did you say, bigger? The colors are taken from the GD logo. Thats why I chose those two colors :) Gotta stay branded -Mike

How 'bout this one? -Mike

I go through phases throughout the year. I'm a nut for christmas, so it makes sense to me :) -Mike

I have a personal organizer that I use to organize my stuff when I go out for stuff. I organized it using this, http://www.diyplanner.com/, system which is awesome! I sometimes use my digital organizer, but I prefer my paper one by far :) -Mike

I went out to K-mart for the game boy classic game for $20. I'm still wearing that one out :) -Mike

Syracuse NY Through blizzards and sleet storms and the gloom of night...etc...etc :) -Mike

mere speedbumps to the retail crack that is christmas..... -Mike

MOONBOOTS!! WOOT! Sorry, in the 80's, these were HAWT! and..er...yeah :) -Mike

Nice Marcster! -Mike

Now, if K.I.T.T's lil red flashy bits were incorporated into the site's design...that would be cool! -Mike

..new site is going to look like? I'm a design geek, so I gotta see what it looks like!!! :) -Mike

I work retail too. We're having our big sale in two week on Nov 19th. That is the best day of the year there! I absolutely love it that day, people all over the place. All of the great customers I help all year. That day, I'm able to talk to thrm and see what kinda cool stuff they do with what I sell them! I work at a hobby shop and we sell radio control products, model train stuff, and models of cars, planes, and other vehicles made of plastic! I wouldn't pass on that day ever! Hell, if I do get another job eventually, I'll always come back and work that day because it's such a great day there! -Mike

the fact I still have all of my family to celebrate with is definately the best. Material things are so...small My dad's 76 and has emphysema so he's the most important thing. He's here, and he's still in good shape and can participate in things. -Mike

How much do these subscriptions cost? -Mike

*smiles* I work at a hobby shop where the majority of what we sell are radio controlled vehicles. If you do not like the charger that came with those toys, check your local phone book for a hobby shop and check out the great chargers that are available for these things. There is one company in particular that I'd reccommend. Duratrax. They have two chargers that are particularly good for first timers: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXUF43&P=0 That one is great! It can to a lot of things that will help lengthen the life of the batteries you have like discharging, cycling and charging it at a rate that will not kill the battery. http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXD548&P=0 This one is it's super-simpler cousin. It is only good for a type of battery called Nickel Cadmium, or NiCD. So, please check your batteries before you purchase this so you can determine whether or not the battery will be ruined by it. If your battery is a Nickel Metal Hydride, or NiMH, it will be destroyed by using the improper charger. If you have any other questions, please ask! -Mike

Thanks guys! and Congratulations on the first ad! -Mike

Dude...if Angelina Jolie were coming over...I'd take her shoppin too! j/k! But anyway... If I were to see the deals were just as available online as they were in b&m stores, I'd stay home. Think of the stress free shopping you could get done! -Mike

I live in Syracuse NY...Snow should be arriving in the next few days Seriously, I've been to a few BFs where there was snow flittin around. Heck, I've trick or treated in two feet of snow before! :) -Mike P.S. for those who have troubles driving in snow. Don't worry about it, even here in syracuse people completely forget how to drive in it every year...so we have to deal with a rash of morons who get into accidents because of the white stuff :)

wish I had a costco here...syracuse seems to be a part of walmart... Anyhow, I will poke about in the sites listed and check out Baur and mayhaps even llbean.... Thanks to all! ya done did good again! -Mike

I think it was pretty mild last BF here. Mid to low 40's and blustery.... Then again, this is Syracuse...I'm surprised we haven't gotten a snowsquall yet... -Mike

awesome, I will check those places out. I've got a friend who works at a fabric shop here...I should have thought to check with her too... Thanks fellas! -Mike

I am brutal on my t-shirts and am sick of paying $8 for three of them that last me less than a month... Does anyone know of a site where I can purchase them in bulk and get good pricing on them? I've tried googling and I didn't come up with anything...so, welcome to my last resort! :) -Mike

About the only time I've gone out on a mission that day was to grab some deals on perfumes and some other things for my ex. That was a few years ago now and I got hooked on watching all the people go looney that morning, and I got hooked. The last few years I haven't really been needing anything for christmas for others. I'm one of those who gives everyone cash so they can go nutso shopping for themselves. -Mike
