I'm still trying to figure this thing out. I will be taking a class at the IPAD store.
You are going to love it! Bud will have trouble ever getting to use it! Enjoy!

"We" got an iPad last year. The Rev. Lawgrad uses it ALL THE TIME. I never even get to see it.
A new iPad is my final weight loss goal.

I love my iPad. Current addiction: Angry Birds.

Does anyone else like the new sitcom "Suburgatory"? I think it's hilarious. As an added bonus, there's eye candy (Jeremy Sisto).

Speaking of TV, if you liked the Count of Monte Cristo, which I liked very much in high school, there's a show called Revenge right now that is pretty entertaining. Not as awesome as the CMC, but fun to see how a wronged girl grows up to wreak revenge on the hoity toity Hampton's elite.
Back episodes available on hulu currently, however, they only hold 5 episodes at a time, so I think the pilot may or may not be available anymore.

Oh goodness... Too many to list.... A classic Firebird needs classic rock.
Allmans: Blue Sky, heck just play all of Eat a Peach and Live at Fillmore
Skynyrd: Freebird (too obvious but so what)
Stones: Can't You Hear Me Knockin', Midnight Rambler
CCR: Fortunate Son, Penthouse Pauper, Suzy Q
Springsteen: Cadillac Ranch, Born To Run
That's pretty much the direction I would go.
If Freebird starts playing as I pull out of the church parking lot, I can make it almost all the way home before it is over.
Life is good!

Okay; here we go. Cards to bat, game tied, chance to win. I think all the big hitters were up in the last inning, though.
Please win now, Cards.

Would love for the hometown boy, Freese, to hit it out of the park.

He even got the game winning ball back from the fan that grabbed it. Without having to pay any money.

It wouldn't load at all for me at home the last couple days. Of course, now I'm at my parents house in AZ and it seems to be working better. If still a little bit slow.

If freebird starts playing while I am in
any parking lot, I won't even make it out of said parking lot without changing the channel or turning off the radio. Holy moley, I loathe that song.
But the rest of the list is pretty good. Add L.A. Woman and/or Love Her Madly and Thunder Road.
