Me too!!!! Same error message, and same welcome message too!!!That's just nuts.

Does anybody know time Staples opens? What's their procedure? My aunt will be in line for BB, and if Staples is near, she wants to try shopping in both places. Do you think it would be possible?

Last year, I was in Orlando for BF. I tried to go to Best Buy at 8:30 PM, and there was already a line, enough for me not to get the laptops. So I went to Walmart, and since it's a 24-hr store, there was no line, I was able to start one, and I was the first to get the computers. So well.... if you want to get anything at Best Buy, I'd say get there at 8PM.

The problem is that COMPUSA is usually full of rebates, right?

I'm looking forward to see the COMPUSA ad... I won't be able to be there on BF, and my aunt will go with her friend. But we need 3 laptops... So maybe if COMPUSA opens at midnight and if they have a laptop for a similar price, my aunt can leave her friend in line at BB, go to CUSA, get the laptop and go back to BB before 4 AM. Or maybe she can get it on Wednesday, if they have a good deal ($399 or something). Do you guys think that would work?

Could someone please post the specs for this PC? My aunt is dying for it, and bothering the hell out of me because of that........

Polar Express? I didn't know there was one.... What is it, exactly?

Oh, my!! Gotta see this commercial! It sounds so cool! I'll try to find it at youtube.

It was very popular here in Brazil. They even had the trucks going around the city (Rio de Janeiro), with the lights and music and all, to promote Coke during the Christmas season. I was working once and I heard the music, and rushed to the window to see the trucks! It was just awesome. They also had some buses wrapped in red with Coke and Santa, and the lights. That was like.... 5 years ago.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... these potatoes sound delicious...................................

Oh, I'm sorry, Pam..... It was kinda stupid of me... Well, it's a Coke commercial, there's a huge line of trucks going through the cities, and the lights turn on when the trucks pass. It's just soooooooooo beautiful....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KhIj_hB7Kg This is my favorite Christmas commercial ever! I was aired here in Brazil too, with the song translated to Portuguese.

That's funny!! Kids go back to school here in March, which is the end of summer. Is October/November the beginning of the school year there, or just a return from the summer vacations? And oh..... I just LOVE the holiday season!!!! Just can't wait to arrive there in the US, to enjoy the Christmas chill, light displays, and all. But I'm already listening to Xmas music on my MP3 player (if I play it out loud, my family is gonna send me to a nut house!!)

Oh, yeah.... I had hashbrowns the last time I went to the USA... now I remember.... at Burger King, for breakfast.

Love Me Chou Chou does. But I can't find it either....

Hi, everyone! I'm having some trouble in choosing a doll for my 3-year-old daughter.... In the other thread I started, I was suggested Baby Born, and Baby Annabell. My daughter saw the two commercials online and just loved Annabell because she moves her face when she sucks the bottle and pacifier. I emailed zapf about it. But well, I've just received their reply: they aren't making Annabell anymore!!! So, I guess by the time I get to the USA, it's gonna be sold out. Couldn't find it online either. Well, my question is: is there any other doll that moves her face when she sucks the bottle???? My daughter has already asked Santa for that...

Thanks a lot, Pam!!! But well.... what exactly is the "hashbrown" in that casserole? LOL Oh, and by the way... I have replied to your post in the "I'm back" thread... check it out!

Sorry for the stupid foreigner questions, but... What kind of ham is that? Not the regular one, we put in the sandwich, right? And... what's "hashbrown"?

Awwww.. that's so cute... could you post some pictures?

My Mickey Mouse tree topper. Just love it!!!

Well, there's no Thanksgiving down here, but thanks to some people from these forums that sent me some recipes... I'll be cooking myself a little Thanksgiving dinner this year for the first time!!!!!

Yay!!!! It's so close!!!!!!!!

You know what's funny? People down here say American people are cold and snobbish. (which I TOTALLY DISAGREE) But if you listen to Christmas songs here, or cover your house with lights, they say you're childish and ridiculous. They are a bunch of Scrooges... and they don't even know who Scrooge is.

Oh, yeah. I do my best to get into the holiday chill down here. They tried to come up with a Brazilian tropical version of Santa, but it didn't work. Kids didn't believe him! hahahaha So, those poor guys who work as Santa at the malls have to melt inside those suits, and sometimes (poor guys) under a 40ºC sun. And nope... no lights down here, only at some shopping malls. But nobody puts up lights all over their houses, only the ones who have balconies, and it's just a little light trim around it. I gotta move to the US!

There's a Christmas Cake recipe that my grandmother learned with her mom. My mom never wanted to learn it, so grandma taught me. Grandma died a couple of years ago, so now I'm the only one in the family that knows how to make it. It's pretty easy, but I've got the official Christmas Cake Maker position!!!!
