    What type of tablet (non iPad) do you have?

    I have the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 and like it well enough. I do not like that it won't run Adobe Flash or have a better back camera with a flash. I got it on sale for $299 and for that price I can live with it's flaws. It has 2 cameras, wifi, SD slot and can control our TV if I set it up.

    Sleep

    At my house we have a saying..."Sleep is Precious". My Husband can't sleep well and is currently in a pattern of getting to bed around 5am and getting up in the mid afternoon. I go to bed around 1am and get up at 8AM to start my stock trading day. Over the years I have been in many sleep...

    Conan O'Brien Tonight Show debut

    I didn't watch it either. We have gotten into the habit of not watching either late night talk show and instead turning on the TV at 11:35 for the Craig Ferguson show. That guy is Crazy!

    Emily Ann

    I am so very sorry for your loss. We had to put down our Boarder Collie 3 weeks ago and I have tears in my eyes as I type this. I still haven't picked up all his things because I just can't bear to clear the house of his presence.

    Cable/TV question

    We quit cable and made an antenna that was shown on youtube. The antenna worked better than the $50 one we got from Radio Shack. DH and I watch more TV now than when we had cable, didn't know there were so many good shows on network TV. We have a couple more shows than Ziggy29 has because we are...

    Wal-Mart vs Target

    My local (Austin, TX)Wal-Mart and Target are across the highway from one another. Wal-Mart just added on the grocery part to the store and Target has some foods but not a real grocery side. So far our local HEB grocery seems to have better prices than Wal-Mart on most things I buy. I have...

    How many smokers out there?

    Mom and Dad both smoked. I hated road trips with the car filled with smoke and me throwing up in the back of the station wagon. Gee, you think the cloud of smoke I was riding in had anything to do with it? Dad quit in his 40's but Mom never could. Mom died at 62 of Tongue and throat cancer...

    Facebook

    I joined facebook a few days ago. Being a Navy Brat I don't have long time friends from school as I was always moving about. I also joined classmates and have had 10 people sign my "guestbook" and I don't remember 8 of them.

    Chase canceled my credit card

    Chase canceled my credit card because I hadn't used it for 13 months. I was going to do a low interest balance transfer with it and just hadn't gotten around to mailing in the check. My fault for procrastinating. The letter said they would be reporting this to the credit agencys so I guess it...

    The instructions on our new (in 2000) furnace/AC system said not to use the pleated filters. Said they caused to much strain on the system.

    If this makes one famous for a few minutes then I also qualify. Twenty some years I delivered Identical Triplets....and it wasn't by C-section or with fertility drugs either. Rare identical triplets go home from hospital - Kids and parenting - MSNBC.com
