How about what happened when devildeac cited three of his own posts?

Self-citation shouldn't count.

Yet ANOTHER contribution to the ArkieDukie impact factor. "



There was an ABBA song that had similar lyrics.

I just watched the end of Mamma Mia! I want to get some people together to watch the sing-a-long version.

My wife and one or both of my daughters will join you. I'll be in another county or state NOT singing along... :roll:

We filled up on free food, had a beer and ice cream and skeedaddled.

I walked 9 holes this afternoon. I chose to go to the pool instead of playing the back 9. A wise choice - my momma didn't raise no fool!

Man I wish I could grow a garden. Back yard all shade and I can't grow shit back there. Have you ever tried just growing herbs in just a pot? Stouid question I know, but thought I would as just the same

A few good beers for you and I bet we could get you to join in. I will have to provide some wine for the non-beer drinkers.

Now, go to BestBuy (on sale for $1199) or order online?

Ahh, the age old question, instant or delayed gratification? And how much is it worth?

It's $30 cheaper online at 17th Street Camera.

If he keeps up this pace, Sue, BONES and colchar are in his passing range today, too. ;)

Hey, I have an excuse for not posting lately. Don't I get some kind of free pass or something?

Yes - I have rosemary and mint growing in a pot now. Have also planted a strawberry pot with herbs in the past - thyme, oregano, etc. Mint in a pot is a good idea as it tends to spread rapidly - so if you plant it in the ground, you will be cutting it back/pulling it out forever.

1) For buying online, this place is an amazing online retailer: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/ - and if you're buying online, use Bing Cashback, and get an extra discount (http://www.bing.com/shopping/pages/stor ... FORM=R5FD1)

2) If there's a local camera shop (with reputable staff, good advice, etc.) and you think you may be wanting additional camera gear later, see if they are willing to match the Best Buy price. Some stores will do their best to match (or throw in an extra or two) because you were willing to give them a chance, and it's never a bad idea to support local retail, especially if you'll need their service/advice down the road.
