So the power cord burnt up on the Roomba. I emailed the customer service and they're "out of power cords". Huh?! What?!

Even if that's the case (and I believe it probably is), why not just go grab a defective unit or one set to ship & part it out? That's not terribly uncommon and it's great customer service. Otherwise, I'm likely to start a Roomba Doomba watch on my blog and mention every single day how iRobot can't help me.

Merrin & I have been addicted to ABC's Lost since day one. But here are some answers/spoilers/questions that I've been dying to find out:

-Transcripts of the whispers in the jungle
-Arial view of the original "crash" set in Hawaii
-Complete transcripts of the episodes

It's not easy to think of timely, smart marketing campaigns. The (Hooters) Gates is absolute gold.

If your car is in need a good fluid change, check out the coupon section over at City Garage. I like City Garage and have used them a bunch in the past. They treat you fairly. Recently, I've been using the Goodyear store just up the street for most of my service. I had some tire work done way back when & they're just really good guys with great service. They agreed to tinker with their pricing and match the coupons.

So the time has come to put Y'allBlog out of it's misery. It was fun for a while, and then it wasn't - so unplugging it is the right think to do. I think Y'allBlog will be back one day (perhaps as a D/FW aggregate blog), but I'm just tapped right now.

I think I'm starting to put two & two together. 40% of video game players are ladies. You don't say….

If you're thinking of selling something on eBay, keep this in mind.

Dodge is looking for The Ultimate Guy. Three important criteria - tools, toys, and trucks. I'm thinking Sir Coopalot.

I know I said I was going to go all "blog crazy", but somehow it's been a week and…not so much. Work is no longer "too fast" for me, but it's not a real blogger's delight just yet, either.

That and I'm working on getting my shaft gripped.

The new Miata is due out next year, based on the new RX-8. It's longer, stronger, and makes me wanna ponder getting one. Mmmmmiata!

Someone is playing hookey today. I suppose he's just too overcome with celebrating Lincoln, Washington, et al. Me? I'm stuck @ work trying to earn a Lincoln or two.
