks me out. At least they were Crocs so they are pretty easy to spray down. Yes, Dusty, there many things that outweigh cockroaches: rats and raccoons to name two. Actually, cockroaches aren't all that bad in the grand scheme of things. I'm just tired of them being in my house.

Just picked up and disposed of dead roadkill (squirrel) in the street in front of my house (and then saturated the street with bleach). I was pretty careful to only tongs it with the tongs but I did have to walk close to it to get it so now I am soaking my shoes in bleach in the bathtub. That should take care of anything on the shoes, right? The last time there was a dead squirrel in the street, at least half of it got dragged onto my driveway. This way I know exactly where it has been. Why doesn't animal control work at night?

Sorry

Happy Birthday Jack!

Because of my mold problem, I am looking to get another air purifier. Right now I have the Winix Plasmawave but I am going to keep that in the room with mold and put the other one with in the room I sleep in. Any recommendations? The Winix is good but doesn't have activated carbon filters so I don't know if it is as good as some others. The mold specialist said that Honeywell makes good ones. Anyone tried those? What are the important qualities. I know that a good HEPA filter is the most important. Should UV sanitizer be avoided because of Ozone? Avoid ionizer (the Winix Plasmawave has this)? Are activated carbon filters a lot better than regular carbon filters?

I don't think anyone recommends having 100% in stocks when you are nearing retirement... you should slowly go more conservative as you get older. Real estate can also be very risky. I would guess that it might be even more risky. You can always have a percentage in real estate. I have about 10% of my retirement there.
