Brother In Arms,

Here's what I've learned over the course of time:

Sell what you can for what you can get - just get rid of the "junk" and be happy you're rid of it.

Get a general idea of...

Go the Nutmeggers! :) I heard that this is the longest sleet event that's been recorded...12+ hours straight. Fun in CT!

Nooo!! Don't eat what's been poisoned! :eek: "Learn to swim...!"

Shoreline CT: Got about 2 inches of snow last night and it's snowing right now. 32 degrees. It's supposed to turn into a slushy mix for the next 24 hours. You folks up north are supposed to get a...

It would seem like there are lots of opportunities to access power, if not by USB, but by regular power outlets along the way. I'm thinking hostels, motels, perhaps some friendly resaturants or...

Ditto all of that Qicktoez! It's your life - make the most of it! I agree that most people are afraid of or disapproving of what they don't know or deem to be "abnormal". Forget 'em! Best of...

Right on Jack!

"You are the Duke of New York! You are A #1!!"

This is a time where that big Bowie/Rambo knife that everyone says to leave at home could prove useful. Just pull a Crocodile Dundee on their a**! :p

I second all of that. Wake up, walk outside, look at the sky. Better than any forecast you'll get.

Isn't it funny how changing the clock by one hour can cause widespread panic and confusion? It's not like DST is a new concept. Y2K anyone?! :eek:

Actually, they round down as well as up. On the other hand, the Aussies are a lot more laid back and you're probably right, everything here would be rounded up! Anyway, back to sunlight...

Quit my full-time job October 13. Now working part-time until March 23. Head to Atlanta on the 29th! :banana

In Australia, they have $1 and $2 coins - very small. They also round everything to the nearest $0.05. Now THERE's an idea! Do away with the stupid penny!

The Twinkie was invented on April 6, 1930 by bakery manager James Dewar, making thrifty use of shortcake pans that were used only during the strawberry season...Though Continental Foods has never...

I'm sure that would be true in the moment, but not over time. Ever see Supersize Me?



Blech! :p But, to each her/his own!

My dad worked for Genral Foods for many years. He got to see factories all over the world and came back with some interesting (and usually scary) stories. For example, Twinkies and other such snack...

Gabba Gabba Hey! Hey Ho Let's Go! :D

I've seen 4GB used Nano's for $150-$200 (for "refurbished" ones). I've also seen one advertised "Like New" for $165 on Amazon.

All ipods have internal batteries and thus need to be recharged from...

You can get an ipod Nano in 2, 4 or 8 GB. They are 3.5 inches long and 1.6 inches wide and weight 1.6 oz.

Apparently, yes, you do. Better safe than sorry - you can always ship stuff home if you find that you don't need them. I'm leaving on March 31 and I'll have long johns and nylon hiking pants with...

You can watch music videos and things like that, but depending on how much memory you have and want to use, yes, you can watch tv shows.



Also, some of the memory space, no matter how much it...

Choosing the "right" ipod is a matter of personal preference. How much memory do you want? Do you want video & photo capabilities? I have a 30 gig ipod video. It has about 12,000 songs in it and...

Thanx Sliderule!
